* Are Satanists Evil?* Meriam-Webster's Definitions:* morally reprehensible : SINFUL, WICKED* arising from actual or imputed bad character or conduct* causing discomfort or repulsion : OFFENSIVE* DISAGREEABLE* causing harm : PERNICIOUS* marked by misfortune : UNLUCKY* The Concept of Evilhttps://plato.stanford.edu/entries/concept-evil/* there are at least two concepts of evil: a broad concept and a narrow concept* The broad concept picks out any bad state of affairs, wrongful action, or character flaw.divided into two categories: natural evil and moral evil.* Natural evils are bad states of affairs which do not result from the intentions or negligence of moral agents.* moral evils do result from the intentions or negligence of moral agents.* the narrow concept of evil picks out only the most morally despicable sorts of actions, characters, events, etc.* Since the narrow concept of evil involves moral condemnation, it is appropriately ascribed only to moral agents and their actions.* Evil in this narrower sense is more often meant when the term ‘evil’ is used in contemporary moral, political, and legal contexts.* Nietzsche argues that the concept of evil arose from the negative emotions of envy, hatred, and resentment. He contends that the powerless and weak created the concept of evil to take revenge against their oppressors. * The concepts of good and evil contribute to an unhealthy view of life which judges relief from suffering as more valuable than creative self-expression and accomplishment.* For this reason Nietzsche believes that we should seek to move beyond judgements of good and evil* Satanic Definition:* “...anything resulting in physical or mental gratification was defined as ‘evil’—thus assuring a lifetime of unwarranted guilt for everyone! So, if ‘evil’ they have named us, evil we are—and so what! The Satanic Age is upon us! Why not take advantage of it and LIVE!*” *(evil reversed)‒Hell, The Devil, And How To Sell Your Soul; The Satanic Bible p.55; Anton Szandor LaVey * What is the nature of evil?* Perspective: good is what you like, bad is what you don’t like* Because we argue you can’t change the definition of satanism as codified by Anton Szandor LaVey, can we redefine evil?* What does it mean to be evil?* To act in your own self interest. Sometimes others can benefit, sometimes they don’t.* Is evil a bad thing?* It is necessary for survival. Therefore, how can it be a bad thing?* It is a reaction others have to your actions, not the result or motivations of your actions.
