==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

ARMA VIRUMQUE CANO!

HAIL LIDDY!

HAIL SATAN!

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

Please notify us of your interest and you will be sent information on how to order the book once it is available. Distribution and wholesale inquiries are welcome.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo

IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to express a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look upon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?

Satanists who feel this way would be well served by reading ''Mein Kampf''. Hitler recognized that the masses are sheeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it, glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attributing it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

:This self-sacrificing will to give one's personal labor and if necessary one's own life for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan... Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. If he had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation requires that the individual renounce putting forward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)*
:
:In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national body... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sorry to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)
:
:'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most varying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjoyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No LaVey challenging each man to live for himself and take his own vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organisms, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not worry about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which '''that authority''' considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up being abused to select in favor of characteristics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothing to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on doing so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. The fit would prove their fitness by surviving. The unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. The so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial characteristics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Christianity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.** In doing so, he was defending the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Naziism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-Semitism is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Christianity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

==Sparks -What's Going on Out There==
by Peggy Nadramia

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of ''Rolling Stone'' contains a cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist could resist. ''RS'' often contains some first-class articles (chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.

The author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's on-screen persona while nevertheless revealing the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action, identity, and will. "Real tough people," he says, may feel pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pop hit, to "let someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist, I knew that cute lil Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum.

By now everyone knows this was the beginning of one of those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in ''The Choking Doberman'' and other titles. P&G is ''not'' affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon is not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Christian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesting enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. they'll I finally the moon and stars in a circle.

Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied handout advocating a boycott of their many products (including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the -- very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has successfully filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway distributors. Amway reps sell household products (like soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system similar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major TV talk shows like ''Donahue'' and ''Morton Downey, Jr.'' and has a weekday radio talk show called ''Talk Back'', syndicated nationwide on many Christian networks. Bob has a thing for Satanists, and loves to read aloud from the pages of ''The Satanic Bible'' and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and now novelist (''Dead Air''. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on ''Talk Back'' have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts," and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:

"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-ins are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than another broadcaster!

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your 
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears. 
You flick your tongue to taste my skin. 
I smile at this benediction. 
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard? 

I've seen you at the hunt; my heart has leapt with 
the beauty of your movements. 
You sink to your haunches in the grass, 
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. 
When the prey is close enough to capture, 
you boil with movement, a streak of black, 
white teeth flashing. 
You kill the squirrel quickly, 
although mercy is not what you feel. 
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, 
Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, 
Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion. 
You taste the fresh meat, by the rest 
for a day of possible hunger. 

They tell me dogs want to be free. 
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's 
where you want to be. 
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man 
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. 
Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. 
Once we were the same, 
predators who lived in packs. 
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth 
young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. 
I see the Satan in you every moment, 
even when you sleep 
in utter peace and relaxation. 
So why shouldn't your simple regard 
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings? 
Hail, to you who neither need 
nor want such accolade, 
Hail, child of my heart.

==ODDITORIUM (uncorrected)==
by Peggy Nadramia

:EXIT #5, designed and produced by George Petros. (Exit Magazine, New York, 1991; 96 pages, ISSN 0883-9158, $13.00.) Subtitled ''Tomorrow's (Words and Pictures) Today'', this large-size (11" X 14'1 magazine is printed on newsprint With a three color cover, and features artwork and writing by Mark Mothersbaugh, Peter H. Gilmore, Mark David Chapman, Joe Coleman, Zeena LaVey, Nikolas Schreck and Adam Parfrey, among others. The largest thematic piece in the issue is a series of Nietzsche quotes illustrated by various and sundry artists and characters from the "apocalypse underground," and conceived by John Aes-Nihil. I enjoyed most the ''New York Times'' pages from April 20, 1999, especially the news item reporting the holdup and murder of Mick Jagger and Jeri Hall outside a fashionable Moscow restaurant by two Neo-Nazi teens. There's also an interesting, definitely politically incorrect piece about slavery, and a hilarious fill-in-the-blanks from an actual children's religious schoolbook, including pasted-in photos of Charlie Manson. There are rarely-seen examples of the work of painter Robert Williams, a long article about the history of cannibalism, an overview of "The Swastika: Sacred and Profane," and much, much more. For me, the weak spot in this journal from Hell is a three page surreal "comic strip" using only the silhouette of a penis. Credit for the arresting layout goes to Nancy Petros, editor and art director. You can order ''Exit #5'' from See/Hear (see address elsewhere in this column).

:HOLLYWOOD AND THE SUPERNATURAL by Sherry Hansen-Steiger and Brad Steiger. (St. Martm's Press. New York, 1990; 269 pages, ISBN 0-312-05098-4, $19.95, hardcover.) Takes a sort of supermarket tabloid, gee-whiz-wow handle on the supernatural in general and the star-crossed lives of movie stars in particular, including a "directory of mediums, channels and psychics." The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headings like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and "Peter Sellers" Guidance From the Spirit World." The strong point of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpoint on the portrayal of Satan and things Satanic in present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and including the fact that LaVey saved the life of Mansfield's son Zoltan through magical intervention. Most revelatory of all is Bob Slatzer's recounting of his night spent with LaVey outside of Marilyn Monroe's last home, where together they witnessed the materialization of the late actress. When I consulted the High Priest as to the accuracy of this account he verified it reluctantly; it is not something he speaks of often.

:WHO IS THAT? by Warren B. Meyers. (Carol Publishing, New York, 1991; 63 pages, ISBN 0-8065-0535-4, $7.95, softcover.) Finally reprinted, a wonderful little compendium of all those well-known faces from the late show, those extras and character actors we knew by sight and type, but whose names never graced a marquee or garnered a mention in a movie magazine. As the editor himself testifies, "if the identity of the assorted cops, hillbillies, landladies, good-hearted tramps, stoolies, moppets, mad scientists and
what-have-you is driving you mad as they flit across your TV screens...then more likely than not, you'll get your answer here." From a Satanic standpoint, what this collection of photos accomplishes, is to point out the recurring types we see every day. There's a chapter entitled, "Tough Tomatoes, Or, My, Isn't She Cheap?" and one called "Losers: He Should Have Stood in Bed." If you're out to change your look to accomplish certain goals or simply to reinforce your strengthening core self you might find some models in these pages. Meyers also gives a tight little analysis of the moviegoing experience in his Preface, and the definition is quite magical: "Your ticket admitted you into a grotto-like world in which your anonymity was perfectly protected by the gentle enveloping darkness, though you were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And in return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was larger than life, your reactions to it were also larger than life; for your laughter, your sympathy or your tears merged with the same reaction of every other member of the audience, and came back to you, magnified a hundred-fold."

:STONE CITY by Mitchell Smith. (Signet, New York, 1990; 634 pages, ISBN 0-451-16930-l, $5.99, paperback.) A big fat serial killer/mystery novel that details life ma 1arge state prison like no novel has before. The main character is in for vehicular homicide resulting from drunken driving: he's a history teacher, completely unused to the violent life he must now lead as he goes from block to block, cell to cell t earning cigarette money by teaching hardened criminals how to read and write. The writing is top-notch, suspenseful, hard-edged but also almost poetic at times. The cast of characters includes the Lifers, the Bikers, and a prison librarian who makes Hannibal Lecter look like a nice guy. Grab it for those last beach days; a very satisfying read.

:GUIGNOIR AND OTHER FURIES edited by George Hatch- (Horror's Head Press, New York, 1991; 141 pages, $6.95, no ISBN, softcover.) A collection of thirteen tales of psychological terror, violence and suspense, illustrated by Peter H. Gilmore. Authors include Graham Watkins, Kevin J. Anderson and Nancy Holder. Hatch invented his title by combining the two major influences on his editorial outlook: the Grand Guignol and Film Noir. His introduction looks at the increasingly stressful effect that mounting violence is having on individuals: "You have been assimilated into a noirish landscape of menace, tension and moral instability where the intrinsically dangerous nature of man is reflected in and refracted through the cracked mirrors and warped prisms of emotional pain and psychological trauma... Such extremities are the focus of the stories in this anthology." Of particular note is one of the final stories, "The Concrete Labyrinth" by Gerard Houarner, where a woman is confronted With the terrifying strength of mob consciousness, finally submitting to it. Available for $8.00 (includes postage and handling) from Horror's Head Press, 140 Dickie Ave. Staten Island, NY 10314. Make check/money order payable to George Hatch.

:DARK LILY# 13 edited by Dark Lily, subtitled 'Toe Reality of the Left Hand Path." (Dark Lily. London, 1991; 25 pages, ISSN 0994-6006, $4.00/issue, $16.00/4-issue subscription, paper cover.) A responsible, thoughtful Satanist journal that appears regularly and uses no
by-lines. Articles this time around include "The Allure of Misery" and "Spot the Resemblance," as well as letters and a compendium of products and organizations that maybe of interest to readers. Definitely worth your while to stay on top of this one. (When ordering, send postal money orders or bank draughts; foreign (meaning: U.S.) checks will not be accepted.)

:NON: TOTAL WAR. LIVE IN JAPAN performed by Boyd Rice and Non on VHS videocassette. This performance, which includes four black-clad drummers and the vocalizations of Boyd Rice and Rose McDowell, is an electrifying, militaristic ritual celebrating Satanic strength and righteous anger. Includes the songs "Holy War" (to the tune of "Silent Night and "Vengeance." "Do you want total war?" asks Rice, "to throw out Christ and bring back Thor?" Recorded on July 3rd, 1989 in Osaka, Japan, taped voiceovers includes snippets of Travis Bickle's speech from Taxi Driver ("Here's one man who stood up against the scum...") and some Beethoven. What characterizes both Rice's expressed philosophy and the staging of this performance is ''order'', these are not the inaudible rantings and frenetic gyrations of many "underground" musical artists. In fact, the players march onstage, their black berets all cocked at the same angle.

:THE CHURCH OF WAR: TELEVISIONARY MINISTRY CAMPAIGN by C.O.W.AN. Transmission #1 on videocassette. A torchlit march to set ablaze a giant standing "Ing" rune (signifying, a new life or way), followed by a stirring speech given in a candlelit TV studio and climaxing in a song, "The Ninth Bell Tolls" sung to the tune of "Amazing Grace." The Church of War's philosophy and attitude is virtually the same as the Church of Satan's, and local Satanists exposed to this tape were inspired and impressed. What C.O.W.A.N. wants to do now is get this thing televised on public access cable TV, and they have succeeded m doing so m many cities already. If your local cable network has public access programming, the Church of War would appreciate your forwarding all necessary application information to them at P.O. Box 15, Altadena, CA 91003. You may be able to obtain your own copy of this transmission through your kindness and willingness to share similar material with their leader, Doran.

:"MACHIAVELLIAN MONKEYS" an article James Shreeve, OMNI Magazine, June, 1991. Guest Reviewer R. Elizabeth Fox.

Here's a lighthearted article to tickle your Satanic fancy. The author describes, in a very entertaining style, the recent discovery- of a previously unnoticed behavior pattern among the primates. This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is described as tactical deception, to be distinguished from the ordinary sort of deception, such as making oneself look like a twig, or bigger and meaner than one's predators, or protective coloration. Tactical deception is the out-and-out trickery used to get what one wants, usually by fooling the members of one's own species, rather than other Clitters. The use of this tactical deception seems to be directly linked to brain size. It is also becoming evident that this tactical deception is premeditated, not only in man. the sneakiest of the primates, but also among the rest of his primate cousins. I enjoyed being reminded of my animalistic nature. I also like to snigger at another hole in the "all-animals-and-aboriginal-humans-are-nobler-than humans" theory.

:THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and military. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show. Now I wish to simply suggest that every single one of you should buy, read and study this book very carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a "law enforcement guru" by ''Soldier of Fortune'' magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous publications from ''Black Belt'' magazine to ''Combat Handguns'' magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must have known and studied and with most of the same people I used to hang out with. John Keehan a.k.a. the infamous "Count Dante") was one of the first instructors in open hand defense in the '60s and Ayoob was on of the Count's disciples as well! Just admitting this was ''verboten'' in the martial arts world after John raided a competing dojo, resulting in the death of at least one person involved, but Ayoob has exhibited the Satanic trait of loyalty by giving credit where credit is due!

Ayoob runs Lethal ''FOIC's Institute'' (P.O. Box 122, Concord, NH 03301) and if you have a clean criminal record you can join some of the most prestigious corporations and governments to learn effective armed and unarmed self-defense...or you can read this book and get to work. Beginning with assessing the dangers facing the individual in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfighting techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashing some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Jury will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will be tried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that if he had to shoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked him if was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation. Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derringer which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA. If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Jury why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong for the government to require you to "buy" permission to pack a firearm. What matters, as always, is the reality of the situation and the consequences if you try to ignore that reality.

The passive defense section is probably the most important part of the book since preparation is everything in not ending up a victim. You may never know how many problems you averted by keeping your car door locked when driving in stop-and-go city traffic. You may never know how many would-be burglaries of your home were averted by the selection of the right watchdog. You may never know, and so what? You don't want to know. You just want to enjoy the indulgences of life with minimum hassle, right?

Finally, I really believe that the section on the use of force was superb. If you can't legally carry a gun, what weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you carry what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Lite). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninja fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Carry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be very, very careful when using it as a steel "super-baton." If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

:THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world history.

This production of ''The God-Eater'' is set in the year 1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidden from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrifices.

In the actual script of ''The God-Eater'' the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human misery is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and irrational series of acts of human happiness is secured (story of the play). Hence, attacks on the Mystics of History need not cause us to condemn Mysticism. Also, the knowledge of Good and Evil is a Tree whose fruit Man has not yet tasted; So that the devil cheated Adam; or (more probably) Eve cheated Adam. Unless (most probable of all) God cheated the Devil, and the fruit was a common apple after all. Cf. H. Maudsley, 'Life in Mind and Conduct.'"

The play was augmented by spectacular lighting and guitar music written, recorded and performed by Scott Stets and the play's musical director, Brendan O'Toole. The music reflected Eastern modes and scales that elicited a Sitar-like quality from the guitars. Also used during the show was the ritual-like music of Led Zeppelin (Led Zeppelin's guitarist Jimmy Page recorded soundtrack music for Kenneth Anger's film ''Lucifer Rising'' and owns Boleskine House, the Beast's one-time Highland home).

Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's "The Shadow Over Innsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manuscripts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manuscripts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

:THE TEMPLE AND THE LODGE by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. (Arcade Publishing, New York, 1989; 306 pages, includes maps and photographs, ISBN 1-55970-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.

If you've been following the tracings of real Satanism through history that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a mystery as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic.''

These folk have previously brought us more speculative material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

:THE MANSON FAMILY SINGS THE SONGS OF CHARLES MANSON (Previously Unreleased Material Recorded in 1970) Commodity Network, catalog# DR-999, 1991. LP on white vinyl available for $10 plus $2 postage from A.N. Productions, P.O. Box 93982, Hollywood, CA 90093. Postal Money Orders only. Limited to a 999 copies.

Guest reviewers: Michael Moynihan and Lance Barton

"Brothers slay brothers;
Sisters' children
Shed each other's blood.
Hard is the world;
Sensual sin grows huge.
There are sword-ages, axe-ages;
Shields are cleft in twain;
Storm-ages, murder-ages;
Till the world falls dead,
And men no longer spare Or pity one another."
''Norse Mythology'' (R.B. Anderson)

The signs are here that preparations are underway for Ragnarok and the Twilight of the Gods, and the Norse visions of apocalypse ling with a stronger bell of truth than the claims of the Christian prophecies. Toe age of throatslicing is back, and the battle hymns are already being performed on THE MANSON FAMILY SINGS.

Generally the only musical material available of Charles Manson that one locate is in the form of a bootleg version of the LIE LP which was originally issued on the ESP Disk label at the time of the Tate/LaBianca murders trial. While this contained some classic material, it only shows the barest surface to the depths of thought and creativity which Manson invests into his music. Here finally in The FAMILY SINGS release are we allowed to look much further into the soul of the man and witness the vision of his circle. Manson himself does not appear on the LP, although his spirit is unquestionably present. It seems that after the arrests and trials had begun, a friend of the "family's" offered the comrades who were still at large the use of his recording studio. From a reliable source it has been found out that the male figure who both sings much of the main vocals on the record, as well as playing very competent guitar throughout, is none other than Steve Grogan, a.k.a. "Clem" The songs themselves, all written by Manson, are incredible in their complexity and the poetry of the lyrics. Oftentimes the various females who appear on the LP will sing ethereal background harmonies with such eerie lyrics as DIE TO BE DIE... One could probably hear this record hundreds of times and still find new, previously unnoticed phrases in the myriad twists and turns of the music.

Listening to this record brings back a time when music was a tool to lift man's spirit, to inspire, to drive: not simply something to serve as "cruise control" background music for shopping mall ambience. The message is loud and clear: even those who do not keep up with the so-called "Manson mystique" will be intoxicated by the beautiful power behind this full length LP. Many who may have heard television interviews or seen actual pieces of writing by Manson may have found his words confusing or his ideas hard to understand when voiced in his unique way of speaking which often borders on being stream-of-consciousness. Not so with the songs on this recording. While many of his ideas are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as to be revelations. Music is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of side one states, ''HOW ELSE DO YOU THINK I COULD TALK WITH YOU EXCEPT THROUGH THE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU THINK I COULD STOP THE CONFUSION IN YOUR MIND? SO COME ON. AND SING THESE SONGS, AS YOU COME ALONG TO THE MUSIC... EACH UNTO HIS OWN KIND.'' The folk style of the music is haunting when laid alongside the amazing lyrics which certainly pull no punches-- ''WHEN YOU SEE THE CHILDREN WITH THE X'S ON THEIR HEADS, IF YOU DARE TO LOOK AT THEM SOON YOU WILL BE DEAD'' (This particular phrase was spontaneously uttered by one of the girls as they sang together). One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that no one can deny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, ''NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG...'', definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most well-known as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an ''a capella'' version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind of an Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other sentiments like "Look inside yourself for your father"-- this is one "family" that communes intimately with the spirits of its ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past, men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration of Ragnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplified in Simple verses in Manson's lyrical poetry: ''THE FIELDS THEY ARE A'GOLDEN- THE CYCLE WILL COMPLETE; IN ORDER TO HARVEST THE GRAIN, YOU HAVE TO CUT THE WHEAT.''

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majority will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will any dare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will be singing that haunting refrain:

NO WRONG, NO WRONG- COME ALONG...

IN PURSUIT OF SATAN. THE POUCE AND TiiE
OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting. Here at last is a volume that fills the order.
Hicks, a former police officer, is presently a criminal

RAGNAROK FROM

justice analyst who advises Virginia law enforcement agencies. He continues work that began in the CSER's

ground-breaking report Satanism in Amenca (to which he wrote an appendJx) by rationally covering the whole field of

some hope for the future. Essential reading for anyone Who

this booklet is written in a style reminiscent of The EDWARD SCISSORHANDS directed by Tim Burton.

contemponuy Satanism-as-conspiracy (a model of crJmina1 behavior which is founded on no hard evidence), from the poor wretches suffering from MPD to the profesSional "Satan Busters" who are making a livelihood off of the promotion of this scam that folklorists are now studying as a new urban legend. Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention

AND SEX ON CAMPUS by Dinesh D'Souza. ('Ihe Free Press, New York. 1991; 319 pages, ISBN 0-02-908100-9, $19.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

cares about the direction of education.

THE BIG BANG NEVER HAPPENED by Eric Lerner.
(nmes Books, New York, 1991; 466 pages, ISBN ,I
0-8129-1853-3, $21.95, hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

We were delighted to receive these two wonderful releases from the dynamic folks at Psychick Release PCP. and these are truly exemplary efforts. The first combination of White Stains "hyperdelic" music with the haunting invocations of Psychick TV takes one on a Journey of musical consciousness trance-formation. More intense than some of P'TV's recent solo efforts, it is still a logical outgrowth of previous recordings. SWEDISH EXOTICA presents a veritable smorgasbord of Swedish bands that will generally be unfamiliar to the American listener. Here's where you can explore representative cuts from a wide range of some of the best talent on the Swedish scene. Also good for.putting on and quizzing friends who claim to be know-it-alls to see if they can indeed name the artists.

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his vision to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about why we should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Price is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outsider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discussions afterwards.

SILENCE OF THE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thriller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, who uses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he was captured by a law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, if he let himself go. would be one himself (this is all material that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

==Satanist, Heal Thyself! I'd Rather Not...==
by Magdalene Graham

I HAD A LOVELY COMPLIMENT yesterday, when the locai I milk supplier called at my new apartment (at 8:30 a.m.) to
arrange milk deliveries. I am an early riser. Low-necked dress, fully made-up and perfume concocted exclustvely for
me by Sorcerer's Apprentice. Milkman gazed at me leanmg 1 on my walking-frame and said 'You don't look like an in- valid." I said '1nvalidity is in the mind, not in the body." fDI:s ∑ Adept told me that, long ago - he was right as always,
though it often takes time to appreciate the truth of his
statements). Milkman said "It's a pity more people don't
think like that." I could have replied (but I didn't) that it's rï1
only for Satanists.

Being classified as Disabled has more advantages than disadvantages. I have a guaranteed income which, With aJ1 the allowances and supplements and rebates and anything else that's going, amounts to as much as an over-taxed wage-slave would earn fornine-to-five hard labor, and I have to do nothing for it. I can, of course, supplement that in-
come (discreetly). I have always hated housework and would ) pay a cleaner in preference to taking a holiday; now my servants are paid by the Government. Holiday also comes free
if I fancy a trip to the seaside...might be fun.

As I progress down the street in my motorized wheelchair, traffic makes wayfor me. People open doors and rush to help. It makes them feel good, so I'm doing them a favor.
In the clothes-shops, the assistant will be only too delighted \
to help Madam try on the dresses. Being bisexual, I've had I
some interesting encounters in fitting-rooms - must be the feminine equivalent of "cottages."

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot
walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

So, you see, it is possible to be a Satanic Witch in a wheelchair.

==Wimpy Wiccans and Would-Be Wiccans==
I USED TO REALLY HOLD OUT HOPE for the non-Satanists

deal for big-shot immortals who cannot ever die, they BEUEVE tn Heaven/Side. Satanists DOUBT
No, Wiccan. I agree With your rejectlon of being a

Satanist. You're not even close. I also agree that youare not
a Witch. Witches don't just move through life tn an etheric stupor, healing sweet little fwzy animals and eating granola!
Witches, REAL Witches, ARE Satanic! They take great big

They go crazy by stupidly swallowing stupid want

bites out of life and swallow them whole! Witches crush their enemies and are feared, not pitied! Witches kick ass, seduce men and love life! I have met REAL Witches and they DO get what they want, when and how they want it. They don't worship nature, they RULE it!

Wimpy Wiccans, I pity you. You are like a distorted image, a broken mirror. You claim the fame but fear the Name AND WEIL YOU SHOULD! You who lack any power tn this world toy With the symbols of Satan! You who would be witches, deny the Name! You who would ride the night, control the mtnds of men and rise to glory, instead wallow tn the mud of your identical Christian twtn.
I reject you and yours. and BYTI-IE POWER OF IBE

I CURSE YOU!
May you continue to be your own worst punishment.

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God.

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

Please notify us of your interest and you will be sent information on how to order the book once it is available. Distribution and wholesale inquiries are welcome.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo

IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to express a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look upon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?

Satanists who feel this way would be well served by reading ''Mein Kampf''. Hitler recognized that the masses are sheeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it, glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attributing it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

:This self-sacrificing will to give one's personal labor and if necessary one's own life for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan... Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. If he had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation requires that the individual renounce putting forward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)*
:
:In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national body... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sorry to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)
:
:'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most varying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjoyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No LaVey challenging each man to live for himself and take his own vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organisms, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not worry about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which '''that authority''' considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up being abused to select in favor of characteristics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothing to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on doing so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. The fit would prove their fitness by surviving. The unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. The so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial characteristics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Christianity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.** In doing so, he was defending the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Naziism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-Semitism is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Christianity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

==Sparks -What's Going on Out There==
by Peggy Nadramia

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of ''Rolling Stone'' contains a cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist could resist. ''RS'' often contains some first-class articles (chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.

The author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's on-screen persona while nevertheless revealing the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action, identity, and will. "Real tough people," he says, may feel pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pop hit, to "let someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist, I knew that cute lil Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum.

By now everyone knows this was the beginning of one of those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in ''The Choking Doberman'' and other titles. P&G is ''not'' affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon is not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Christian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesting enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. they'll I finally the moon and stars in a circle.

Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied handout advocating a boycott of their many products (including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the -- very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has successfully filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway distributors. Amway reps sell household products (like soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system similar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major TV talk shows like ''Donahue'' and ''Morton Downey, Jr.'' and has a weekday radio talk show called ''Talk Back'', syndicated nationwide on many Christian networks. Bob has a thing for Satanists, and loves to read aloud from the pages of ''The Satanic Bible'' and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and now novelist (''Dead Air''. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on ''Talk Back'' have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts," and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:

"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-ins are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than another broadcaster!

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your 
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears. 
You flick your tongue to taste my skin. 
I smile at this benediction. 
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard? 

I've seen you at the hunt; my heart has leapt with 
the beauty of your movements. 
You sink to your haunches in the grass, 
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. 
When the prey is close enough to capture, 
you boil with movement, a streak of black, 
white teeth flashing. 
You kill the squirrel quickly, 
although mercy is not what you feel. 
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, 
Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, 
Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion. 
You taste the fresh meat, by the rest 
for a day of possible hunger. 

They tell me dogs want to be free. 
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's 
where you want to be. 
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man 
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. 
Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. 
Once we were the same, 
predators who lived in packs. 
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth 
young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. 
I see the Satan in you every moment, 
even when you sleep 
in utter peace and relaxation. 
So why shouldn't your simple regard 
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings? 
Hail, to you who neither need 
nor want such accolade, 
Hail, child of my heart.

EXIT #5, designed and produced by George Petros. (Exit Magazine, New York, 1991; 96 pages, ISSN 0883-9158, $13.00.) Subtitled ''Tomorrow's (Words and Pictures) Today'', this large-size (11" X 14'1 magazine is printed on newsprint With a three color cover, and features artwork and writing by Mark Mothersbaugh, Peter H. Gilmore, Mark David Chapman, Joe Coleman, Zeena LaVey, Nikolas Schreck and Adam Parfrey, among others. The largest thematic piece in the issue is a series of Nietzsche quotes illustrated by various and sundry artists and characters from the "apocalypse underground," and conceived by John Aes-Nihil. I enjoyed most the ''New York Times'' pages from April 20, 1999, especially the news item reporting the holdup and murder of Mick Jagger and Jeri Hall outside a fashionable Moscow restaurant by two Neo-Nazi teens. There's also an interesting, definitely politically incorrect piece about slavery, and a hilarious fill-in-the-blanks from an actual children's religious schoolbook, including pasted-in photos of Charlie Manson. There are rarely-seen examples of the work of painter Robert Williams, a long article about the history of cannibalism, an overview of "The Swastika: Sacred and Profane," and much, much more. For me, the weak spot in this journal from Hell is a three page surreal "comic strip" using only the silhouette of a penis. Credit for the arresting layout goes to Nancy Petros, editor and art director. You can order ''Exit #5'' from See/Hear (see address elsewhere in this column).

