I have a confession to make: I recently bought a copy of The Satanic Bible by Anton Szandor LaVey. Before anyone makes any snap judgments, I just want to let everyone know that I'm not a hardcore Satanist. Granted, I listen to a lot of heavy metal that is about Satanic subjects, but I never really identify with any particular religion even though I believe that some form of higher power exists. Thing is, I'm a really curious person, and I like studying different subjects, including various religions. My main problem with religion of any sort is when people misuse them to deprive others of their civil liberties, whether by trying to strip women of their right to have an abortion or by crashing jet airliners full of innocent people into buildings.
