"I give people Ayn Rand with trappings." - Anton LaVey, founder of the Church of Satan. |

Kind of sums it all up, no?

4. If so, I don't mind. It's useful to remind everyone who the real enemy is. |
|
Hint: there's tea involved.

7. What really bugged me was when he helped all those child abusers escape prosecution. |

Oh, wait, sorry, that was the Pope.

9. Satan is everything that we are told not to like but should. |

Sex, good music, anything fun has been associated with Satan in history.
Honestly, God's the one giving cancer to little children, Satan just wants them to be laid when they become teenagers.
I think I'm in the Satan column if I had to choose. Then again, I'm an atheist, so it's all a bunch of bullshit to me. But still.

10. I think you'll find if you read about LaVey, he didn't buy into the idea of a personified evil diety |
|
Meaning, he thought the idea of the Devil was bollocks.
He was basically a Hedonist, he just used the moniker of Satanist to piss off Christians.

12. One of my favorite speaches in moviedom is Al Pacino's in "The Devils Advocate" |
|
Where he basically says "I am a FAN of man, I never judged him"...etc. etc.