HOLLYWOOD AND THE SUPERNATURAL by Sherry Hansen-Steiger and Brad Steiger. (St. Martm's Press. New York, 1990; 269 pages, ISBN 0-312-05098-4, $19.95, hardcover.) Takes a sort of supermarket tabloid, gee-whiz-wow handle on the supernatural in general and the star-crossed lives of movie stars in particular, including a "directory of mediums, channels and psychics." The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headings like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and "Peter Sellers" Guidance From the Spirit World." The strong point of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpoint on the portrayal of Satan and things Satanic in present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and including the fact that LaVey saved the life of Mansfield's son Zoltan through magical intervention. Most revelatory of all is Bob Slatzer's recounting of his night spent with LaVey outside of Marilyn Monroe's last home, where together they witnessed the materialization of the late actress. When I consulted the High Priest as to the accuracy of this account he verified it reluctantly; it is not something he speaks of often.

WHO IS THAT? by Warren B. Meyers. (Carol Publishing, New York, 1991; 63 pages, ISBN 0-8065-0535-4, $7.95, softcover.) Finally reprinted, a wonderful little compendium of all those well-known faces from the late show, those extras and character actors we knew by sight and type, but whose names never graced a marquee or garnered a mention in a movie magazine. As the editor himself testifies, "if the identity of the assorted cops, hillbillies, landladies, good-hearted tramps, stoolies, moppets, mad scientists and
what-have-you is driving you mad as they flit across your TV screens...then more likely than not, you'll get your answer here." From a Satanic standpoint, what this collection of photos accomplishes, is to point out the recurring types we see every day. There's a chapter entitled, "Tough Tomatoes, Or, My, Isn't She Cheap?" and one called "Losers: He Should Have Stood in Bed." If you're out to change your look to accomplish certain goals or simply to reinforce your strengthening core self you might find some models in these pages. Meyers also gives a tight little analysis of the moviegoing experience in his Preface, and the definition is quite magical: "Your ticket admitted you into a grotto-like world in which your anonymity was perfectly protected by the gentle enveloping darkness, though you were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And in return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was larger than life, your reactions to it were also larger than life; for your laughter, your sympathy or your tears merged with the same reaction of every other member of the audience, and came back to you, magnified a hundred-fold."

STONE CITY by Mitchell Smith. (Signet, New York, 1990; 634 pages, ISBN 0-451-16930-l, $5.99, paperback.) A big fat serial killer/mystery novel that details life ma 1arge state prison like no novel has before. The main character is in for vehicular homicide resulting from drunken driving: he's a history teacher, completely unused to the violent life he must now lead as he goes from block to block, cell to cell t earning cigarette money by teaching hardened criminals how to read and write. The writing is top-notch, suspenseful, hard-edged but also almost poetic at times. The cast of characters includes the Lifers, the Bikers, and a prison librarian who makes Hannibal Lecter look like a nice guy. Grab it for those last beach days; a very satisfying read.

GUIGNOIR AND OTHER FURIES edited by George Hatch- (Horror's Head Press, New York, 1991; 141 pages, $6.95, no ISBN, softcover.) A collection of thirteen tales of psychological terror, violence and suspense, illustrated by Peter H. Gilmore. Authors include Graham Watkins, Kevin J. Anderson and Nancy Holder. Hatch invented his title by combining the two major influences on his editorial outlook: the Grand Guignol and Film Noir. His introduction looks at the increasingly stressful effect that mounting violence is having on individuals: "You have been assimilated into a noirish landscape of menace, tension and moral instability where the intrinsically dangerous nature of man is reflected in and refracted through the cracked mirrors and warped prisms of emotional pain and psychological trauma... Such extremities are the focus of the stories in this anthology." Of particular note is one of the final stories, "The Concrete Labyrinth" by Gerard Houarner, where a woman is confronted With the terrifying strength of mob consciousness, finally submitting to it. Available for $8.00 (includes postage and handling) from Horror's Head Press, 140 Dickie Ave. Staten Island, NY 10314. Make check/money order payable to George Hatch.

DARK LILY# 13 edited by Dark Lily, subtitled 'Toe Reality of the Left Hand Path." (Dark Lily. London, 1991; 25 pages, ISSN 0994-6006, $4.00/issue, $16.00/4-issue subscription, paper cover.) A responsible, thoughtful Satanist journal that appears regularly and uses no
by-lines. Articles this time around include "The Allure of Misery" and "Spot the Resemblance," as well as letters and a compendium of products and organizations that maybe of interest to readers. Definitely worth your while to stay on top of this one. (When ordering, send postal money orders or bank draughts; foreign (meaning: U.S.) checks will not be accepted.)

NON: TOTAL WAR. LIVE IN JAPAN performed by Boyd Rice and Non on VHS videocassette. This performance, which includes four black-clad drummers and the vocalizations of Boyd Rice and Rose McDowell, is an electrifying, militaristic ritual celebrating Satanic strength and righteous anger. Includes the songs "Holy War" (to the tune of "Silent Night and "Vengeance." "Do you want total war?" asks Rice, "to throw out Christ and bring back Thor?" Recorded on July 3rd, 1989 in Osaka, Japan, taped voiceovers includes snippets of Travis Bickle's speech from Taxi Driver ("Here's one man who stood up against the scum...") and some Beethoven. What characterizes both Rice's expressed philosophy and the staging of this performance is ''order'', these are not the inaudible rantings and frenetic gyrations of many "underground" musical artists. In fact, the players march onstage, their black berets all cocked at the same angle.

THE CHURCH OF WAR: TELEVISIONARY MINISTRY CAMPAIGN by C.O.W.AN. Transmission #1 on videocassette. A torchlit march to set ablaze a giant standing "Ing" rune (signifying, a new life or way), followed by a stirring speech given in a candlelit TV studio and climaxing in a song, "The Ninth Bell Tolls" sung to the tune of "Amazing Grace." The Church of War's philosophy and attitude is virtually the same as the Church of Satan's, and local Satanists exposed to this tape were inspired and impressed. What C.O.W.A.N. wants to do now is get this thing televised on public access cable TV, and they have succeeded m doing so m many cities already. If your local cable network has public access programming, the Church of War would appreciate your forwarding all necessary application information to them at P.O. Box 15, Altadena, CA 91003.

"MACHIAVELLIAN MONKEYS" an article James Shreeve, OMNI Magazine, June, 1991. Guest Reviewer R. Elizabeth Fox.

Here's a lighthearted article to tickle your Satanic fancy. The author describes, in a very entertaining style, the recent discovery- of a previously unnoticed behavior pattern among the primates. This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is described as tactical deception, to be distinguished from the ordinary sort of deception, such as making oneself look like a twig, or bigger and meaner than one's predators, or protective coloration. Tactical deception is the out-and-out trickery used to get what one wants, usually by fooling the members of one's own species, rather than other Clitters. The use of this tactical deception seems to be directly linked to brain size. It is also becoming evident that this tactical deception is premeditated, not only in man. the sneakiest of the primates, but also among the rest of his primate cousins. I enjoyed being reminded of my animalistic nature. I also like to snigger at another hole in the "all-animals-and-aboriginal-humans-are-nobler-than humans" theory.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and military. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show. Now I wish to simply suggest that every single one of you should buy, read and study this book very carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a "law enforcement guru" by ''Soldier of Fortune'' magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous publications from ''Black Belt'' magazine to ''Combat Handguns'' magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must have known and studied and with most of the same people I used to hang out with. John Keehan a.k.a. the infamous "Count Dante") was one of the first instructors in open hand defense in the '60s and Ayoob was on of the Count's disciples as well! Just admitting this was ''verboten'' in the martial arts world after John raided a competing dojo, resulting in the death of at least one person involved, but Ayoob has exhibited the Satanic trait of loyalty by giving credit where credit is due!

Ayoob runs Lethal ''FOIC's Institute'' (P.O. Box 122, Concord, NH 03301) and if you have a clean criminal record you can join some of the most prestigious corporations and governments to learn effective armed and unarmed self-defense...or you can read this book and get to work. Beginning with assessing the dangers facing the individual in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfighting techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashing some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Jury will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will be tried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that if he had to shoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked him if was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation. Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derringer which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA. If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Jury why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong for the government to require you to "buy" permission to pack a firearm. What matters, as always, is the reality of the situation and the consequences if you try to ignore that reality.

The passive defense section is probably the most important part of the book since preparation is everything in not ending up a victim. You may never know how many problems you averted by keeping your car door locked when driving in stop-and-go city traffic. You may never know how many would-be burglaries of your home were averted by the selection of the right watchdog. You may never know, and so what? You don't want to know. You just want to enjoy the indulgences of life with minimum hassle, right?

Finally, I really believe that the section on the use of force was superb. If you can't legally carry a gun, what cheated Adam. Unless (most probable of all) God cheated the Devil, and the fruit was a common apple after all. Cf. H. Maudsley, 'Ufe in Mind and Conduct."'

The play was augmented by spectacular lighting and guitar music written, recorded and performed by Scott Stets and the play's musical director, Brendan O'Toole. The music reflected Eastern modes and scales that elicited a Sitar-like quality from the guitars. Also used during the show was the ritual-like music of Led Zeppelin (Led Zeppelin's guitarist Jimmy Page recorded soundtrack music for Kenneth

maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explosions to cause
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be very, very careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world history.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidden from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrifices.

In the actual script of "The God-Eater" the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human misery is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Anger's film Lucifer Rising and owns Boleskine House, the Beast's one-time Highland home). Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over Innsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manuscripts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manuscripts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

THE TEMPLE AND THE LODGE by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. (Arcade Publishing, New York, 1989; 306 pages, includes maps and photographs, ISBN 1-55970-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.

If you've been following the tracings of real Satanism through history that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a mystery as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."

These folk have previously brought us more speculative material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

which Manson invests into his music. Here finally in The FAMILY SINGS release are we allowed to look much further into the soul of the man and witness the vision of his drcl Manson himself does not appear on the LP, although his e.

ustening to this record brings back a time when music
was a tool to lift man's spirit, to inspire, to drive: not Simply something to serve as "cruise control" background music for shopping mall ambience. The message is loud and clear:
even those who do not keep up with the so-called ''Manson
mystique" will be intoxicated by the beautiful power behind thiS full length LP. Many who may have heard television tnterviews or seen actual pieces of writing by Manson may
ï have found his words confusing or his ideas hard to understand when voiced in his unique way of speaking which often borders on being stream-of-consciousness. Not so with the songs on this recording. While many of his ideas
are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as
to be revelations. MuSic is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of Side one states, HOW ELSE DO YOU7HJNK I COUI.D TAI.K Wll1l YOU EXCE/TI'THROUGH 'IHE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU7HINK I COUI.D S'IOP'IHE CONFUSION IN YOURMIND? SO COME ON.

YOU WILL BE DEAD ('This particular phrase was spontaneously uttered by one of the girls as they sang together). One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the
knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting
accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majortty will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will anydare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will beSinging that haunting refrain:

OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting. Here at last is a volume that fills the order.

Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention
that it deserves because it proves that the gruesome ravings are just that.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his vision to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about why we should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Price is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outsider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discussions afterwards.

SILENCE OF THE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thriller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, who uses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he was captured by a law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, if he let himself go. would be one himself (this is all material that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s
thatI was, at thiS point in the discussion. uninterested in anything thiS person bad to say on any subject, due to her overwhelming presumptuousness. If I had known ahead of time that she bated the writingS of Ayn Rand, I wouldn't have said as the first thing upon meeting her, "Oh you're the one who doesn't like Ayn Rand. We're gonna have to havea talk."I call thiS the command to look...like an asshole! (See J. Waynes's article in TBF Vol. 2, #2.) Satanists strive for ctvil17.ed behavior, until brutality becomes necessary.
If Satanists refuse to be brought down to the level of the
fools to which we are in opposition, maybe our arguments will be HEARD- Even rational arguments will be lost on rational people if the manner in which they're presented 1s uncouth. Behavior like rve been describing 1s a sign of weakness, something I really despise. Remember those tmmortal

Another form of excuse-making to avoid 1s pretentious

words from the Book of Satan:
'"Ibrice cursed are the weak whose tnsecurity makes
them vile, for they shall serve and suffer."

counterfeit-elitism. What thiS means, ts just because you're

a Satanist doesn't mean that you shouldn't be continually subjected to the same scrutiny as anyone else would have to endure. It has been said that "Satanists are bom. not made," BUT, you still have to grow up. You area god asa Satanist, but you still have the opportunity to bea childish,
narcissiStic god if you so choose.

Instead of relying on the kind of metoric I've Just described, what we ought to rely on 1s our always asking, "Why?" Ask yourself once in a while whether you've goat
better reason for a point of view than. " 'cause I'ma Satanist." Using trrelevent information to defend one's philosophy ts another bad corner to back into.I was speaking witha Jew recently who said he didn't really believe in God or most of what his Jewish doctrine bas to say.

The Green Dragon was also a well-

His libra:ry and personal collection of artifacts were donated to the government upon his death and the books became the foundation of the IJbra:ry of Congress. Many of these books and curios originated outside of the Judeo-Christian culture and would today be balTed from paroch:lal or church collections as "pagan" and "anti-Christian."A trip to his home, "Monticello," in Charlottesville.

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Book of Fate than that these people are to
be free." This is a misquote however. as where a period has been placed should be a semicolon. Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God. Obviously, Jefferson's words have been distorted here. in the interests of what we would call today "Political Correctness."

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

are all Christians) bya desire to regiment and control. to squash all Earthly pride and skill. and to snip the testicles off of anything not dJsplaymg the appropriate Chdstlan meekness. Needless to say. they despised the Southern aristocrats as
paragons of all the Virtues they deemed "Satanic:" Sdentlfic, materialist. practical, self-sufflctent worldly, sensual, Hellenic∑ "manly," In a word. ï

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep
the country from splitting in. They failed.

Upon the election of Abraham Unca!n to the oftlce of President in November.
l 860. the matter had reached the point of no return. To the Southerners, this man. openly opposed to slavery, openly in favor
of maintaining the union at the expense of individual liberties of the subj:ct states -if reqUired, represented what they most

to the Charlestontans was that Lincoln l

today between the country of Uthuania and k
its attempts to break free of the SoViet ' Union. Every step taken by either party fn such hJghly-charged situations is of
profound significant to the participants thereof.

What sort of persons were these Char∑ lestonians? Who were the ringleaders in the ) assault upon Ft. Sumter? An examination
of military leaders, such as PJen-e G.T. Beauregard, who were at the scene at the '-:. tlme the war started. will again turn up our conunon denomtnator: they were Masons.
In fact, the dty of Charleston was a maj>r

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

ARMA VIRUMQUE CANO!

HAIL LIDDY!

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo

IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to express a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look upon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?

Satanists who feel this way would be well served by reading ''Mein Kampf''. Hitler recognized that the masses are sheeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it, glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attributing it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

:This self-sacrificing will to give one's personal labor and if necessary one's own life for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan... Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. If he had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation requires that the individual renounce putting forward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)*
:
:In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national body... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sorry to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)
:
:'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most varying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjoyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No LaVey challenging each man to live for himself and take his own vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organisms, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not worry about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which '''that authority''' considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up being abused to select in favor of characteristics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothing to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on doing so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. The fit would prove their fitness by surviving. The unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. The so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial characteristics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Christianity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.** In doing so, he was defending the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Naziism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-Semitism is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Christianity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

==Sparks -What's Going on Out There==
by Peggy Nadramia

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of ''Rolling Stone'' contains a cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist could resist. ''RS'' often contains some first-class articles (chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.

The author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's on-screen persona while nevertheless revealing the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action, identity, and will. "Real tough people," he says, may feel pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pop hit, to "let someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist, I knew that cute lil Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum.

By now everyone knows this was the beginning of one of those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in ''The Choking Doberman'' and other titles. P&G is ''not'' affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon is not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Christian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesting enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. they'll I finally the moon and stars in a circle.

Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied handout advocating a boycott of their many products (including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the -- very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has successfully filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway distributors. Amway reps sell household products (like soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system similar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major TV talk shows like ''Donahue'' and ''Morton Downey, Jr.'' and has a weekday radio talk show called ''Talk Back'', syndicated nationwide on many Christian networks. Bob has a thing for Satanists, and loves to read aloud from the pages of ''The Satanic Bible'' and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and now novelist (''Dead Air''. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on ''Talk Back'' have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts," and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:

"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-ins are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than another broadcaster!

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your 
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears. 
You flick your tongue to taste my skin. 
I smile at this benediction. 
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard? 

I've seen you at the hunt; my heart has leapt with 
the beauty of your movements. 
You sink to your haunches in the grass, 
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. 
When the prey is close enough to capture, 
you boil with movement, a streak of black, 
white teeth flashing. 
You kill the squirrel quickly, 
although mercy is not what you feel. 
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, 
Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, 
Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion. 
You taste the fresh meat, by the rest 
for a day of possible hunger. 

They tell me dogs want to be free. 
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's 
where you want to be. 
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man 
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. 
Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. 
Once we were the same, 
predators who lived in packs. 
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth 
young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. 
I see the Satan in you every moment, 
even when you sleep 
in utter peace and relaxation. 
So why shouldn't your simple regard 
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings? 
Hail, to you who neither need 
nor want such accolade, 
Hail, child of my heart.

EXIT #5, designed and produced by George Petros. (Exit Magazine, New York, 1991; 96 pages, ISSN 0883-9158, $13.00.) Subtitled ''Tomorrow's (Words and Pictures) Today'', this large-size (11" X 14'1 magazine is printed on newsprint With a three color cover, and features artwork and writing by Mark Mothersbaugh, Peter H. Gilmore, Mark David Chapman, Joe Coleman, Zeena LaVey, Nikolas Schreck and Adam Parfrey, among others. The largest thematic piece in the issue is a series of Nietzsche quotes illustrated by
various and sundry artists and characters from the "apocalypse underground," and conceived by John Aes-Nihil. I enjoyed most the ''New York Times'' pages from April 20, 1999, especially the news item reporting the holdup and murder of Mick Jagger and Jeri Hall outside a fashionable Moscow restaurant by two Neo-Nazi teens. There's also an interesting, definitely politically incorrect piece about slavery, and a hilarious fill-in-the-blanks from an actual children's religious schoolbook, including pasted-in photos of Charlie Manson. There are rarely-seen examples of the work of painter Robert Williams, a long article about the history of cannibalism, an overview of "The Swastika: Sacred and Profane," and much, much more. For me, the weak spot in this journal from Hell is a three page surreal "comic strip" using only the silhouette of a penis. Credit for the arresting layout goes to Nancy Petros, editor and art director. You can order ''Exit #5'' from See/Hear (see address elsewhere in this column).

HOLLYWOOD AND THE SUPERNATURAL by Sherry Hansen-Steiger and Brad Steiger. (St. Martm's Press. New York, 1990; 269 pages, ISBN 0-312-05098-4, $19.95, hardcover.) Takes a sort of supermarket tabloid, gee-whiz-wow handle on the supernatural in general and the star-crossed lives of movie stars in particular, including a "directory of mediums, channels and psychics." The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headings like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and "Peter Sellers" Guidance From the Spirit World." The strong point of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpoint on the portrayal of Satan and things Satanic in present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and including the fact that LaVey saved the life of Mansfield's son Zoltan through magical intervention. Most revelatory of all is Bob Slatzer's recounting of his night spent with LaVey outside of Marilyn Monroe's last home, where together they witnessed the materialization of the late actress. When I consulted the High Priest as to the accuracy of this account he verified it reluctantly; it is not something he speaks of often.

WHO IS THAT? by Warren B. Meyers. (Carol Publishing, New York, 1991; 63 pages, ISBN 0-8065-0535-4, $7.95, softcover.) Finally reprinted, a wonderful little compendium of all those well-known faces from the late show, those extras and character actors we knew by sight and type, but whose names never graced a marquee or garnered a mention in a movie magazine. As the editor himself testifies, "if the identity of the assorted cops, hillbillies, landladies, good-hearted tramps, stoolies, moppets, mad scientists and
what-have-you is driving you mad as they flit across your TV screens...then more likely than not, you'll get your answer here." From a Satanic standpoint, what this collection of photos accomplishes, is to point out the recurring types we see every day. There's a chapter entitled, "Tough Tomatoes, Or, My, Isn't She Cheap?" and one called "Losers: He Should Have Stood in Bed." If you're out to change your look to accomplish certain goals or simply to reinforce your strengthening core self you might find some models in these pages. Meyers also gives a tight little analysis of the moviegoing experience in his Preface, and the definition is quite magical: "Your ticket admitted you into a grotto-like world in which your anonymity was perfectly protected by the gentle enveloping darkness, though you were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And in return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was larger than life, your reactions to it were also larger than life; for your laughter, your sympathy or your tears merged with the same reaction of every other member of the audience, and came back to you, magnified a hundred-fold."

STONE CITY by Mitchell Smith. (Signet, New York, 1990; 634 pages, ISBN 0-451-16930-l, $5.99, paperback.) A big fat serial killer/mystery novel that details life ma 1arge state prison like no novel has before. The main character is in for vehicular homicide resulting from drunken driving: he's a history teacher, completely unused to the violent life he must now lead as he goes from block to block, cell to cell t earning cigarette money by teaching hardened criminals how to read and write. The writing is top-notch, suspenseful, hard-edged but also almost poetic at times. The cast of characters includes the Lifers, the Bikers, and a prison librarian who makes Hannibal Lecter look like a nice guy. Grab it for those last beach days; a very satisfying read.

GUIGNOIR AND OTHER FURIES edited by George Hatch- (Horror's Head Press, New York, 1991; 141 pages, $6.95, no ISBN, softcover.) A collection of thirteen tales of psychological terror, violence and suspense, illustrated by Peter H. Gilmore. Authors include Graham Watkins, Kevin J. Anderson and Nancy Holder. Hatch invented his title by combining the two major influences on his editorial outlook: the Grand Guignol and Film Noir. His introduction looks at the increasingly stressful effect that mounting violence is having on individuals: "You have been assimilated into a noirish landscape of menace, tension and moral instability where the intrinsically dangerous nature of man is reflected in and refracted through the cracked mirrors and warped prisms of emotional pain and psychological trauma... Such extremities are the focus of the stories in this anthology." Of particular note is one of the final stories, "The Concrete Labyrinth" by Gerard Houarner, where a woman is confronted With the terrifying strength of mob consciousness, finally submitting to it. Available for $8.00 (includes postage and handling) from Horror's Head Press, 140 Dickie Ave. Staten Island, NY 10314. Make check/money order payable to George Hatch.

NON: TOTAL WAR. LIVE IN JAPAN performed by Boyd Rice and Non on VHS videocassette. This performance, which mcludes four black-clad drummers and the vocalizations of Boyd Rice and Rose McDowell, is an electrifying, militaristic ritual celebrating Satanic strength and righteous anger. Includes the songs "Holy War" (to the tune of "Silent Night and "Vengeance." "Do you want total war?" asks Rice, "to throw out Christ and bring back Thor?" Recorded on July 3rd, 1989 in Osaka, Japan, taped voiceovers includes snippets of Travis Bickle's speech from Taxi Driver ("Here's one man who stood up against the scum...") and some Beethoven. What characterizes both Rice's expressed philosophy and the staging of this performance is ''order'', these are not the inaudible rantings and frenetic gyrations of many "underground" musical artists. In fact, the players march onstage, their black berets all cocked at the same angle.

THE CHURCH OF WAR: TELEVISIONARY MINISTRY CAMPAIGN by C.O.W.AN. Transmission #1 on videocassette. A torchlit march to set ablaze a giant standing "Ing" rune (signifying, a new life or way), followed by a stirring speech given in a candlelit TV studio and climaxing in a song, "The Ninth Bell Tolls" sung to the tune of "Amazing Grace." The Church of War's philosophy and attitude is virtually the same as the Church of Satan's, and local Satanists exposed to this tape were inspired and impressed. What C.O.W.A.N. wants to do now is get this thing televised on public access cable TV, and they have succeeded m doing so m many cities already. If your local cable network has public access programming, the Church of War would appreciate your forwarding all necessary application information to them at P.O. Box 15, Altadena, CA 91003.

Here's a lighthearted article to tickle your Satanic fancy. The author describes, in a very entertaining style, the recent discovery- of a previously unnoticed behavior pattern among the primates. This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is described as tactical deception, to be distinguished from the ordinary sort of deception, such as

Tactical deception is the out-and-out trickery used to get what one wants, usually by fooling the members of one's own species, rather than other Clitters. The use of this tactical deception seems to be directly linked to brain size. It is also becoming evident that this tactical deception is premeditated, not only in man. the sneakiest of the primates, but also among the rest of his primate cousins. I enjoyed being reminded of my animalistic nature. I also like to snigger at another hole in the "all-animals-and-aboriginal-humans-are-nobler-than humans" theory.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and military. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show.

Now I wish to simply suggest that eve:ry single one of you should buy, read and study this book ve:ry carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a '1aw enforcement guru" by Soldier of Fortune magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous publications from Black Belt magazine to Combat Handgzms magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must

in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfightlng techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashing some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Ju:ry will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will be tried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that if he had to shoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked Wm lf
maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explosions to cause
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation.

Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a ,. court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derringer which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have
used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Ju:ry why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be ve:ry, ve:ry careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world history.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidden from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrifices.

In the actual script of "The God-Eater" the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human misery is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Anger's film Lucifer Rising and owns Boleskine House, the Beast's one-time Highland home). Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over Innsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manuscripts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manuscripts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

THE TEMPLE AND THE LODGE by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. (Arcade Publishing, New York, 1989; 306 pages, includes maps and photographs, ISBN 1-55970-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.

If you've been following the tracings of real Satanism through history that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a mystery as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued
presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."
These folk have previously brought us more speculative material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

ustening to this record brings back a time when music
was a tool to lift man's spirit, to inspire, to drive: not Simply something to serve as "cruise control" background music for shopping mall ambience. The message is loud and clear:
even those who do not keep up with the so-called ''Manson
mystique" will be intoxicated by the beautiful power behind thiS full length LP. Many who may have heard television tnterviews or seen actual pieces of writing by Manson may
ï have found his words confusing or his ideas hard to understand when voiced in his unique way of speaking which often borders on being stream-of-consciousness. Not so with the songs on this recording. While many of his ideas
are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as
to be revelations. MuSic is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of Side one states, HOW ELSE DO YOU7HJNK I COUI.D TAI.K Wll1l YOU EXCE/TI'THROUGH 'IHE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU7HINK I COUI.D S'IOP'IHE CONFUSION IN YOURMIND? SO COME ON.

YOU WILL BE DEAD ('This particular phrase was spontaneously uttered by one of the girls as they sang together). One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the
knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting
accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majortty will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will anydare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will beSinging that haunting refrain:

IN PURSUIT OF SATAN. THE POUCE AND TiiE
OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting. Here at last is a volume that fills the order.

Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention
that it deserves because it proves that the gruesome ravings are just that.

hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

cares about the direction of education.

0-8129-1853-3, $21.95, hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his vision to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about why we should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Price is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outsider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discussions afterwards.

SILENCE OF THE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thriller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, who uses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he was captured by a law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, if he let himself go. would be one himself (this is all material that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

Against your ancient tyranny I rise in cruel revolt;
Against your reign of thou-shalt-nots
From mankind's dawn till now.

Just do as I'm told
Or I won't get into Heaven; I spit on your rules
I don't need your permission!

Your whining sham of right and wrong
Can stay my hand no more; I'm not your slave or supplicant To raise up and slap down.

