Eh, what?

Does someone have to be god in order to have control over his life?

No, that's just what the satanists believe.

Where do you get this?
Some satanists believes there is a god and a devil and some are atheists. But I've never heard about any satanists that think everyone is gods.

Brain!

"I believe that there isn't a God simply because of the fact..."

An atheist would certainly share your 'belief'. My question is, why is it important to proclaim this belief? Do you 'know', or do you just believe?

The reason I ask this question of redundancy, is because (it seems) if you 'know', then you wouldn't feel the need to proclaim that fact; you would simply be content with that factual objective (whatever)knowledge that god doesn't exist. Are you 'absolutely sure' you are content with this knowledge?

Surely, you're not another agnostic whannabe?

Hi Brainboy, welcome to this site!

Could you elaborate on your 'sixth sense' please?

I don't think I've ever talked to anyone who believed they had had past lives and remembered them.

Also, what makes you a 'Satanist' as opposed to someone who takes charge of their own life and doesn't believe anyone else is in charge? Where does the 'satan' part come in? What's the difference between your beliefs and a New Ager?

love
Helen

A bit more on the sixth sense is pretty basic, all it consist of is strong feelings that occur, I then cross refrence those feelings with all the possible reason and almost every time one stands out. I'll give you an example, just the other day I'm sitting at my house, listening to music and enjoying a little bit of the earth(it helps at times) anyways, I was just sippin on a beer(not drunk) and puffin then my heart started to pound and I knew something was wrong, right away I could tell, so I go downstairs I couldn't pin-point this one(I can explain why) and there's cops at my door because of a noise complaint or whatever. The reason i couldn't pinpoint it in my opinion is because I never heard all the noise so I never would have thought cops, and I'm not that much of a bad-ass anymore.
Next
Some one who takes charge of their own lives is more of an atheist than anything, I believe I'm God and at times I have been, my control over people can be quite strong and I've got the gift of gab, and can be quite charming, by believing I'm God I'm not trying to be an egotistical jackass or anything, I just think that I control myself and I also have control over others be sub-concious or not, this probably seems like gibberish but it makes perfect sense to me.

I like to argue which is why I proclaim it, I know how far-fetched it sounds and I know that people will argue the fact. I also think that if I show people a good argument on this fact it may shine a light on this belief. Not that I'm attempting to stress my beliefs onto others, like Jehoba's( undying hate, even thoughI'm related to them) I just like to put the thought in the air.

The reason I think that I can remeber past lives isn't a clear fact, it isn't re-lived in dreams it's just feelings here feelings there that enhance this fact.

Satan himselve (not that there even is one) comes in simply becasue my belief has been dubbed satanism a long time ago. It was called that because they didn't believe in a God therefore making them satan. The power of the church eh?

Brain!

Mmmm, sounds like you argue for the sake of arguing. Why argue some thing that doesn't exist?
