  That’s part of the game. They’re reveling in the pearl clutching that claiming to literally worship Satan causes. The actual focus of their worship is more a philosophical ideal of the self and spiritual independence.

  The new Satanic Temple reveres a wider pantheon of pagan dieties that the Christians all called Satan but had their own individual cults. It’s more of a safe place for them to practice their own faiths while in community with eachother.

    I understood and understand your point, I just don’t think any satanist actually calls themself a satan worshipper other than maybe in jest.
