| ENT_SAT_LAVEYAN_SATAN | PER_MODERN_SATANISM | high | In Church of Satan doctrine (LaVey 1969) Satan is not a literal being but a symbol of the carnal self, pride, rational self-interest and the adversarial principle; venerated rhetorically as the embodiment of human nature and self-deification. Modeled neutrally as the movement's symbolic reception of the adversary. | SRC_LAVEY_SATANIC_BIBLE | reviewed |
