There are two new pages on Churchofsatan.com:
- https://churchofsatan.com/faq-replies-for-atheists/
The FAQ has been expanded to include FAQs for atheists and other people asking the same sorts of questions. This was written by Rev Jared Mammon and myself. - https://churchofsatan.com/on-the-misconceptions-of-atheism-and-satanism/
Way back in episode #16 of Satansplain, I did a full examination on these same types of questions and accusations. All of that has now been put in written form here. It’s admittedly quite long. Besides going over the same points in the first link, it also takes a look at the first 3 chapters of the Book of Lucifer from “The Satanic Bible”, answering how the notions of “God” and “Satan” actually fit into Satanism’s worldview. It’s more or less a transcription of Satansplain episode #16.

- A previous post of mine here on the site, “Anton LaVey was an atheist and Satanism is a non-theistic religion“. It mentions the above links, with some more examples and memes.
- Atheist websites and other pages explaining the meaning of “atheism”:
- LearnReligions.com: Atheism vs. Agnosticism. One of the better articles I’ve found that explains many misconceptions.
