Again, I don't understand how polite discussion is disrespectful or even an "imposition of views".
I agree 100% that it would be wrong to flip you off or try to kill you because of your beliefs. But if I believed I had discovered the answer to life's problems and/or a way to spend eternity in paradise I'd be a real dick if I DIDN'T try to share that with you. Granted it would be wrong to use force (or for that matter be obnoxious about it once I've been told you're not interested). It just seems to me that lumping reasonable and polite prosletizing in the same category as armed conquest is intellectually dishonest.
I see no difference in sharing one's faith with others (again in a non coercive fashion) than sharing one's favorite recipes.
At the risk of appearing to speak for bellavite1, modern Satanism isn't really worship of Satan. A more accurate description of it would be a stylized form of hedonism and non-conformity blended with a strong libertarian attitude toward ones spirituality.
I think most of the time when someone hears "Satanist" they assume "Occultist". Most of the Satanists I've known are decent folk that just wear a bit too much black![]()
