The Voice of Satanism

Public Statement from the Temples of Satan and Church of Theistic Satanism
Copyright 2012 Flagship Media Release.

Recently “Failed Artist” Allison (Sin) Jones and Pope Fraize ( a fake name) along with (former Reverend)James Nicholson an “an alleged Child Molester and Social Security Fraudster” released information challenging the validity of the Temples of Satan Clergy Documentation, as we have moved toward a new Church, we have not ended the current Church, the Documentation is valid despite the claims of people who are ill informed about business matters, and I.R.S. Documentation, we remain the Purity and Excellence in Theistic Satanism, and continue operations legal and compliant.

We would of course not release any information required to perform a search to any stranger or person not connected to the Church itself, and the Church is acting as a subsidiarity and can under its I.R.S. Compliance Ordain.
We have provided a EIN Number to those parties which are part of the Temples of Satan.
But due to security hazards associated with releasing a number similar to a Social Security Number we are currently only informing membership which a legible photo will appear in the March Newsletter.

While we did apply and were accepted for a 501 3 C we declined in pursuit of a Sole Church System which offered better flexibility and offered up a more robust platform to do business as a Church in today’s ever changing world.
The words of this transaction were misrepresented by our Founder Tom Erik Raspotnik, something that could have easily occurred in an Church as large as the Temples of Satan.

We can only ask that you avoid these individuals who have chosen to slander the Leader of Theistic Satanism, due part and parcel to the attackers being exposed by the Clergy of the Temples of Satan and its Technologies Department for alleged fraud and phishing.

Thank You

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Welcome to the End!
From Reverend Tom Erik Raspotnik Founder of the Temples of Satan ( A Theistic Satanic Church)

This is not a “hacker posting” I will address a few things as I end my rule as Leader of Theistic Satanism by explaining in a brief resume, that will stand the test of time, and cannot be debated other than from “pseudo intellectuals” that permeate the grounds of Social Networking.

I personally will never apologize to any person who I have attacked because it is the way of those of us who can challenge with knowledge and understanding and as people will ramble on with the delusions of what they are doing, be aware as you are doing people named in this final letter are undoing for their own benefits and when you finally meet them or become enlightened you will then realize I was right in what I was trying to expose.

Lets also understand today what leader means to me:
This is to show those people who refuse to understand why I called myself Leader of Theistic Satanism.

1. The person who leads or commands a group, organization, or country.
2. A person followed by others.
So again when the critics speak they speak of how I claim leadership over the entire religion, this is merely an attempt to beguile you with “bullshit” and a shallow attempt to destroy or even slow down what movement that was created, when they failed they then “twisted words” and attempted to benefit themselves.

The point can be proven as I was elected by my Church to lead a religion that my Church was forging forward in at a great rate of speed.

And then I will also explain the claims of our Church being false, by explaining to you the required guidelines to start your own Church, and of course those who cannot seem to read I.R.S. Guidelines will probably attack you as well in an attempt to discredit you.

1. You will need a congregation of people (verifiable).
2. You will need a psychical address with an actual mailing address, the building can be your home, or an office or a rented location. (where you get mail).
3. You will need a Constitution and Statement of Faith (both can easily be written).
4. You will need a business license in some areas and a “doing business as” depending on your state you will need to check local regulations.
5. You will need to appoint a Church Board or a person “Sole Church” and then you will need to set up Clergy Guidelines (which meet or exceed I.R.S. Compliance).
6. You will need to set up a Church Checking Account or appoint a treasurer from your board.
Other than that its simple, and requires very little paperwork, you of course should send each ordained person a test and a application and then send them a PDF Certificate which can be found in many places on the Net as a download.

Now the critics will attempt to complicate this process again to slow one down and attaining their goals and because they won’t despite being an easy process pursue such legalities.
There are many Churches that have used this process in the past and are legal to this day, my Church has been functioning since 2000 under these guidelines and other than some State Regulations the process has remained the same, base on I.R.S. Guidelines.
And onward to the next part of this letter.

I have seen people claim I am a liar, well first off I will simply ask them to prove such lies with evidence and I will address such claims, calling someone a liar is a often used method to create doubt in people who do not have complete information.

I have as anyone lied but not to my membership, and it continues to grow strong to this day.
I also like this exclamation that I am fat, a blob, or psychotic I am overweight as many Americans actually the numbers are as follows.
Percent of adults age 20 years and over who are obese: 33.9% (2007-2008)
Percent of adults age 20 years and over who are overweight (and not obese): 34.4% (2007-2008)

So the critics who like to throw that fact out are more than likely overweight themselves, I am 6 foot 2 inches and weight between 260 and 275 and of course the detractors will tell you I am like 500 pounds.
I can provide a picture (current) of myself to those who wish to see who I am templesofsatan@yahoo.com respectful requests only…

I have also seem claims that I spend Church monies for my own personal gain, that is ridiculous and this year our donations are lower with a poor economy that it has ever been, as any minister I am entitled to receive compensation for travel, and I do spend monies on advertising and web spaces, all are unquestionable expenditures.

