I read everything on the Church of Satan website, including ALL of
the links.
I read everything on the First Church of Satan website including ALL
of the links.
I read everything on the Order of Nine Angles website.
I read everything on the Church Lucifer website, all of Nate Leved's
writings, everything he wrote on "Satan's Playground" "Sermons of
Lucifer" and everything posted on the Black Roses e-group.
I read everything on the Church of Lucifer's website (this one is
different than Church Lucifer).
I read everything on the Temple of Set website.
I read everything on the Luciferian Liberation Front website.
I read nearly all of the grimiores- Key of Solomon, Grand Grimiore,
etc.
I studied the Goetia in depth.
I studied everything I could about the Yezidi Devil worshippers of
Iraq.
I read all of the "classics" related to Satan- Paradise Lost, Faust,
Dante's Inferno and others.
In addition, when I was new, I read everything I possibly could on
any Satanic websites I could find.
I also have a strong background in atheism, , having read ALL of
Dr. Madalyn Murray O'Hair's writings (I think very highly of this
woman), and many other books, journals and writings from American
Atheist. This has helped me combat Christianity as most of these expose Christianity for what it really is.
In spite of my low income, every available penny I had, I bought
more books with so I could learn more about Satanism and the occult.
My days were spent in meditation, and study. I also read everything I could on the occult that was available in the public library. By spring of 2002, I was moderating the Black Roses e-group
for a time as the owner had other business to take care of. Any
time anyone planned a ritual, regardless of how tired I was or what
I had to do, I participated. In March of 2002, a ritual was
performed against the Catholic Church which resulted in the pedophilia
scandals being exposed all over the place. I pride myself in my taking part.
That same month, I opened my Joy of Satan website. I named it 'Joy of Satan' because this was in confronting all of the horror and gore being plastered all over the internet in those days concerning Satan. I had nothing but positive experiences and good feelings concerning Satan and his Demons. Any positive information about Satan at that time was severely limited and christians had control as usual, but gladly, not any more.
I am open regarding the fact I had no prior computer training at that time, no car to use the PC's at the better suburban libraries- the public PCs in the libraries within the city had a short time limit, I knew nothing about HTML, downloading, uploading or anything. I bought books about html and learned by myself, for Satan. I had WebTV back then.
For nearly everything important in my life, I have been self taught.
I have spent hundreds and hundreds of hours in public libraries. I worked
on my website day and night, wrote sermons, and articles whenever I wasn't working on my full time job.
I prayed daily to Satan, and did weekly formal rituals. I listened to
LaVey's "Satanic Mass" CD many times and read any available
publications from CoS- the Cloven Hoof, Not Like Most, The Black
Flame- to learn everything I could about Satanism, even though I no
longer agreed with CoS stances on things. Even on my job, I made
sure anything that could be recycled was placed in the recycle bin
as showing respect for the earth is showing respect to Satan.
May of 2002, the owner closed the Black Roses e-group. I
immediately went to yahoo groups (he gave everyone a 24 hour notice)
and opened Joy of Satan e-group. I invited everyone who wanted to
join and started out with under 20 members. I had to be responsible and get
on-line every day, as I do now.