0 vampire gorged on your betters,
Tomorrow is ours --

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

==Satanist, Heal Thyself! I'd Rather Not...==
by Magdalene Graham

I HAD A LOVELY COMPLIMENT yesterday, when the locai I milk supplier called at my new apartment (at 8:30 a.m.) to
arrange milk deliveries. I am an early riser. Low-necked dress, fully made-up and perfume concocted exclustvely for
me by Sorcerer's Apprentice. Milkman gazed at me leanmg 1 on my walking-frame and said 'You don't look like an in- valid." I said '1nvalidity is in the mind, not in the body." fDI:s ∑ Adept told me that, long ago - he was right as always,
though it often takes time to appreciate the truth of his
statements). Milkman said "It's a pity more people don't
think like that." I could have replied (but I didn't) that it's rï1
only for Satanists.

Being classified as Disabled has more advantages than disadvantages. I have a guaranteed income which, With aJ1 the allowances and supplements and rebates and anything else that's going, amounts to as much as an over-taxed wage-slave would earn fornine-to-five hard labor, and I have to do nothing for it. I can, of course, supplement that in-
come (discreetly). I have always hated housework and would ) pay a cleaner in preference to taking a holiday; now my servants are paid by the Government. Holiday also comes free
if I fancy a trip to the seaside...might be fun.

As I progress down the street in my motorized wheelchair, traffic makes wayfor me. People open doors and rush to help. It makes them feel good, so I'm doing them a favor.
In the clothes-shops, the assistant will be only too delighted \
to help Madam try on the dresses. Being bisexual, I've had I
some interesting encounters in fitting-rooms - must be the feminine equivalent of "cottages."

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot
walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s
thatI was, at thiS point in the discussion. uninterested in anything thiS person bad to say on any subject, due to her overwhelming presumptuousness. If I had known ahead of time that she bated the writingS of Ayn Rand, I wouldn't have said as the first thing upon meeting her, "Oh you're the one who doesn't like Ayn Rand. We're gonna have to havea talk."I call thiS the command to look...like an asshole! (See J. Waynes's article in TBF Vol. 2, #2.) Satanists strive for ctvil17.ed behavior, until brutality becomes necessary.
If Satanists refuse to be brought down to the level of the
fools to which we are in opposition, maybe our arguments will be HEARD- Even rational arguments will be lost on rational people if the manner in which they're presented 1s uncouth. Behavior like rve been describing 1s a sign of weakness, something I really despise. Remember those tmmortal

The Tea Party was the act of a small band of Bostonians. all of whom frequented a tavern called the "Green Dragon". a hotbed of political discontent It was in this tavern. in fact. that the partlers gathered prior to their march to the docks.
The Green Dragon was also a well-

His libra:ry and personal collection of artifacts were donated to the government upon his death and the books became the foundation of the IJbra:ry of Congress. Many of these books and curios originated outside of the Judeo-Christian culture and would today be balTed from paroch:lal or church collections as "pagan" and "anti-Christian."A trip to his home, "Monticello," in Charlottesville. Virginia. would give the curious some indication of his inspirations. There are many other examples of Masonic influence to be noted. I shall below concern myself with two. which

The site selected for the new capitol was a largely undeveloped piece of land lying on the border of the states of

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Book of Fate than that these people are to

Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God. Obviously, Jefferson's words have been distorted here. in the interests of what we would call today "Political Correctness."

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

paragons of all the Virtues they deemed "Satanic:" Sdentlfic, materialist. practical, self-sufflctent worldly, sensual, Hellenic∑ "manly," In a word. ï

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep
the country from splitting in. They failed.

Upon the election of Abraham Unca!n to the oftlce of President in November.

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

Please notify us of your interest and you will be sent information on how to order the book once it is available. Distribution and wholesale inquiries are welcome.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo

IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to express a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look upon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?

Satanists who feel this way would be well served by reading ''Mein Kampf''. Hitler recognized that the masses are sheeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it, glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attributing it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

:This self-sacrificing will to give one's personal labor and if necessary one's own life for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan... Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. If he had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation requires that the individual renounce putting forward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)*
:
:In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national body... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sorry to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)
:
:'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most varying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjoyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No LaVey challenging each man to live for himself and take his own vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organisms, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not worry about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which '''that authority''' considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up being abused to select in favor of characteristics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothing to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on doing so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. The fit would prove their fitness by surviving. The unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. The so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial characteristics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Christianity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.** In doing so, he was defending the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Naziism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-Semitism is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Christianity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

==Sparks -What's Going on Out There==
by Peggy Nadramia

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of ''Rolling Stone'' contains a cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist could resist. ''RS'' often contains some first-class articles (chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.

The author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's on-screen persona while nevertheless revealing the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action, identity, and will. "Real tough people," he says, may feel pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pop hit, to "let someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist, I knew that cute lil Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum.

By now everyone knows this was the beginning of one of those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in ''The Choking Doberman'' and other titles. P&G is ''not'' affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon is not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Christian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesting enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. they'll I finally the moon and stars in a circle.

Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied handout advocating a boycott of their many products (including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the -- very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has successfully filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway distributors. Amway reps sell household products (like soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system similar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major TV talk shows like ''Donahue'' and ''Morton Downey, Jr.'' and has a weekday radio talk show called ''Talk Back'', syndicated nationwide on many Christian networks. Bob has a thing for Satanists, and loves to read aloud from the pages of ''The Satanic Bible'' and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and now novelist (''Dead Air''. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on ''Talk Back'' have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts," and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:

"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-ins are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than another broadcaster!

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your 
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears. 
You flick your tongue to taste my skin. 
I smile at this benediction. 
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard? 

I've seen you at the hunt; my heart has leapt with 
the beauty of your movements. 
You sink to your haunches in the grass, 
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. 
When the prey is close enough to capture, 
you boil with movement, a streak of black, 
white teeth flashing. 
You kill the squirrel quickly, 
although mercy is not what you feel. 
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, 
Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, 
Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion. 
You taste the fresh meat, by the rest 
for a day of possible hunger. 

They tell me dogs want to be free. 
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's 
where you want to be. 
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man 
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. 
Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. 
Once we were the same, 
predators who lived in packs. 
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth 
young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. 
I see the Satan in you every moment, 
even when you sleep 
in utter peace and relaxation. 
So why shouldn't your simple regard 
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings? 
Hail, to you who neither need 
nor want such accolade, 
Hail, child of my heart.

EXIT #5, designed and produced by George Petros. (Exit Magazine, New York, 1991; 96 pages, ISSN 0883-9158, $13.00.) Subtitled ''Tomorrow's (Words and Pictures) Today'', this large-size (11" X 14'1 magazine is printed on newsprint With a three color cover, and features artwork and writing by Mark Mothersbaugh, Peter H. Gilmore, Mark David Chapman, Joe Coleman, Zeena LaVey, Nikolas Schreck and Adam Parfrey, among others. The largest thematic piece in the issue is a series of Nietzsche quotes illustrated by
various and sundry artists and characters from the "apocalypse underground," and conceived by John Aes-Nihil. I enjoyed most the ''New York Times'' pages from April 20, 1999, especially the news item reporting the holdup and murder of Mick Jagger and Jeri Hall outside a fashionable Moscow restaurant by two Neo-Nazi teens. There's also an interesting, definitely politically incorrect piece about slavery, and a hilarious fill-in-the-blanks from an actual children's religious schoolbook, including pasted-in photos of Charlie Manson. There are rarely-seen examples of the work of painter Robert Williams, a long article about the history of cannibalism, an overview of "The Swastika: Sacred and Profane," and much, much more. For me, the weak spot in this journal from Hell is a three page surreal "comic strip" using only the silhouette of a penis. Credit for the arresting layout goes to Nancy Petros, editor and art director. You can order ''Exit #5'' from See/Hear (see address elsewhere in this column).

HOLLYWOOD AND THE SUPERNATURAL by Sherry Hansen-Steiger and Brad Steiger. (St. Martm's Press. New York, 1990; 269 pages, ISBN 0-312-05098-4, $19.95, hardcover.) Takes a sort of supermarket tabloid, gee-whiz-wow handle on the supernatural in general and the star-crossed lives of movie stars in particular, including a "directory of mediums, channels and psychics." The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headings like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and "Peter Sellers" Guidance From the Spirit World." The strong point of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpoint on the portrayal of Satan and things Satanic in present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and including the fact that LaVey saved the life of Mansfield's son Zoltan through magical intervention. Most revelatory of all is Bob Slatzer's recounting of his night spent with LaVey outside of Marilyn Monroe's last home, where together they witnessed the materialization of the late actress. When I consulted the High Priest as to the accuracy of this account he verified it reluctantly; it is not something he speaks of often.

WHO IS THAT? by Warren B. Meyers. (Carol Publishing, New York, 1991; 63 pages, ISBN 0-8065-0535-4, $7.95, softcover.) Finally reprinted, a wonderful little compendium of all those well-known faces from the late show, those extras and character actors we knew by sight and type, but whose names never graced a marquee or garnered a mention in a movie magazine. As the editor himself testifies, "if the identity of the assorted cops, hillbillies, landladies, good-hearted tramps, stoolies, moppets, mad scientists and
what-have-you is driving you mad as they flit across your TV screens...then more likely than not, you'll get your answer here." From a Satanic standpoint, what this collection of photos accomplishes, is to point out the recurring types we see every day. There's a chapter entitled, "Tough Tomatoes, Or, My, Isn't She Cheap?" and one called "Losers: He Should Have Stood in Bed." If you're out to change your look to accomplish certain goals or simply to reinforce your strengthening core self you might find some models in these pages. Meyers also gives a tight little analysis of the moviegoing experience in his Preface, and the definition is quite magical: "Your ticket admitted you into a grotto-like world in which your anonymity was perfectly protected by the gentle enveloping darkness, though you were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And in return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was larger than life, your reactions to it were also larger than life; for your laughter, your sympathy or your tears merged with the same reaction of every other member of the audience, and came back to you, magnified a hundred-fold."

STONE CITY by Mitchell Smith. (Signet, New York, 1990; 634 pages, ISBN 0-451-16930-l, $5.99, paperback.) A big fat serial killer/mystery novel that details life ma 1arge state prison like no novel has before. The main character is in for vehicular homicide resulting from drunken driving: he's a history teacher, completely unused to the violent life he must now lead as he goes from block to block, cell to cell t earning cigarette money by teaching hardened criminals how to read and write. The writing is top-notch, suspenseful, hard-edged but also almost poetic at times. The cast of characters includes the Lifers, the Bikers, and a prison librarian who makes Hannibal Lecter look like a nice guy. Grab it for those last beach days; a very satisfying read.

GUIGNOIR AND OTHER FURIES edited by George Hatch- (Horror's Head Press, New York, 1991; 141 pages, $6.95, no ISBN, softcover.) A collection of thirteen tales of psychological terror, violence and suspense, illustrated by Peter H. Gilmore. Authors include Graham Watkins, Kevin J. Anderson and Nancy Holder. Hatch invented his title by combining the two major influences on his editorial outlook: the Grand Guignol and Film Noir. His introduction looks at the increasingly stressful effect that mounting violence is having on individuals: "You have been assimilated into a noirish landscape of menace, tension and moral instability where the intrinsically dangerous nature of man is reflected in and refracted through the cracked mirrors and warped prisms of emotional pain and psychological trauma... Such extremities are the focus of the stories in this anthology." Of particular note is one of the final stories, "The Concrete Labyrinth" by Gerard Houarner, where a woman is confronted With the terrifying strength of mob consciousness, finally submitting to it. Available for $8.00 (includes postage and handling) from Horror's Head Press, 140 Dickie Ave. Staten Island, NY 10314. Make check/money order payable to George Hatch.

DARK LILY# 13 edited by Dark Lily, subtitled 'Toe Reality of the Left Hand Path." (Dark Lily. London, 1991; 25 pages, ISSN 0994-6006, $4.00/issue, $16.00/4-issue subscription, paper cover.) A responsible, thoughtful Satanist journal that appears regularly and uses no
by-lines. Articles this time around include "The Allure of Misery" and "Spot the Resemblance," as well as letters and a compendium of products and organizations that maybe of interest to readers. Definitely worth your while to stay on top of this one. (When ordering, send postal money orders or bank draughts; foreign (meaning: U.S.) checks will not be accepted.)

NON: TOTAL WAR. LIVE IN JAPAN performed by Boyd Rice and Non on VHS videocassette. This performance, which mcludes four black-clad drummers and the vocalizations of Boyd Rice and Rose McDowell, is an electrifying, militaristic ritual celebrating Satanic strength and righteous anger. Includes the songs "Holy War" (to the tune of "Silent Night and "Vengeance." "Do you want total war?" asks Rice, "to throw out Christ and bring back Thor?" Recorded on July 3rd, 1989 in Osaka, Japan, taped voiceovers includes snippets of Travis Bickle's speech from Taxi Driver ("Here's one man who stood up against the scum...") and some Beethoven. What characterizes both Rice's expressed philosophy and the staging of this performance is ''order'', these are not the inaudible rantings and frenetic gyrations of many "underground" musical artists. In fact, the players march onstage, their black berets all cocked at the same angle.

THE CHURCH OF WAR: TELEVISIONARY MINISTRY CAMPAIGN by C.O.W.AN. Transmission #1 on videocassette. A torchlit march to set ablaze a giant standing "Ing" rune (signifying, a new life or way), followed by a stirring speech given in a candlelit TV studio and climaxing in a song, "The Ninth Bell Tolls" sung to the tune of "Amazing Grace." The Church of War's philosophy and attitude is virtually the same as the Church of Satan's, and local Satanists exposed to this tape were inspired and impressed. What C.O.W.A.N. wants to do now is get this thing televised on public access cable TV, and they have succeeded m doing so m many cities already. If your local cable network has public access programming, the Church of War would appreciate your forwarding all necessary application information to them at P.O. Box 15, Altadena, CA 91003. You may be able to obtain your own copy of this transmission through your kindness and willingness to share similar material with their leader, Doran.

Here's a lighthearted article to tickle your Satanic fancy. The author describes, in a very entertaining style, the recent discovery- of a previously unnoticed behavior pattern among the primates. This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is described as tactical deception, to be distinguished from the ordinary sort of deception, such as

The play was augmented by spectacular lighting and guitar muSic written, recorded and performed by Scott Stets and the play's muSical director, Brendan O'Toole. The music reflected Eastern modes and scales that elicited a Sitar-like quality from the guitars. Also used during the show was the ritual-like music of Led Zeppelin (Led Zeppelin's guitarist Jimmy Page recorded soundtrack music for Kenneth

making oneself look like a twig, or bigger and meaner than one's predators, or protective coloration. Tactical deception is the out-and-out trickery used to get what one wants, usually by fooling the members of one's own species, rather than other Clitters. The use of this tactical deception seems to be directly linked to brain size. It is also becoming evident that this tactical deception is premeditated, not only in man. the sneakiest of the primates, but also among the rest of his primate cousins. I enjoyed being reminded of my animalistic nature. I also like to snigger at another hole in the "all-animals-and-aboriginal-humans-are-nobler-than humans" theory.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and military. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show.

Now I wish to simply suggest that eve:ry single one of you should buy, read and study this book ve:ry carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a '1aw enforcement guru" by Soldier of Fortune magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous publications from Black Belt magazine to Combat Handgzms magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must

in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfightlng techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashing some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Ju:ry will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will be tried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that if he had to shoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked Wm lf
maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explosions to cause
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation.

Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a ,. court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derringer which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have
used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Ju:ry why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be ve:ry, ve:ry careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world history.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidden from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrifices.

In the actual script of "The God-Eater" the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human misery is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Anger's film Lucifer Rising and owns Boleskine House, the Beast's one-time Highland home). Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over Innsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manuscripts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manuscripts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

THE TEMPLE AND THE LODGE by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. (Arcade Publishing, New York, 1989; 306 pages, includes maps and photographs, ISBN 1-55970-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.

If you've been following the tracings of real Satanism through history that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a mystery as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued
presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."
These folk have previously brought us more speculative material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest.

accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majortty will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will anydare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will beSinging that haunting refrain:

IN PURSUIT OF SATAN. THE POUCE AND TiiE
OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting. Here at last is a volume that fills the order.

Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention
that it deserves because it proves that the gruesome ravings are just that.

AND SEX ON CAMPUS by Dinesh D'Souza. ('Ihe Free Press, New York. 1991; 319 pages, ISBN 0-02-908100-9, $19.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

(nmes Books, New York, 1991; 466 pages, ISBN ,I
0-8129-1853-3, $21.95, hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

We were delighted to receive these two wonderful releases from the dynamic folks at Psychick Release PCP. and these are truly exemplary efforts. The first combination of White Stains "hyperdelic" music with the haunting invocations of Psychick TV takes one on a Journey of musical consciousness trance-formation.

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his vision to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about why we should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Price is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outsider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discussions afterwards.

SILENCE OF THE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thriller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, who uses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he was captured by a law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, if he let himself go. would be one himself (this is all material that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

==Satanist, Heal Thyself! I'd Rather Not...==
by Magdalene Graham

I HAD A LOVELY COMPLIMENT yesterday, when the locai I milk supplier called at my new apartment (at 8:30 a.m.) to
arrange milk deliveries. I am an early riser. Low-necked dress, fully made-up and perfume concocted exclustvely for
me by Sorcerer's Apprentice. Milkman gazed at me leanmg 1 on my walking-frame and said 'You don't look like an in- valid." I said '1nvalidity is in the mind, not in the body." fDI:s ∑ Adept told me that, long ago - he was right as always,
though it often takes time to appreciate the truth of his
statements). Milkman said "It's a pity more people don't
think like that." I could have replied (but I didn't) that it's rï1
only for Satanists.

Being classified as Disabled has more advantages than disadvantages. I have a guaranteed income which, With aJ1 the allowances and supplements and rebates and anything else that's going, amounts to as much as an over-taxed wage-slave would earn fornine-to-five hard labor, and I have to do nothing for it. I can, of course, supplement that in-
come (discreetly). I have always hated housework and would ) pay a cleaner in preference to taking a holiday; now my servants are paid by the Government. Holiday also comes free
if I fancy a trip to the seaside...might be fun.

As I progress down the street in my motorized wheelchair, traffic makes wayfor me. People open doors and rush to help. It makes them feel good, so I'm doing them a favor.
In the clothes-shops, the assistant will be only too delighted \
to help Madam try on the dresses. Being bisexual, I've had I
some interesting encounters in fitting-rooms - must be the feminine equivalent of "cottages."

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot
walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

So, you see, it is possible to be a Satanic Witch in a wheelchair.

No, Wiccan. I agree With your rejectlon of being a

Witches, REAL Witches, ARE Satanic! They take great big

They go crazy by stupidly swallowing stupid want

Wimpy Wiccans, I pity you. You are like a distorted image, a broken mirror. You claim the fame but fear the Name AND WEIL YOU SHOULD! You who lack any power tn this world toy With the symbols of Satan! You who would be witches, deny the Name! You who would ride the night, control the mtnds of men and rise to glory, instead wallow tn the mud of your identical Christian twtn.

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s
thatI was, at thiS point in the discussion. uninterested in anything thiS person bad to say on any subject, due to her overwhelming presumptuousness. If I had known ahead of time that she bated the writingS of Ayn Rand, I wouldn't have said as the first thing upon meeting her, "Oh you're the one who doesn't like Ayn Rand. We're gonna have to havea talk."I call thiS the command to look...like an asshole! (See J. Waynes's article in TBF Vol. 2, #2.) Satanists strive for ctvil17.ed behavior, until brutality becomes necessary.
If Satanists refuse to be brought down to the level of the
fools to which we are in opposition, maybe our arguments will be HEARD- Even rational arguments will be lost on rational people if the manner in which they're presented 1s uncouth. Behavior like rve been describing 1s a sign of weakness, something I really despise. Remember those tmmortal

Another form of excuse-making to avoid 1s pretentious

words from the Book of Satan:
'"Ibrice cursed are the weak whose tnsecurity makes
them vile, for they shall serve and suffer."

counterfeit-elitism. What thiS means, ts just because you're

a Satanist doesn't mean that you shouldn't be continually subjected to the same scrutiny as anyone else would have to endure. It has been said that "Satanists are bom. not made," BUT, you still have to grow up. You area god asa Satanist, but you still have the opportunity to bea childish,
narcissiStic god if you so choose.

Instead of relying on the kind of metoric I've Just described, what we ought to rely on 1s our always asking, "Why?" Ask yourself once in a while whether you've goat
better reason for a point of view than. " 'cause I'ma Satanist." Using trrelevent information to defend one's philosophy ts another bad corner to back into.I was speaking witha Jew recently who said he didn't really believe in God or most of what his Jewish doctrine bas to say.

His libra:ry and personal collection of artifacts were donated to the government upon his death and the books became the foundation of the IJbra:ry of Congress.

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Book of Fate than that these people are to
be free." This is a misquote however. as where a period has been placed should be a semicolon. Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God.

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

paragons of all the Virtues they deemed "Satanic:" Sdentlfic, materialist. practical, self-sufflctent worldly, sensual, Hellenic∑ "manly," In a word. ï

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep
the country from splitting in. They failed.

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

ARMA VIRUMQUE CANO!

HAIL LIDDY!

HAIL SATAN!

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

Please notify us of your interest and you will be sent information on how to order the book once it is available. Distribution and wholesale inquiries are welcome.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo

IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to express a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look upon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?

Satanists who feel this way would be well served by reading ''Mein Kampf''. Hitler recognized that the masses are sheeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it, glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attributing it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

:This self-sacrificing will to give one's personal labor and if necessary one's own life for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan... Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. If he had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation requires that the individual renounce putting forward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)*
:
:In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national body... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sorry to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)
:
:'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most varying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjoyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No LaVey challenging each man to live for himself and take his own vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organisms, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not worry about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which '''that authority''' considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up being abused to select in favor of characteristics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothing to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on doing so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. The fit would prove their fitness by surviving. The unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. The so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial characteristics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Christianity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.** In doing so, he was defending the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Naziism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-Semitism is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Christianity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

==Sparks -What's Going on Out There==
by Peggy Nadramia

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of ''Rolling Stone'' contains a cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist could resist. ''RS'' often contains some first-class articles (chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.

The author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's on-screen persona while nevertheless revealing the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action, identity, and will. "Real tough people," he says, may feel pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pop hit, to "let someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist, I knew that cute lil Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum.

By now everyone knows this was the beginning of one of those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in ''The Choking Doberman'' and other titles. P&G is ''not'' affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon is not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Christian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesting enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. they'll I finally the moon and stars in a circle.

Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied handout advocating a boycott of their many products (including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the -- very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has successfully filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway distributors. Amway reps sell household products (like soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system similar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major TV talk shows like ''Donahue'' and ''Morton Downey, Jr.'' and has a weekday radio talk show called ''Talk Back'', syndicated nationwide on many Christian networks. Bob has a thing for Satanists, and loves to read aloud from the pages of ''The Satanic Bible'' and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and now novelist (''Dead Air''. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on ''Talk Back'' have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts," and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:

"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-ins are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than another broadcaster!

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your 
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears. 
You flick your tongue to taste my skin. 
I smile at this benediction. 
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard? 

I've seen you at the hunt; my heart has leapt with 
the beauty of your movements. 
You sink to your haunches in the grass, 
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. 
When the prey is close enough to capture, 
you boil with movement, a streak of black, 
white teeth flashing. 
You kill the squirrel quickly, 
although mercy is not what you feel. 
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, 
Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, 
Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion. 
You taste the fresh meat, by the rest 
for a day of possible hunger. 

They tell me dogs want to be free. 
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's 
where you want to be. 
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man 
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. 
Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. 
Once we were the same, 
predators who lived in packs. 
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth 
young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. 
I see the Satan in you every moment, 
even when you sleep 
in utter peace and relaxation. 
So why shouldn't your simple regard 
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings? 
Hail, to you who neither need 
nor want such accolade, 
Hail, child of my heart.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad
Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and milita:ry. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show.
Now I wish to simply suggest that eve:ry single one of you should buy, read and study this book ve:ry carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a '1aw enforcement guru" by Soldier of Fortune magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous
publications from Black Belt magazine to Combat Handgzms magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must

in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfightlng techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashlng some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Ju:ry will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will betried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that ifhe hadtoshoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked Wm lf
maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explostons to cause 1
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation.

Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a ,. court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derrtnger which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have
used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Ju:ry why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be ve:ry, ve:ry careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the
stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world histo:ry.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidd_en from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrtflces.

In the actual script of 'Jhe God-Eater. the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human mise:ry is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Beast's one-time Highland home).
:Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over lnnsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manusClipts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manusCiipts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.
:If you've been following the tracingS ofreal Satanism through histo:ry that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a myste:ry as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued
presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."
These folk have previously brought us more speculative
material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as
to be revelations. MuSic is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of Side one states, HOW ELSE DO YOU7HJNK I COUI.D TAI.K Wll1l YOU EXCE/TI'THROUGH 'IHE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU7HINK I COUI.D S'IOP'IHE CONFUSION IN YOURMIND? SO COME ON.

One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the
knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting
accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majortty will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will anydare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will beSinging that haunting refrain:

OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting.

Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention
that it deserves because it proves that the gruesome ravings are just that.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the_ Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his viSion to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about whywe should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Prtce is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outSider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discusSions afterwards.

SILENCE OF 1HE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thrtller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, whouses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he wascaptured bya law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, ifhe lethimself go. would be one himself (this is all materlal that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

==Satanist, Heal Thyself! I'd Rather Not...==
by Magdalene Graham

I HAD A LOVELY COMPLIMENT yesterday, when the locai I milk supplier called at my new apartment (at 8:30 a.m.) to
arrange milk deliveries. I am an early riser. Low-necked dress, fully made-up and perfume concocted exclustvely for
me by Sorcerer's Apprentice. Milkman gazed at me leanmg 1 on my walking-frame and said 'You don't look like an in- valid." I said '1nvalidity is in the mind, not in the body." fDI:s ∑ Adept told me that, long ago - he was right as always,
though it often takes time to appreciate the truth of his
statements). Milkman said "It's a pity more people don't
think like that." I could have replied (but I didn't) that it's rï1
only for Satanists.

Being classified as Disabled has more advantages than disadvantages. I have a guaranteed income which, With aJ1 the allowances and supplements and rebates and anything else that's going, amounts to as much as an over-taxed wage-slave would earn fornine-to-five hard labor, and I have to do nothing for it. I can, of course, supplement that in-
come (discreetly). I have always hated housework and would ) pay a cleaner in preference to taking a holiday; now my servants are paid by the Government. Holiday also comes free
if I fancy a trip to the seaside...might be fun.

As I progress down the street in my motorized wheelchair, traffic makes wayfor me. People open doors and rush to help. It makes them feel good, so I'm doing them a favor.
In the clothes-shops, the assistant will be only too delighted \
to help Madam try on the dresses. Being bisexual, I've had I
some interesting encounters in fitting-rooms - must be the feminine equivalent of "cottages."

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot
walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

Wimpy Wiccans, I pity you. You are like a distorted image, a broken mirror. You claim the fame but fear the Name AND WEIL YOU SHOULD! You who lack any power tn this world toy With the symbols of Satan! You who would be witches, deny the Name!

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s
thatI was, at thiS point in the discussion. uninterested in anything thiS person bad to say on any subject, due to her overwhelming presumptuousness. If I had known ahead of time that she bated the writingS of Ayn Rand, I wouldn't have said as the first thing upon meeting her, "Oh you're the one who doesn't like Ayn Rand. We're gonna have to havea talk."I call thiS the command to look...like an asshole! (See J. Waynes's article in TBF Vol. 2, #2.) Satanists strive for ctvil17.ed behavior, until brutality becomes necessary.
If Satanists refuse to be brought down to the level of the
fools to which we are in opposition, maybe our arguments will be HEARD- Even rational arguments will be lost on rational people if the manner in which they're presented 1s uncouth. Behavior like rve been describing 1s a sign of weakness, something I really despise. Remember those tmmortal

Another form of excuse-making to avoid 1s pretentious

words from the Book of Satan:

them vile, for they shall serve and suffer."

counterfeit-elitism. What thiS means, ts just because you're

a Satanist doesn't mean that you shouldn't be continually subjected to the same scrutiny as anyone else would have to endure. It has been said that "Satanists are bom. not made," BUT, you still have to grow up. You area god asa Satanist, but you still have the opportunity to bea childish,
narcissiStic god if you so choose.