People also are claiming I am not a Satanist, well lets address that here and now and I will post my resume of accomplishments, and failures.

At the age of 13 years I began to study the Occult (note Occult) and at 23 I joined the Church of Satan (I posted my Red Card destruction in 1995). In 1995 I started a Quasi-Modern Satanic Organization (note organization) which comprised of 1124 members mostly off-line, but in 1999 that organization was closed due to internal power struggles which caused a “power shift” and thus caused a collapse.
I took the remaining people from the organization and formed the Temples of Satan in 2000 with a colleague who left in 2004 in pursuit of his own ventures, my co-founder is one of several involved in interpretation of Sumerian Languages and Cuneiform and remains my teacher to this day.

I also along the way thanks to establishing my relationships have assembled some people who make up my team who are experts or academics in Sumerian Lore, and while my life-long journey of wisdom continues they are updating me as I do them on my new plans for Satanism, often times they are critical and laugh at my designs as they are mostly Atheists, but we get along.
In 2000 I officially filled out my paperwork and pursued Theistic Satanism, while I was not alone in the pursuit people also had sights on Theistic Satanism.
I gained membership and moved forward, I was interviewed by several papers and television programs, because I was unique as I spoke of worshiping a Sumerian Satan.

The concept of worshiping a deity is not unique nor was mine, but because I knew people who consulted with me I wrote literally a few hundred papers in Satanism, and while people agree with some and disagree with others I provided something the critics can not compete with over three hundred prayers and rituals which I provided 20% to the public and 80% to the membership all speaking of Satanism, again I fail to see how I am not a Satanist, I see the methodology of the critics if they convince you that I am a liar then you will not research my writings.

I of course am not without fault I like this Venger Satanis guy thought I could take over the Order of Nine Angles as they were long defunct, but as Venger I failed as well and I see him still claiming to now have control, I would ask this control over what?
I will say this once there were no membership lists, so just say you are starting over not taking over, I tried this as well but found out I was getting scammed by some people in England who claimed to have lists and information that I purchased for over five hundred euro.

I made mistakes, as everyone has, and I have learned my lesson, which now guides me in a different direction, which allows me to leave my Church and pursue other venues including public speaking and more radio interviews in the future, but not necessarily about Satanism.
But my current critics which I will expose now for you all, just so you can really see who is talking about me and of course.
Pope Fraize ( I am uncertain his real name) but he runs a Church called the Church of Leviathan which I have not heard much about (meaning its tiny) is actively involved in attacking me and making claims that he is some “Christian like” Crusader going after me, which I would simply ask for someone in a band which is called Gauge why would you fixate yourself on me, when your videos have less than five thousand views on You Tube® which I find interesting since he has time to bash me out of jealousy calling me a “false prophet” and this of course takes him away from promoting his band on one of the most successful sources of band promotion on the Net.

Then attempting to contact me almost “stalker like” asking me to change this and that, and asking over and over to join my private FaceBook Group® all in all doesn’t he have a band to promote.
I think by detracting against me he is attempting to hold his weak attempt at a Church together.

Damien Blackthorn: This name says it all hailing from the “farm lands” of Indiana this self styled Satanist who “self published” a book connecting Satan and Lilith and even calling Satan, Lucifer something any “well read Satanist” knows is false.
While the book is interesting it serves as a better “door-stop.”
This man decided to attack me in a series of videos which he used images of Fat People which should make those who are overweight slightly angry.
He then had several of his women contact me claiming to do rituals on me, which I find laughable at best since after looking at their profiles they were found out to be Modern Satanists. I am still standing!

And finally I attracted after a interview on her radio show, a “Cyber Stalker” Allison Jones also known as Sin Jones who was a brainwashed member of Venger Satanis’s Cult.
Sin Jones at first was a nice person, but little did I know she was creating lies and deceitful arguments against what I was writing only to cover her own falsehoods and fictitious past.
After a careful investigation by the Stratton Brothers a Internet Investigation Firm and the I.T. Manager of our Church we found numerous claims of Credit Card Fraud and Allegations of Phishing from her internet sales site www.the-poison-apple.com all of which have been reported we also have set up a help email at flagshiproductions@gmail.com where those also who have been taken by this person can contact people who can help them get the addresses and names of people where they can make claims to local authorities.
But we found out through our more exhaustive investigations that she has alleged connections to the dangerous Christian organization known as Opus Dei http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opus_Dei which she has made somewhat evident in her store which sells Quasi Christian Items and her page on Face Book https://www.facebook.com/LaNinaBlanca which is currently up and of course www.the-poison-apple.com (beware this is the site that has allegations of Credit Card Fraud).
I would like you to look over her Christian Items, and this person makes claims against me being Christian, again I would ask what Christian items do I sell?? None!
Posted on her page::
https://www.facebook.com/pages/La-Santa-Muerte/112671312093345
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Muerte Some source material to her connections to Christianity.

