that's ironically closer to the truth than I would have guessed
In my experience, souls can be sold
But again, in my beliefs, Satan is not a real entity
most satanists I've talked to just think baphomet is the literal underground red devil with a pitchfork
Religion in itself
@Shane thats the issue. They use it as a symbol cuz they think theyre pissing off christians while using a green man/pan archetypr
Soul, sold
Soldier
actually baphomet is pretty close to a green man archetype
it's just representative of a specifically atziluthic influence coming into that
Is a retarded concept
Baphomet IS a green man archetypr
I didn't say they were the perfect form of satanism, just the best one thats taken seriously
I thought you were arguing against that, my bad
misread
but yeah it is
has different connotations than the green man, but they're roughly similar
Words are keys
Baphomet is pan and by extension the green man or inanna
Ishtar
right but each of those while being representative of very similar forces or currents are not entirely the same thing
Satanic Temple> (Laveyan) Church of Satan > Whatever satan the edgy pagans and wiccans pretend they talk to > Just randomly killing animals as sacrifices > Schizo satanism> Polar anti-christian satanism
the way that babalon and barbelo are very similar but not the same at all
dont bring my fucking gods into this
Leave em alone
in terms of effect or symbology
Using baphomet to piss off christians is a moot point cuz christians use baphomet all the time
that is accurate
“My”
yeah
The Satanic Temple's target for their trolling is the conservative mid-west and southern US
Whom baphomet scares the shit out of
I approve of public baphomet statues regardless of the reason that they are going up
Also to refer to pan as a god he needs to be all powerful which hes not hes more like a saint if anything
^
If for no other reason than public baphomet statues are really fucking funny
Big old goat tiddies in the town square bby
Satanic temple lawyers>>>>
I wanna make one in my town
Super catholic n shit
