Satanism: a proper way of life? [Spirituality & Religion]

Most modern religions reject all things pagan and wiped out most traces of pagan gods and rituals, then replaced it with modern religions like Christianity and Islam. They aren’t very accepting of science either.

I read about some pre Christian societies such as the Celts, Picts and Norse and even the odd fact or two from ancient societies in the south americas, especially the mythologies from the ancient side of mankind, they all had a pantheon of gods and goddess to worship back in the day.

From what I heard of Satanism is that they’re more of a knowledge seeking people with an interest to supporting scientific advancements as well as encouraging others to think for themselves and not be led under false pretences.

Considering all things primal, Satanism and Paganism are the two practiseim more interested in compared to all the drama of modern religions. In my opinion.

I always liked the 7 Satanic tenets better than the 10 Commandments anyway..

THERE ARE SEVEN FUNDAMENTAL TENETS.
* One should strive to act with compassion and empathy towards all creatures in accordance with reason.

* The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

* One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

* The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.

* Beliefs should conform to our best scientific understanding of the world. We should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit our beliefs.

* People are fallible. If we make a mistake, we should do our best to rectify it and remediate any harm that may have been caused.

Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

@Pherick That all makes a lot of sense. If we lived by those rules we'd all be happier.