But this gets better as recent interviews from former friends:
Jim Daniels
“I was friends with this woman, but when she started posting Christianity in my posting group I soon thereafter removed her.”
Lori Stansfield
“Sin Jones or Allison Jones is simply trying to hide her Opus Dei connection, she should be avoided and so should her site www.the-poison-apple.com

Sin Jones or Allison Jones is not a Satanist and those who remain in Satanism should she right through her as I have provided evidence to the fact.
She has embarked on a series of attacks which the Temples of Satan www.templesofsatan.com will be dealing with, she is currently creating numerous false links all in an attempt to discredit those who have exposed her dealings and alleged fraud.
I have seen several others making claims to such and we also have several sources right now claiming she is involved with Opus Dei and other Catholic Groups, I suspect with over 30 years in the Occult she has a connection and with her links I provided you the reader can see evidence which is mounting daily!

So as all these people mutter on about the “he said she said” of me, I move forward on several projects some dedicated to Satanism, some are not.
I thank you for your time.

I have been working with people over the years, and I think those of us who are Real Satanists need to start a Fire Department so we can put out all the fires that permeate the internet.

A Ramble A Satanic Rant.

Church of Theistic Satanism and Temples of Satan Learning Module;

This module is best read and practiced since the reveal of new information to initiated membership and clergy will involve extensive training in this direction over typical methods of magical teachings.

From the Leader of Theistic Satanism Reverend Tom Erik Raspotnik December 2011

To actively direct our mental focus on only one thing at a time means to not focus it on all the other distractions that are constantly around us. It means to have the ability and also the discipline to say yes only to the most important thing at this moment and to say no to all the rest.

Now, how can we develop a clear and powerful mental focus?

First: Focus on the right thing

One of the key aspects of using the mind efficiently is knowing what we want and then concentrating our full attention on it. By focusing our mind on one single task, it is amazing how effective we can be, this is especially important since of our ever changing economic conditions that provide distractions, also bad relationships and or sibling or family rivalries can turn ones life away from the ability to focus.

Not only spennding over thirty years in the Occult, I spent equally as many years working in business, I have employed and now self-employed but I have used focus and sometimes when personal problems were carried into work, I became cloudy and could not effectively focus on matters or issues I needed to take on but I worked on the clouds and the sky became clear which also improved the magic I used and how I used to control the environment around me.

In business there are the principles of leadership and management working together, as well as magic and learning about it, In my experience I see leadership answering the question “What do we do (and why)?” and management answering “How do we do it (most effectively)?”

1. Begin with the end in mind and 2. First things first.

I mean you can develop the skill of focus to a great depth, but if you are focusing on wrong things you will do wrong things very good – but nothing more. For instance you can play a computer game to a ridiculous high level of skill or get obsessed with a certain person or other fan-based material, so can this also apply magical arts and practice.

But you may achieve absolutely nothing regarding your overall life-goals by doing that. On the contrary: you most certainly move your mental focus away from what is really important to you. I call this skill the ability of self-leadership, the ability to decide the right things to focus on and the purpose of such focus how it applies to your magical direction.

It can be done very well by developing a personal vision of the magic you are attempting to work from there and moving forward in focus. This is a key if you want to be successful.

In the spiritual or magical terminology I would say it nicely you create Affluence, Intention (goals)and it transforms while attention (focus) creates your desired ends.

Of course the skill of mental focus is applied also in everyday life and enhances our abilities to deal with the world, so it is beneficial whether we want to use it to create what we desire through magic or just to be effective in what we do, business or personal.

Alright, onward and being clear about what it is we need or want to focus on, how can we do it at the best level, how can we rise to become a strong magician and use such an art in our personal or business lives, how can we use this focus?

The importance to direct our focus:

If we fail to direct our mental focus from the inside, our focus will get caught by the outside influences, this becomes a struggle everyday our wives, boyfriends, parents, and co-workers to name a few constantly distract us, the internet even becomes a distraction, as many of us in the Occult enjoy a desire to feed our brains, somethings this actually damages us.

Instead we will not act but we will really react to the demands of the outside world. Of course this is necessary and the outside world is a kind of a feedback system, but if it gets out of balance and we are reacting more to the outside then from the inside continuously, stress is the sure thing that will follow.

If we master our mental focus we become able to act into the world and by that tend to create the environment we want around us. If we fail to do this, the influence of the environment (including other people) will get bigger on us, which means: we are not in control of our life, something I personally believe the deity wishes for us as individuals to do.

