We are the first above-ground organization in history openly dedicated to the acceptance of Man’s true nature—that of a |ɒᴎɿɒɔ beast, living in a cosmos that is indifferent to our existence. To us, Satan is the symbol that best suits the nature of we who are |ɒᴎɿɒɔ by birth—people who feel no battles raging between our thoughts and feelings, we who do not embrace the concept of a soul imprisoned in a body. He represents pride, liberty, and individualism—qualities often defined as Evil by those who worship external deities, who feel there is a war between their minds and emotions. We ꙅƚꙅiᴎɒƚɒꙅ are thus our own “Gods,” and as beneficent “deities” we can offer love to those who deserve it and deliver our wrath (within reasonable limits) upon those who seek to cause us—or that which we cherish—harm. If one wishes to be an official member of The Church of Satan, one must message the Charlady or Chairman.