Instead of relying on the kind of metoric I've Just described, what we ought to rely on 1s our always asking, "Why?" Ask yourself once in a while whether you've goat

His libra:ry and personal collection of artifacts were donated to the government upon his death and the books became the foundation of the IJbra:ry of Congress. Many of these books and curios originated outside of the Judeo-Christian culture and would today be balTed from paroch:lal or church collections as "pagan" and "anti-Christian."A trip to his home, "Monticello," in Charlottesville.

It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God. Obviously, Jefferson's words have been distorted here. in the interests of what we would call today "Political Correctness."

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

paragons of all the Virtues they deemed "Satanic:" Sdentlfic, materialist. practical, self-sufflctent worldly, sensual, Hellenic∑ "manly," In a word. ï

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep
the country from splitting in. They failed.

Upon the election of Abraham Unca!n to the oftlce of President in November.

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

ARMA VIRUMQUE CANO!

HAIL LIDDY!

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

Please notify us of your interest and you will be sent information on how to order the book once it is available. Distribution and wholesale inquiries are welcome.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo

IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to express a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look upon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?

Satanists who feel this way would be well served by reading ''Mein Kampf''. Hitler recognized that the masses are sheeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it, glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attributing it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

:This self-sacrificing will to give one's personal labor and if necessary one's own life for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan... Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. If he had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation requires that the individual renounce putting forward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)*
:
:In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national body... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sorry to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)
:
:'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most varying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjoyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No LaVey challenging each man to live for himself and take his own vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organisms, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not worry about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which '''that authority''' considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up being abused to select in favor of characteristics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothing to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on doing so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. The fit would prove their fitness by surviving. The unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. The so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial characteristics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Christianity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.** In doing so, he was defending the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Naziism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-Semitism is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Christianity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

==Sparks -What's Going on Out There==
by Peggy Nadramia

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of ''Rolling Stone'' contains a cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist could resist. ''RS'' often contains some first-class articles (chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.

The author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's on-screen persona while nevertheless revealing the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action, identity, and will. "Real tough people," he says, may feel pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pop hit, to "let someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist, I knew that cute lil Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum.

By now everyone knows this was the beginning of one of those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in ''The Choking Doberman'' and other titles. P&G is ''not'' affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon is not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Christian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesting enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. they'll I finally the moon and stars in a circle.

Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied handout advocating a boycott of their many products (including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the -- very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has successfully filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway distributors. Amway reps sell household products (like soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system similar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major TV talk shows like ''Donahue'' and ''Morton Downey, Jr.'' and has a weekday radio talk show called ''Talk Back'', syndicated nationwide on many Christian networks. Bob has a thing for Satanists, and loves to read aloud from the pages of ''The Satanic Bible'' and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and now novelist (''Dead Air''. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on ''Talk Back'' have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts," and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:

"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-ins are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than another broadcaster!

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your 
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears. 
You flick your tongue to taste my skin. 
I smile at this benediction. 
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard? 

I've seen you at the hunt; my heart has leapt with 
the beauty of your movements. 
You sink to your haunches in the grass, 
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. 
When the prey is close enough to capture, 
you boil with movement, a streak of black, 
white teeth flashing. 
You kill the squirrel quickly, 
although mercy is not what you feel. 
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, 
Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, 
Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion. 
You taste the fresh meat, by the rest 
for a day of possible hunger. 

They tell me dogs want to be free. 
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's 
where you want to be. 
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man 
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. 
Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. 
Once we were the same, 
predators who lived in packs. 
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth 
young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. 
I see the Satan in you every moment, 
even when you sleep 
in utter peace and relaxation. 
So why shouldn't your simple regard 
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings? 
Hail, to you who neither need 
nor want such accolade, 
Hail, child of my heart.

Hansen-Steiger and Brad Steiger. (St. Martm's Press. New York, 1990; 269 pages, ISBN 0-312-05098-4, $19.95,

gee-whiz-wow handle on the supernatural m general and the star-crossed lives of movie stars m particular, mcluding a "directory of mediums, channels and psychics." The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headmgs like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and ''Peter Sellers' Guidance From the Spirit World." Toe strong pomt of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpomt on the portrayal of Satan and thmgs Satanic m present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and

collection of photos accomplishes, is to pomt out the recurrmg types we see every day.

If you're out to change your look to accomplish certain goals or simply to reinforce your strengthenmg core se1( you might"find some I models m these pages. Meyers also gives a tight little
analysis of the moviegoing experience m his Preface, and the l definition is quite magical: "Your ticket admitted you mtoa grotto-like world m which your anonymity was perfectly protected by the gentle enveloping darkness, though you
were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And m return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was
larger than life, your reactions to it were also larger than life;
for your laughter, your sympathy or your tears merged with the same reaction of every other member of the audience, and came back to you, magnified a hundred-fold."

Here's a lighthearted article to tlckle your Satanic fancy. The author describes, in a very entertaining style, the recent discovery- of a previously unnoticed behavior pattern among the primates. This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is desClibed as tactical deception, to be distinguiShed from the ordiruuy sort of deception, such as

Tactical deception is the out-and-out tricke:ry used to get what one wants, usually by fooling the members of one's own species, rather than other Clitters. The use of this tactical deception seems to be directly linked to brain size.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad
Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and milita:ry. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show.
Now I wish to simply suggest that eve:ry single one of you should buy, read and study this book ve:ry carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a '1aw enforcement guru" by Soldier of Fortune magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous
publications from Black Belt magazine to Combat Handgzms magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must

in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfightlng techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashlng some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Ju:ry will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will betried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that ifhe hadtoshoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked Wm lf
maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explostons to cause 1
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation.

Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a ,. court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derrtnger which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have
used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Ju:ry why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be ve:ry, ve:ry careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the
stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world histo:ry.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidd_en from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrtflces.

In the actual script of 'Jhe God-Eater. the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human mise:ry is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Anger's film Lucifer Rising and owns Boleskine House, the
Beast's one-time Highland home).
:Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over lnnsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manusClipts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manusCiipts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

THE TEMPLE AND THE LODGE by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. (Arcade Publishing, New York, 1989; 306 pages, includes maps and photographs, ISBN 1-55970
-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.
:If you've been following the tracingS ofreal Satanism through histo:ry that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a myste:ry as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued
presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."
These folk have previously brought us more speculative
material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

ustening to this record brings back a time when music
was a tool to lift man's spirit, to inspire, to drive: not Simply something to serve as "cruise control" background music for shopping mall ambience. The message is loud and clear:
even those who do not keep up with the so-called ''Manson
mystique" will be intoxicated by the beautiful power behind thiS full length LP. Many who may have heard television tnterviews or seen actual pieces of writing by Manson may
ï have found his words confusing or his ideas hard to understand when voiced in his unique way of speaking which often borders on being stream-of-consciousness. Not so with the songs on this recording. While many of his ideas
are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as
to be revelations. MuSic is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of Side one states, HOW ELSE DO YOU7HJNK I COUI.D TAI.K Wll1l YOU EXCE/TI'THROUGH 'IHE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU7HINK I COUI.D S'IOP'IHE CONFUSION IN YOURMIND? SO COME ON.

YOU WILL BE DEAD ('This particular phrase was spontaneously uttered by one of the girls as they sang together). One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the
knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting
accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majortty will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will anydare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will beSinging that haunting refrain:

IN PURSUIT OF SATAN. THE POUCE AND TiiE
OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting. Here at last is a volume that fills the order.

contemponuy Satanism-as-conspiracy (a model of crJmina1 behavior which is founded on no hard evidence), from the poor wretches suffering from MPD to the profesSional "Satan Busters" who are making a livelihood off of the promotion of this scam that folklorists are now studying as a new urban legend. Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention

AND SEX ON CAMPUS by Dinesh D'Souza. ('Ihe Free Press, New York. 1991; 319 pages, ISBN 0-02-908100-9, $19.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

cares about the direction of education.

THE BIG BANG NEVER HAPPENED by Eric Lerner.
(nmes Books, New York, 1991; 466 pages, ISBN ,I
0-8129-1853-3, $21.95, hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

We were delighted to receive these two wonderful releases from the dynamic folks at Psychick Release PCP. and these are truly exemplary efforts. The first combination of White Stains "hyperdelic" muSic with the haunting invocations of Psychick TV takes one on a Journey of muSical consciousness trance-formation. More intense than some of P'IV's recent solo efforts, it is still a logical outgrowth of previous recordings. SWEDISH EXOTICA presents a veritable smorgasbord of Swedish bands that will generally be unfamiliar to the American listener. Here's
where you can explore representative cuts from a wide range of some of the best talent on the Swedish scene. Also good for.putting on and quizzing friends who claim to be

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the_ Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his viSion to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about whywe should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Prtce is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outSider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discusSions afterwards.

SILENCE OF 1HE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thrtller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, whouses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he wascaptured bya law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, ifhe lethimself go. would be one himself (this is all materlal that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

==Satanist, Heal Thyself! I'd Rather Not...==
by Magdalene Graham

I HAD A LOVELY COMPLIMENT yesterday, when the locai I milk supplier called at my new apartment (at 8:30 a.m.) to
arrange milk deliveries. I am an early riser. Low-necked dress, fully made-up and perfume concocted exclustvely for
me by Sorcerer's Apprentice. Milkman gazed at me leanmg 1 on my walking-frame and said 'You don't look like an in- valid." I said '1nvalidity is in the mind, not in the body." fDI:s ∑ Adept told me that, long ago - he was right as always,
though it often takes time to appreciate the truth of his
statements). Milkman said "It's a pity more people don't
think like that." I could have replied (but I didn't) that it's rï1
only for Satanists.

Being classified as Disabled has more advantages than disadvantages. I have a guaranteed income which, With aJ1 the allowances and supplements and rebates and anything else that's going, amounts to as much as an over-taxed wage-slave would earn fornine-to-five hard labor, and I have to do nothing for it. I can, of course, supplement that in-
come (discreetly). I have always hated housework and would ) pay a cleaner in preference to taking a holiday; now my servants are paid by the Government. Holiday also comes free
if I fancy a trip to the seaside...might be fun.

As I progress down the street in my motorized wheelchair, traffic makes wayfor me. People open doors and rush to help. It makes them feel good, so I'm doing them a favor.
In the clothes-shops, the assistant will be only too delighted \
to help Madam try on the dresses. Being bisexual, I've had I
some interesting encounters in fitting-rooms - must be the feminine equivalent of "cottages."

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot
walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

So, you see, it is possible to be a Satanic Witch in a wheelchair.

==Wimpy Wiccans and Would-Be Wiccans==
I USED TO REALLY HOLD OUT HOPE for the non-Satanists

No, Wiccan. I agree With your rejectlon of being a

Satanist. You're not even close. I also agree that youare not
a Witch. Witches don't just move through life tn an etheric stupor, healing sweet little fwzy animals and eating granola!
Witches, REAL Witches, ARE Satanic! They take great big

They go crazy by stupidly swallowing stupid want

bites out of life and swallow them whole! Witches crush their enemies and are feared, not pitied! Witches kick ass, seduce men and love life! I have met REAL Witches and they DO get what they want, when and how they want it. They don't worship nature, they RULE it!

Wimpy Wiccans, I pity you. You are like a distorted image, a broken mirror. You claim the fame but fear the Name AND WEIL YOU SHOULD! You who lack any power tn this world toy With the symbols of Satan! You who would be witches, deny the Name! You who would ride the night, control the mtnds of men and rise to glory, instead wallow tn the mud of your identical Christian twtn.
I reject you and yours. and BYTI-IE POWER OF IBE

I CURSE YOU!
May you continue to be your own worst punishment.

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God.

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

Please notify us of your interest and you will be sent information on how to order the book once it is available. Distribution and wholesale inquiries are welcome.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo

IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to express a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look upon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?

Satanists who feel this way would be well served by reading ''Mein Kampf''. Hitler recognized that the masses are sheeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it, glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attributing it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

:This self-sacrificing will to give one's personal labor and if necessary one's own life for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan... Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. If he had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation requires that the individual renounce putting forward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)*
:
:In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national body... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sorry to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)
:
:'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most varying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjoyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No LaVey challenging each man to live for himself and take his own vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organisms, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not worry about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which '''that authority''' considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up being abused to select in favor of characteristics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothing to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on doing so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. The fit would prove their fitness by surviving. The unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. The so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial characteristics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Christianity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.** In doing so, he was defending the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Naziism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-Semitism is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Christianity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

==Sparks -What's Going on Out There==
by Peggy Nadramia

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of ''Rolling Stone'' contains a cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist could resist. ''RS'' often contains some first-class articles (chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.

The author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's on-screen persona while nevertheless revealing the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action, identity, and will. "Real tough people," he says, may feel pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pop hit, to "let someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist, I knew that cute lil Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum.

By now everyone knows this was the beginning of one of those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in ''The Choking Doberman'' and other titles. P&G is ''not'' affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon is not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Christian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesting enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. they'll I finally the moon and stars in a circle.

Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied handout advocating a boycott of their many products (including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the -- very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has successfully filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway distributors. Amway reps sell household products (like soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system similar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major TV talk shows like ''Donahue'' and ''Morton Downey, Jr.'' and has a weekday radio talk show called ''Talk Back'', syndicated nationwide on many Christian networks. Bob has a thing for Satanists, and loves to read aloud from the pages of ''The Satanic Bible'' and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and now novelist (''Dead Air''. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on ''Talk Back'' have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts," and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:

"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-ins are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than another broadcaster!

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears.
You flick your tongue to taste my skin.
I smile at this benediction.
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard?

I've seen you at the hunt; my heart has leapt with the beauty of your movements.
You sink to your haunches in the grass,
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible.
When the prey is close enough to capture,
you boil with movement, a streak of black,
white teeth flashing.
You kill the squirrel quickly,
although mercy is not what you feel.
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it,
Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement,
Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion.
You taste the fresh meat, by the rest
for a day of possible hunger.

They tell me dogs want to be free.
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's
where you want to be.
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side.
Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. Once we were the same,
predators who lived in packs.
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth
young, strengthening and ennobling our blood.
I see the Satan in you every moment,
even when you sleep
in utter peace and relaxation.
So why shouldn't your simple regard
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings?
Hail, to you who neither need
nor want such accolade,
Hail, child of my heart

The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headmgs like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and ''Peter Sellers' Guidance From the Spirit World." Toe strong pomt of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpomt on the portrayal of Satan and thmgs Satanic m present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and

were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And m return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was

This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is desClibed as tactical deception, to be distinguiShed from the ordiruuy sort of deception, such as

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad
Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and milita:ry. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show.
Now I wish to simply suggest that eve:ry single one of you should buy, read and study this book ve:ry carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a '1aw enforcement guru" by Soldier of Fortune magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous
publications from Black Belt magazine to Combat Handgzms magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must

in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfightlng techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashlng some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Ju:ry will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will betried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that ifhe hadtoshoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked Wm lf
maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explostons to cause 1
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation.

Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a ,. court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derrtnger which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have
used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Ju:ry why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be ve:ry, ve:ry careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the
stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world histo:ry.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidd_en from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrtflces.

In the actual script of 'Jhe God-Eater. the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human mise:ry is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Anger's film Lucifer Rising and owns Boleskine House, the
Beast's one-time Highland home).
:Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over lnnsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manusClipts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manusCiipts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

:If you've been following the tracingS ofreal Satanism through histo:ry that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a myste:ry as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued
presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."
These folk have previously brought us more speculative
material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

ustening to this record brings back a time when music
was a tool to lift man's spirit, to inspire, to drive: not Simply something to serve as "cruise control" background music for shopping mall ambience. The message is loud and clear:
even those who do not keep up with the so-called ''Manson
mystique" will be intoxicated by the beautiful power behind thiS full length LP. Many who may have heard television tnterviews or seen actual pieces of writing by Manson may
ï have found his words confusing or his ideas hard to understand when voiced in his unique way of speaking which often borders on being stream-of-consciousness. Not so with the songs on this recording. While many of his ideas
are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as
to be revelations. MuSic is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of Side one states, HOW ELSE DO YOU7HJNK I COUI.D TAI.K Wll1l YOU EXCE/TI'THROUGH 'IHE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU7HINK I COUI.D S'IOP'IHE CONFUSION IN YOURMIND? SO COME ON.

YOU WILL BE DEAD ('This particular phrase was spontaneously uttered by one of the girls as they sang together). One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the
knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting
accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majortty will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will anydare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will beSinging that haunting refrain:

IN PURSUIT OF SATAN. THE POUCE AND TiiE
OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting. Here at last is a volume that fills the order.
Hicks, a former police officer, is presently a criminal

this booklet is written in a style reminiscent of The EDWARD SCISSORHANDS directed by Tim Burton.

contemponuy Satanism-as-conspiracy (a model of crJmina1 behavior which is founded on no hard evidence), from the poor wretches suffering from MPD to the profesSional "Satan Busters" who are making a livelihood off of the promotion of this scam that folklorists are now studying as a new urban legend. Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention
that it deserves because it proves that the gruesome ravings are just that.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

0-8129-1853-3, $21.95, hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the_ Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his viSion to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about whywe should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Prtce is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outSider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discusSions afterwards.

SILENCE OF 1HE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thrtller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, whouses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he wascaptured bya law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, ifhe lethimself go. would be one himself (this is all materlal that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot

Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s
thatI was, at thiS point in the discussion. uninterested in anything thiS person bad to say on any subject, due to her overwhelming presumptuousness. If I had known ahead of time that she bated the writingS of Ayn Rand, I wouldn't have said as the first thing upon meeting her, "Oh you're the one who doesn't like Ayn Rand. We're gonna have to havea talk."I call thiS the command to look...like an asshole! (See J. Waynes's article in TBF Vol. 2, #2.) Satanists strive for ctvil17.ed behavior, until brutality becomes necessary.
If Satanists refuse to be brought down to the level of the
fools to which we are in opposition, maybe our arguments will be HEARD- Even rational arguments will be lost on rational people if the manner in which they're presented 1s uncouth. Behavior like rve been describing 1s a sign of weakness, something I really despise. Remember those tmmortal

Another form of excuse-making to avoid 1s pretentious

words from the Book of Satan:
'"Ibrice cursed are the weak whose tnsecurity makes
them vile, for they shall serve and suffer."

counterfeit-elitism. What thiS means, ts just because you're

a Satanist doesn't mean that you shouldn't be continually subjected to the same scrutiny as anyone else would have to endure. It has been said that "Satanists are bom. not made," BUT, you still have to grow up. You area god asa Satanist, but you still have the opportunity to bea childish,
narcissiStic god if you so choose.

Instead of relying on the kind of metoric I've Just described, what we ought to rely on 1s our always asking, "Why?" Ask yourself once in a while whether you've goat
better reason for a point of view than. " 'cause I'ma Satanist." Using trrelevent information to defend one's philosophy ts another bad corner to back into.I was speaking witha Jew recently who said he didn't really believe in God or most of what his Jewish doctrine bas to say.

The Green Dragon was also a well-

His libra:ry and personal collection of artifacts were donated to the government upon his death and the books became the foundation of the IJbra:ry of Congress. Many of these books and curios originated outside of the Judeo-Christian culture and would today be balTed from paroch:lal or church collections as "pagan" and "anti-Christian."A trip to his home, "Monticello," in Charlottesville.

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Book of Fate than that these people are to
be free." This is a misquote however. as where a period has been placed should be a semicolon. Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God. Obviously, Jefferson's words have been distorted here. in the interests of what we would call today "Political Correctness."

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

are all Christians) bya desire to regiment and control. to squash all Earthly pride and skill. and to snip the testicles off of anything not dJsplaymg the appropriate Chdstlan meekness. Needless to say. they despised the Southern aristocrats as
paragons of all the Virtues they deemed "Satanic:" Sdentlfic, materialist. practical, self-sufflctent worldly, sensual, Hellenic∑ "manly," In a word. ï

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep
the country from splitting in. They failed.

Upon the election of Abraham Unca!n to the oftlce of President in November.
l 860. the matter had reached the point of no return. To the Southerners, this man. openly opposed to slavery, openly in favor
of maintaining the union at the expense of individual liberties of the subj:ct states -if reqUired, represented what they most

to the Charlestontans was that Lincoln l

today between the country of Uthuania and k
its attempts to break free of the SoViet ' Union. Every step taken by either party fn such hJghly-charged situations is of
profound significant to the participants thereof.

What sort of persons were these Char∑ lestonians? Who were the ringleaders in the ) assault upon Ft. Sumter? An examination
of military leaders, such as PJen-e G.T. Beauregard, who were at the scene at the '-:. tlme the war started. will again turn up our conunon denomtnator: they were Masons.
In fact, the dty of Charleston was a maj>r

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

ARMA VIRUMQUE CANO!

HAIL LIDDY!

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo

IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to express a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look upon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?

Satanists who feel this way would be well served by reading ''Mein Kampf''. Hitler recognized that the masses are sheeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it, glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attributing it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

:This self-sacrificing will to give one's personal labor and if necessary one's own life for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan... Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. If he had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation requires that the individual renounce putting forward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)*
:
:In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national body... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sorry to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)
:
:'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most varying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjoyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No LaVey challenging each man to live for himself and take his own vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organisms, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not worry about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which '''that authority''' considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up being abused to select in favor of characteristics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothing to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on doing so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. The fit would prove their fitness by surviving. The unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. The so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial characteristics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Christianity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.** In doing so, he was defending the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Naziism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-Semitism is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Christianity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

==Sparks -What's Going on Out There==
by Peggy Nadramia

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of ''Rolling Stone'' contains a cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist could resist. ''RS'' often contains some first-class articles (chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.

The author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's on-screen persona while nevertheless revealing the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action, identity, and will. "Real tough people," he says, may feel pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pop hit, to "let someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist, I knew that cute lil Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum.

By now everyone knows this was the beginning of one of those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in ''The Choking Doberman'' and other titles. P&G is ''not'' affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon is not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Christian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesting enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. they'll I finally the moon and stars in a circle.

Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied handout advocating a boycott of their many products (including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the -- very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has successfully filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway distributors. Amway reps sell household products (like soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system similar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major TV talk shows like ''Donahue'' and ''Morton Downey, Jr.'' and has a weekday radio talk show called ''Talk Back'', syndicated nationwide on many Christian networks. Bob has a thing for Satanists, and loves to read aloud from the pages of ''The Satanic Bible'' and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and now novelist (''Dead Air''. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on ''Talk Back'' have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts," and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:

"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-ins are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than another broadcaster!

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears.
You flick your tongue to taste my skin.
I smile at this benediction.
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard?

I've seen you at the hunt; myheart has leapt with the beauty of your movements.
You sink to your haunches in the grass,
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. When the prey Js close enough to capture, you boil with movement, a streak of black, white teeth flashing.
You kill the squirrel quickly, although mercy Js not what you feel.
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion.
You taste the fresh meat, bwy the rest for a day of possible hunger.

They tell me dogs want to be free.
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's where you want to be.
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. Once we were the same,
predators who lived in packs.
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. I see the Satan in you every moment.
even when you sleep
in utter peace and relaxation.
So why shouldn't your simple regard
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings?
Hail, to you who neither need
nor want such accolade,
Hail, child of my heart

HOLLYWOOD AND THE SUPERNATURAL by Sherry
Hansen-Steiger and Brad Steiger. (St. Martm's Press. New York, 1990; 269 pages, ISBN 0-312-05098-4, $19.95,
hardcover.) Takes a sort of supermarket tabloid,
gee-whiz-wow handle on the supernatural m general and the star-crossed lives of movie stars m particular, mcluding a "directory of mediums, channels and psychics." The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headmgs like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and ''Peter Sellers' Guidance From the Spirit World." Toe strong pomt of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpomt on the portrayal of Satan and thmgs Satanic m present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and

collection of photos accomplishes, is to pomt out the recurrmg types we see every day. There's a chapter entitled, ''Tough Tomatoes, Or, My, Isn't She Cheap?" and one called "Losers: He Should Have Stood m Bed." If you're out to change your look to accomplish certain goals or simply to reinforce your strengthenmg core se1( you might"find some I models m these pages. Meyers also gives a tight little
analysis of the moviegoing experience m his Preface, and the l definition is quite magical: "Your ticket admitted you mtoa grotto-like world m which your anonymity was perfectly protected by the gentle enveloping darkness, though you
were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And m return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was
larger than life, your reactions to it were also larger than life;
for your laughter, your sympathy or your tears merged with the same reaction of every other member of the audience, and came back to you, magnified a hundred-fold."

Here's a lighthearted article to tlckle your Satanic fancy. The author describes, in a very entertaining style, the recent discovery- of a previously unnoticed behavior pattern among the primates. This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is desClibed as tactical deception, to be distinguiShed from the ordiruuy sort of deception, such as

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad
Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and milita:ry. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show.
Now I wish to simply suggest that eve:ry single one of you should buy, read and study this book ve:ry carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a '1aw enforcement guru" by Soldier of Fortune magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous
publications from Black Belt magazine to Combat Handgzms magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must

in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfightlng techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashlng some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Ju:ry will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will betried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that ifhe hadtoshoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked Wm lf
maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explostons to cause 1
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation.

Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a ,. court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derrtnger which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have
used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Ju:ry why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be ve:ry, ve:ry careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the
stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world histo:ry.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidd_en from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrtflces.

In the actual script of 'Jhe God-Eater. the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human mise:ry is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Anger's film Lucifer Rising and owns Boleskine House, the
Beast's one-time Highland home).
:Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over lnnsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manusClipts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manusCiipts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

THE TEMPLE AND THE LODGE by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. (Arcade Publishing, New York, 1989; 306 pages, includes maps and photographs, ISBN 1-55970
-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.
:If you've been following the tracingS ofreal Satanism through histo:ry that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a myste:ry as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued
presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."
These folk have previously brought us more speculative
material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

ustening to this record brings back a time when music
was a tool to lift man's spirit, to inspire, to drive: not Simply something to serve as "cruise control" background music for shopping mall ambience. The message is loud and clear:
even those who do not keep up with the so-called ''Manson
mystique" will be intoxicated by the beautiful power behind thiS full length LP. Many who may have heard television tnterviews or seen actual pieces of writing by Manson may
ï have found his words confusing or his ideas hard to understand when voiced in his unique way of speaking which often borders on being stream-of-consciousness. Not so with the songs on this recording. While many of his ideas
are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as
to be revelations. MuSic is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of Side one states, HOW ELSE DO YOU7HJNK I COUI.D TAI.K Wll1l YOU EXCE/TI'THROUGH 'IHE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU7HINK I COUI.D S'IOP'IHE CONFUSION IN YOURMIND? SO COME ON.