By taking control of your own mental focus you also become able to focus on the good side of life and not so much on the bad sides of life. You may say this is deluding yourself or it is not being objectively, and to a certain degree that is true: it should not end in ignorance. But is watching the murders and catastrophes in the news an objective use of your mental focus? Or is it also possible to put our focus on something that is more empowering and where we actually can do something about?

Studying magic becomes easier, learning theories or discovering somethings you may feed your lust for knowledge of.

So it is very important to actively direct our mental focus and develop this skill to a high degree. It is in direct relationship to our level of success and also joy and fulfillment, such actions were performed by the magicians of the ancients, as people consider ancient philosophy they fail to realize that despite the stress of just trying to find a meal or even a job the ancient civilizations knew much about focus, since they had little to do with themselves often sitting for days uneventful days that we can only think were extremely a bore, so instead of letting these long days and nights get aay from them they focused on family, relationships, and in the case of magicians, magic.

The process of focus easy!

If we apply our attention on something or a task we concentrate all of our mental power on this task and therefore are able to be most effective. It is the process of creation, of conscious creation. If I take my task or goal at hand and direct my focus and actions on this single task, I focus with intensity on getting it done, getting my desired outcome. So the key here is to simplify to that degree that we can focus single-mindedness on a task. If we do so, all of our power will be used.

1. Select your one task, lets say a magical task such as keeping forces at bay.
2. Put all your attention to that one task, learn methods by reading and writing them in a notebook to refer to and maintain focus.
3. Stay with this task if possible uninterrupted, until it is finished (!) do not waiver keep doing it all week if you have to.

The Zone:

If we focus great intensity and for a certain period of time we come into a state of flow. In sports many call it “The Zone” when you are so focused that you become one with what you do, that is in a zone.

Time vanishes. It is like we totally forget anything around us. In that state we are most effective and that surprisingly without too much effort. For me it is without doubt the greatest and final kind of mental focus we can achieve, and I seemingly can create magical actions with ease, but as anything there is always a percentage of failure that can occur, this should not daunt you whatsoever.

How can we come into a flow?

1. Focus with intensity on your task, dive totally into it and become one with it
2. Do it for a reasonable period of time, at least 15, better 30 minutes, or even longer as required.
3. Avoid any distractions by creating the necessary environment a cool, and quiet room, or outdoors in a field free from the distraction of birds and highway noises, towards the evening is best when wildlife tends to be less active.

For me this often means in the evening or weekends when I have time to be totally alone with myself. It is a great source of very deep creativity – it is almost like creating natural perfection – you can’t do wrong – it flows, and produces some incredible experiences with magic, or even gives me some clarity to take on problems in an effective manner.

What is blocking or making things go wrong with mental focus?

1. No motivation or fuzzy motivation, sometimes there are things we think we can accomplish, while all is possible so things are beyond the control or you or your deities, as sometimes “self centered” goals may not fit properly into how the world unfolds magically or by design.

This goes back to the introduction of this article since a lack of motivation to use your mental focus is nothing else as a lack of clear goals. If it is fuzzy what you want to create your focus is also scattered, this factor often in magic causes failures.

2. Too much distraction from the environment

Phone calls, colleagues or other people with demands, unfriendly environments, those things can make it pretty hard to focus on what we want to do. So try to set up the right environment by: disabling phone-calls or instant massages, keep other persons for interrupting you, stop interrupting you yourself, I suggest you approach focus training on days when you are free from distraction and free from drama.

3. Mental blocks

If we are unsatisfied with what we do in any way, maybe because someone else said we should do it or maybe it is just not the right thing we are working on, we are really resisting it and this keeps us from being effective. It is important to commit to what we do fully in order to get a good results, but often self doubt can surface, as you perhaps have attempted to focus over and over again and failed this is not you check the other effects before giving in or up.

Focus on a larger scale

Until now we talked about mental focus on a level of daily routine. Focus can and has also be applied on a larger scale if we talk about our personal resources or even resources in groups:

That means if you have so much opportunities in life and so many things that demand our attention, the one skill to select what we focus on and what not is critical. It also comes full circle to the first few points of this lesson.

Pitfalls with mental focus?

When we improve mental focus and use it effectively in everyday live it is important to also keep a broader perspective. This can be achieved by weekly or monthly reviews of what we do and where we are going.

I suggest you create a diary or compendium of what your specific actions and focus have become and how they fit into your structure of magic, again I refer to my note books which I have taken notes on magic and put them into perspective so I can fit this puzzle together better making my magic stronger over all.

Sometimes it is necessary to redirect and be flexible by adjusting. It is often called a form of balance

I hope this helped to focus on developing the mental focus to a degree that you become more effective and happier in your life, and can create magical experiences that often are I must say exceptional.

