天啊,太感谢了,这么珍贵的资料/~~~~~~~~~~>_<~~~~~~~~~~~~~
只是还有些地方不明白,为什么会有撒但教徒随意杀人呢.是否他们过于放纵自己,还是从教规中得到启示可以这样做?撒旦崇拜一例

Beliefs and practices of Religious Satanists:
"Satanism respects and exalts life. Children and animals are the purest expressions of that life force, and as such are held sacred and precious..." 2 Children and animals are not abused or killed.
Those Satanists who believe in Satan or Set as a living entity do not worship or demonstrate their faith in him (as, for example, Christians worship and pray to their God).They believe that one should live out their lusts and desires, and enthusiastically explore the "seven deadly sins" with other consenting adults
Uniqueness and creativity are encouraged.
关于Gothic Satan
Gothic Satanism -- an extremely rare religious belief that is unrelated to religious Satanism. Gothic Satanism is based on belief about Satanism that was promoted by the Christian church during the Renaissance. It involves inverted cross symbols, selling one's soul to Satan, and engaging in ritual murder. From vampirism, the Rudas seem to have picked up the practice of drinking blood, sleeping in coffins and visiting cemeteries.
Gothic Satanism - Today:
Five centuries years later, many people believe that Gothic Satanists remain a great threat. In the State of Utah, a newspaper poll showed that about 90% of adults believe in the existence of Satanic groups who abuse and kill infants. Satanists are no longer believed to fly through the air on broomsticks or instantaneously vanish. But the baby killing, selling one's soul to Satan, rituals involving a goat, breaking a cross or crucifix, even shape shifting between animal and human has been described by modern Fundamentalist or other Evangelical Christian authors. Many writers and seminar speakers may be completely unaware that most of their source material can be traced back to the texts used by the Renaissance Witch hunters. Outrageous claims have been made of 60,000 ritual killings a year in North America, and of baby breeding prisons where young women are kept continually pregnant so that their infants can be taken and sacrificed. The concept of Gothic Satanism as being thoroughly anti-Christian has remained intact for centuries.
No criminal investigation in the past 300 years is known to have found hard evidence of Satanic Ritual Abuse (with the possible exception of a case in Greece during 1995). However, many Americans and Europeans believe that a highly organized, secret, internationally controlled network of Gothic Satanists exists. Tens of millions of Americans believe that it is a major social threat, even though no physical evidence of its existence has ever been found. Countless law officers have searched for this form of abuse for decades without success. The public's belief in Satanic Ritual Abuse is largely supported by thousands or tens of thousands of adults who have recovered what are believed to be false memories of abuse as a result of Recovered Memory Therapy. A second support for the belief occurred in the 1980's and early 1990's when many court cases were fought over what was believed to be ritual abuse in day care centers, pre-schools, baby-sitting services, church Sunday schools, etc. Young children disclosed stories of horrendous physical and sexual abuse. Much of it was ritual in nature. Hundreds of adults were convicted as perpetrators of MVMO (Multi-Victim, Multi-Offender) child abuse, and given long jail sentences. Research has since shown that the children's memories were probably of events that never happened, but which arose as a result of faulty interview techniques, where repetitive and direct questioning was used.