YOU WILL BE DEAD ('This particular phrase was spontaneously uttered by one of the girls as they sang together). One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the
knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting
accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majortty will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will anydare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will beSinging that haunting refrain:

IN PURSUIT OF SATAN. THE POUCE AND TiiE
OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting. Here at last is a volume that fills the order.

sentiments like ''Look inSide yourself for your father"-- this is one "family" that communes intimately with the spirits of its

contemponuy Satanism-as-conspiracy (a model of crJmina1 behavior which is founded on no hard evidence), from the poor wretches suffering from MPD to the profesSional "Satan Busters" who are making a livelihood off of the promotion of this scam that folklorists are now studying as a new urban legend. Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention
that it deserves because it proves that the gruesome ravings are just that.

hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

cares about the direction of education.

(nmes Books, New York, 1991; 466 pages, ISBN ,I
0-8129-1853-3, $21.95, hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

where you can explore representative cuts from a wide range of some of the best talent on the Swedish scene. Also good for.putting on and quizzing friends who claim to be
know-it-alls to see if they can indeed name the artists.

For you Manson Family_ completists. here are lovely renditions of two songs ortginally written and performed by Brooks Poston and Paul Watkins, perlormed on this release by Eric Foxx and Robert Petri with delicacy and grace.
Though not complex or exceedingly profound, there is a quality of sweetness and melancholy, as well as alienation, that wafts through these all too short works.

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the_ Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his viSion to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about whywe should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Prtce is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outSider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discusSions afterwards.

SILENCE OF 1HE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thrtller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, whouses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he wascaptured bya law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, ifhe lethimself go. would be one himself (this is all materlal that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

Just do as I'm told

Your whining sham of right and wrong

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

==Satanist, Heal Thyself! I'd Rather Not...==
by Magdalene Graham

I HAD A LOVELY COMPLIMENT yesterday, when the locai I milk supplier called at my new apartment (at 8:30 a.m.) to
arrange milk deliveries. I am an early riser. Low-necked dress, fully made-up and perfume concocted exclustvely for
me by Sorcerer's Apprentice. Milkman gazed at me leanmg 1 on my walking-frame and said 'You don't look like an in- valid." I said '1nvalidity is in the mind, not in the body." fDI:s ∑ Adept told me that, long ago - he was right as always,
though it often takes time to appreciate the truth of his
statements). Milkman said "It's a pity more people don't
think like that." I could have replied (but I didn't) that it's rï1
only for Satanists.

Being classified as Disabled has more advantages than disadvantages. I have a guaranteed income which, With aJ1 the allowances and supplements and rebates and anything else that's going, amounts to as much as an over-taxed wage-slave would earn fornine-to-five hard labor, and I have to do nothing for it. I can, of course, supplement that in-
come (discreetly). I have always hated housework and would ) pay a cleaner in preference to taking a holiday; now my servants are paid by the Government. Holiday also comes free
if I fancy a trip to the seaside...might be fun.

As I progress down the street in my motorized wheelchair, traffic makes wayfor me. People open doors and rush to help. It makes them feel good, so I'm doing them a favor.
In the clothes-shops, the assistant will be only too delighted \
to help Madam try on the dresses. Being bisexual, I've had I
some interesting encounters in fitting-rooms - must be the feminine equivalent of "cottages."

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot
walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s
thatI was, at thiS point in the discussion. uninterested in anything thiS person bad to say on any subject, due to her overwhelming presumptuousness. If I had known ahead of time that she bated the writingS of Ayn Rand, I wouldn't have said as the first thing upon meeting her, "Oh you're the one who doesn't like Ayn Rand. We're gonna have to havea talk."I call thiS the command to look...like an asshole! (See J. Waynes's article in TBF Vol. 2, #2.) Satanists strive for ctvil17.ed behavior, until brutality becomes necessary.
If Satanists refuse to be brought down to the level of the
fools to which we are in opposition, maybe our arguments will be HEARD- Even rational arguments will be lost on rational people if the manner in which they're presented 1s uncouth. Behavior like rve been describing 1s a sign of weakness, something I really despise. Remember those tmmortal

Another form of excuse-making to avoid 1s pretentious

words from the Book of Satan:

counterfeit-elitism. What thiS means, ts just because you're

a Satanist doesn't mean that you shouldn't be continually subjected to the same scrutiny as anyone else would have to endure. It has been said that "Satanists are bom. not made," BUT, you still have to grow up. You area god asa Satanist, but you still have the opportunity to bea childish,
narcissiStic god if you so choose.

Instead of relying on the kind of metoric I've Just described, what we ought to rely on 1s our always asking, "Why?" Ask yourself once in a while whether you've goat

His libra:ry and personal collection of artifacts were donated to the government upon his death and the books became the foundation of the IJbra:ry of Congress. Many of these books and curios originated outside of the Judeo-Christian culture and would today be balTed from paroch:lal or church collections as "pagan" and "anti-Christian."A trip to his home, "Monticello," in Charlottesville.

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God. Obviously, Jefferson's words have been distorted here. in the interests of what we would call today "Political Correctness."

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

paragons of all the Virtues they deemed "Satanic:" Sdentlfic, materialist. practical, self-sufflctent worldly, sensual, Hellenic∑ "manly," In a word. ï

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep
the country from splitting in. They failed.

Upon the election of Abraham Unca!n to the oftlce of President in November.

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

Please notify us of your interest and you will be sent information on how to order the book once it is available. Distribution and wholesale inquiries are welcome.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo

IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to express a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look upon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?

Satanists who feel this way would be well served by reading ''Mein Kampf''. Hitler recognized that the masses are sheeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it, glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attributing it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

:This self-sacrificing will to give one's personal labor and if necessary one's own life for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan... Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. If he had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation requires that the individual renounce putting forward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)*
:
:In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national body... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sorry to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)
:
:'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most varying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjoyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No LaVey challenging each man to live for himself and take his own vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organisms, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not worry about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which '''that authority''' considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up being abused to select in favor of characteristics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothing to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on doing so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. The fit would prove their fitness by surviving. The unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. The so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial characteristics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Christianity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.** In doing so, he was defending the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Naziism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-Semitism is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Christianity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of RollingStonecontaJnsa
cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist
could resist. RSoften contains some first-class articles l,
(chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) r
despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help
liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star I
who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.
Toe author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted
in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's
on-screen persona while nevertheless revealhlg the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action,
identity, and will. ''Real tough people," he says, may feel 'r
pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pophit, to '1et someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist. I knew that cute li1 Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum. ,
By now everyone knows this wasthe beginning of one of
those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in The Choking Doberman and other titles. P&G iS not affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon iS not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Chrtstian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the
various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesttng!Y 1 enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a
circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign n
language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. thell I
finally the moon and stars in a circle.
Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor

very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has
successfullY filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway cUstrtbutors. Amway reps sell household products (llite soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system
stmflar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all
those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major 1V talk shows like Donahue ancl Madon Downey, Jr. and has a weekday radio talk show called Tulk Back, syndicated nationwide on many Chrtstian networks. Bob has a thing forSatanists, andloves to read aloud from the pages of The Satantc Bible and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and nownovelist (Dead Air. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on Talk Back have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts,'1 and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:
"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-inS are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than anyother broadcaster! You may be

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears.
You flick your tongue to taste my skin.
I smile at this benediction.
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard?

I've seen you at the hunt; myheart has leapt with the beauty of your movements.
You sink to your haunches in the grass,
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. When the prey Js close enough to capture, you boil with movement, a streak of black, white teeth flashing.
You kill the squirrel quickly, although mercy Js not what you feel.
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion.
You taste the fresh meat, bwy the rest for a day of possible hunger.

They tell me dogs want to be free.
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's where you want to be.
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. Once we were the same,
predators who lived in packs.
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. I see the Satan in you every moment.
even when you sleep
in utter peace and relaxation.
So why shouldn't your simple regard
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings?
Hail, to you who neither need
nor want such accolade,
Hail, child of my heart

Hansen-Steiger and Brad Steiger. (St. Martm's Press. New York, 1990; 269 pages, ISBN 0-312-05098-4, $19.95,

gee-whiz-wow handle on the supernatural m general and the star-crossed lives of movie stars m particular, mcluding a "directory of mediums, channels and psychics." The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headmgs like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and ''Peter Sellers' Guidance From the Spirit World." Toe strong pomt of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpomt on the portrayal of Satan and thmgs Satanic m present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and

collection of photos accomplishes, is to pomt out the recurrmg types we see every day.

If you're out to change your look to accomplish certain goals or simply to reinforce your strengthenmg core se1( you might"find some I models m these pages. Meyers also gives a tight little
analysis of the moviegoing experience m his Preface, and the l definition is quite magical: "Your ticket admitted you mtoa grotto-like world m which your anonymity was perfectly protected by the gentle enveloping darkness, though you
were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And m return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was
larger than life, your reactions to it were also larger than life;
for your laughter, your sympathy or your tears merged with the same reaction of every other member of the audience, and came back to you, magnified a hundred-fold."

Here's a lighthearted article to tlckle your Satanic fancy. The author describes, in a very entertaining style, the recent discovery- of a previously unnoticed behavior pattern among the primates. This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is desClibed as tactical deception, to be distinguiShed from the ordiruuy sort of deception, such as

Tactical deception is the out-and-out tricke:ry used to get what one wants, usually by fooling the members of one's own species, rather than other Clitters. The use of this tactical deception seems to be directly linked to brain size.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad
Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and milita:ry. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show.
Now I wish to simply suggest that eve:ry single one of you should buy, read and study this book ve:ry carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a '1aw enforcement guru" by Soldier of Fortune magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous
publications from Black Belt magazine to Combat Handgzms magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must

in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfightlng techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashlng some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Ju:ry will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will betried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that ifhe hadtoshoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked Wm lf
maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explostons to cause 1
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation.

Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a ,. court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derrtnger which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have
used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Ju:ry why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be ve:ry, ve:ry careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the
stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world histo:ry.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidd_en from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrtflces.

In the actual script of 'Jhe God-Eater. the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human mise:ry is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Anger's film Lucifer Rising and owns Boleskine House, the
Beast's one-time Highland home).
:Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over lnnsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manusClipts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manusCiipts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

THE TEMPLE AND THE LODGE by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. (Arcade Publishing, New York, 1989; 306 pages, includes maps and photographs, ISBN 1-55970
-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.
:If you've been following the tracingS ofreal Satanism through histo:ry that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a myste:ry as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued
presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."
These folk have previously brought us more speculative
material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

ustening to this record brings back a time when music
was a tool to lift man's spirit, to inspire, to drive: not Simply something to serve as "cruise control" background music for shopping mall ambience. The message is loud and clear:
even those who do not keep up with the so-called ''Manson
mystique" will be intoxicated by the beautiful power behind thiS full length LP. Many who may have heard television tnterviews or seen actual pieces of writing by Manson may
ï have found his words confusing or his ideas hard to understand when voiced in his unique way of speaking which often borders on being stream-of-consciousness. Not so with the songs on this recording. While many of his ideas
are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as
to be revelations. MuSic is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of Side one states, HOW ELSE DO YOU7HJNK I COUI.D TAI.K Wll1l YOU EXCE/TI'THROUGH 'IHE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU7HINK I COUI.D S'IOP'IHE CONFUSION IN YOURMIND? SO COME ON.

YOU WILL BE DEAD ('This particular phrase was spontaneously uttered by one of the girls as they sang together). One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the
knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting
accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majortty will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will anydare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will beSinging that haunting refrain:

IN PURSUIT OF SATAN. THE POUCE AND TiiE
OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting. Here at last is a volume that fills the order.

Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention
that it deserves because it proves that the gruesome ravings are just that.

hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

(nmes Books, New York, 1991; 466 pages, ISBN ,I
0-8129-1853-3, $21.95, hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the_ Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his viSion to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about whywe should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Prtce is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outSider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discusSions afterwards.

SILENCE OF 1HE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thrtller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, whouses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he wascaptured bya law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, ifhe lethimself go. would be one himself (this is all materlal that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

==Satanist, Heal Thyself! I'd Rather Not...==
by Magdalene Graham

I HAD A LOVELY COMPLIMENT yesterday, when the locai I milk supplier called at my new apartment (at 8:30 a.m.) to
arrange milk deliveries. I am an early riser. Low-necked dress, fully made-up and perfume concocted exclustvely for
me by Sorcerer's Apprentice. Milkman gazed at me leanmg 1 on my walking-frame and said 'You don't look like an in- valid." I said '1nvalidity is in the mind, not in the body." fDI:s ∑ Adept told me that, long ago - he was right as always,
though it often takes time to appreciate the truth of his
statements). Milkman said "It's a pity more people don't
think like that." I could have replied (but I didn't) that it's rï1
only for Satanists.

Being classified as Disabled has more advantages than disadvantages. I have a guaranteed income which, With aJ1 the allowances and supplements and rebates and anything else that's going, amounts to as much as an over-taxed wage-slave would earn fornine-to-five hard labor, and I have to do nothing for it. I can, of course, supplement that in-
come (discreetly). I have always hated housework and would ) pay a cleaner in preference to taking a holiday; now my servants are paid by the Government. Holiday also comes free
if I fancy a trip to the seaside...might be fun.

As I progress down the street in my motorized wheelchair, traffic makes wayfor me. People open doors and rush to help. It makes them feel good, so I'm doing them a favor.
In the clothes-shops, the assistant will be only too delighted \
to help Madam try on the dresses. Being bisexual, I've had I
some interesting encounters in fitting-rooms - must be the feminine equivalent of "cottages."

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot
walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

So, you see, it is possible to be a Satanic Witch in a wheelchair.

No, Wiccan. I agree With your rejectlon of being a

Witches, REAL Witches, ARE Satanic! They take great big

They go crazy by stupidly swallowing stupid want

bites out of life and swallow them whole! Witches crush their enemies and are feared, not pitied! Witches kick ass, seduce men and love life! I have met REAL Witches and they DO get what they want, when and how they want it. They don't worship nature, they RULE it!

Wimpy Wiccans, I pity you. You are like a distorted image, a broken mirror. You claim the fame but fear the Name AND WEIL YOU SHOULD! You who lack any power tn this world toy With the symbols of Satan! You who would be witches, deny the Name! You who would ride the night, control the mtnds of men and rise to glory, instead wallow tn the mud of your identical Christian twtn.

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s
thatI was, at thiS point in the discussion. uninterested in anything thiS person bad to say on any subject, due to her overwhelming presumptuousness. If I had known ahead of time that she bated the writingS of Ayn Rand, I wouldn't have said as the first thing upon meeting her, "Oh you're the one who doesn't like Ayn Rand. We're gonna have to havea talk."I call thiS the command to look...like an asshole! (See J. Waynes's article in TBF Vol. 2, #2.) Satanists strive for ctvil17.ed behavior, until brutality becomes necessary.
If Satanists refuse to be brought down to the level of the
fools to which we are in opposition, maybe our arguments will be HEARD- Even rational arguments will be lost on rational people if the manner in which they're presented 1s uncouth. Behavior like rve been describing 1s a sign of weakness, something I really despise. Remember those tmmortal

Another form of excuse-making to avoid 1s pretentious

words from the Book of Satan:
'"Ibrice cursed are the weak whose tnsecurity makes
them vile, for they shall serve and suffer."

counterfeit-elitism. What thiS means, ts just because you're

a Satanist doesn't mean that you shouldn't be continually subjected to the same scrutiny as anyone else would have to endure. It has been said that "Satanists are bom. not made," BUT, you still have to grow up. You area god asa Satanist, but you still have the opportunity to bea childish,
narcissiStic god if you so choose.

Instead of relying on the kind of metoric I've Just described, what we ought to rely on 1s our always asking, "Why?" Ask yourself once in a while whether you've goat
better reason for a point of view than. " 'cause I'ma Satanist." Using trrelevent information to defend one's philosophy ts another bad corner to back into.I was speaking witha Jew recently who said he didn't really believe in God or most of what his Jewish doctrine bas to say.

The Tea Party was the act of a small band of Bostonians. all of whom frequented a tavern called the "Green Dragon". a hotbed of political discontent It was in this tavern. in fact. that the partlers gathered prior to their march to the docks.
The Green Dragon was also a well-

His libra:ry and personal collection of artifacts were donated to the government upon his death and the books became the foundation of the IJbra:ry of Congress. Many of these books and curios originated outside of the Judeo-Christian culture and would today be balTed from paroch:lal or church collections as "pagan" and "anti-Christian."A trip to his home, "Monticello," in Charlottesville.

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Book of Fate than that these people are to
be free." This is a misquote however. as where a period has been placed should be a semicolon. Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God. Obviously, Jefferson's words have been distorted here. in the interests of what we would call today "Political Correctness."

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

paragons of all the Virtues they deemed "Satanic:" Sdentlfic, materialist. practical, self-sufflctent worldly, sensual, Hellenic∑ "manly," In a word. ï

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep
the country from splitting in. They failed.

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

ARMA VIRUMQUE CANO!

HAIL LIDDY!

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

Please notify us of your interest and you will be sent information on how to order the book once it is available. Distribution and wholesale inquiries are welcome.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo
t/ !IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to
f' c,cpress a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look
∑ pon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?
ï., Satanists whofeel this waywould be well served by
/. rreac:Ung MeJn Kampf. Hitler recognized that the masses are j,:,,heeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it,
glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-
;;: sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attrtbuting it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

This self-sacri.6.cing will to give one's personal labor and ifnecessaiy one's ownlife for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan...Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. Ifhe had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation re'quireS that the individual renounce putting foxward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)ï

In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national f>ody... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sony to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)

'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most vaiying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjOyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No La Vey
.∑., challenging each man to live for himself and take his own
;.,rt Vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant
∑ demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of

the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organismS, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not wony about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics
means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which that authority considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated

concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough
badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied
arldouts advocating a boycott of their many products
(including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the

-- as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the
herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up behlg abused to select in favor of charactertstics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothmg to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on domg so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. Toe flt would prove their fitness by surviving. Toe unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. Toe so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial charactertstics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its Criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Chrtstlanity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.ïï In dohlg so, he was defendmg the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Nazi.ism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-8emitlsm is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Chrtstlanity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of RollingStonecontaJnsa
cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist
could resist. RSoften contains some first-class articles l,
(chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) r
despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help
liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star I
who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.
Toe author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted
in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's
on-screen persona while nevertheless revealhlg the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action,
identity, and will. ''Real tough people," he says, may feel 'r
pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pophit, to '1et someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist. I knew that cute li1 Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum. ,
By now everyone knows this wasthe beginning of one of
those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in The Choking Doberman and other titles. P&G iS not affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon iS not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Chrtstian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the
various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesttng!Y 1 enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a
circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign n
language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. thell I
finally the moon and stars in a circle.
Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor

very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has
successfullY filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway cUstrtbutors. Amway reps sell household products (llite soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system
stmflar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all
those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major 1V talk shows like Donahue ancl Madon Downey, Jr. and has a weekday radio talk show called Tulk Back, syndicated nationwide on many Chrtstian networks. Bob has a thing forSatanists, andloves to read aloud from the pages of The Satantc Bible and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and nownovelist (Dead Air. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on Talk Back have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts,'1 and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:
"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-inS are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself. Bob's given Satanists more time on the airwaves and more opportunity to explain our philosophy than anyother broadcaster! You may be

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears.
You flick your tongue to taste my skin.
I smile at this benediction.
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard?

I've seen you at the hunt; myheart has leapt with the beauty of your movements.
You sink to your haunches in the grass,
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. When the prey Js close enough to capture, you boil with movement, a streak of black, white teeth flashing.
You kill the squirrel quickly, although mercy Js not what you feel.
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion.
You taste the fresh meat, bwy the rest for a day of possible hunger.

They tell me dogs want to be free.
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's where you want to be.
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. Once we were the same,
predators who lived in packs.
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. I see the Satan in you every moment.
even when you sleep
in utter peace and relaxation.
So why shouldn't your simple regard
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings?
Hail, to you who neither need
nor want such accolade,
Hail, child of my heart

The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headmgs like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and ''Peter Sellers' Guidance From the Spirit World." Toe strong pomt of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpomt on the portrayal of Satan and thmgs Satanic m present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and

collection of photos accomplishes, is to pomt out the recurrmg types we see every day.

If you're out to change your look to accomplish certain goals or simply to reinforce your strengthenmg core se1( you might"find some I models m these pages. Meyers also gives a tight little
analysis of the moviegoing experience m his Preface, and the l definition is quite magical: "Your ticket admitted you mtoa grotto-like world m which your anonymity was perfectly protected by the gentle enveloping darkness, though you
were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And m return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was
larger than life, your reactions to it were also larger than life;
for your laughter, your sympathy or your tears merged with the same reaction of every other member of the audience, and came back to you, magnified a hundred-fold."

Here's a lighthearted article to tlckle your Satanic fancy. The author describes, in a very entertaining style, the recent discovery- of a previously unnoticed behavior pattern among the primates. This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is desClibed as tactical deception, to be distinguiShed from the ordiruuy sort of deception, such as

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad
Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and milita:ry. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show.
Now I wish to simply suggest that eve:ry single one of you should buy, read and study this book ve:ry carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a '1aw enforcement guru" by Soldier of Fortune magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous
publications from Black Belt magazine to Combat Handgzms magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must

in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfightlng techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashlng some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Ju:ry will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will betried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that ifhe hadtoshoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked Wm lf
maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explostons to cause 1
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation.

Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a ,. court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derrtnger which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have
used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Ju:ry why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be ve:ry, ve:ry careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the
stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world histo:ry.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidd_en from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrtflces.

In the actual script of 'Jhe God-Eater. the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human mise:ry is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Beast's one-time Highland home).
:Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over lnnsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manusClipts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manusCiipts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

THE TEMPLE AND THE LODGE by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. (Arcade Publishing, New York, 1989; 306 pages, includes maps and photographs, ISBN 1-55970
-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.
:If you've been following the tracingS ofreal Satanism through histo:ry that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a myste:ry as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued
presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."
These folk have previously brought us more speculative
material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as
to be revelations. MuSic is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of Side one states, HOW ELSE DO YOU7HJNK I COUI.D TAI.K Wll1l YOU EXCE/TI'THROUGH 'IHE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU7HINK I COUI.D S'IOP'IHE CONFUSION IN YOURMIND? SO COME ON.

One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the
knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting
accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

On the back of the record is a short notice to buyers that the release is "not presented to provide you with cheap vicarious thrllls," but you can be certain that a large majortty will buy it for this reason. That is fine: the philosophical power behind the "innocent" record is strong enough to plant seeds in the few fertile minds that may come across it. It iS both delicious food for thought and action. Here is the torch being passed to the next generation -- will anydare accept the honor? If some are to step forth, one can only hope they will beSinging that haunting refrain:

IN PURSUIT OF SATAN. THE POUCE AND TiiE
OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting.

Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention
that it deserves because it proves that the gruesome ravings are just that.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the_ Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his viSion to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about whywe should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Prtce is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outSider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discusSions afterwards.

SILENCE OF 1HE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thrtller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, whouses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he wascaptured bya law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, ifhe lethimself go. would be one himself (this is all materlal that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

==Satanist, Heal Thyself! I'd Rather Not...==
by Magdalene Graham

I HAD A LOVELY COMPLIMENT yesterday, when the locai I milk supplier called at my new apartment (at 8:30 a.m.) to
arrange milk deliveries. I am an early riser. Low-necked dress, fully made-up and perfume concocted exclustvely for
me by Sorcerer's Apprentice. Milkman gazed at me leanmg 1 on my walking-frame and said 'You don't look like an in- valid." I said '1nvalidity is in the mind, not in the body." fDI:s ∑ Adept told me that, long ago - he was right as always,
though it often takes time to appreciate the truth of his
statements). Milkman said "It's a pity more people don't
think like that." I could have replied (but I didn't) that it's rï1
only for Satanists.

Being classified as Disabled has more advantages than disadvantages. I have a guaranteed income which, With aJ1 the allowances and supplements and rebates and anything else that's going, amounts to as much as an over-taxed wage-slave would earn fornine-to-five hard labor, and I have to do nothing for it. I can, of course, supplement that in-
come (discreetly). I have always hated housework and would ) pay a cleaner in preference to taking a holiday; now my servants are paid by the Government. Holiday also comes free
if I fancy a trip to the seaside...might be fun.

As I progress down the street in my motorized wheelchair, traffic makes wayfor me. People open doors and rush to help. It makes them feel good, so I'm doing them a favor.
In the clothes-shops, the assistant will be only too delighted \
to help Madam try on the dresses. Being bisexual, I've had I
some interesting encounters in fitting-rooms - must be the feminine equivalent of "cottages."

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot
walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

So, you see, it is possible to be a Satanic Witch in a wheelchair.

==On Not Sinking to the Enemy's Level==
by Reuben Radding
W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s
thatI was, at thiS point in the discussion. uninterested in anything thiS person bad to say on any subject, due to her overwhelming presumptuousness. If I had known ahead of time that she bated the writingS of Ayn Rand, I wouldn't have said as the first thing upon meeting her, "Oh you're the one who doesn't like Ayn Rand. We're gonna have to havea talk."I call thiS the command to look...like an asshole! (See J. Waynes's article in TBF Vol. 2, #2.) Satanists strive for ctvil17.ed behavior, until brutality becomes necessary.
If Satanists refuse to be brought down to the level of the
fools to which we are in opposition, maybe our arguments will be HEARD- Even rational arguments will be lost on rational people if the manner in which they're presented 1s uncouth. Behavior like rve been describing 1s a sign of weakness, something I really despise. Remember those tmmortal

Another form of excuse-making to avoid 1s pretentious

counterfeit-elitism. What thiS means, ts just because you're

a Satanist doesn't mean that you shouldn't be continually subjected to the same scrutiny as anyone else would have to endure. It has been said that "Satanists are bom. not made," BUT, you still have to grow up. You area god asa Satanist, but you still have the opportunity to bea childish,
narcissiStic god if you so choose.

Instead of relying on the kind of metoric I've Just described, what we ought to rely on 1s our always asking, "Why?" Ask yourself once in a while whether you've goat

The Tea Party was the act of a small band of Bostonians. all of whom frequented a tavern called the "Green Dragon". a hotbed of political discontent It was in this tavern. in fact. that the partlers gathered prior to their march to the docks.
The Green Dragon was also a well-

His libra:ry and personal collection of artifacts were donated to the government upon his death and the books became the foundation of the IJbra:ry of Congress. Many of these books and curios originated outside of the Judeo-Christian culture and would today be balTed from paroch:lal or church collections as "pagan" and "anti-Christian."A trip to his home, "Monticello," in Charlottesville. Virginia. would give the curious some indication of his inspirations. There are many other examples of Masonic influence to be noted. I shall below concern myself with two. which

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God. Obviously, Jefferson's words have been distorted here. in the interests of what we would call today "Political Correctness."

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

paragons of all the Virtues they deemed "Satanic:" Sdentlfic, materialist. practical, self-sufflctent worldly, sensual, Hellenic∑ "manly," In a word. ï

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep
the country from splitting in. They failed.

Upon the election of Abraham Unca!n to the oftlce of President in November.

Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.

==Misanthropy, The Satanic Lifestyle==
by Peter H. Gilmore

SATANISM IS NOT HUMANISM. We view our entire species as one that is presently riddled with corruption and in need of Darwinian purification. We do not hate humanity. No, that is far too strong and personal a term to be used: rather we are filled with disgust at the spectacle of the milling hordes that cover our lovely globe and soil it with their presence. Anything that promotes
large-scale depopulation is a boon to our present situation. Human life, in and of itself, is '''not''' considered valuable; it is the worth of ''particular'' humans that matters to the Satanist.

Satanists consider it an achievement to shape their lives so that their interactions with people in general are limited to situations chosen specifically by the individual. This is one of our criteria for advancement.

