Well said.
There is a vast difference between religious Satanism, which is largely
atheistic, paganism/the occult which are NOT related to Satan but rather to
pagan gods and so forth (although there are offshoots which do worship the
Satanic elements of the Christian mythology, but these aren't that common),
and the teenage-type Satanism that most "heavy-metal" kids espouse (I know I
did!) which has nothing to do with paganism or the religious Satanism, and
typically consists of the "Satan rules! 666!!!" sort of phrases, instead of
a real meaningful religion.
It is false to assume that since Saunders is called the "head witch," that he
is associated with the medieval witchcraft fantasies of early Christians; it
is also false to assume that anyone with the name "head witch" is associated
in any way with Satanism, because that isn't true, either.
I hope that Jason Fifer hasn't confused anyone into thinking that Saunders is
a Satan-worshipper, that Stonehenge is for Satanists, that Sabbath was
imitiating Satanists in their stage shows, etc, etc.. Satan and Paganism are
worlds apart and they ought to be kept that way.

This Stonehenge story got my attention and I wanted to add some more of it.I
remember that Ozzy once told a story about some weird hooded men(druids?)
who were hanging out of some concert in the seventies.They surrounded Ozzy
and co. with candles in their hands and guess what happened?Black Sabbath
members started to sing Happy Birthday to these "druids" and then they blew
their candles out and told them to get the hell out of there! When I heard
about this story I just couldn`t do but laugh.So much for the satanic image.
The Really funny thing is that this satanic image is still haunting
them.Some of The Finnish religious groups are afraid of that some kids might
try to burn some churches after Black Sabbath and some other bands have
played their sets here in Finland(next sunday).
So if this happens I will tell you more in next week.
I also remember that there was this satanic band(true satanic band) called
Black Widow who had a song called:"Come To The Sabbath-Satan`s There".And
this band really played one gig in Stonehenge(damn,this is like Spinal Tap!)
many years ago.If anyone has more info about this band,please tell us more.
Midsummer`s eve top 3 songs:
1.Black Sabbath:Black Sabbath
2.Mercyful Fate:Melissa
3.Rainbow:Stargazer
>Sani
p.s.I hope the witches won`t kidnap my 2 cats in Midsummer`s eve!
not only have "Black Widow" never played Stonehenge, but NO band has ever
played Stonehenge
Stonehenge is owned by "National Heritage"...it is not freely accessed by
ANYONE !
Can we now finally cut the crap about Stonhenge ?
If you guys want to discover Satanism...stop toying with fire and go read
the Satanic commandments. Then either decide to join up with others or get
on with your life......

It was the 'Born Again' tour. They had a Stonehenge set which was too big
to fit in some venues.

It's the stage set for the "Born Again" tour. You can see a picture of it
in the Castle remastered "Born Again" CD. the rear of the stage had 3
huge Stonehenge looking pieces. And they were huge- they looked almost
twice the size of actual Stonehenge pillars.
So I guess Spinal Tap decided to parody that and end up with stonehenge
pieces that were too _small_.

Where you are getting confused is similarity of words.
Satan is christian concept. He was a God created Angel that went "bad".
Paganism has absolutely no correlation to christianity whatsoever.
Where the similarity comes in is the fact that the christians stole just
about everything they could from the Pagans.
Christmas day falling on the 25th december....A Pagan festival, robbed by
the Christians. Easter too.
Pagans do not worship a supernatural God. They worhsip GodS, from a point of
view of Earth being mother and the different GodS bringing differnet
blessings or curses.
I am absolutely astounded at your lack of knowledge on a subject that you
claim to know all about. The Pagan culture is extremely strong here in
England and Im quite sure that they would be appalled at your quite
ridiculously uneducated outbursts. The Pagans are a beautiful people. Dont
trash them with the same garbage as some kid stuck in a bedroom pulling grim
faces in the mirror thinking he's a demon or some disciple.
I'm quite sure my MCC friends who are Pagan would find great difficulty
seeing eye to eye with a nubile who wants to sacrifice his pet gerbil in the
belief that this somehow gives him membership to a mythical club !
"Satanist just have more pride ".......my son....you are a buffoon. Plain
and simple. you are no more satanist than the pope !
If you love Sabbath, you are very welcome here. You are however, hijacking
every mail with the childish claim that you are satanist. Trust me when I
say I am very close to satanists and you are NOT one. You would KNOW why if
you knew about them truly !

Stonehenge has been a mystery to us in England for centuries. It has many
legends attached to it. Putting the stones onstage would have been part of
an atmosphere. All the elements are of no relative to each other, but in
showbusiness, they add to a feel, rather than make any statement.
I thought the Spinal Tap spoof was brilliant !

Hey Jason.. I would have thought that Michael's post had put you
straight, but you're obviously far more deluded than I gave you credit
for.
Firstly this is w-a-y off-topic, if you want to babble on about Satan,
go find a newsgroup that cares. Sabbath isn't a religion, it's a
rock'n'roll band.. nothing more, nothing less. It's all about having
fun.
If you think listening to Black Sabbath makes you 'Evil' then you
really are a very sad & confused individual.

