They named him: SATAN XERXES CARNACKI LAVEY. I kid you not! I can only say they must have taken leave of their senses to actually name a child that. Can you imagine what it's going to be like for him growing up with a moniker like that?

To which I say: Hear, hear! However: I am tempted to construe that as an insult. In no way do I wish for a return of CoS satanism - the fallacy that accompanied every movement of that artifice is no pleasant memory. Instead my "sigh" is for an end to the hermitry a satanist is now forced to enter. Concealment brings ignorance. Too frequently does the media refer to the blood ritual as a satanic act. One of the more recent areas of medical research is "ritual abuse" - children have been warped by unwilling involvement in ritual - who is blamed? The perpetrators do not fit into any one, easily classified category, so they are dismissed as "satanists". This damnation is all to frequent and unchallenged, especially as satanism is supposedly deemed "acceptable". > thank-you from the school. Can anyone today imagine a > Satanist being invited > to lecture at a high school full of children? My point exactly, though with a slightly different emphasis. How can one expect this situation to change if all Satanism is doing is withdrawing further and further into veiled secrecy? ]|-D 201434369420143436942014343694201434369420143436942014343694718 From: Lady Byron Area: Base of Set To: Dark Star 28 Jun 94 12:38:14 Subject: No Joke UpdReq DS> It seems that Anton LaVey and Blanche Barton have just had a newborn DS> son....wait, it gets better....are you ready for this?