What then of Love and Hate? These are two emotions that Satanists hold to be of paramount importance, and both are '''earned''' from Satanists, not dispensed frivolously. Unlike the adherents of altruistic creeds, Satanists develop their own personal value system, a hierarchy of values by which they live. Personal survival is of course at the top of the list, and any who threaten that become enemies. Hatred is awarded to those who ''go out of their way'' to personally thwart your existence, and such people are '''very''' rare. Love is awarded to those who fulfill your highest values, who are shining and inspirational examples of what you consider to be the best possible in a human being- also very rare. Satanists do all that they can to make their loved ones happy, for by giving them pleasure, one is pleased. A Satanist would even be willing to give up his life for a loved one, and this is '''not''' a sacrifice, for to live without the loved one would be unendurable torture. Our love is not given lightly, nor is our hate. The Satanic life style is thus one in which we deal with the general public as little as possible, and have a small circle of very highly valued people who energize us by their presence. We are truly selfish, aware of our unique personalities and very giving to those whose existence serves to brighten the world for us. Those who would personally attack us are forewarned that they will get their enmity back, compounded with interest.

This '''is''' the natural state for the human animal, which Satanism has defined as a philosophy. Beware of those preaching love for all and hatred towards none, for these "humanists" have twisted their natures beyond repair and have devalued those terms to utter meaninglessness. We '''do''' know the meaning of love and hate, as our loved ones and our enemies can well attest. Most people do not rate either response, and may go about their middling ways, while we are engaged with those who truly matter to us, the worthy and the accomplished.

==G. Gordon Liddy: Will==
by Reuben Radding

Things were going well, too well I decided. I needed more stress to bring my will to maximum power. I turned to my old reliable method of ordeal by fire...I selected a particularly strong-willed black bank robber nemed (''sic'') "Tex' with whom to engage in a battle of wills. Ready with a box of wooden matches, I got him to the point where he expressed disbelief and challenged me. 'Strike a match,' I said to Tex, and locked my eyes into his...! put my left forearm directly over the flame."
--WILL

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

I KEEP FINDING MYSELF speaking of G. Gordon Liddy in the past tense, and upon catching myself in the act, I realize it's because he seems to belong to another time. I have a damned hard time believing that a man such as George Gordon Battle Liddy is alive--here, IN MY WORLD! Today, while even the most acclaimed men of our time seem so commonplace, leaders of men reduced to mere "communicators," Liddy smuggles us back to an era when great men LIVED. Back! To an era when men travelled great distances to do valiant deeds, when men strove for excellence in their every endeavor, when a man's word meant something, when men lived by values based on individual life, when men earned their romances and showed compassion only to those deserving, when men's ideals were higher than any mere "God," when men protected their wealth with their own hand, and showed the inhabitants of the past and future worlds that LIFE MATTERS. This man, Liddy, is a Satanic Saint.

My hero has written his autobiography. Eleven years ago, when ''Will'' first hit the shelves, my hero was looked upon with awe and contempt by the public for his role in the Watergate break-in and resulting scandal. His full career revealed, he became a legend as stories circulated (whispered behind cupped hands) of screenings of Nazi films for the White House staff, of hands held over candle flames, and the ultimate taboo: a prison sentence. Now I ask you, fellow travellers of the Left-Hand Path, not to look upon my hero as a psychotic malefactor. No. look to him with the
Pride you feel toward a true brother. Here stands a man who demanded to be the captain of his soul, the author of what I feel is one of the finest examples of American Satanica.

The colossal power of ''Will'', the book. comes from the greatness of Liddy, the man. Had my hero been less of a man, ''Will'' would not convey the brilliance and grandeur it does. This is not simply the story of a man's life; heroic DEEDS may be done, but what makes the man heroic? Not his deeds but his very being. A dedication to values, ethics, personal justice, a PURPOSE. Here you will find Satanic theory...and practice.
Unlike the impotent poseurs from the annals of herodom who would have you believe they were born mighty, strong, and brave, Liddy soils the reader with no such hogwash. On the contrary, his humble beginnings are the focus of his struggle--the impetus for his eventual triumph and glory.

A weak and frightened child, my hero dreamed of becoming a strong, brave, man. Liddy found the inspiration for the re-creation of his body and soul (in his own image) by listening to Hitler speak on the radio. Slowly but surely he saw his way out of his fears:

"I knew what I had to do. and I dreaded it. To change myself from a puny, fearful boy to a strong, fearless man, I would have to face my fears, one by one, and overcome them. I knew that would take willpower. Even Adolph Hitler agreed. He and his people would triumph through the power of their superior will...That was the key. Whatever the consequences of what I was to do, I must accept and endure them--outlast suffering to achieve my goals...My fears were so many and so gripping that overcoming them, one by one, would build incredible willpower! The world opened up to me. I could become anything I wanted to be! The thought took my breath away."

The extremeism (''sic'') that Liddy was to become known for was shaped by these experiences. His technique of forcing himself to endure that which he most feared taught him lessons not of suffering and pain, but of the freedom gained when released from these inhibiting factors. As he would later declare, the lesson he learned as a boy was: "defeat the fear of death, and welcome the death of fear."

<nowiki>*** *** ***</nowiki>

Now this wonderfully bedeviled volume has been re-released to an unsuspecting public, perhaps not psychologically ready for the ideas contained therein. Toe same herd that denies "Lex Talionis" will, no doubt, resist my hero's ethical rhetoric. Listen:

"I believe in individual responsibility, free will, and the rule of reason. There is a point beyond which I will not go, and that is anything my conscience tells me is ''malum in se'' (wrong in and of itself) or my judgement tells me is irrational. I have no problem with doing something that is ''malum prohibittum'' (wrong only because of the existence of a law prohibiting it)."

Liddy goes on to give as an example of ''malum in se'', the sexual assault of a child. As an example of ''malum prohibitum'', he points us to the law prohibiting one from driving through a stop-sign without coming to a complete halt. Liddy also points out that minor problems require and justify extreme solutions. This is Dr. LaVey's balance factor brought into the realm of ethical conduct and justice. The 1aw of the jungle" is in every point an embodiment of this philosophy.

Liddy's personal set of ethics points us to the sociopolitical issues of today. While the law books get fatter and fatter, filled with rules designed to enslave our very minds, Liddy is a symbol of man at his free-est. Afree mind knows which laws are an obstacle to his life, and obeys the ones which, when broken, have undesireable (''sic'') consequences. A great majority of today's written laws are undermining natural law. Today's laws are all too often the breeders of the new mediocrity, the bedfellows of stagnation and fear.

One thing admire about Liddy's story is his inability to make friends with stupidity. At times during his stay in the FBI and the Department of the Treasury, he would find himself being given irrational or unwise orders from his superiors. In true Satanic fashion, Liddy allows his superiors' stupidity to be unveiled by carrying out his orders TO THE LETTER, causing one FBI Special Agent to always follow his more outlandish rhetorical suggestions with the exclamation, "That's a Liddy! That's a Liddy!"

The continuing objective of Satanism is mastery, and Liddy masters every situation life throws at him. From his childhood mission to eradicate fear to his stay in prison, Liddy remains on top. The prison sections of ''Will'' are, for my money, the most inspiring and remarkable. When I stop to imagine myself in that situation of being put into a world where so much control is snatched from one's life, it fills with trepidation. Liddy's description of prison life is so vivid it requires no effort to imagine yourself there with him in a human zoo.

Liddy proceeds to do the seemingly impossible from within his confinement. Due to the years of experience he'd had in many areas (and due to simple "brains, brawn and ball" Liddy was able to dominate prisoners and guards alike, accepting his prison term as a new challenge and exercise for his endlessly developing willpower. Inmates soon became dependant (''sic'') on Liddy's legal advice and assistance wardens and guards soon became aware that this was a man who would do whatever was within his reach. Liddy could even conduct intelligence operations against his emprisoners. Even a wiretap was within his capabilities.

In a fashion not unlike Wolf Larsen in Jack London's book, ''The Sea Wolf'', Liddy continually delights in battle and conflict, revelling in carnal power. When he finds himself threatened with a promise of nocturnal attack in his prison bed, he arms himself and confidently refuses protection from the guards--one of whom had once been a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. The Hungarian was unable to understand Liddy's refusal of protection in the prison hosptal (''sic'').

"I put it to him this way: 'If I run now, where do I stop? You of all people should understand the results of weakness.'

'But it's different what happened in Hungary. That was between whole countries!'

'The principle is the same.'

'Please...you may die.'

'I don't want your protection. I can protect myself better I than you can. If I die I won't be alone,' I showed the guard my weapons. I was smiling.

'You enjoy this!' 'Yes.'

'It's true what they say. You're a fascist!' "

This remarkable book serves an immensely valuable purpose. How many times, when discussing the Satanic philosophy have I been inundated with the whining crosseyed statement, 'Well, that SOUNDS really logical, but it can't work in real life." Well, since a real live Satanist, standing right in front of their face, never seems to be enough evidence to convince them, maybe I'll just start handing them a copy of ''Will''. Then again, maybe they STILL, won't believe it. "He couldn't have done all those things." Wanna bet?

When you read 'Will and see for yourself all the Satanic reference points shining forth, you may also be struck by \ the wayin which Satanism and Americanism can go so comfortably hand-in-hand. After all, is not individual liberty an underlying concept of both the U.S. Constitution and ''The Satanic Bible''? Ours is not really a POLITICAL movement but it's the politics of weak and strong. right and wrong, blood versus water, and iron versus plastic that we rally on about. Our myriad agenda includes conquests seen and unseen, national and international--and yet the real battles are fought closest to home.

Within one's own heart the hardest battleground is kept. Close to your heart you'll find your genuine passions. Like a buried treasure they remain, waiting to be uncovered by the freedom and liberation of Satanic thought. Therein you will find your greatest virtues, strengths, and yes, fears, and weaknesses, points of pain... That is Satanic self-awareness.

True self-awareness is a vital skill. We must be able to evaluate ourselves honestly and not pump ourselves up with denial of our weaknesses. Find what's ''REALLY'' there. The true you. A genuine weakness (recognized and identified) is worth a million FALSE STRENGTHS. A million false hopes will never deliver you to a better life.

There is the greatest lesson to learn from dear Liddy. To conquer his weaknesses he did not deny their existence, he CHALLENGED their domination of him. Therein lies the rub: face the reality of who you are and you're on the road to being able to become the person you've always wanted to be better than the devil you don't.

ARMA VIRUMQUE CANO!

HAIL LIDDY!

HAIL SATAN!

==The Magic of the Will==
by Jeffrey Deboo

THE INDIVIDUAL HUMAN WILL is the central focus of the Satanic philosophy. The will (or the soul, or the self, or whatever you choose to call it) is the one true miracle -- the unique free agent in a universe which Newton and his successors have shown to be essentially a vast deterministic mechanism, It is the prime mover, the rebel angel in the infinity of perfect order, the unforeseeable factor that derails the pre-set sequence of cause-and-effect relationships. You use your brain to think, just as you use your legs to walk; in both cases equally, the "you" that does the using is ultimately your will. The will alone is free.

I know, of course, of the school of thought which holds that even our mental processes are actually deterministic and that free will is an illusion, but I think I can safely assume that no reader of this publication adheres to that view. Toe existence of the free-willed self is easily granted by any truly aware observer, since the said observer is, by definition, himself an example of the phenomenon whose existence is being questioned. Indeed, your possession of free will is the only fact which you can claim to know with absolute certainty, since it is the only thing you know directly, rather than through the mediation of the senses.

This much has been clear to perceptive thinkers for millenia; the more interesting issue, however, is the nature of the relationship between the will and the material world. It is in this relationship that we must seek the key to understanding that class of phenomena (supernormal, but not supernatural) which we choose to call "magic."

Take a simple volitional act, such as raising one's arm.

How does this happen? Muscles contract. They do so in response to electrical and chemical impulses traveling along the motor neurons. These signals, in turn, are triggered by electrochemical activity in certain parts of the brain. A chain of causes and effects, events operating according to the normal laws of physics and chemistry.

Since this is a volitional act, the original activity within the brain must ultimately be caused by the will. But since the will is neither deterministic nor truly random, it cannot be matter or energy (both of which operate according to deterministic laws modified by random effects at the quantum level). We can account for what happens only by accepting that the non-material will is able to manipulate the material universe on the microscopic scale within the brain.

This need not even violate any known physical laws, if we assume that the manipulation takes place entirely on the level of subatomic particles and energy quanta. Events on that scale are already known to be non-deterministic; in the absence of consciousness they occur in a purely random manner. Even if one could observe a conscious brain in enough detail, there would probably be no way to tell if a change in the energy state of a particular electron was the result of will or merely a "normal" random event.

There is, of course, nothing supernatural about this.

The nature of the cosmos is such that free will -- a class of phenomena falling outside the scope of deterministic physical law can exist. In the evolution of life, natural selection has exploited this characteristic of the cosmos, just as it has exploited the ability of water to hold dissolved oxygen, and all the other natural phenomena which have been incorporated into the operation of living organisms.

How far down into the animal kingdom free will exists is an interesting question. If human beings have free will, it seems safe to assume that at the very least the higher vertebrates such as mammals, birds, and reptiles have it as well, based on their observed behavior. This is less apparent in the case of fl.sh or insects, and the behavior of one-celled organisms is probably explainable by ordinary deterministic laws -- but until we truly understand the mechanism of the will, who can tell for sure? And yes, in any animal which has free will, the mechanism of it must be the same as in the human being. Toe human mind differs from the minds of the other higher animals only in degree, not in kind.

If the will can influence the material world in one limited way -- manipulating microscopic events within the brain -it is not much of a leap to imagine how under certain conditions it can do so in other ways, on a larger scale. In ceremonial magic, the will brtngs itself into a state of frenzied intensity and purposeful focus.

A man exerts his will under ordinary circumstances: a few electrons jump left instead of right, triggering a series of events which move his arm a millisecond later. He exerts his will in the intensified context of ritual: something else happens. A chance event which would have gone one way goes the other. Someone chooses option A instead of option B. A careless enemy gets a little more careless at a Critical moment. It is a difference in magnitude, not in kind, that makes the one event mundane and the other extraordinary. To put it another way, our will is working a little "magic" every moment of our lives.

==Asimov quote==
All the ways of being wrong about the universe are more consoling than the ways of being right, because unfortunately to be right about the universe is very likely to end up with the decision that the universe doesn't give a damn about us and that a great many things that happen -- if not everything that happens
- is largely random.
—Isaac Asimov

==The Devil, You Say?==
by Nemo

SO YOU'RE A SATANIST. And how many times have you been asked, "But if you don't believe in Satan, why do you call yourself a Satanist?"

And you slowly and carefully explain how Satan means the accuser, the opposite and since we're opposed to the anti-human ideas of the Judeo-Christian...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you explain that using the name Satanist is stimulating in that it does shock other non-satanists and gets their attention so they might listen to what we're trying to say about...(and you hear a snoring sound).

Or you remind them that since we're the ones who call ourselves Satanists, and there is no competition for the title, then we are IT and so...(and then you hear a snoring sound).

Or you point out how it is THEY who have been calling us what we ARE by the name Satanist for centuries, so we just decided to USE THAT FACT for a change... (and then you hear the snoring sound).

Well, folks, the next time you feel as though you're tired of trying to shove a battleship through a keyhole with ideas that are so alien to the mental midget you're talking to, try out this one: I'm a Satanist because Satan is my hero.

"What?" The astonished normal gasps, as he swallows in confused shock. 'The Devil is your HERO?!"

And now you have penetrated the cultural Jello that surrounds your normal inquirer. You have broken through the morass of words that threatened to engulf your explanation. You've hit the mule's head with the baseball bat AND GOT HIS ATTENTION.

It also happens to be true.

Satanists think of Satan as their hero and want to be more like Satan.

No, I didn't say we wanted to DRESS more like Satan and wear bright red satin Halloween suits with little red horns and a plastic forked tail. We want to ACT and THINK the way Satan would if he WERE real and He were US. Right here! Right now!

There exists a fairly well-known prohibitionist ("Down with Demon Rum!" novel entitled ''In His Footsteps'' in which a group of Christians decided to never take any important action, never make any meaningful decisions without first asking themselves, "What would Jesus do?" (Gackkk!)

Well, give it a try but with the proper Satanic inversion. Try going through just ONE DAY with always first asking yourself, 'What would SATAN do?"

Consider the consequences in your thinking and behavior. The telephone rings and some young kid is reading a sales script for some charity. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

The doorbell rings and standing on your doorstep are two nondescript humans holding copies of ''The Watchtower'', WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

You're driving down an almost deserted freeway in the middle lane moving at precisely 55 miles per hour when a broken down pickup truck cuts you off within a cat's whisker of hitting you. WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

I could go on and on but I would suggest that you CAN'T HONES1LY ANSWER THE QUESTION until you really think through in your life what Satanism really means in your practical, day-to-day, moment-to-moment real1Jfe. If your understanding of Satan is that he is a mindless, blood-thirsty super-gorilla who would scream obscenities and threats at the kid on the phone, shove ''The Watchtower'' up
the evangelists' asses and rear-end with intent-to-kill the redneck trucker who cut you off, if this is what you think Satan is like, then I'd suggest you're dead wrong (or maybe just plain DEAD very soon!).

Satan is portrayed in many guises by many authors and storytellers, but there are a few universal qualities that Satan seems to possess. Here are some that come to mind:

''Pride!'' Satan refused to bowdown to "Almighty God". That is why Satan was thrown out of Heaven! He refused to worship anyone as being his god...except himself! Does this sound familiar? It should!

''Nobility''. Satan is the "King of the World" and the "Prince of Darkness". And what is true of royalty? Implied here is an I
aristocratic bearing or posture. A certain sense of self-containment comes to mind. And perhaps more than even these characteristics, nobility implies courtesy, self-control, and POLITENESS!

''Intelligence''. Satan represents the ultimate in street smarts, of understanding and following the real rules of life and not being caught up in the bullshit which is fed to the sheep to keep them all herded together.

''Action''. Satan isn't some armchair philosopher. Satan DOES things. He's a doer as well as a thinker. After all, he organized the revolt in Heaven, defied God, established Hell and actively rules the earth, right? He is the sponsor of all creative human productions from good music and food to civilization itself.

''Humor''. The Devil laughs. He is the trickster who enjoys exposing the foibles and hypocrisy of humans, gods and devils. He flings open the closed doors of rigid belief systems and reveals the prigs within. He can laugh at himself as easily as he laughs at others. He has perspective.

There may be (and probably are) other important attributes to Satan's character, yet there is another version of the Devil which is often confused with Satan. This is the Devil who hates human beings and enjoys nothing more than sadistic torture and mindless, wanton destruction.

This is the ignorant, lower-class version of the Devil which is c1ung to by the degenerate, the stupid and illiterate.

This idiot Devil is the propaganda Devil of the Christians. They first saw Satan as a powerful adversary to their God but this proved too successful in that the average peasant was terrified. Consequently, Satan was ridiculed and made less ferocious with folk tales. In so many of these stories the Devil ends up being tricked and/or beaten up by clever human beings. These efforts to take Satan down to a manageable level removed, one by one, every admirable characteristic, resulting in a "wild man devil" image.

I simply view the idiots who accept this poor-man's Devil as their religious figure as DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. They are just the shadow side of the Christian nonsense.

As opposed to this, we are SATANISTS. The figure of Satan has been explored by Milton. Twain, and other writers through history and this figure is the one we admire. This is Satan and Satan is my hero!

So try it! Get a clear understanding of who Satan really is and put this understanding to use. Go through your day (or night!) and just keep checking:

WHAT WOULD SATAN DO?

Then DO IT!

HAIL SATAN!

==Dalton quote==
Selfish. dishonest, ruthless and destructive persons succeed, and having succeeded, come into control of religion as well as the other instruments of information, propaganda and education. From such positions of power and influence they paint themselves in rosy hues. They transform themselves from unscrupulous, ruthless acquisitors into saintly, selfless paragons. These rosy pictures are the material with which scholars construct history -- a history studded with great men, legendary heroes. As Herny Ford is credited with saying. "History is bunk."

==LESSER IS MORE==
by Max

"LESSER MAGIC: THE ART OF TRICKS and chicanery to help the magician reach a successful end." This definition seems to be in common use by a great many would-be satanic magicians who feel that use of conjuring tricks only cheapens what should be magic in its "purist" form. To them, using corny theatrical tricks is the mark of a charlatan and a fraud who could never have communion with the true Prince of Darkness. To these boring little pedants I reveal their true name--''Sucker''.

"What could be so beneficial about vanishing a coin or pulling a rabbit out of a hat?" you ask. What great Satanic lessons are learned? Simply these:

:DESIRE: Toe desire to be "in" on the mechanics of gambling both at the casino and in the "games" that we play to reach the desired goal; to know the "odds" of success of a working and to overcome the stumbling block of a "rigged" game. Toe desire to separate reality from ideal and false imagery from that which lies underneath.

:TIMING: A great magician controls a situation--forcing it to meet his pace. Kn.owing that the correct movement at the rtght time creates the miracle, be it picking cards out of the air or being at the right place to obtain a desired job.

:IMAGERY: Best and most important attribute to a successful magician. Toe right props can turn a tedious ritual into a night of wonder and inspiration. For instance: the magician uses flash paper (paper impregnated with flash powder) for the writing of the desires of the participants. When the desire is held over the candle's flame, a bright yellow ball of fire brightens the room. Never can a more inspired roomful of participants be found at that moment. The reasoning is narrow at best which finds this sort of display more appropriate to a roomful of ignorant peasants who believe in miracles than to sophisticated Satanists. Subconsciously. we all demand fascination from our rituals. This fascination primes our magical minds to cause the forces of nature to tum our way. Tedium causes sleep.

Other uses of Lesser Magic for the enterprising Satanist are:

:CLOSEUP MAGIC: This aspect of fooling the spectator by performing a magic trick under his/her nose at a dinner table can "break the ice" and put a stranger at ease. A bartender who knows the value of a few well-turned tricks can increase his or her tip potential and a salesman who has mastered some wondrous sleights will always attract customers to his display. This is also a novel way to present yourself to someone whom you wish to "pick up." rather than grunting "Hello, Good Looking." A warning, though. Keep your tricks to a minimum or you might be mistaken for the in-house entertainment.

:MENTALISM: This aspect of Lesser Magic is most useful to the Satanist who is asked to "do something magi.cal." Toe use of COI.D READING and HELLS1ROMISM allows the Satanist to tell amazing bits of information about anyone whom he is meeting for the first time and can be used to put a scoffer in his or her place. Look how much mileage Sherlock Holmes got from his method! People may even believe you to be psychic and gifted with amazing powers of supernatural sight. You can even deny it afterwards and your "mark" will believe it even more. You will be surprised how much more honest people become when they think you can see into their minds. Toe New Age movement provides a wide area of opportunity for a Satanist who can combine card manipulation with cold reading, as the rows of tarot readers at nearly-weekly psychic fairs can testify. From the few magicians I've seen master this ability, I can tell you that P.T. Barnum was right.

Now that you have seen the benefits of Lesser Magic, I might also warn against a few of the pitfalls.

Keep your repertoire small and skilled. One fascinating trick is worth dozens of trite and sloppy ones.

Know when the situation presents itself (remember timing?) for a sleight. Continuously doing tricks is annoying and can be boring as showing home movies.

Never announce that you are doing tricks. Trained animals do tricks! People want to suspend belief for a brief moment. Let them.
Never tell how a sleight is done. (See above.)

If you use magical effects in a ritual, vary them to maintain the unexpected and keep them to a minimum. One flashy bit of smoke and flame becomes a great ritual. Too many effects transform the ritual into a circus.

Now seek out this occult knowledge and explore it to the fullest and remember--life is an illusion, performed by ,Satanic you!

==Siege ad==
STORM BOOKS is pleased to announce the forthcoming publication of the book "Siege" The collected writings of James Mason (Universal Order), Edited and Introduced by Michael M. Jenkins

The volatile texts contained in this volume were originally published in James Mason's monthly radical underground newsletter "Siege", dating from 1980-1986. They trace his extreme ideology from early years to membership in George Lincoln Rockwell's American Nazi Party at age 14, his increasing militant fanaticism and later re-activation of the much-feared National Socialist Liberation Front, to his final break with the conservative Nazi Movement after declaring Charles Manson as "the greatest living philosopher of revolution in the world today".

SIEGE contains a wealth of original-and truly radical philosophy, revolutionary tactics and strategy, as well as Mason's unique insights into the importance of Charles Manson and the "Family" to survival in the 20th century and beyond. The book is an essential "bible" for all students of political terrorism and crime, National Socialism, the philosophy of Manson and his followers, radical environmentalism, and revolutionary activity of ANY sort. It offers a rare glimpse into the farthest fringes of extremist thought.

This edition will be a professionally printed trade-size paperbound book, illustrated with numerous rare and hard-hitting photographs, graphics, and examples of propaganda. It contains an extensive introduction covering Mason's life and career, utilizing many excerpts from exclusive and candid unpublished interviews. Appendices are included on Rockwell, Joseph Tommasi and the original N.S.L.F., mass murderers, plus original writings by Charles Manson and Universal Order representatives.

This powerful book will be available in late summer/early fall of 1991.

Please notify us of your interest and you will be sent information on how to order the book once it is available. Distribution and wholesale inquiries are welcome.

==The Eternal Troubadour Speaks==
Tiny Tim Walks Down Memory Lane With Boyd Rice

WHEN ANTON LAVEY INCLUDED TINY TIM on the dedication page of The Satanic Rituals back in '72, many assumed he was simply being perverse. He wasn't. Like the others on that page (George Bernard Shaw, Richard Wagner, and so on), Tim is a rugged individualist, a purist tenaciously pursuing his own unique vision against all odds.

According to LaVey, Tim is the ultimate Satanic performer.

Never mind the fact that Tiny is staunchly Christian; he's playing the Devil's music. It's romantic, sentimental, and it stirs the emotions.

Had someone wandered into one of Tiny Tim's Denver shows by accident. they might well have thought they'd happened into some sort of crazed revival meeting. And indeed it was a revival meeting: Tiny Tim was reviving some of the best tun s of the century. with a special emphasis on the music dating from 1905 through the Twenties and 1hirties. Everyone's been exposed to Tiny's 1968 hit '"Tiptoe through the Tulips," but few are aware of the full extent of his talents.

Besides being a musical/cultural ecologist committed to preserving a unique and rapidly vanishing slice of the American past, Tiny is also a showman par excellence. When performing, Tiny claims, he at times feels as though he is in direct contact with the spirits of history's great personalities -- and it sometimes seems as though their voices are emanating from his mouth. Those who witnessed Tiny's Denver shows would find it difficult to take issue with such an idea, for at times it was hard to tell who was in a greater trance state, Tim or his audience. On all three nights, at ''every'' show, the audience was literally whipped into a frenzy.

Many who came to see Tiny perform at Ruby had no idea what to expect, and it's safe to say that what they ''got'' was probably the surprise of their lives. Instead of an evening spent giggling at some campy pop icon, they were transported into another world. For an hour or so, Ruby was transformed into an alternate universe; we, the audience, became the special guests in Tiny Tim's world. Who would have believed it: an entire room full of jaded hipsters clapping in time to "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy," while at the rear of the club a handful of young beauties leapt to their feet and began doing frenzied go-go dances. It was a wild, Wild time, and nobody wanted it to end.

The following interview with Tiny Tim was conducted on June 6 and 8 (before his first show and after his last show).

'''Tiny Tim''': I'm talking to the wonderful Mr. Boyd here in beautiful Denver on June 6th, 1991, and right now Denver time is 5:30 p.m.

