What Would Satan Do? Let's Put Your Morals To The Test!

  • The Black Flame Temple(TBFT) is a TST Candidate group, based in Oklahoma
  • Hellish Hypotheticals is TBFT's public online discussion and debate group, repeating monthly on the 4th Saturday.

We'll be discussing Tenet III, among others, by placing them against each other in practical, thought out scenarios!

If you have questions about how you can apply the tenets to work toward nobility in action in thought, or are looking for Satanic Community and a chance to have open, intelligent discussion with an Ordained Minister of Satan, then we'd love to offer you to come join us!

These scenarios are designed to challenge assumptions, encourage thoughtful discussion, and explore how compassion, justice, bodily autonomy, science, and reason interact when no answer is easy.

Our discussions are open to everyone who has an open mind, and no prior work, reading, or membership; either to our congregation or TST as a whole, is necessary!

Satanisms View of Demonology

Hi there - I’ve been exploring Satanism lately. I’m from a small town in northern Manitoba.

As you could imagine a man from a small town interested in esoteric things is a black sheep.

Over the years I’ve come to realize how performative religion and politics are.

I’ve always been interested in Buddhism but never thought of myself as a good Buddhist. I’ve got a temper. I love sex. Cannabis has helped me in enormous ways. Precepts broken.

Anyways I was watching a documentary on the Catholic view of demonology. A very dear coworker of mine is Roman Catholic. I’m usually in the search of the truth of all things. It’s the Buddhist-atheist in me.

It spoken about the classifications that the church gave demons. The popes chief exorcist gives two for them. Ordinary and supernatural. The ordinary is normal temptation. The supernatural is harassment by demons.

I seen this meme this morning with a baphomet. It triggered this question. What’s the Satanic view of demonology?

I want to join but I really enjoy paranormal investigation

so I was looking into joining TST after escaping the mormon church, it seems so amazing and perfect for me, just one small problem. I really enjoy conducting paranormal investigations, I'm highly skeptical about the actual existence of ghosts which is why I like to go out and look for evidence. I'm honestly not sure if this goes against the fifth tenet or if it supports it because I always try to be as scientific as possible about investigating something that really doesn't have much science backing it. It honestly might partially be due to my fear of death but I'm so interested in trying to figure out what happens to the human conscience after our bodies stop. Would that be too much of a conflicting interest if I did want to join?

Christianity Damage: It Has RUINED My Life

Good afternoon,

I wanted to share an anecdote about how Christianity damaged my life.

I have been addicted to cocaine and benzos for the past two years and cannot stop. I had a heart attack yesterday and cannot come off Klonopin. Klonopin has been used to stop the fear of hell.

Has anyone else suffered drug issues to cope with leaving Christianity?

Thanks, family.

TST has been more of a family than the church ever has. To that, I say Hail Satan!

Well, iam sure that this is not normal with me

Iam M (24), I am getting thoughts of Satanic things like to lie, To not follow idol worshipping, liking incest, loving people, supporting freedom for women and giving them independence and thinking they are equal to men or what ever they think also matters etc... and with this iam unable to get set with a normal partner and I brokeup, because I was never felt comfortable with her, so I was planning to date a satanic girl but unable to find nearby, So iam here,

I wanna speak with a satanism lady to understand what are they like because my mind is getting obsessed with that one lady coming in myind just by thoughts or maybe some lonely is calling me like this from nature, I don't know.

So if you are a lady with the same thoughts as mine let's talk.

New DoD Religious Affiliation Codes

A few months ago, the DoD revised its recognized religious affiliation codes (RAC). Among the many removed is Atheism. They claim that non-listed religions are consolidated into "Other Religions" and "No Religion". Marines (maybe other Services too)are now being told to update their religion in our file to one of the new codes. This seems to violate equal opportunity since they've removed so many religions yet retained many sects of Christinaity. Other popular world religions are also lumped into their larger groups, e.g., Muslim, despite its many sects. Is TST or anyone attempting to petition these new RACs and pursue any avenues to offer broader recognition? To me, "No Religion" implies no preference. I do have a preference. If the DoD is too cowardly to put Satanism on the list, the least they could do is include Atheism.

Our Unbaptism - 6/6/26

My fiancé and I performed an unbaptism for each other at sunset on 6/6/26, and it was perfect for us! The only downside was that our legs got tingly from kneeling so long lol.

We acknowledged the insignificance of our baptisms, symbolically ate from the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, blacked out Bible passages we strongly disagreed with, agreed to The Seven Tenets of The Satanic Temple, and riddled the Bible with inverted pentacles and the word “LIES”.

Our background music consisted of the theme from Halo, “Firelink Shrine” from Dark Souls, “Time” from Inception, and a few classic classical pieces.

We had a blast, and I just wanted to share it with my favorite subreddit community! ❤️‍🔥

Note: We recognize the book “Compassionate Satanism” is not meant to be a Satanic Bible by any means. It was just my in-depth introduction to Satanism, plus it looked nice on our altar kind of parallel to the Bible—another nice little “Fuck You” to the church.
