DEVIL WORSHIP – The Other Side

Before you start reading it, my apologies if i happen to hurt any of your religious sentiments. This article is in noway intended to hurt anyone as I truly believe in the live and let live policy.

Iron Maiden, Cradle of Filth, Black Sabbath, Jimi Hendrix, Freddie Mercury, Lady Gaga; the list goes on. Most of these bands or musicians have been associated with Devil Worship in some way.  Rumour has it that Lady Gaga and Beyonce are Diabolist. Jimi Hendrix and Kurt Cobain, along with many others from the 27 club sold their soul to the Devil and were hence taken at the pinnacle of their career at the age of 27. Many others being killed by the group of Illuminati who work for the Devil.

Are these really examples of Devil worship? Or a result of drug overdose, alcoholism, extravagant sex life and accidents.

To be honest, these musicians have nothing to with the Devil. These are rumours created by some jealous low self esteemed morons who couldn’t believe these musicians were talented.

Some of you must have heard of the ‘Black Metal Circle.’ They are a cult in Norway, known to have burned down Churches, play the music of evil, mess with graveyards and create blasphemy. They were known to be Satanist. The whole concept of Diabolism popularized from them. But however the truth in astonishingly different. The cult leader Euronymous confessed that he terrorized the people behind the mask of Satan to instill fear of God in people. So on the contrary, they worshipped good Lord himself.

Then what really is Devil Worship? Why would anyone in their right mind worship a force of evil? Sacrificing dear lives in the name of the Dark God, how does that make sense? Has it ever occurred to you that Devil worshipers have a genuine reason to worship? How did this Devil Worship really start at the first place?

In the Middle Age, the Church and the kings tried their best to replace all religions with Christianity. When some of the public refused to believe in the so-called Word of God and continued to follow their former religion, the priests decided to use the wrong means. They labeled all other religions as Devil worship. This is how Paganism got a negative name. Why, even Hindus was termed as Diabolist. Out of fear, many accepted the Bible.

The priests also saw Science as a threat to religion. They believed great minds like Galileo, Isaac Newton, Leonardo Da Vinci were also Satanist. (Science students might agree on this one because they torture us with their theorems and laws. But that’s another issue now.) Women were expected to be submissive to their husbands. The feminists were termed as witches and burned down. Gays and transgenders were considered as the followers of evil too. The preists even put atheists and agnostics under that category. In short, whatever was not Christian was a Diabolist.

 Though none of these were actual Satanist, they have a similar mentality. Devil worshippers are great believers of freedom. They have an open approach to life. They don’t believe in Heaven or Hell, they make the place they live in one. They believe in equality and the ‘live and let live’ policy. The God they worship is just a fallen defeated hero.

In Egyptian mythology, Horus was the God of sky and day. His twin Set was the God of night, thunderstorm and desert. Certain sects worshipped the former, certain latter. When these sects broke into a war, the former sect won. This is how Set came to be known as a Devil.

Set was simply the God of darkness. During ancient time, most people feared the dark. Simple reason being the lack of light. Besides carnivores wandered about and made a meal of their cattle and children. Night is more vulnerable to flu. Hence it was considered the Devil’s time.

At some point of time, you must have heard of Lilith, better known as the Devil’s bride. She is said to wander at night and molest innocent(not really) men. She is often associated with fertility and child birth evil. She is believed to have sex for pure pleasure. This is what everyone believes. However Devil worshippers have a different tale to tell.

Lilith was created alongside Adam. He always dominated and believed that she must surrender to him. That did not go well with Lilith and she left him. She stood up for what she believed in and demanded equality. This is the reason why Devil worshippers adore her. She did not fear the convectional beliefs of Adam. However she was banished into the underworld for the same.

Devil worshippers follow such misunderstood heroes. They believe in ideas shunned by normal humans. They don’t pray to the evil, they just pray to something different. There are heartless creatures who sacrifice children and animals in the name of Devil. But so have the ones who follow the whiter Lord. You cannot deny that no wars have been fought in the name of religion. Hitler punished innocent simply because they were Jews. The 26/11 encounter in Mumbai, where terrorists like Kasab attacked us in the name of Jihaad. Kasab boasted proudly that he didn’t regret taking away so many lives. The middle age priests burned down innocent women calling them witch. Hasn’t all this happened in the name of God, not Devil. The world wars were fought by people who followed God. Are you to tell me that only Devil worshippers sacrifice then I have news for you. More hearts have bled in the name of God.

Diabolists are just ordinary humans like us. They also enjoy ordering a pizza on a movie night. They are more worried about who will win El Classico* than killing sheep.  They just try to understand the losing side rather than believing that the winning side are the best.

I am not encouraging you to start off with Satanism. If it were upto me, I would abolish all religion. Neither am I blaming Christianity or any other religion here. All religions were started with a purpose of giving us hope and something to believe in. It’s the people who have corrupted them. I just want you to understand the other side of the story. Just open your eyes and arms to differences. See the world from another pair of eyes. And stop carrying that black and white label with you wherever you go.

*El Classico – seriously watch some football. These are matches played between Barcelona and Real Madrid, the biggest Spanish club rivals.