The oldest civilizations had secrets, these secrets are being revealed now as super computing and new archeology has begun to reveal secrets we have never been able to as how the ancients performed miracles, this came not from people being Gods or Goddesses but by linking themselves in faith and focusing on the abilities they have inside, magic is not a table full of props or jars full of spices or incense it occurs when we as individuals solid in faith focus and desired actions, somethings will never materialize but one cannot give in or give up ever, as the deity wants us to move forward and understand certain aspects of our mind.

Witches, Bitch craft and Ignorance.
From the Leader of Theistic Satanism.

Attacked again and again we who hold Satan close to our hearts are, we are chastised, and removed for even the slightest commentary that people mistake as darkness, or negative energy.
First lets get a few things clear about Theistic Satanism and its magical nature.

Scholars of Theistic Satanism have distinct evidence that Satan comes from Sumeria, a region which predates all of the Roman, Greek, Norse, and Celtic Pantheons, this information is not debatable and
shows us things that are relevant to the path of Satan.

Most people encounter “hyped-up” Modern Satanist’s which I like to define as “Atheists in Halloween Costumes.”
I do not worship myself like they do I have a deity it is Satan and no Deity who comes after his birth is relevant to me, and while I refuse to disrespect those deities I know many are recasts of Satan and many a witch and warlock are worshiping Satan by default, and nothing more please me to know.

The concept of Light and Dark relates to energy, and there is no gauge to measure it, this is not “Ghost busters” and there is no meters to measure Light or Dark, and to assume that any deity cannot freely move around within the confines of any energy they chose is pure ignorance.

Creating causes around seeking power is what I see many times in Witchcraft and to be perfectly honest with you I find even the worst squirrel can get a few nuts from a tree once in awhile, so what you feel may be interesting imagine having the deity who is magical in nature and who was given Earth, and who coexists with Innana on this planet thanks to Nannar.

Trying to make a Blacksmith, a Lover, a Strong man anymore powerful than the Lord of Earth Satan is as silly as not knowing how to drive.
Theistic Satanism is not for everyone, nor should it be its for wise and enlightened individuals who can handle the energy of the God of Magic himself, I find 90% of the people I meet in Wicca get lost after I speak for three minutes, they read less than five books and think they have the entire world protected.

I say welcome to our world, the Theistic Satanist’s are behind so many forms and functions of magic, because it was Satan introduced magic to the Sumerians, not Thor, Apollo, Aphrodite, or Hades, it was Satan who came down from the heavens of Nannar to Earth.

I as many of you are sick and tired of people who have decided to create name badges out of fear and misunderstanding pinning them on who they want to out of ignorance, playing games lying about Satan and making stupid claims blending Christianity with Wicca and Paganism.

I can only believe that informed people exist amongst the zombies, and I would like to invite those people to converse with me anytime, because those people without ignorance to who Satan really is probably are the “cream of the crop” and could have more than a three minute conversation with me or those of us who are Theistic Satanist’s.

I meet people involved in Witchcraft sometimes daily or weekly and they often seem very open minded to what I practice, but then on-line they done their Halloween Costumes and attack like they are Wicked Witches in hiding.

I call this hypocritical behavior, and I can tell you this beware of what you think is not magical and who you think is weak, because silence in sometimes a way wise trick the people they need to attack, so I can tell you this not from my ideologies but from truth, Satan does not care about light or dark, nor does he subscribe to Karma he is not Indian, or of the Buddhist Philosophy so Karma is nothing to him or his adepts, we practice magic without the need of multitudes of Gods or Goddesses help, we have only one and he sits on the throne given by Nannar.

Theistic Satanism doesn’t adhere to any left or right hand path two origins comes to play with the left hand and right hand theosophical argument.
1. In ancient times one hand was used to eat and one to wipe (get the idea?)
2. In India and Ancient Hindi it referred to polarity and actions, again not related to Theistic Satanism.
3. Madam Blavatsky popularized it in several books on Eastern Mysticism once again not related to Theistic Satanism.

So there are so many misconceptions to how and why we worship Satan, or have him as a deity, if these witches and warlocks were so well informed they would understand we are magicians as well, or at least some of us are, and we are not aligned to create some “spooky atmosphere”!

Do Theistic Satanists do odd things, some people do, do they kill animals?
Some rituals involve culling of animals, an ancient practice and as I say if you don’t want to do that type of spell, then don’t if you want to be critical of someones magic and the use of animal blood get out of magic and join P.E.T.A.!

The problem today is Christianity has been drug into witchcraft, years ago the ancestors would have been ashamed of what it has become today because of authors looking for people to band together in a cause that falls under a white light designation to protect one another, trust me those of us in Theistic Satanism can easily turn off the lights and end the party.

