one minor point. christians are just pagans who agreed to change
the symbolism so they wouldn't get killed. now they're angry that
they were made to conform and want to assert their independence and
end up looking like fools by claiming satanism is what the christians
were accusing the pagans of being when they came around to control.

other pagans are simply confused by all the poorly written literature out
on shelves throughout metaphysical bookstores across the nation.
basically there's still a lot of fear of christians but that is no
reason to buy into their allegations and end up alienating those
of like minds, therefore self-excluding themselves from 'the process'.

satanism and paganism better make friends real fast
or paganism will simply be overthrown for being stupid and buying into
the rantings and ravings of the sickly klippoth.
