Satanists claim not to believe in Satan or God. They are materialists and atheists. I don't know how there can be such a think as a Satanic church when Satanists don't believe in the existence of Satan.
Satan is the god of the earth, power given to him by the Christian God. It would make sense then to worship the material things of the earth. This is how they sell it these day's. I am quite sure the leaders know what theyre doing. Anyone with half a brain would realise they would be doomed if they worshipped satan. To believe in Satan as we know it, would be to also believe in the Christian god. So they spin it in a different way.
There are a lot of religions or things based upon the existing Christian lore. There are things like Satanism, and the Goetia, which was actually created by some cardinals in the Roman Empire, or jews.
Honestly I don't really understand most of the points some of these people are getting across that identify as satanists, it's almost just kind of like saying "I'm an anarchist" and yet they do things like go to walmart, and such.
I agree with this statement, there's a lot of information out there, but it's not what's inside all the time.
I definitely believe it's misdirection and manipulation, especially with all these spirit science nonsense that crops up all the time, kind of in-line with homeopathy remedies, a pentagram drawn in the sand isn't necessarily a higher calling, or studying and practicing a different set of gods/pantheon/etc isn't always the answer.

Its all a misdirection or a manipulation on uneducated people. Like scientology. Anything to keep people from finding peace or truth.