My suggestion is to get along and quit being closed minded, if you are a Theistic Satanist don’t bash witches unless they bash or try to affix name badges to you, inform them and if they refuse to respond just laugh them off.
Hail Satanism

The Latest Rant Against Silly Satanism!

From Reverend Tom Erik Raspotnik Temples of Satan Founder and Leader of Theistic Satanism.

1. Wearing a inverted cross!

   While fashionable in the Goth Crowd this symbol has a deep rooted origin in Catholicism in a reference to St. Peter’s request to be hung upside down on a cross upon death, this symbol also as a side note appears behind the Pope in his inner chambers along with hundreds of Death Metal Band Covers selling the sizzle of Satan while not believing in an actual deity.

2. Claiming they can curse you yet they don’t know the components or failure rate via electronic media.

   Magicians know that ingredients are a part of successful summonings and spell craft, even Wicca and Paganism understand components and ritual, I see no valid ritual in Modern Satanism except for the confusion of Anton La Vey who was never that brilliant.

   I also have asked people to explain the system used and they run like dew drops on a can of Pepsi in the sun.

   Using the Book Satanic Rituals by La Vey realize you are simply masturbating!

3. When asked about who Satan is they will say Lucifer, I am sorry that not everyone has investigated the differences, but simple historical studies show Lucifer is a Light Bearer Deity

   Lucifer was a bright God as well in Greek and Roman Paganism, references also have pointed to Lucifer and Jesus even being connected.

   References seem to have lead to a movement of Polytheism in Satanism, which could allow for such, which is not a position of Theistic Satanist who thinks Satan is his or her deity in faith.

4. When asked these people stutter or cannot explain the system of magic they use, they make grandiose claims to summonings and great demons but cannot seriously describe the method, I can honestly tell you careful preparation and years of study is required to accurately do any form of entity summonings effectively and warn those who dabble in this that great harm comes to those who fail to understand that summonings are like cake baking and require proper ingredients and seal and protections, and often people do get hurt.

5. He or she is a former member of an actual Church in Satanism, like the Temples of Satan and they leave starting a hundred web sites, blogging and acting like an authority figure all the while they are cut and pasting the former works of the Real Church.

6. They are involved in activities that are borderline “Reverse Christian” example the Brotherhood of Satan where people dress like Knights of the Templar a Christian rooted group of people who fought for Catholicism.

   People often try to interject spooky rhetoric into Satanism without thinking people are informed to these ploys or attempts to explain a spooky form of Satanism using Conspiracy Theory.

   Another problem occurs when people who are not actively involved in magical invocations try to exclaim they can speak for the deity, while I and others have interpreted visions we share shouting down that people are in danger and that the messiah can deliver something is misleading I have never claimed this act, because the deity can deliver a message through a person but its very much individual, while this can be interpreted and explained often times people think they can create messiah situations, which is an action often portrayed by Reverse-Christian Satanist’s.

7. He or she writes you and tells you Satan is ashamed of your actions, I always ask do they act as a psychic to Satan?

   I firmly believe that people cannot judge paths unless connected with the deity, I can say with confidence that often times I can see straight thru people but that type of ability is of course not Satanism it is often a thing of many different studies, including advanced meditation or advanced mind control, but relating this to action is difficult at best.

8. Often times those who are Reverse-Christian also will claim they are connected to a Secret Society when they are not, this is easy to discredit one simply has to study the Secret Society, find out entrance fees or fees or requirements then investigate the claimant as to their past, and then interview them with questions related as how can you prove Mason’s are Satanist’s, they will always claim because of Albert Pike who actually was not that popular and wrote Morals of Dogma which was not universally accepted by the Masonic Orders and in actuality speaks of Lucifer not Satan.

   The Brotherhood of Satan remains the odd group out with ideas they are based in Masonry and or Illuminati and dress as Knights of Templar’s and other kooky Halloween Costumes which I find downright hilarious and delusional at best.

9. Another ideology is Philosophical in the tag line, these people perhaps are scared to be Real Satanist’s or what, challenging actual existence is something left better for Atheist’s.

10. I recently saw another mix to it in Gnostic Satanism, when will people just give up reinventing the wheel when they can’t grasp the simple concept of Theistic Satanism, people are acting in stupidity and using tactics nothing short of Christian in root.

11. He or she is claiming some lineage in Satanism, this also can be an hilarious debate, the founder of the Brotherhood of Satan claims this, yet offers up proof that goes no where, with multiple fabrications nothing short of La Vey in tactic.

12. He or she is selling stripping acts in the name of Satan an example is Venus Satanas who is overly embarrassing with her wear a gallon of make up to cover up that Coyote Ugly look and selling strip club dances for fans, I often wonder if she sells Satanic Blow-jobs in the back room.

