Theistic Satanism

Theistic Satanism is the belief that Satan is a real spiritual being that people can have a relationship with. The practitioners of theistic Satanism follow Satan and his teachings, although their beliefs and practices can vary. Theistic Satanists usually worship Satan as a God, believe in their own version of events described in the bible, and look to Satan as a source of spiritual guidance. They might perform rituals, pray to Satan, and read Satanic texts. Theistic Satanists might also try to acquire special powers or put curses on other people.
