- Stop Explaining Yourself
- Anton LaVey said that he believed Satanists were chromosomally different.
- This may have been tongue in cheek, but the point stands
- Magus Gilmore mentioned that Satanists may be a separate ethnicity
- Again, this may have been tongue in cheek
- The point is that we are different. We think differently, we act differently and we engage with the world differently
- It is normal for us to want to explain our religion to those close to us in an effort for them to understand
- Everyone has been told what Satanism is through religion, culture and media
- The truth is vastly different than what they have been told
- They will not be able to understand fully unless they are a Satanist themselves, or truly want to understand
- This is extremely rare
- You cannot expect to be understood
- No one cares about you like you care about yourself
- They shouldn’t either
- You are a different type of human being
- No one cares about you like you care about yourself
- When you try to explain yourself, you are essentially trying to ‘dumb down’ who you are
- Let people understand you through your actions
- Let them SEE what a Satanist is
- A confident, willful and respectful individual
- You are sacrificing the exoticism of Satanism for a more palatable satan-lite presentation.
- Is that why you were attracted to Satanism?
- Is that how you want other Satanists to reflect their dark, empowering religion?
- We don’t understand why a worker bee is content with being a worker bee, why would you think a worker bee would want to or be able to understand what a god is?
- The others will not understand you, they never will, and you shouldn’t care.
- Anton LaVey said that he believed Satanists were chromosomally different.

- Parents of high school students started a petition to remove a principal who loves classic heavy metal band Iron Maiden
- https://www.insider.com/parents-high-school-students-remove-principal-loves-iron-maiden-2021-10
- Parents of high school students in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada have started a petition to remove a school official because of the classic heavy metal band Iron Maiden.
- Close to 400 people have signed the Change.org petition to transfer Eden High School Principal Sharon Burns.
- IHeartRadio reported that the petition was started by Debbi Lynn.
- “As concerned parents with impressionable children at Eden High School in St. Catharines, Ontario, we are deeply disturbed that the principal assigned to the school blatantly showed Satanic symbols and her allegiance to Satanic practices on her public social media platforms where all the students can see them under @edenprincipal (not her personal account),” the petition said.
- On Friday, an update on the petition said they didn’t want to remove Burns because of her love for Iron Maiden but because of “openly displaying her OWN handmade sign with the 666 clearly displayed on it.”
- The number 666 is used to represent the devil, antichrist, or evil.
- Burns’s Twitter bio identifies her as “Principal at Eden High School. Growth Mindset Practitioner. Fueled by metal & ska. & chickens.”
- A petition in support of Burns had more than 10,000 supporters by Friday night.
- “It is ridiculous that a couple of parents only judge her role as a principal only based on an instagram post. (About liking the band Iron Maiden. That’s it.) Eden High School is a public school. Not a Christian school. If you somehow don’t like the principal of your child, grandchild, relative etc.’s school, then send them to another one,” it said.
- The incident is reminiscent of the “Satanic Panic” of the 1980s, when conspiracy theorists claimed satanic cults were abusing children, NPR reported.
- Unvaccinated patients are getting kicked off organ transplant waitlists
- https://arstechnica.com/science/2021/10/unvaccinated-patients-are-getting-kicked-off-organ-transplant-waitlists/
- A growing number of medical facilities across the country are directing coveted organ donations to patients who have been vaccinated against COVID-19, pushing people who remain unvaccinated down or even off of transplantation waitlists.
- The thinking behind this move is simple: With transmission of the pandemic coronavirus still high in the US, unvaccinated transplant candidates face an extremely high risk of COVID-19, which poses a danger to them and imperils the usefulness of the scarce, life-saving organs.
- Receiving a transplanted organ requires patients to take immunosuppressant drugs that will prevent their bodies from rejecting the new organ as foreign. But this immune suppression also makes the recipients highly susceptible to becoming infected with the pandemic coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, and developing severe COVID-19. Some experts estimate that transplant recipients’ risk of dying from COVID-19 is as high as 20 to 30 percent.
- Odds of survival have long been factored into prioritizing who will get donated organs. And requiring vaccinations against devastating infectious diseases is also standard. Organ recipients are already generally required to be vaccinated against hepatitis A, hepatitis B, influenza, and tetanus, among others diseases.
- Still, COVID-19 vaccines, which are newly approved by the Food and Drug Administration, are fresh to the lists. On August 13, the American Society of Transplantation and the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) released a joint statement recommending that “all solid organ transplant recipients should be vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2,” as should “all eligible household and close contacts” of those recipients. More and more transplant programs are adopting the policy—but not yet all.
- The reality of unvaccinated patients getting kicked off some organ waitlists recently made headlines with the story of an unvaccinated Colorado woman named Leilani Lutali. UCHealth in Denver denied Lutali’s kidney transplant surgery because she was unvaccinated and informed her in a letter that she would be listed as “inactivated” on a kidney transplant waiting list if she didn’t get a first vaccine dose within 30 days. Lutali, who told the Associated Press that she is a born-again Christian without a denomination, says she objects to the vaccines on religious grounds. With the national patchwork of vaccine requirements for transplant patients, Lutali is now seeking a transplant in another state, such as Texas or Florida, in facilities that do not require COVID-19 vaccination.
- “I feel like I’m being coerced into not being able to wait and see and that I have to take the shot if I want this lifesaving transplant,” Lutali told Kaiser Health News.
- The outlet noted that there are nearly 107,000 people waiting for organs in the US—more than 90,000 of them are, like Lutali, waiting for a kidney. Dozens of people in need of various organs die each day while waiting, KHN reported.
- “We mandate hepatitis and influenza vaccines, and nobody has an issue with that,” Dr. Kapilkumar Patel, director of the lung transplant program at Tampa General Hospital in Florida, told KHN. “And now we have this one vaccination that can save lives and make an impact on the post-transplant recovery phase. And we have this huge uproar from the public.”
