I noticed there wasn't a TST Lemmy community. The Satanic Temple is a modern satanic religion that aims to promote human rights and compassion. Check out their about page on their official website at https://thesatanictemple.com/pages/about-us. Note that this community is not an official affiliation. TST is also separate and not affiliated with the Church of Satan, who have a slightly different viewpoint of what satanism truly is. Dunno what to post in here, but maybe some will search for this and take part. Hello!

When did you officially consider yourself a member of TST? (media.kbin.social)

Curious as to how long after learning of TST did it take you to call yourself a Satanist. Immediate? Gradual? Thanks.

I'm not sure if they're more likely to become corrupt, but if they do they can be worse than other organizations. Religions have all sorts of special legal protection, and adherents to them usually find coming to the conclusion that they and their representatives have done wrong to be a much higher bar to clear.

So even if not more likely to become corrupt, they present a particularly large hazard if and when they do.
