To: alt.satanism From: xeper@aol.com (Dr. Michael A. Aquino) Subject: Re: New Satanic Symbol Date: 27 Mar 2003 18:22:56 GMT Back in the C/S days I also played with the Baphomet emblem now and then. It struck me as "off center" that it would name Leviathan and not Satan, and I also thought the goat's head was both peculiar and scrawny. I would have preferred a more Schwarzenegger-looking ram's head, with strong horns curling out and around the two top pentagram points, burning eyes, and a strong mouth & chin. Anton was a superb artist, of course, and I also thought it would be appropriate for such a steroid-Baphomet to be drawn by him instead of old-patchwork-European-anonymous. I think he might have gotten around to it if the 1975 crisis hadn't turned everything upside-down, but I still don't know how the Hebrew letters for "Satan" could have fit five points. [English would work fine, but then it would lose the ooga-booga weirdness of those dangly Hebrew letters.] Around 1974 I sent him a slapstick proposal for a Satanic political party, together with an appropriate redesign of the U.S. seal for when we took power. The eagle was replaced by a bat, the clouds/stars by an inverse pentagram, and the lightningbolts & olive branches in the claws by a trident and an inverted cross. Around the perimeter was "National Satanist Devil's Advocate Party", whose initials did not escape Anton. He promptly wrote back: * * * * * * * * * * N.S.D.A.P. Herr Politische Leiter Michael A. Aquino Aussendienstelle Santa Barbara Kalifornia, Nordamerika. Dear "Mike": You must be joking, ha ha, but of course when you made mention to my Frau regarding politische Partei. How gets by you such an cuckoo ideal I have a trouble to fathom. You, as well as myself know that suchkind of thinking is nonsense of the first Wasser. My friend, when der Tag comes, then perhaps we entertain a thought or perhaps two thoughts. Until then, it is of the utmost importance to put aside this madness. Of course and most reasonably, we will continue in the development of our most needed functions: Abwehrpolizei, sites for future Konzentrationslagen, and but of course a finely appointed Salon Kitty such as Heydrich had in Berlin for the joy of senior officers. I might add, as matter of fact I will add to this the extreme impotance of elimination of all non-Satanists by humane means. I have some new and worthy experiments in the rear end of my mind in which instance many non-Satanist "volunteers" will be useful. So much for sonderbehandling. At any rates, you are possessed of a grand imagination when you make a suggestion of politische Partei. I have bet your Fraulein in Sommerland would have ein good belly laugh if she could hear of such ridiculousness. We are a peaceful Volk, wanting only that the Welt bow to our domination. If the good peoples want us to provide Politik for them, they will ask. In the means while we let them hit each other and steal purses and get rapped in parks. Maybe after some time they will ask us and then we can provide politische solution. Until then, please my friend und Brueder, excuse my typewriting [my Sekretaer is tied up], and keep a cold head concerning\ politische Partei. Ewiges Satan, Anton Szandor LaVey Satanische Reichsfuehrer
