For decades, critics have accused Anton LaVey, founder of the Church of Satan, of plagiarizing The Book of Satan, the fiery opening to his 1969 The Satanic Bible. In his incisive new essay, “Anton LaVey and the Right of Might,” Magister Kevin I. Slaughter dismantles these claims with historical rigor and unapologetic clarity. Drawing on Church of Satan archives and scholarly analysis, Slaughter reveals how LaVey openly transformed works like Ragnar Redbeard’s Might is Right into a bold philosophical statement, not a concealed theft. A publisher, archivist, and Magister in the Church of Satan, Slaughter has championed radical thinkers through […]
For Satanists, our carnal religion celebrates every day as Earth Day. We cherish and protect our wondrous home world, with all of its beauties and terrors, and invite you to do the same.

Born on this day in 1930, our dear founder lived a life that was ever carnal, that seemed destined to crystallize in that ultimate act of iconoclasm, the founding of the Church of Satan in 1966—which he declared our Year One. As a refresher for some, please reread my biographical essay on the extraordinary man who inspired me, and who was both a friend, and, in his own words, a colleague. Hail Anton Szandor LaVey—one helluva guy! Shemhamforash! Hail Satan! —Magus Peter H. Gilmore

As such, is there a correlation between music theory (the “language” of music) and the elements we need to employ in Lesser Magic (the “language” of Lesser Magic)? On this Season 3 premiere episode of The Neutral Wisdom Podcast, Satanist Robert Shirley discusses music […]
