Soon April will be upon us…it cannot come too soon for me, nor can May. All of a sudden time is at a stand-still. The past few days have just crawled by. It seems like it will take forever to get to finals and get this semester over. I like all my classes, but I’m just getting tired of them, I guess. I want a change.
I was looking around on Prodigy today and it was interesting reading about self-professing vampires, Satanists and a guy who claimed to have an alien in his basement. It was all intriguing, and very amusing. An interesting thing I noticed about most of the “vampires” though…none were subscribers…all ID codes ended with B, or C, even E. So they’re still living at home (not that I can knock that), probably high school age and just doing this to get attention. I’m sure of it with one girl. Everytime someone asks her a question about her age or her parent’s knowledge (or lack of) concerning her “vampirism” she always responds, “What do you mean?” or “Why?” That to me is saying, “You think I’m weird, strange and bizzare, possibly sick, and you wonder if my parents know about it.” I don’t guess that really explains it, but there’s just something in how she asks the questions, as if all she’s wanted was someone to inquire about her beliefs. I’ve thought about saying something to that effect, but I figured it would be useless and sound a bit closed-minded. I must admit, though, when it comes to “vampires” I am a bit cynical about their existence. If people do exist that have a craving for blood I’m sure it’s psychological and not physical. When I’ve bit my tongue or something like that I’ve tasted my own blood and it doesn’t taste too appetizing. Someone said that there’s scientific evidence that healthy human blood is better for you than any kind of food. Well, of course this individual didn’t give any sort of documentation. Makes me wonder, if it’s so good, why not drink your own blood? Another, more disgusting thing is why not suck on a used tampon? It’s a disgusting thought, but it would seem to be the most “nutritious” blood in the body, seeing as what it was intended for. I think they’re all just a bunch of teenagers trying to be different and original, desperately seeking attention. Same with the guy who claimed to have an alien in his basement. Of course there’s no way to prove that he ever had such a thing because he blew it away with his big, phallic 44 magnum.
Another interesting thing from Prodigy is a Satanic ritual that Scott Lewis (who himself is a “C”) described. I’ll just type the whole thing in here…
For this ritual, you will need; your altar with your black altar cloth, a piece of typing paper with a black inverted cross drawn on it, and either black or red candles…
Tape the inverted cross on your wall behind the altar. Place three candles on your alter; one on the left of the cross, one on the right of the cross and one just below it. With the candles lit, you are ready to begin. You will perform this ritual nude (I do almost ALL of mine nude). Begin by bowing to the south, then to the east, then to the north and finally to the west, repeating “Natas Liah” each time. Later, you will invoke different names at each point, but since Satan is the supreme ruler, it is not really wrong to invoke him at all points, as the kings of these respective points bow to him also.
Now, recite the lord’s prayer backwards, that was part of your first lesson, I believe. Recite this while facing south. Then repeat the bows to the four points and when you finish, lie down on the floor. Now, call to mind the most lustful idea you can imagine, and enjoy your lustful thoughts. End with this prayer while facing south:
My lord Satan,
You are the supreme Evil,
You are the supreme power,
I love and adore you above all,
You are my master.
SO MOTE IT BE
Blow out the right candle, then the center one, and finally the left.
“Well, isn’t that special?” Well, let’s take a look at the Christian images in there, shall we? First of all, we have the inverted cross, something about which I’ve always wanted to ask him. Secondly, we have the reversal of the Lord’s Prayer (I wonder what that’s supposed to accomplish). Lastly, there’s the play on the Trinity with the three candles. Of course there are more subtle Christian influences…such as the idea of lust being evil, therefore pleasing to Satan. I realize that those who worship Set-hem may be worshipping a completely different deity with no connection whatsoever to Christianity. However, with his constant references to sin and other such strong Christian influences I find it difficult to believe that Scott Lewis is much more than a rebellious individual who’s had a bad experience with Christianity (which is not difficult to experience these days) and is just doing all this as sort of a game with himself. To anger his protestant parents he’s gone a step beyond atheism in an attempt to anger them and said, “Hey, I’ll ‘worship’ the very entity that they call evil.”