'''Boyd Rice''': Some of the greatest influences you've had on the public consciousness have been with some of the more offbeat things you've done. and that's what made the biggest impact back in '68. That's what they were cognizant of then, and that's what 99.9 percent of the people remember still. But there's this whole other spectrum of stuff that you do that hasn't really been picked up on.

'''T.T.''': Yes and the tapes are available from an Australian fellow named Martin Sharpe. He's put out several records by me down there. has nine mansions he lives in and has one whole room set aside as a Tiny Tim shrine/archive. He has movie footage of me and is going to release a Tiny Tim movie sometime or other.

'''Boyd''': I've always wanted to see your first movie. ''You Are What You Eat'' What was that about, and who has the rights to it now? It seems a perfect item for the video market.

'''T.T.''': You know, I don't know what ever became of that. We did that back in... [at this moment, a bizarre Tim admirer interrupts the conversation, demanding, of all things, an autograph inscribed with the quote from Dante's Inferno: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here." Tiny has no idea what the guy is getting at, and chaos reigns for the next several minutes, as the fan attempts to clarify his strange request.]

'''Boyd''': I know that even when you first became famous, you, had already collected thousands of old 78's.

'''T.T.''': Oh, they were great songs! Going back to Edison's day. the 1900's, the days when they had one-sided 78's, from 1902 to 1909. Back in 1904, the phonograph was a mysterious instrument in the home. There was no electric, no plug-ins. They were just coming in with electric lights, and mostly there was candlelight. In 1905, 78's were sold in furniture stores. Vaudeville and sheet music were the giant things. Toe phonograph was a novelty. To hear a voice come out of a horn with a little arm and a pin needle was a magnificent miracle. In the time period of 1905, when the average salary was three to ten dollars a week and a John MacCormack record sold for a dollar twenty-five -- that was a lot of money to pay for one side. A Billy Murray was every bit as big as Mr. Sinatra, or Mr. Presley, or Mr. Crosby. In those days, when you purchased a record, you wanted to hear it first, because it was such a big investment. Billy Murray was so popular that people bought his records without listening to them first.

The most popular ballad singer before electric came in was Heruy Burr. He did a song called "Mother" and was every mother's favorite singer (at this point Tiny cups his hands around his mouth and belts out the lyrics to "Mother": "M is for the million things she gave me...", etc.). Another song he made famous during World War I was (Tiny picks up his ukelele [''sic'' throughout] and starts plucking away): "Just a baby's prayer at twilight/When lights are low/And baby is filled with tears/ There's a mother there at twilight, who's sad to know/Her precious little tot is dad's forget-me-not/After saying goodnight mama, she climbs the stairs, so unawares and says her prayers/Oh won't you tell my daddy, that he must take care/That's a baby's prayer at Twilight/For her daddy over there."

'''Boyd''': When did you first start singing?

'''T.T.''': Oh, I've been singing since the thirties. Well, since I was a kid. The '30s, '40s, '50s. Down memory lane....

'''Boyd''': When did you take up the ukelele?

'''T.T.''': That was '54. I learned through a book called ''You Too Can Learn To Play the Ukelele'' by Don Ball and Arthur Kinds. This ukelele rm playing now is a real good one; it's a Martin. It's 50 years old. It's put together really good; hopefully it will last another day You know the most popular ukelele record in this country in the Twenties was Cliff Edwards' "Ukelele Ike"? Arthur Godfrey revived it in the '50s, but "Ukelele Ike" in the '20s and Cliff Edwards was the greatest popular name associated with the ukelele in the early part of the century. They could really play then!

'''Boyd''': Did you ever meet any of these people, like Nick Lucas or...

'''T.T.''': Sure. Met him. He did "Tiptoe through the Tulips" earlier. Nick Lucas originally sang "Tiptoe through the Tulips" in 1929 for the "Golddiggers of Broadway," one of the early technicolor sound movies. Nick Lucas was one of the first people in 1920 to popularize the acoustic guitar. Before the '20s it was not chic to play it in bands, but he popularized it, and later on he had the Nick Lucas ukelele pick.

Another song he made famous was this one. (Tiny picks up his ukelele and plays "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine"). That was the backside of 'Tiptoe through the Tulips." It was a #8 hit in 1930, and 'Tiptoe" was a #1 hit in February of 1930. Nick Lucas was, in 1928, the #3 star in the country. # 1 was Rudy Vallee, #2 was Gene Austen, and #3 was Nick Lucas.

'''Boyd''': These old songs/ are so amazing, yetyou also throwing some rock and roll.

'''T.T.''': Usually, when I'm being booked, these agents will tell them, "He does some rock and roll too," thinking that will get the booking. I always tell them it's "Down Memory Lane," but what I do usually depends on the venue. But if feel the spirits of these great artists, from Crosby to Jolson to Mel Baker to Henry Burr - great stars of the past -- if I sell these songs through the microphone, if I get a little spirit of their great voices, then it can change a night. Because these singers really sold a song. You see, tonight was a very interesting night. The other night I had to struggle more. It an depends on how the voice goes. But if I can get the spirits to sell the songs, then I can do anything. These songs were sung by great artists who were lost in the transition period between non-electric music in the '10s and '19s and electric ' music in the '20s. Stars like Billy Murray, from this city, who was called the 'Denver Nightingale." From 1904 to 1919 he was America's greatest popular singer for Victor and Columbia records. It's a shame there's no statue of Billy Murray in this city. People like him were as huge in their day, as say, Elvis or the Beatles.

'''Boyd''': And now they're forgotten.

'''T.T.''': And now they're forgotten.

'''Boyd''': That's why I refer to you as a musical ecologist. You're helping to preserve this stuff. Through you it lives.

'''T.T.''': Thank you very much, Mr. Boyd. I'm sure trying. I love these old songs.

'''Boyd''': Me too. What worries me is that there's probably only a handful of people who really remember this stuff, and un∑ less definite steps are taken to call it back from limbo, from oblivion, it'll eventually be lost forever. Do it bother you to think that all this could just vanish into thin air, and we'll never be able to hear it again?

'''T.T.''': [Waves his hand dismissively.] No, no, no, no. I'm not worried about that at all. We11 have plenty of opportunities to hear all of it again -- in the afterlife.

==NAZIISM, RACISM, and SATANISM==
by Jeffrey Deboo
t/ !IN SOME OCCULT CIRCLES it has become fashionable to
f' c,cpress a certain affinity with Naziism, and even to look
∑ pon it as a kindred ideology. How valid is this?
ï., Satanists whofeel this waywould be well served by
/. rreac:Ung MeJn Kampf. Hitler recognized that the masses are j,:,,heeplike -- but rather than deploring this, he applauded it,
glorifying conformity, obedience, group identity, and self-
;;: sacrifice. He condemned individualism, attrtbuting it to the contamination of the German "race" by "inferior'' races:

This self-sacri.6.cing will to give one's personal labor and ifnecessaiy one's ownlife for others is most strongly developed in the Aryan...Not in his intellectual gifts lies the source of the Aryan's capacity for creating and building culture. Ifhe had just this alone, he could only act destructively, in no case could he organize; for the innermost essence of all organi7ation re'quireS that the individual renounce putting foxward his personal opinion and interests and sacrifice both in favor of a larger group. (p. 297)ï

In so far as they directed foreign blood into our national f>ody... they contributed to that catastrophic splintering of our inner being which is expressed in German super-individualism -- a phenomenon, I am sony to say, which is praised in many quarters. (p. 390)

'This co-existence of unblended racial elements of the most vaiying kind accounts for what is termed hyperindividualism in Germany. In peaceful periods it may sometimes do good services, but taking all things together, it has robbed us of world domination. If the German people in its historic development had possessed that herd unity which other peoples enjOyed, the German Reich today would doubtless be mistress of the globe. (p. 396)

Take another look at some of those old German Nazi rally films. Tiy to see past the quasi-occult symbols and sharp black uniforms and observe what is really being depicted. Great regimented masses of men, standing or marching in rigid formation. No individuality, no questioning, no thought permitted. And the jackbooted pontiff whose mesmerizing voice holds his flock in his thrall? No La Vey
.∑., challenging each man to live for himself and take his own
;.,rt Vital existence as his highest goal, but rather a tyrant
∑ demanding blind obedience and self-sacrifice for the good of

the mass -- a pied piper using his followers' unreason and self-deceit to lead them down the road to catastrophe.

Then there is the whole "race" business. Racism is a belief system which allows any person belonging to the "higher" race, no matter how stupid, lazy, or incompetent he may be, to feel somehow superior to any person of a 'lower" race, no matter how clever, productive, or talented. What kind of person feels the need for such a belief system? Obviously one who has nothing to take pride in as an individual, and who must clutch at a group identity as a source of self-esteem and worth. Indeed Hitler's first followers, his Brownshirts, were recruited from the trash of Germany, the failures and brawlers of the streets who resented the creative and successful people in their own society. The pathetic self-styled Nazis in America today are mostly the same kind of people.

Tue Nazis also preached eugenics, wherein some find an echo of the Satanist emphasis on natural selection and the survival of the fittest. There is, however, an important difference. Natural selection means that there is continuous competition between organismS, in which the fittest, because they are the fittest, are more likely to survive, and the unfit, because of their innate inferiority, are less likely to survive. Thus the species is continuously improved. There is no overall control or guidance of the process by any conscious power. This is how life evolved from the earliest primitive forms, billions of years ago, to the sophisticated organisms which exist today.

Part of the reason we Judge Christianity to be "evil" is that it negates natural selection by imposing upon the strong an obligation to help the weak. We believe superior individuals should use their talents for their own benefit and not wony about inferior individuals. This is basic Satanist thinking.

Both medieval Christianity and German Naziism were also "evil" in that. as conformist ideologies, they systematically murdered anyone who dared oppose the established order of things in the societies they ruled. Thus the most creative and independent minds (the truly superior individuals) in medieval Europe and Nazi Germany were killed or forced to flee. These ideologies reversed natural selection; they preserved the obedient conformists and destroyed the individualists. Before the Nazis, Germany had for generations produced many of the world's greatest figures in philosophy, literature. music, and science. Naziism was a revolt of the street trash which wiped out or drove away most of the country's true elite. Germany still has not really recovered from this; it has never regained the leading role in intellectual fields which it held before the Nazis.

And, of course, if anything resembling real modem Satanism had ever appeared in Nazi Germany, the regime would immediately have hied to stamp it out.

Eugenics is not the same as natural selection. Eugenics
means that some authority is selecting for the qualities which that authority considers superior. We all must trust this authority with the awesome power to choose which qualities should be favored and which should be eliminated

concerning the Church of Satan. They instituted a thorough
badly-typed, poorly-written and many-times-photocopied
arldouts advocating a boycott of their many products
(including Ivory Soap, Mr. Clean and Clearasil - gasp! -- the

-- as cattle meekly submit to being selectively bred by the
herdsman (this is supposed to be compatible with Satanism?). Such power would end up behlg abused to select in favor of charactertstics which merely conform to the prejudices of the group in charge, but which have nothmg to do with real superiority (this is what the Nazis did). Natural selection by itself has done fine without conscious guidance for four billion years, and should be allowed to go on domg so.

Nazis advocate killing off or sterilizing entire categories of people. Satanists believe everyone should have the chance to survive, or fail to survive, by their own efforts. Toe flt would prove their fitness by surviving. Toe unfit would prove their unfitness by failing to survive. Only thus could we truly tell which are which.

Racism is antithetical both to natural selection and to real eugenics. Toe so-called Nazi "eugenics" used superficial charactertstics such as hair and eye color, and ethnic background, as its Criteria of superiority. This was not eugenics; this was idiocy.

All races include both inferior and superior persons, both sheeple and individualists. A Satanist judges each human being to be superior or inferior on the basis of individual qualities, not skin color or eyelid shape.

I have known and worked with people of a great variety of races. I know from personal experience that race is not correlated with talent or personality type, or at least not strongly correlated enough for it to be noticeable.

Racism has been an excuse for more stupid herd behavior than anything else in history besides Chrtstlanity and Marxism. Racist groups such as the U.S. Nazi Party and the present Ku Klux Klan have tried to form alliances with the Church of Satan at various times, but Dr. LaVey has always rejected them with contempt.ïï In dohlg so, he was defendmg the integrity of the Satanic philosophy.

A herd ideology does not stop being a herd ideology merely because it happens not to be in power. Nazi.ism is not Satanic. Racism is not Satanic. Anti-8emitlsm is not Satanic. These concepts are as pathetic, outmoded, and collectivist as Chrtstlanity itself. Any acceptance of, or compromise with, them will derail the Satanist movement into the junkyard of failed ideas and missed opportunities.

==Sparks -What's Going on Out There==
by Peggy Nadramia

ISSUE #611, DA1ED 8/22/91 of RollingStonecontaJnsa
cover story on Arnold Schwarzenegger that no Satanist
could resist. RSoften contains some first-class articles l,
(chiefly the blistering satirical pieces by P.J. O'Rourke) r
despite their liberal scum foundations. And you can't help
liking Arnie -- not an actor, but an old-fashioned Movie Star I
who plays characters of Olympian proportions with a genuineness lacking in other "Big Guys" like Sylvester Stallone.
Toe author, Bill Zehme, keeps his tongue firmly planted
in his cheek, poking gentle fun at Schwarzenegger's
on-screen persona while nevertheless revealhlg the Satanic qualities he embodies for the '90s: he is a man of action,
identity, and will. ''Real tough people," he says, may feel 'r
pain, "but then they swallow and say, 'To Hell with it!' " Director John Milius, one of contemporary Hollywood's most Satanic filmmakers, promoting values of struggle and survival, says of Arnold, "[He is) the embodiment of the Superior Man...the Nietzschean man." Schwarzenegger is the ideal icon for a society content. in the words of Olivia Newton John's pophit, to '1et someone else be strong."

Back in the early '80s, a co-worker came to my desk with a 200th generation photocopy of the now-infamous warning about Procter & Gamble supporting the Church of Satan. She was passing them out to everyone in the office and thought I might be interested. I looked the flier over very calmly and thanked her. As a Satanist. I knew that cute li1 Man in the Moon was not "the symbol of the Church of Satan," but I kept mum. ,
By now everyone knows this wasthe beginning of one of
those "urban legends" Dr. Jan Harold Brunvand has written about in The Choking Doberman and other titles. P&G iS not affiliated with the Church of Satan; the Man in the Moon iS not an occult symbol of any kind. And the company's president never appeared on any 1V talk show to say he was a Satanist or even a Chrtstian. It's all a big story, a fairy tale,

In a report entitled "Procter & Gamble's Satanic Shadow," Lynne M. Miles details the history of the company and includes a flier printed by P&G giving an overview of the
various trademarks they have used since 1851. Interesttng!Y 1 enough, their second trademark, hastily daubed in black paint on the outside of crates, was a five-pointed star in a
circle, merely, says P&G, "part of the rivermen's sign n
language." The symbol quickly evolved into many stars. thell I
finally the moon and stars in a circle.
Procter & Gamble were not amused by this false rumor

very fabric of American life!). As of August 1990, P&G has
successfullY filed a dozen lawsuits against those spreading these rumors. Among them area minister and three Amway cUstrtbutors. Amway reps sell household products (llite soap, detergents and pharmaceuticals) in a door-to-door system
stmflar to Avon's. In fact. the lady who gave me that flier all
those years ago sold Amway. P&G plans to continue using their Man in the Moon.

Christian media personality Bob Larson has appeared on major 1V talk shows like Donahue ancl Madon Downey, Jr. and has a weekday radio talk show called Tulk Back, syndicated nationwide on many Chrtstian networks. Bob has a thing forSatanists, andloves to read aloud from the pages of The Satantc Bible and other Satanic literature. A Conner musician, and nownovelist (Dead Air. a typical "evil cultists" horror novel), Bob has quite a flair for the dramatic. Recent guests on Talk Back have included Blanche Barton, Boyd Rice, Peter H. Gilmore and Nemo. Larson's favorite tactic iS to elicit hard-line Satanic doctrine from program participants (statements like: 'We don't care what happens to drug addicts,'1 and then gasp, repeating the statements slowly, as if in utter shock:
"You... don't...care...what...happens..." etc. Call-inS are frequent, most of them supporting the participating Satanists. Listen regularly if you want to catch some amusing banter, or add some yourself.

==Canis Familianis==

My fingers smooth the black fur around your
depthless brown eyes, your pricked and perfect ears.
You flick your tongue to taste my skin.
I smile at this benediction.
Why do I feel so honored by your canine regard?

I've seen you at the hunt; myheart has leapt with the beauty of your movements.
You sink to your haunches in the grass,
perfectly still, perfectly focused, invisible. When the prey Js close enough to capture, you boil with movement, a streak of black, white teeth flashing.
You kill the squirrel quickly, although mercy Js not what you feel.
Then you hold it in your paws, slowly lick it, Carefully, sweetly, a nurturing movement, Predator and prey in a beautiful, final communion.
You taste the fresh meat, bwy the rest for a day of possible hunger.

They tell me dogs want to be free.
But you belong wherever I am, and I know that's where you want to be.
The earliest cave paintings of primitive Man
show the wolfish outlines of dogs by his side. Partners in the hunt; protectors at the fireside. Once we were the same,
predators who lived in packs.
The fittest survived, the ablest brought forth young, strengthening and ennobling our blood. I see the Satan in you every moment.
even when you sleep
in utter peace and relaxation.
So why shouldn't your simple regard
Mean more to me than a thousand human greetings?
Hail, to you who neither need
nor want such accolade,
Hail, child of my heart

The book also takes itself deadly seriously With sub-chapter headmgs like 'Toe Mystical Side of Lee Marvin," and ''Peter Sellers' Guidance From the Spirit World." Toe strong pomt of this volume is the fact that the editors were well-informed enough to know they could not complete it Without a sizeable contribution from and reference to Anton Szandor LaVey, the foremost authority on supernatural legends and strange occurrences pertaining to Hollywood, as well as to many other locales. There are lengthy quotes from LaVey as he gives his viewpomt on the portrayal of Satan and thmgs Satanic m present-day film projects, and the Jayne Mansfield story is told, as it rarely is, at length and

collection of photos accomplishes, is to pomt out the recurrmg types we see every day.

analysis of the moviegoing experience m his Preface, and the l definition is quite magical: "Your ticket admitted you mtoa grotto-like world m which your anonymity was perfectly protected by the gentle enveloping darkness, though you
were not alone by any means. From the moment you took your seat, you added your one unit of energy to the total electricity being generated by that mystical composite creature called an audience. And m return, its total energy flowed through you. In the same sense that the movie was
larger than life, your reactions to it were also larger than life;
for your laughter, your sympathy or your tears merged with the same reaction of every other member of the audience, and came back to you, magnified a hundred-fold."

Here's a lighthearted article to tlckle your Satanic fancy. The author describes, in a very entertaining style, the recent discovery- of a previously unnoticed behavior pattern among the primates. This pattern was first noticed among the baboons and chimps, but also seems to be rampant throughout the rest of the order. The only species free of this pattern seems to be the mindless lemurs.

This behavior is desClibed as tactical deception, to be distinguiShed from the ordiruuy sort of deception, such as

Tactical deception is the out-and-out tricke:ry used to get what one wants, usually by fooling the members of one's own species, rather than other Clitters. The use of this tactical deception seems to be directly linked to brain size.

THE TRUTH ABOUT SELF-PROTECTION by Massad
Ayoob. (Bantam, New York, 1983; ISBN 0-553-19519-0.) Guest Reviewer: Nemo.

For quite some time I had intended to write a long article on "Satanic self-defense," to share what works and what doesn't work with other members of the left hand path. I feel qualified in this area with twenty years of training in and teaching of martial arts both civilian and milita:ry. I was just about ready to sit down and tackle this project when I ran across this particular paperback book at a gun show.
Now I wish to simply suggest that eve:ry single one of you should buy, read and study this book ve:ry carefully. It says it all and it says it intelligently.

It is hard to be familiar with firearms in the United States and not run across Massad Ayoob. Called a '1aw enforcement guru" by Soldier of Fortune magazine, Ayoob has published more than a thousand articles in numerous
publications from Black Belt magazine to Combat Handgzms magazine. He draws upon his twelve years as a policeman including over twenty armed encounters to back up his written work. When Massad Ayoob speaks. we should listen.

Well, I knew all of that but what really surprised me in this encyclopedic approach to complete self-defense was just where Ayoob learned his stuff. Back in Chicago he must

in the modern human jungle, the books goes on to cover (and I do mean cover!) passive safety measures (such as alarm systems, attack dogs, locks, cars, telephones) followed by an in-depth analysis of countervailing force (such as effective streetfightlng techniques, non-weapon weapons, chemical sprays, shotguns, rifles and handguns). The book is concluded by examining howto survive the legal ramifications of defending yourself.

For the Satanist this last issue is even more important than it is for the average person. If you just finished trashlng some scumbag who tried to mug you, you better (as one of my better teachers put it) "know you're going downtown." In other words, you had better be prepared for the realistic possibility that you will betaken into custody by the police, that a Grand Ju:ry will examine the details of your defense and they will decide whether or not you will betried for a crime. Not long ago I spoke to one dedicated Satanist who told me that ifhe hadtoshoot some mugger, he would simply "slip into the night." I asked him if he was depending on all the witnesses to be deaf and blind as he blasted the mugger with his Ruger Sp-101 .357 Magnum. I asked Wm lf
maybe he was depending upon the immense mume flash to cause the blindness and the roar of the explostons to cause 1
the deafness. I also asked him what he intended to do if he was caught trying to escape, despite his intentions, by some sighted and still hearing cop.

Be prepared for the aftermath of any such altercation.

Ayoob discusses the importance of not having to explain to a ,. court why you used an illegal weapon (such as a derrtnger which fires a 310 shotgun shell, classed now by the State of California as a sawed-off shotgun) when you could have
used a more acceptable, conventional weapon. There is a time for principles and there is a time for CYA If you can legally obtain a concealed weapons permit, then you don't have to explain to the Grand Ju:ry why you were carrying a Smith & Wesson .38 Special Airweight Bodyguard at the time. It doesn't matter that you may think it morally wrong

weapon should you carry? Ayoob recommends that you cany what the police carry: a big, black, metal flashlight (such as a 4 D-cell Kel-Ute). Leave your steel spring whips, nunchakas (numb-chucks?) and "ninjl fighting stars" in the toy chest where they belong. Car:ry "Lucifer's Hammer" and understand why the police have to be ve:ry, ve:ry careful when using it as a steel "super-baton."If you find yourself without a weapon (shame! shame!) you can benefit directly from the head twist takedown originally taught by Count Dante and now seen in cinemas across the land in films starling Steven Seagal.

There is nothing new under the sun, but applying what is lmown can spell the difference between life or death, and freedom or prison. If this makes sense to you, as it does to me, get and read this book. It is definitely five stars.

THE GOD-EATER by Aleister Crowley. Directed for the
stage by Scott Stets, Bristol Community College, Fall River, Massachusetts, March, 1991. Guest reviewer: Scott Stets.

Directed by Bristol Community College Music Club President and Church of Satan member Scott Stets, the play delves into the drawbacks and reoccurrences of blind faith In world histo:ry.
This production of The God-Eater is set in the year
1999 and takes place in a ritual chamber somewhere, hidd_en from a post-nuclear society. Even after the modem world has been practically destroyed by blind faith in the world's leaders, both political and religious, the gullible still try to satisfy their "gods" by offering other willing believers as human sacrtflces.

In the actual script of 'Jhe God-Eater. the author wrote a few paragraphs on what the play meant to him:

The idea of this obscure and fantastic play is as follows:

"By a glorious act human mise:ry is secured (History of Christianity). Hence, appreciation of the personality of Jesus is no cuse for being a Christian. Inversely, by a vile and

Anger's film Lucifer Rising and owns Boleskine House, the
Beast's one-time Highland home).
:Upcoming projects by Mr. Stets are undecided at this time. He is just beginning serious work on a stage play based on H.P. Lovecraft's 'The Shadow Over lnnsmouth" that should be completed by late summer 1991. He is considering various manusClipts for his next production and welcomes any and all submissions of prospective plays and/or operas (classical, rock or otherwise). Anyone interested in spectating, auditioning for or submitting manusCiipts for upcoming productions may contact: Scott Stets, 2009 Pleasant Street, Fall River, MA 02723.

THE TEMPLE AND THE LODGE by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh. (Arcade Publishing, New York, 1989; 306 pages, includes maps and photographs, ISBN 1-55970
-021-1, $22.95, hardcover.) Guest Reviewer: Peter Luger.
:If you've been following the tracingS ofreal Satanism through histo:ry that have been presented in our pages, this volume will delight you as a welcome addition to the scant number of books that reveal the real underground. The authors provide an exhaustive survey that reads like a myste:ry as they search for clues in abandoned Scottish cemeteries, to trace the survivors of the order of the Knights Templar, who fled to Scotland to escape the massacre begun by Philippe le Bel. Also examined is their continued
presence as an underground intellectual and economic force which lead to the formation of the foundations of the Freemasons, and eventually set the stage for the revolution that gave birth to the United States, the ideal embodiment of a ''Masonic Republic."
These folk have previously brought us more speculative
material in such works as 1he Holy Blood and the Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy, but here their case is made with logic and evidence that are highly persuasive. This is truly a fascinating read and a milestone tracing a real Satanic legacy of which we can all be proud.

ustening to this record brings back a time when music
was a tool to lift man's spirit, to inspire, to drive: not Simply something to serve as "cruise control" background music for shopping mall ambience. The message is loud and clear:
even those who do not keep up with the so-called ''Manson
mystique" will be intoxicated by the beautiful power behind thiS full length LP. Many who may have heard television tnterviews or seen actual pieces of writing by Manson may
ï have found his words confusing or his ideas hard to understand when voiced in his unique way of speaking which often borders on being stream-of-consciousness. Not so with the songs on this recording. While many of his ideas
are present here, they are expressed in such a clear way as
to be revelations. MuSic is Manson's greatest means of expression, and he himself is aware of this fact. The first song of Side one states, HOW ELSE DO YOU7HJNK I COUI.D TAI.K Wll1l YOU EXCE/TI'THROUGH 'IHE MUSIC? HOW ELSE DO YOU7HINK I COUI.D S'IOP'IHE CONFUSION IN YOURMIND? SO COME ON. AND SING 1HESE SONGS, AS YOU COME ALONG 70 'IHEMUSIC...EACH UNTO HIS OWN

YOU WILL BE DEAD ('This particular phrase was spontaneously uttered by one of the girls as they sang together). One of the most refreshing things about statements like these is that noonecandeny that they aren't rooted in truth...just ask Sharon Tate's mom. And you can be sure they are not being made from some weepy moralistic viewpoint as consistent refrains like, NO WRONG. NO WRONG- COME ALONG..., definitely attest. The acoustic sounds and sweet melodies which emanate here oftentimes convey intense power -- you can feel secure in the
knowledge that these lilting psalms are the most fitting
accompaniment for baptisms of blood and steel.

An evocative version of "Always is Always" sets the mood for side two. nus song iS probably one of the most wellknown as it also appeared on the LIE LP in an a capelJa
version sung by the girls of the "family." The melody is one that plays like a tape loop in your head; but what better way to occupy your mind than the undying words of this masterful philosopher. Here Manson speaks not only from his own mind, but rather from the mind ofan Eternal Soul. transcending present-time and culling the voices of the dead from the past. Not surprising that numerous songs on this release feature lyrics about "rising from the grave" and other

ancestry. Manson is a modem-day heretic, and one sees the thoughts of the most notortous heretics of the past. men like Meister Eckhart and Alfred Rosenberg, resurging once again in Manson's pure vision.