13. He or she is selling a new book on Satanism which he or she is describing Lilith as a deity of importance or creating a new Order of Nine Angles (which has been only a fraud order since David Myatt closed it.) Silly people think this set of works are relevant and or have teeth, as a Real Satanist and accomplished magician I can tell you quit wasting your time on reading this false tale of magic, mental masturbating on a set of silly edicts written by a farm boy is embarrassing isn’t it, and by the way David Myatt the founder also known as Anton Long is now a devoted Muslim.

14. He or she has decided to call themselves La Vey or claims ties to the Great Atheist La Vey, I see this with people who are famous for tying themselves onto a worthless man who died broke living on welfare selling Satan out for money to buy trinkets.

    Bury L a Vey he wrote a series of books that are mental masturbation for Satanic Dummies.

    Satanic Bible sell it, having it in your possession or showing it off is even sillier I cannot tell you how many people I have met that show me they own it I could care less I am not an Atheist, if you have a early copy you can sell it for allot of money, because people are blind to its contents.

15. He or she talks of unity, it can never occur because not everyone likes the truth, you and I know it but if you expose these people they don’t like to be honest it ruins their plans, maybe they are spooky because it makes them feel better, or maybe they use it to attract fans to a stage, all in all I ask again and again why? Unity is for Liberals who like everyone the same or like everyone to get along, people can get along “chase away these anarchists and zealots.”

    Unity is not a concept of most religion, coexistence is a better term but people fail to read enough about historical movements and ideology changes to better allow people getting along.

16. He or she is in constant attack mode against organized Churches, this is a behavior of Christianity and slows down actions that could make the religion better, I have found most people see these people for what they are, when they make claims Satanism needs no leadership or Clergy the next day they build twelve web sites and create portals that fail as they lack the marketing or financial resources to actually support efforts.

I am sorry Real Satanist’s I know its hard to separate the lies and bullshit, this is why Satanism needs Clergy to help you and guide you away from these problems and people they slow down the efforts and cause chaos something I think they enjoy doing because they have nothing better to do.

Some people have Leaders, others have people who think they are relevant..
From Reverend Tom Erik Raspotnik Leader of Theistic Satanism.

I have been watching Satanism evolve and everyday a new group founded by some “new comer” comes into view as Satanism expands almost everywhere on the globe, but I will ask a few questions so you can make a logical choice on who will march us into the future as a religion.
And follow them up with my answers to help those who need some help to chose a Satanic Church.

Q. Is the group, or organization you are interested in becoming or has become a I.R.S. Guideline Church or is it just a group of people who gather in a field or gather via, the internet?

A. The Temples of Satan/ Church of Theistic Satanism have met I.R.S. Guidelines as a Church since 2000 and continues to meet or exceed such guidelines.

Q. Is the group or organization you are interested in actually ordaining ministry or are they just taking other peoples ordainment certificates, do they offer classes or guidelines to become a Clergy and training afterward to allow them to expand?

A. The Temples of Satan has a proud tradition which is unmatched in Satanism, of training those who seek clergy and higher positions, and offer even Charter Legal Churches and Covens to the Occult Community exceeding the critics claims that we offer no unity.

Q. Does the organization or group have a spokesperson who has experience in management, or just some “has been” who is organizing in rebellion against something he or she was part of?

A. People come and go, even the Temples of Satan has many people who have left and attempted to steal membership information and created detracting commentary against the Church which they were a part of always with a complain and/ or bitch of the Church they were once a part of.
Once leaving the Temples of Satan Clergy you are now defrocked as a priest, priestess or minister and thus are required to pursue aftermarket ordainment, we do not as an actual Church recognize the Universal Life Church ordainment process, since it does not root itself in actual Theistic Satanism, and as a person looking for a stable home, you should also question this, why the group or Church cannot or will-not seek legal ordainment processes.

Q. Is the founder or leader involved or does he rule from the mists?

A. The Leader of Theistic Satanism as a religion is our founder, it was attained by voting process, which is a ten year position, in which he or she is required to re-run amongst clergy for this coveted position, and even though detractors claim his or her rule is irrelevant, that is also a misconception, that would be like starting a Catholic Church and calling for the demise of the Pope.
The Temples of Satan is an actual Church and because it has legal precedence over the religion by establishing an actual I.R.S. Guideline Church along with a Constitution and Statement of Faith we can legally and ecumenically speak for the religion.
Our Founder does not view Leadership as the ultimate position as he leads the religion of Theistic Satanism from a viewpoint that he is part of his whole Church, and walks amongst the people, not hiding behind any cloak or in any closet, he is public and highly known, he uses his real name unlike these other groups and organization who hide behind certain identities

Q. Does your organization or group, have National Meetings or just meet at a coffee table once in awhile?

A. We have a National Meeting you can attend and push for continued off-line involvement, we are the fastest growing church in Satanism and will continue such growth with or without the blessings of the detractors and those in other groups shouting that this Real Satanic Church is comprised of “Reverse Christian’s”
We are not even close to those detracting statements, and abhor those who try to proclaim such rhetoric in an attempt to slow our forward movement.

