Please, enlighten me. I'd like to know more about this.

Do research on it. I don't want to spam anymore on this thread about off topic discussion.

Searched and found this: http://www.av1611.org/othpubls/roots.html, that just looks like some christian fundamentalist conspiracy theory anti-rock propaganda to me... but hey, if you want to believe it that's all up to you.

I read some of it, it just seemed highly unlikely, and delusional. I might read into it just to see what some people actually believe. :shrug:

I don't really care if the origin of my favorite genre is satanic, I just enjoy the music no matter it's origin.

1. There is nothing inherently bad a bout the pentagram. Christians bastardized the symbol into something it wasn't. Much like they did with most pagan symbols in their fervent crusade to eliminate other religions. And Baphomet? Didn't exist until Christians came along and at that point it was just a Bogeyman used to further demonize pagans and paganism in general. Didn't have much to do with Satanism until the 19th century, at which point it was taken up by satanists.

2. You obviously do not listen to much metal if you believe that is the case. And the band you referenced in particular is hardly satanic. Far from it actually, as paganism has nothing to do with Satanism. Amon Amarth sings about Norse mythology and by extent they sing about Asatru, the neo-pagan faith based around that mythology (hell, even the word mythology can be said to be a Christian word made to further destroy the religions that preceded it, and even if it wasn't, it still doesn't help much), of which I am a part of. So yeah, what you said was massively offensive. My faith has nothing do with Christianities Satan, nor the religion that spun off of him.

And besides, theres nothing wrong with satanism anyway even from a Christian perspective. But hardly has there ever been a Christian who was very tolerant of other religions.



May be you should go learn something then before you start shooting your mouth off?

Not to take such an aggressive tone but I'm one of those pagans who finds themselves fairly bitter against Christianity (because of their actions. The fact that most of my faith had to be reconstructed is evidence of that), and Christians like you are the worse kind to me, because you know nothing and are blinded with irrational hate for other religions. Its like me getting all aggro at the guys I know who mainly pray to the giants in my faith. (which is perfectly acceptable by the way)



This really though as far as that last sentence goes it depends on who you're talking to. I personally see it as if I have to harm any living being (I take nature worship very seriously. If it has life, its sacred, whether its my dog or the grass or the trees or my son and daughter) then I must make that harm something sacred, and I must thank that being for it and put every bit of that being to use. If I were to go and hunt a deer for instance, I would waste nothing, and what I cannot use, I would give a proper burial to. If I must cut down a tree then I must spread its seed in nine places.

Long story short theres really no right or wrong way to be a pagan.

Pretty self explanatory, I myself will be playing some viking metal, Amon Amarth

Btw, I love the in game music but I meant after you've listened to it for 2 months and get a bit tired of it lol.

Also I'm not a Christian just to let you know and I'm not in any religion.

Nothing wrong with the pentagram? Yea well its used in satanic rituals and child sacrerfices in many countrys. Also satanist claim its ways for demonic spirits to jump over to our realm. "Baphomet? Didn't exist until Christians came along and at that point it was just a Bogeyman used to further demonize pagans and paganism in general. Didn't have much to do with Satanism until the 19th century, at which point it was taken up by satanists."

I laugh at your ignorance. Baphomet goat head has been used in witchcraft all the way back since 300 AD and came from Ancient Babylon pagan God Moloch. The origin of the Baphomet is unclear. It may be a corruption of Muhomet (Mohammed). The english witchcraft historian Montague Summers suggested that it was a combination of two greek words, baphe and metis, meaning "absorption of knowledge." Baphomet has also been called the Goat of Mendes, The Black Goat and the Judas Goat. Its all used in satanism to worship the devil. Whether you think its bad or good than keep it to your self but I made my point clear that it is satanic and many bands are satanic. Also I'm not a Christian just to let you know and I'm not in any religion.

Hey and I never did mention paganism.

Why do you keep bringing Christianity into this? All I said was that most HW/Rock music is satanic. Some bands have it in their music videos like upside down crosses and baphomet and such. While others have it in their lyrics.

Alright, they can go ahead and claim that, but since demons aren't real I find that a hard one to believe. So you're telling me that by drawing or making something in the form a pentagram "demons' will jump out and in to this world? Sir, no offense, but if you believe that at all you should get some help. About the goat head, again, it wasn't adopted by satanism until satanism came about (19th century about I believe) and that's when it became "evil". Christianity just wanted to get rid of Paganism so it could be the ruling religion. Ever read Deuteronomy? It says to kill Pagans. And no, I didn't "misinterpret it" it says it plain as day.

Well, this is the source I found: http://www.av1611.org/othpubls/roots.html, and that's definitely a christian website.

I think you should go back and read my comment..... I said what many satanist have said in books and interviews. For ex. high level satanist Alistair Crowly said things like that. No I don't believe demons will jump out of oblivion gates and attack with fireballs lmao! I said even if you do not believe it or not I rather not listen to bands screaming satanic lyrics or have satanic images or symbolism in their videos, I'm not into that "SCENE". If that does not bother you than more power to you. I use to be a metal head my self so I understand why you like metal. Peace.

You can find videos on youtube and websights and such like that without anything to do with christianity.....

Also Satanism started in Europe in the 19th century but it has been practiced all the way back sinch ancient times.
