One of the keys to success is an unflinching belief that there are no rules. Anyone who's ever succeeded has gone on that premise not buying established procedures, business or otherwise. The naysayers are inevitably left behind amid shouts of 'it cannot be done' and should not be done'.

Yeah, well, I'm crazy, but I'm not stupid, hopefully. And I think we're all a bit crazy if we do anything that's deviant. I've studied a great deal on deviance and aberrant behavior. Most of the interesting people I've ever met have been deviant in one form or another.

Satanism is not a white light religion it is a religion of the flesh, the mundane, the carnal - all of which are ruled by Satan, the personification of the Left Hand Path.

ALL religions of a spiritual nature are inventions of man. He has created an entire system of gods with nothing more than his carnal brain. Just because he has an ego, and cannot accept it, he has to externalize it into some great spiritual device which he calls God.