Q. Does you organization or group have clergy and how do they attain such roles?

A. Our clergy is chosen and tested and is comprised of individuals with a multitude of strengths and educations, we do not recruit those who are failure in life, those who choose to remain on Public Assistance, those who do not commit to the Church and working inside of its goals, we do allow many Charters, and individuality in teaching amongst the clergy for a varied experience of our membership.

We are committed to continue to expand, bridging the gaps between many to create an atmosphere of unity, not amongst those who have fallen to Pseudo Satanism.

Q. Does your organization or group still teach that Lucifer and Satan is the same deity, or teach from some book written by its founder or someone that is out to profit off selling books?

A. Being in Satanism for over 30 years I can as the Founder of the Temples of Satan tell you there is no book that any Satanist has written that is relevant to the true story of Satanism, and after reading almost one hundred books of late by authors, I can say with complete confidence, they all missed the mark on who Satan really is, and when we announce the truth it will be made available to those interested for free as long as you are a member of the Temples of Satan.
Later this information which we invested over 20 years researching and over tens of thousands of dollars will come in the form of a Kindle Book for a very low price with proceeds going to various Church projects including a educational program for many religions.

Q. Does your organization or group write or “cut and paste” ?

A. The Clergy of The Temples of Satan create over one hundred original prayers, spells and invocations over the course of the year and maintains a vast library of PDF’s covering everything from the beginner to the advanced Satanist.

Q Does your leader have a career or legitimate business, or is he or she renting a ghetto home, or living with parents in a basement somewhere?

A. The Founder and Clergy of the Temples of Satan are majority employed in some capacity, and those who are disabled and receiving benefits are seeking business and other financial means to rise above.
We have numerous professionals who are attracted by the professional treatment and experience of our Founder and Clergy, we offer counseling and educational experience, not mystery or sex trades to rise above.

Q. Does you organization or group offer equality for male and female clergy?

A. We offer equal roles for all membership and clergy to attain a higher self and position within the actual Church.

Q. Does your group or organization participate in Non Profit Donations to valid organizations or Individuals?

A. The Temples of Satan donates a portions of its own donations to other groups and Non Profit Entities, like Toys of Tot’s and or the Wounded Warrior Foundation, all excess donations and or profits are moved towards good causes to show we participate in community activities.

Q. Does your group or organization try to promote themselves or the Church?

A. We do appearances, and while sometimes self promotion occurs its Satan first, Church second and then ourselves third in promotional activities, and the clergy help one another to succeed on a varied level of subjects, we defend one another and even membership as long as no one is doing something truly stupid.

Q. Does you organization or group create websites to attack their former Church or fixate themselves on trying to capture Theistic Satanism from the Temples of Satan?

A. While these efforts are gallant indeed, to the victor belongs the spoils, no Church in Satanism has the vast resources enjoyed by the Temples of Satan, and because we are a name brand in Satanism all efforts to dethrone our clergy fall short, there are far too many of us and too few of the groups and organizations that hate or despise us that succeed, not amount to false accusations and claims can overcome the dedication of our clergy.

Q. Does your group of organization have people who can work with people on a one on one basis and provide phone numbers to call them?

A. Our clergy is dedicated and willing to speak with anyone who has a serious interest in Satanism.

Before you approach anyone who says they have a an actual Church compare their achievements and visions with those of the Temples of Satan and you will find why we are fastest growing Church in Satanism.
Our founder has 30 plus years dedicated to Satan and our clergy alone has over 100 years combined experience working with all forms of the Occult, we are the experts and it is no wonder why our membership stays membership.

Thank You
Reverend Tom Erik Raspotnik

Does Satan Answer Prayers?
From Reverend Tom Erik Raspotnik Leader of Theistic Satanism

Satan loves you and wants you to bring your burdens and cares to Him in prayer.
Two things can keep Satan from giving us what we ask in prayer. The first is questioning his existence– breaking Satan’s law and acting outside His will. Dis-belief erects a barrier between us and this God. Until that barrier is torn down, God can’t answer our prayers. This is why the first step you need to take is to turn by faith to Satan and ask Him to forgive your dis-belief and come into your life. When we do that, the barrier of disbelief is removed – and Satan hears our prayers.
The second thing that keeps Satan from giving us what we ask for is if we are seeking something that isn’t His will. Satan loves us and knows what is best for us – and because of this, He won’t give us anything that isn’t His will.
Real prayer begins with a personal relationship with Satan through faith in him. Are you ready to take this step?
