Two East Texas teenagers were indicted by a Nacogdoches County grand jury earlier this month for allegedly killing animals in a satanic type ritual.Once again Satanism is misrepresent in media. Performance of any type of ritualistic type killing goes against the core beliefs. Satanists are atheists, "the only people who perform sacrifices are those who believe in supernatural beings who would consider a sacrifice to be some form of payment for a request or form of worship. Since we do not believe in supernatural beings there is no reason for a Satanist to make a sacrifice of any sort."
Court documents show Delaney Walters, 18, and Mark Tyler Ainsworth, 17, will each face three cruelty to non livestock animal charges. The jury indicted them on the morning of June 6.
These "children" are not Satanist by a long shot and any attempts to classify them as such should be met with resistance. "People who believe in some Devilish supernatural being and worship him are Devil-worshippers, not Satanists,,, In Satanism each individual is his or her own god—there is no room for any other god and that includes Satan, Lucifer, Cthulhu or whatever other name one might select or take from history or fiction."
"Satanism advocates that young people should spend time in self-exploration—discovering talents and developing them, as well as in exploring the world around you—the many philosophies and cultures that exist, so that you can use your freedom of choice wisely, and come to understand yourself."
They are definitely not candidates for membership in the Church of Satan!!