It would be inaccurate to give the impression that these recordings are obsesSive in their references to gloom, doom, death and destruction. While the LP has numerous words about "devil men," "graveyards," and "Satan," here they are not intoned in the morbid manner of born-again Christians. For Manson, wise man that he is, recogmzes the fallacy of any absolute duality in nature. OppoSites exist, but for life to flourish they must operate Side by side, or better yet, hand in hand. Labels such as "good" and "evil" are mere phantasms of the human imagination, and can hardly be applied subjectively (or objectively) to aspects of such
awe-inspiring unknowns like life and death. Everything has its appointed place in the Universal Order, and one who realizes this essential fact will not shun duties bloody or those 'unpleasant' to the weak of spirit. For it is only after the turmoil and total conflagration ofRagnarok that the world is once more reborn into a new order of purity and truth. Such is the way of the eternal rotations of nature, and it is exemplifled in Simple verses in Manson's lyrtcal poetry: 'IHE F1ELDS 'IHEY AREA' GOWEN- 'IHE CYCLE WILL COMPIEJE; IN ORDER 70 HARVEST7HE GRAIN. YOU HAVE 70 curmE WHEAT.

IN PURSUIT OF SATAN. THE POUCE AND TiiE
OCCULT by Robert D. Hicks. (Prometheus Books, Buffalo, NY, 1991; 420 pages, ISBN 87975-604-7, $23.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter Luger.

We have had to suffer through many books recently printed to support the wild ravings of the fundamentalist Christian community and others of their ilk, waiting for the forces of reason and sensibility to slash through the Gordian Knot of twisted ranting. Here at last is a volume that fills the order.
Hicks, a former police officer, is presently a criminal

sentiments like ''Look inSide yourself for your father"-- this is one "family" that communes intimately with the spirits of its

this booklet is written in a style reminiscent of The EDWARD SCISSORHANDS directed by Tim Burton.

contemponuy Satanism-as-conspiracy (a model of crJmina1 behavior which is founded on no hard evidence), from the poor wretches suffering from MPD to the profesSional "Satan Busters" who are making a livelihood off of the promotion of this scam that folklorists are now studying as a new urban legend. Most valuable is his examination of the "cult cops" who are legitimate law enforcement individuals who have let their religious and philosophical beliefs cloud their rational judgment and have thus promoted the existence of this hysteria. Here is an area that has come to reflect the old McCarthy techniques that when unchecked can lead to
many ruined lives.

Hicks provides chapters explaining, in general, alternate religious belief systems in a clear and concise manner. He examines the numerous cases of alleged Satanic child abuse and the still proliferating tales of "cult survivors," particularly covering the scandal surrounding Laurel Wilson (a.k.a.
Lauren Stratford) whose book Satan's Undergrozmd claiming to document a history of unmitigated horror and abuse was nothing but a tissue of lies. 1his exposure was achieved bya Christian publication, CornersfDne, I might add.

All told, this is an important work to bring sorne reason and sanity back into an issue clouded by opportunism and tabloid sensationalism. It will probably not get the attention
that it deserves because it proves that the gruesome ravings are just that.

IILIBERAL EDUCATION - THE POLITICS OF RACE
AND SEX ON CAMPUS by Dinesh D'Souza. ('Ihe Free Press, New York. 1991; 319 pages, ISBN 0-02-908100-9, $19.95,
hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've had anything to do with American universities in recent years, I'm certain that youhave been appalled at the shocking degradation in standards. as well as the quality of the education (whose price has skyrocketed- unless you happen to be of the appropriate minority whose way is being paved through the College), and you might have wondered from whence this downward spiral has arisen. D'Souza here does an extraordinary Job of exposing the forces of egalitarlanism and how they have progressively poisoned the universities of our country. Under the twin banners of "Affirmative Action" and 'Political Correctness," today's educators have created a Situation that mirrors the dysgenics fostered by the reign of Christianity, proving that "Liberal Humanism" is a kissing coustn to the Nazarene
plague. You will be shocked at much of what has been going on, and I guarantee that your blood will boil at the
neo-totalitarian tactics employed to wipe out any vestige of meritocracy that still survives. D'Souza also offers some rational solutions to round off this wonderful expose with

cares about the direction of education.

THE BIG BANG NEVER HAPPENED by Eric Lerner.
(nmes Books, New York, 1991; 466 pages, ISBN ,I
0-8129-1853-3, $21.95, hardcover.) Guest reviewer: Peter H. Gilmore.

If you've grown tired of listening to the continuous irrationalities generated to prop up the ''Big Bang'' theory of
the commencement of the Universe, an idea that has alWays I smacked of theism to me, then here at last is a rational ' alternative that fits the observable facts of existence far f better than this Bang-Crunch silliness. Lerner is a protege of Hannes Alfven, one of the great pioneers of explaining the mechanics of the universe∑via plasma physics, and here he reaffirms his mentor and even goes beyond him with thrilling and ever so plausible explanations for the manner in which our Universe works. Not only does Lerner give us this up-to-date field of con epts, as well as pointing out where work needs to be done to continue to flesh out these systems, but he presents a remarkable survey of cosmology throughout recorded human history, and relates the theories to the dominant religious and political concepts of their time periods. This is an invaluable volume for anyone interested in the nature of the Universe, and it can well function as a basis for home education efforts to remedy the
hidebound materials still prevalent in educational r
institutions. Highly recommended.

We were delighted to receive these two wonderful releases from the dynamic folks at Psychick Release PCP. and these are truly exemplary efforts. The first combination of White Stains "hyperdelic" muSic with the haunting invocations of Psychick TV takes one on a Journey of muSical consciousness trance-formation.

SWEDISH EXOTICA presents a veritable smorgasbord of Swedish bands that will generally be unfamiliar to the American listener. Here's
where you can explore representative cuts from a wide range of some of the best talent on the Swedish scene. Also good for.putting on and quizzing friends who claim to be

SATANIC CINEMA: by Peter H. Gilmore

Fresh off of his portrayal of the_ Satanic vigilante "Batman," Burton turned his viSion to this more intimate depiction of interaction between an outsider and the "normals." This film succeeds as a lovingly crafted Satanic fable about whywe should never try to get along and be part of the herd.

Edward, winningly portrayed by Johnny Depp. is the creation of a scientist who lives in a cartoonishly creepy manse on the hill. His creator, who is shown giving him instructions in culture and civilized behavior, dies before he has the chance to finalize Edward by replacing the sharp blades he has for fingers with genuine human hands.

Vincent Prtce is moving in his cameo role here as the scientist. Edward is of course "rescued" from his isolation by one of the normals who proceeds to try to integrate him into their society of middle class tacky boredom. Edward is finally accepted when his extraordinary talent of being able to cut/sculpt things with his blade hands is revealed, until he is in great demand as a hair-stylist! And, Edward falls in love with a normal young girl, the fetching Winona Ryder, so troubles begin. Burton is not afraid to expose how the normals use someone who is unusual and talented for freak value, until they tire of the uniqueness and think that this outSider is really beginning to intrude on their territory.

Filled with wall-to-wall sumptuous Danny Elfman music, this film is a must-see for all Satanists, especially those with children with whom they can have very profitable discusSions afterwards.

SILENCE OF 1HE LAMBS directed by Jonathan Demme. Adapted from Thomas Harris' well crafted thrtller, the main focus of this epic is the character of Hannibal "the cannibal" Lector. genius serial killer. It is quite revealing that Antony Hopkins' portrayal (in the role of his career) has fascinated moviegoers far more than the struggling young agent Clarice Starling - well acted by Jodie Foster. Lector is an embodiment of the true feral man, whouses his brilliance as well as whatever physical savagery he deems necessary to dispense his personal justice. He is jailed because he wascaptured bya law officer who was empathic with serial killers, a man who, ifhe lethimself go. would be one himself (this is all materlal that is revealed in Harris' previous book Red Dragon.). Lector is the exemplar of the Satanic dictum to "be dangerous, even in defeat" and this ts, reinforced by the depiction of him as an incarcerated man who has his captors terrified of him. utterly. During an extraordinary sequence. Lector Is brought to meet with a Congresswoman about her daughter who Is in the clutches of a new serial killer, about whom Lector has knowledge.
Lector Is brought before her. trussed in a straight-jacket,

tied to a stretcher with a hockey mask over his face (so he won't use his teeth), and even in this position of complete
immobility, Lector is the one who radiates power and control like a black sun. His veiy words are used as venom-dipped scalpels to flay any who stand in his way. His finely tuned senses and masteiy of deductive reasoning give him the weapons he needs to whiplash those who have, for the present time, got him at a disadvantage.

It is my suspicion that the general public is fascinated by this truly Satanic villain in the same way that the victim of a cobra will stare in rapt attention at the power before which it is helpless. Hopkins gets my vote for an Oscar, and he will live forever in the deep psyches of all filmgoers. Move over Norman Bates; Dr. Lector is here to stay.

==Some Thoughts on Satanic Ethics==
by Jeffrey Deboo

OF ALL THE WAYS in which Satanism challenges the decaying edifice of Christianity, none is more revolutionary thail our rejection ofits ethical system. '"foo long rlght and wrong, good and evil have been inverted by fulse prophets!
...'lbere is nothing inherently sacred about moral codes. IJke the wooden idols of long ago, they are the work of hUIJ18Il hands, and what man has made, man can destroy!" ('lbe Ssta.ntc Bfble, Infernal Diatribe Il: 5-6). This is oneof the key differences between Satanism and other secular philosophies such as humanism, which more or less preserve Christian standards of good and evil, merely trying to rationalize some new set of underpinningS for them in place of Jehovah's dikta.t
Satanism rejects the Christian ethic and replaces it with
- what? Disagreement exists: there is no way to evade that fact. Herd ideologies can easily impose a universal standard of good and evil: the standard is set by the Bible, or the head guru. or the Fuhrer, or the Central Committee of the Party, and everyone meekly goes along. But each Satanist must "question all things" and stand on his own judgement. It would be astonishing if a consensus on ethics had emerged
In a mere quarter-centuiy.
I believe that three basic schools of Satanic ethical thought can be discerned, which I would designate as
follows:

1) Individualist: logically derivable from Satanism's emphasis on enlightened self-interest. Toe standard of right and wrong for the acts of a particular individual is the vital existence of that individual, as detennined by that individual. Each person is the sole judge of the rlghtness or wrongness of his own actions.
2) Social-Darwinist: based on the law of natural selec≠
tion. The standard is the vital existence of the human race as a whole, which requires the survival of the fittest and the continuous weeding out of the weak and unfit.
3) Non-Ethicist: at once the most straightforward and
most radical school of thought. There is no such thing as right and wrong. No act of any human being can be judged to be morally "rlght" or "wrong," "good" or "evil," any more than the acts of any other animal can be so judged. Toe good-vs.-evil, rtght-vs.-wrong dichotomy is a meaningless
fraud.
At first glance these three standards seem irreconcilable, because they generate different judgements upon the same course of action. Take for example the case of a devout Christian who devotes himself entirely to helping the homeless. From the Individualist viewpoint as defined above, this behavior is "good" in that it conforms to the fundamental standards of the individual as he defines them. ("!he Satanist will shake his head ruefully at such altruiStlc self-sacrifice, but this is not relevant to that indMdual's frame of reference.) From the Social-Darwinist standpoint
this Christian's behavior is "evil" in that it contributes to the survival of human parasites who could not survive by their own efforts: the unfit are preserved along with 1:;11e fit. and natural selection is sabotaged. In the Non-Ethicist view, his behavior is morally neutral. because so is all behavior; his acts, along with those of Chingiz Khan or Mother Theresa,
are neither "good" nor "evif' -- they simply are.

In my own view, the key to reconciling these three stadards lies in the Satanic rejection of the concept of a universsal frame of reference. Such a rejection has already effected
a revolution in science, after all. If I voyage to the nearest star at 99% of the speed of light while you stay at home, you will perceive the trip as taking over four years while mere days elapse for me. Neither observer's calendar is "wrong," though they disagree: each is "rlght" for that observer's frame of reference.

So it must be with ethics. Each of the three schools of thought implicitly rejects, at some level. any universal moral frame of reference. From an Individualist stance, A may perform a given action after judging that it is "right" according to his own standard, while B may judge A's action to be "wrong" according to his standard, and may even choose to retaliate against A if he believes it has negatively affected him. (If the reader believes that we can vitally exist without ever acting in a way which causes others to feel "wronged," I urge him to reacquaint himself with the Infernal Diatribe ill:4 and most of V, and with the real world.) Each individual's judgment is valid within his own frame of reference, even though they conflict. Of course, true
self-interest would require A to take into account any possible risk to himself from B's reaction to the act he is considering, even if he views that reaction as "wrong" or baseless.

Toe Social-Darwinist ethic, unlike the Individualist one,
does not prescribe behavior for the individual; its frame of reference is that of the welfare of the human race asa
whole. It does not tell you what your own actions should be
in a given situation: it provides a standard by which you can judge phenomena in the world around you. It is largely by this standard, for example, that we judge Christianity to be "evil." In past centuries Christianity silenced or murdered the most creative and original thinkers; today Christian ethics underlie a social order in which resources are diverted from the productive and competent to guarantee the existence of the lazy and unfit who would not be able to survive by their own efforts. 1bis is natural selection in reverse, if anything- If Nature operated according to Christian principles, no life more sophisticated than algae would ever have evolved; if the human race continues to follow
. I them, we will stagnate and decline.

Note that Social-Darwinism is not a universal frame of reference, because it acknowledges the legitimacy of opposing frames ofreference. It is not, in an absolute sense, ï "evil" that the unfit resist being weeded out; the Individualist ethic in fact requires them to do so. "Evil" lies in creating artlficial conditions in which they can succeed at the expense of the flt.

Only the Non-Ethicist view can claim to be a truly universal frame of reference; and from such a universal perspective, there is indeed no absolute good or evil, therefore all standards of good and evil are non-universal. The vital existence of an individual or even of a species is only significant (morally or otherwise) to the parties who have an interest therein; the survival of the human race is "good" to the human race, but in the last analysis it is neutral from any absolute viewpoint. The value of the Non-Ethicist view is that it enables us to recognize that the search for absolute moral standards is futile, and thus frees us to concentrate on the development and interpretation of the non-universal standards which are relevent and useful in the real world.

==Satanist, Heal Thyself! I'd Rather Not...==
by Magdalene Graham

I HAD A LOVELY COMPLIMENT yesterday, when the locai I milk supplier called at my new apartment (at 8:30 a.m.) to
arrange milk deliveries. I am an early riser. Low-necked dress, fully made-up and perfume concocted exclustvely for
me by Sorcerer's Apprentice. Milkman gazed at me leanmg 1 on my walking-frame and said 'You don't look like an in- valid." I said '1nvalidity is in the mind, not in the body." fDI:s ∑ Adept told me that, long ago - he was right as always,
though it often takes time to appreciate the truth of his
statements). Milkman said "It's a pity more people don't
think like that." I could have replied (but I didn't) that it's rï1
only for Satanists.

Being classified as Disabled has more advantages than disadvantages. I have a guaranteed income which, With aJ1 the allowances and supplements and rebates and anything else that's going, amounts to as much as an over-taxed wage-slave would earn fornine-to-five hard labor, and I have to do nothing for it. I can, of course, supplement that in-
come (discreetly). I have always hated housework and would ) pay a cleaner in preference to taking a holiday; now my servants are paid by the Government. Holiday also comes free
if I fancy a trip to the seaside...might be fun.

As I progress down the street in my motorized wheelchair, traffic makes wayfor me. People open doors and rush to help. It makes them feel good, so I'm doing them a favor.
In the clothes-shops, the assistant will be only too delighted \
to help Madam try on the dresses. Being bisexual, I've had I
some interesting encounters in fitting-rooms - must be the feminine equivalent of "cottages."

If I want to go further afield, a chauffer-driven car is available, usually free of charge. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, a tour of scenic places, lunch and drinks were also provided. Do you know anyone else who has had a gin and tonic on Social Services?

My usual Social Worker is a very kind lady who has done a great deal for me - fur above and beyond the call of duty. She is a devout Christian who goes to church every Sunday. It pleases me to think of this good Christian lady serving the Satanist.
I am not deformed in any way, it is simply that I cannot
walk unaided (multiple sclerosis). This illness affects dif-
ferent people differently, so I may never get any worse.
Anyway, "worry is interest paid before it's due" (wish I could > remember who said that, he/she deserves credit for such a Satanic statement).

Unlike the liberated females, this woman obviously needs protection. Macho men love that; restores their faith
in themselves.

I can't walk. Who the Hell needs walking? Other people t, do the running forme.I am free to amuse myself, or juSt lie I back...

Christians have a big black book telling them what is right and wrong and have been promising Hell-to-pay for wickedness for two thousand years now. Wiccans makea bigdeal out of getting back "three-fold" whatever they put out. (Since virtually every Wiccan rve met is financially
destitute,I guess they must not be trying to do much money
magtc or they'd all be rich by now, right?) 1l1is '1aw'' is supposed to stop them from hexing or cursing. YetI don't believe I've met a Satanist yet whohasn't done his share of Destruction Rituals. The targets get hit but the SataniSts seem to do just fine. One well-known historical example of this is the curse Dr. La.Vey placed on attorney Sam Brody. Sam Brody has been dead for years now but Dr. La.Vey is
thriving!
2) ChristianS and Wiccans believe in external supernatural dieties. SataniSts do NOT believe in external
gods at all; a Satanist is his owngod.

For example, the Christian believes in Satan, while the Wtccan believes in a "homed god." (Is it any wonder the Christian rejects the Wiccan's claim that the ha.try guy with the horns running around With naked women on moonlit nights ISN'T Satan?) Meanwhile, the Satanists have been calmly explaining for over twenty-five years that good atheists make good magidanS. If the ChrlStian Devil WERE real, no Satanist in the world would worship HIM anymore than we'd worship anyone else! Just because the Christian Devil is more HONEST than their God doesn't mean it makes sense to bowdown to him either! Satanists are SATANIC! We act LIKE Satan would. We don't kiss his ass
metaphorically or otherwise!
3) ChrlStianS and Wiccans believe in life after death.
Satanists live for the here and now.

Christians have been pushing the "go to Heaven. not Hell" baloney for centuries. Wtccans often believe in "Side,"a sort of afterlife parking place you stay at until you get your memories stripped and you're sent back to Earth to be retncamated (which seems just the same as individual destruction to me; no personal memories, no personal MEI). Satanists don't pin the reality that IS upon an afterlife reality that MIGHT be. As a result. Satanists are far more earthy and alive. "Eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow you WIIL die" is the Satanic vtew. The Wiccans seem to believe "there's always tomorrow" and sleep-walk to their graves.
4) ChrlStianS and Wiccans BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI
This is really the essential issue the others arebased upon. ChrlStianS and Wiccans are true believers. They live ina fantasy world of their own imagination. When asked what is right and wrong. good or evil, they both BELIEVE what they aretold. Satanists DOUBTI When considering the existence of the supernatural they BEIJEVE. Satanists DOUBTI When deciding whether life on Earth is precious
and unique for mortal betngs who are alive now, or no big

So, you see, it is possible to be a Satanic Witch in a wheelchair.

No, Wiccan. I agree With your rejectlon of being a

Witches, REAL Witches, ARE Satanic! They take great big

They go crazy by stupidly swallowing stupid want

bites out of life and swallow them whole! Witches crush their enemies and are feared, not pitied! Witches kick ass, seduce men and love life! I have met REAL Witches and they DO get what they want, when and how they want it. They don't worship nature, they RULE it!

Wimpy Wiccans, I pity you. You are like a distorted image, a broken mirror. You claim the fame but fear the Name AND WEIL YOU SHOULD! You who lack any power tn this world toy With the symbols of Satan! You who would be witches, deny the Name! You who would ride the night, control the mtnds of men and rise to glory, instead wallow tn the mud of your identical Christian twtn.

W£ SATANIS'IS SPEND a lot of time dtst:lnguishing the differences between our philosophy and that of the Christians, WiCcafiSï Jews. etc...Also in thiS and other publications you aiaY have read of disagreements between groups claiminga satanic tmage. But outside of greater philosophical points, there are more subtle aspects of true Satanic character that
often need addressing.
One of the great challenges SatanJsm poses to the world
IS the destruction of most pre-conceived notions of organJzed religion. but there are certain things that go along with thiS disposal that some of you might have missed- One thing of which members of majOr religlons have been guilty for ages IS using their religlon a a poor justification for a worthy or unworthy action. Rational self-interest and reasonable evaluation of situations go out the window for these types.

Recently. one Satanist offered the idea to me that since the doctrine of Satanism 1s opposed to self-sacrtfice, we
could use being Satanists as justification for refusing to go to war. should military conscription come back into vogue. This iS exactly the kind of excuse making we ought to be
beyond. Since this 1s not a political essay, I'll refrain from going into the tssue of the draft any further. However, as to the main point of religion as an excuse. unagtne the premise reversed using the same principles, thus; '1must fight because I'm a Satantstl" Well, so what? When trying to Justify behavior, religion makes a convenient escape route from
reason. Look out. If someone told you their reason for going

example of using death as one's standard of value. The philosophical premise being endorsed by sucha statement ts '1f enough people die for sometlung, it must be of value."I asked thiS fellow, if millions died to keep worship of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles alive, would that make it valid?
Recently,I attended a party where a frtend introduced
me toa woman rd never met. She had heard ofme through our mutual friend, and she drawled, in a voice heavy with diSaproval, "Oh, aren't you the one who likes Ayn Rand?"
Uh oh. I thought. ''Yes," I replied.
'We're gonna have to have a long talk about this," she
informed me pointedly.

Oh goody. Welcome to one of the Satanic Rules of the Earth: holding one's opinions or advice until asked. This woman went on to tell me that MiSs Rand wasa shallow philosopher and was lacking as a noveliSt. Well,I could write a separate article on MiSs Rand's work, but the tssue here 1s
thatI was, at thiS point in the discussion. uninterested in anything thiS person bad to say on any subject, due to her overwhelming presumptuousness. If I had known ahead of time that she bated the writingS of Ayn Rand, I wouldn't have said as the first thing upon meeting her, "Oh you're the one who doesn't like Ayn Rand. We're gonna have to havea talk."I call thiS the command to look...like an asshole! (See J. Waynes's article in TBF Vol. 2, #2.) Satanists strive for ctvil17.ed behavior, until brutality becomes necessary.
If Satanists refuse to be brought down to the level of the
fools to which we are in opposition, maybe our arguments will be HEARD- Even rational arguments will be lost on rational people if the manner in which they're presented 1s uncouth. Behavior like rve been describing 1s a sign of weakness, something I really despise. Remember those tmmortal

Another form of excuse-making to avoid 1s pretentious

words from the Book of Satan:
'"Ibrice cursed are the weak whose tnsecurity makes
them vile, for they shall serve and suffer."

counterfeit-elitism. What thiS means, ts just because you're

a Satanist doesn't mean that you shouldn't be continually subjected to the same scrutiny as anyone else would have to endure. It has been said that "Satanists are bom. not made," BUT, you still have to grow up. You area god asa Satanist, but you still have the opportunity to bea childish,
narcissiStic god if you so choose.

Instead of relying on the kind of metoric I've Just described, what we ought to rely on 1s our always asking, "Why?" Ask yourself once in a while whether you've goat
better reason for a point of view than. " 'cause I'ma Satanist." Using trrelevent information to defend one's philosophy ts another bad corner to back into.I was speaking witha Jew recently who said he didn't really believe in God or most of what his Jewish doctrine bas to say. Well, why then does he still practice JudaiSm? "Because so many people died to keep it alive," quoth he. 1hiS1sa prime

His libra:ry and personal collection of artifacts were donated to the government upon his death and the books became the foundation of the IJbra:ry of Congress. Many of these books and curios originated outside of the Judeo-Christian culture and would today be balTed from paroch:lal or church collections as "pagan" and "anti-Christian."A trip to his home, "Monticello," in Charlottesville.

The word "pyramid" is itself of Coptic origin:
"pyr" means division. and "met" means ten. as in the word "metric" - Le., 2 x 5. Multiples of the number five appear 1n other famous constructions admired by or associated with the Masonic tradition. It might not be too far-fetched to note that Benjl:min Franklin and others who were great natural scientists lmew that the average height of all Earth's land above sea level is 455 feet: 100 less than the monument. The height of the Great Pyramid is 454 11 feet (as it is today). That the designer of the Washington Monument added 100 feet only elaborates further on the

Jefferson went on to say "nor 1s it less certain that the two races, equally free. can not live wider one government." It 1s worthy of note that "Book of Fate"1s a c:ryptically anti-Christian reference to a force of determination 1n the course of events of the world other than that ofthe ubiquitous Christian God. Obviously, Jefferson's words have been distorted here. in the interests of what we would call today "Political Correctness."

Much misunderstanc:11ng exists about the 'War Between the States." as the Southerners msisted on calling the Civil War. particularly in terms of what really caused it to occur. While it Js true that superfidally, slavery was the moral crusade issue which rallied the masses of illiterate Christian simpletons to gush With sympathy at the perceived plJght of the Negro (the suffering of which was exaggerated by
propagandJsts like Haniet Beecher Stowe) - the real issue of the War Between the States is to be found elsewhere.

Toe real central issue of the war was the extent of the authority which ought to be possessed by the nascent federal government. versus the power of individuals. as expressed in the tenn "States' Rights." This Principle of individual liberty was what motivated the two sides in this conflict. Let meexpla1n.

Toe "Old South" as it was called. was ruled by a natural anstocracy of men and women. which had evolved on personal merit and intelligence, as do all true aristocracies. Their power was founded upon wealth based on agricultural pursutts. They werea group of highly lndivtdual. freedom-

paragons of all the Virtues they deemed "Satanic:" Sdentlfic, materialist. practical, self-sufflctent worldly, sensual, Hellenic∑ "manly," In a word. ï

What we are really talking about when we say "CMl War" is a war between two different t;ypes of men. Toe Negroes were incidental Victlms of Northern political and propaganda requirements.

This split personality of the new nation had cast its shadow even upon the men who were to sJgn the Declaration of Independence. As time flew by, and the new nation entered the next century, the issue. like a canyon created by two landmasses drifting apart only became larger and
larger.

Poltt:icians on both sides tried to bridge the gulf which was beg!nn.ing to diVide the
new nation further in two. Toe "Compromise of 1840", the "Dred Scott Decision", the "Compromise of l850" are some of the better-known attempts to keep
the country from splitting in. They failed.

The rest ofit. the time. the dress. the issues. and all the rest. are merely window dressings. Are Satanists interested In regulating Christians? Do they even care what Christians do?No - and never have. Toe Chdstians, ontheother hand. vr.mt to regulate everything, but they want to regulate and hold back those who"have" most of all.
They regulate in order to take from the free-spirited, thus they smother the vital flame of life burning inside. They oversee and watch what you do and try to fathom what you think in order to crush it with nay saying. They make stupid what is in≠

People are always blaming their cirCUillstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. Toe people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the ctrcumstances

—George Bernard Shaw

==SUCCUBUS==
by Wolf

Like a dark mist distilled from the night she creeps
Into the bedroom of the pious youth;
Against his will she guides his hands
To trace the too-long-forbidden shape.

With skills honed on dozens of his ilk
She hardens him and takes him in.
In Christ's name he fights for self-control
While Satan smiles behind his eyes.

In defeat and ecstasy mingled he cries out;
His will's defeat is her Satanic triumph.
Of the thick fluid catalyst of human motherhood
She milks him of all he has to give.
O defiled chastity!

True spirit, like water, seeks its own level;
True peace is Lucifer's gift.
