Especially if you're coming from a religious or spiritual angle. If someone identifies as a "Satanist" and worships Satan (even as a "joke" or to make a point or something)...yeah, there's good reason to be wary of that person. That's not good for your soul.
Controversial statement: It's bad to worship Satan. Don't do it.
Is this the edgelord atheist church or the actual Devil worshippers one?
I looked it up. The Satanic Temple is the ulta-progressive one.
This one, the Church of Satan, is the more traditionally satanic, although both apparently claim to 'not reaaaaalllly worship Satan.'
But, yeah, the Temple is just a straight up progressive activist group, while the Church is more Satan-y.
I've said this here before: If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and calls abortion a sacrament like a duck. . .