Yes and no. The "morning star" mentioned in Jewish texts (such as the
infamous Isaiah passage of, "How you have fallen, O morning star!") is indeed
similar to Venus, but the light-bearer god is not Venus, but Prometheus.
Furthermore, the Biblical reference makes it clear that it is a human being
Isaiah is referring to, and not a spiritual Satan, which came years later.
Also, there were no Christians who came up with 'Satan' but there were Jews,
and the 'satan' was one of their words, which meant advesary. But the whole
"arch-enemy of God" stuff came much later, when the Christians (who believed
in God's complete goodness) needed someone/something to pin the blame on.
Also, Baal has little to do with Beelzebub, etc.. except for the name, which
the Jews demonized in order to justify their monotheism. And as far as I
know, Behomoth has little to do with Baal; he was derived from a similar
large monster in Caananite mythology.

Lucifer, was Venus the Roman god: the bearer of light in mythology way

I'm not confused. They are the same. I hate to break it to ya man but
there was no Christians when people came up with the Pagan god Satan,

Hypothetically, if we suppose that magic/magick/majick actually works, then
presumably spells should be performed with a very precise and
skilful use of language to avoid terrible mistakes. I'm kind of worried that
Jason is going to turn himself into a frog.

Geez I don't think anybody is suggesting that at all. Its just an
interesting piece of history is all, stonehenge is just some piled up
rocks it has no meaning whatsoever. Those who made it might have
ascribed some meaning to it but today it is just a monument to ancient
mans abilities. The making of stonehenge is much more interesting then
whatever bizarro religions have laid claim to it.
I really doubt that any rationally thinking Sabbath fan believes in
evil anyway, thats not a real concept, its just fear in disguise. Who
actually thinks that certain things are actually "evil"??
Wasn't that Marylin Manson? hehehehe
This is such a rediculous thread.
Sorry Steven I disagree. Jason comes soemtimes with very interesting
topics. The one you quoted is a good example of this. Maybe he should
send it to alt.satanism or alt.archaeology (very good group), but still
very valid to read, anywhere.

Do you have a better word for Rape,murder,torture,etc? Ive read many books on
victims giving their accounts of rtiualistic abuse,torture and things that
couldent be described with a better word than evil. Read Satans underground,a
great book written by a victim of ritualistic sexual child abuse,mental abuse
and physical abuse.

Of course certain things are evil. Murdering anything without good cause
(self defense, some forms of revenge, etc..) is evil, as an example. Sabbath
believed in evil. Look at "Wicked World." They're not taking a neutral
stance on these issues, nor are they saying that they're just "OK." They're
calling a spade a spade - it's wicked.

Venus (Roman) is same as Aphrodite (Greek) - goddess, not god. Goddess of love

Vladimir, I know that Aphrodite and Venus are the same Goddess. However,
I think I read somewhere that it is possible that there was a time Venus
wasn't regarded as a female deity, but as the male god of destruction
and misery, resposible of a catastrophy of global proportions, taken
place long before the Sumerian Flood around 4000 BC Others are sure if
was a global thing, that happened around 9000 BC, and took care of for
example the disappearance of Atlantis. Venus would have been a comet in
that time, before she became a planet, and was known in that time as the
Lightbringer, Lucifer - of course the name was different. I don't know
for sure, but there are maybe some Sumerian claytablets where such a
thing is mentioned. Well a comet that bombs our planet could in later
times easily be seen as The Devil.
This doesn't mean I think something like Satan or The Devil exists, or
even god.
There is also a theory which suggests that the planet Lucifer exploded
and became the asteroïds circle between Mars and Jupiter.
Well, I have to examine this Venus = Lucifer thing thoroughly before I
can confirm or deny it.

Interesting.. indeed, if you watch the Big Screen during "Mr.Crowley"
you will view many candid scenes including Aleister moving around as if
in a trance or possessed in a flaming pentagram, rapidly moving images
involving symbols which were inherently meaningful to Mr. Crowley, and
flashes of artistic imagery from the Thoth deck (particularly the Wands,
or Fire Suit...)

Atheistic religious Satanists of the Church of Satan don't believe in child

I simply said "no matter what heinous acts" in a theoretical sense. I
don't know shit about Stonehenge and am not claiming any stories of
anything committed at Stonehenge. Its just a monument to me. But I bet
you people have been murdered there at many times in history,
religious or not. Just like any other place on earth.
You are taking this defending Stonehenge and Pagans thing way too
seriously IMHO. I was simply describing my view of evil and exactly
WHY stonehenge couldn't BE evil.
a contradiction in terms ?...atheistic means " without a deity"...but Satan
is a deity
God and Satan go hand in hand...to believe in one you have to believe in the
other.
Its called crap !(whichever way you look at it)

Not in my country they dont....but I also happen to know that youre right,
so I cant argue

I'm not disagreeing with that, but there are atheistic Satanists who regard
Satan as a sort of "icon" for human liberty. In fact, there is probably
quite a bit of information about them on the internet. They don't see Satan
as a real entity, but as a symbol, of sorts. Some of them perform rituals
but they don't believe they'll do anything - they merely wish to express some
form of spiritualism without actually believing in a God or deity.
I suppose it's no different from certain pagans who see the gods and
goddesses as symbols or archetypes of certain things without literally
believing in their existence.

"2 Become 1" & "Say You'll Be There" sounded OK actually. If the Girls
hadn't been singing all that together-forever bumf on top, I'd probably
have liked them. But then if your Auntie had been your Uncle she'd
probably have a pair of bollocks.

Why is it that the press never refer to the crimes of people like Father
Brendan Smyth (who had been molesting children for some 50 years) as
"Catholic child abuse"?
So what? I could make a list of "Infernal Names" and put all sorts of names
down, but that doesn't mean that those gods have anything to do with my
religion. All it means is that I spent some time, looked up the names of
some gods and goddesses from mythology, and put them into my list to make it
look more credible.
