Antechamber to “Frequently Asked Questions”
This document will continue to be updated as specific questions arise which need to be addressed. The answers here are often brief and can be explored more thoroughly if you take the time to read through the rest of our official web site—www.churchofsatan.com—and books such as The Satanic Bible and other works by Anton Szandor LaVey as well as The Satanic Scriptures by Peter H. Gilmore.
