1. The Devil's Advocate

* I Summon The Devil* Asmodeus, Satan, Kali, Lucifer, Balial, Lilith and Leviathan are real, and I receive gifts from them in the ritual chamber* There seems to be some confusion over Greater Magic, even to this day, and the true magic is how each Satanist that chooses to practice Greater Magic interprets it differently.* When I am in the chamber, I am literally opening the gates of hell. Calling out to my infernal brothers and sisters to join me in the chamber.* To me it is very much like when the cenobites are summoned in Hellraiser. I call them, they come.* Though they are not at my back and call.* I know them to have an existence separate from my desires. When and IF they decide to assist me, they do. When they are unable, they do not. It’s that simple. Like a friend who may be able to help one day and not another.* I have a reciprocal relationship with them. I give them strength through my real world achievements as a Satanist, and they grant me power to manipulate the world.* Calling the Infernal Names is not a step in a ritual. It’s the reconnection of friends I made a pact with.Friends that accepted me as one of their own, just as much as I accepted them as one of my own.* I am part of a tradition that goes back to time immemorial of man connecting with ancient wisdom. * They grant me their secrets so that they can hold sway over this world through my actions. I do, hence, they do.* That is Greater Magic to me. That is what it means to be a Satanist to me. * I didn't have to sell my soul, they wanted me to stand with them at the altar, not be a sacrifice upon it.* Because of my real world actions, because of my successes, because of who I am. A man of value. A Satanist.

* 'Sue if you must': Lincoln Project rejects threat over Kushner and Ivanka billboards* https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/oct/25/lincoln-project-jared-kushner-ivanka-trump-billboards* The Lincoln Project “will not be intimidated by empty bluster”, a lawyer for the group wrote late on Saturday, in response to a threat from an attorney for Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner over two billboards put up in Times Square.* “Sue if you must,” Matthew Sanderson said.* The New York City billboards show the president’s daughter and her husband, both senior White House advisers, displaying apparent indifference to public suffering under Covid-19.* Kushner is shown next to the quote “[New Yorkers] are going to suffer and that’s their problem”, above a line of body bags. Trump is shown gesturing, with a smile, to statistics for how many New Yorkers and Americans as a whole have died.* According to Johns Hopkins University, more than 8.5m coronavirus cases have been recorded across the US and more than 224,000 have died. Case numbers are at record daily levels and one study has predicted 500,000 deaths by February. New York was hit hard at the pandemic’s outset.* The Lincoln Project is a group of former Republican consultants who have made it their mission to attack Donald Trump and support Joe Biden.* On Friday, Marc Kasowitz, an attorney who has represented the president against allegations of fraud and sexual assault, wrote to the Lincoln Project, demanding the “false, malicious and defamatory” ads be removed,
