From every set of principles (be it religious, political, or philosophical), some good can be<br />

extracted. Amidst the madness of the Hitlerian concept, one point stands out as a shining<br />

example of this - "strength through joy!". Hitler was no fool when he offered the German<br />

people happiness, on a personal level, to insure their loyalty to him, and peak efficiency from<br />

them.<br />

It has been clearly established that the majority of all illnesses are of a psychosomatic nature,<br />

and that psychosomatic illnesses are a direct result of frustration. It has been said that "the<br />

good die young". The good, by Christian standards, do die young. It is the frustration of our<br />

natural instincts which leads to the deterioration of our minds and bodies.<br />

It has become very fashionable to concentrate on the betterment of the mind and spirit, and to<br />

consider giving pleasure to one's body (the very shell without which the mind and spirit could<br />

not exist) to be coarse, crude, unrefined. AS OF LATE, MOST PEOPLE WHO DEEM THEMSELVES EMANCIPATED<br />

HAVE LEFT NORMALCY ONLY TO "TRANSCEND" INTO IDIOCY! By way of bending their behinds around to<br />

meet their navels, subsisting on wild and exotic diets like brown rice and tea, they feel they<br />

will arive at a great state of spiritual development.<br />

"Hogwash!" says the Satanist. He would rather eat a good hearty meal, exercise his<br />

imagination, and transcend by means of physical and emotional fulfillment. It seems, to the<br />

Satanist, that after being harnessed with unreasonable religious demands for so many<br />

centuries, one would welcome the chance to be human for once!<br />

If anyone thinks that by denying his natural desires he can avoid mediocrity, he should<br />

examine the Eastern mystical beliefs which have been in great intellectual favor in recent<br />

years. Christianity is "old-hat", so those who wish to escape its fetters have turned to so-called<br />

enlightened religions, such as Buddhism. Although Christianity is certainly deserving of the<br />

criticism it has received, perhaps it has been taking more than its share of the blame. The<br />

followers of the mystical beliefs are every bit as guilty of the little humanisms as the<br />

"misguided" Christians. Both religions are based on trite philosophies, but the mystical<br />

religionists profess to be enlightened and emancipated from the guilt-ridden dogma which is<br />

typified by Christianity. However, the Eastern mystic is even more preoccupied than the<br />

Christian with avoiding animalistic actions that remind him he is not a "saint", but merely a<br />

man - only another form of animal, sometimes better, more often worse, than those who walk<br />

on all fours; and who, becuase of his "divine spiritual and intellectual development", has<br />

become the most vicious animal of all!<br />

The Satanist asks, "What is wrong with being human, and having human limitations as well as<br />

assets?" By denying his desires the mystic has come no closer to overcoming compulsion than<br />

his kindred soul, the Christian. The Eastern mystical beliefs have taught people to<br />

contemplate their navels, stand on their heads, stare at blank walls, avoid the use of labels in<br />

life, and discipline themselves against any desire for materialistic pleasure. Nevertheless, I am<br />

sure you have seen just as many so-called desciplined yogis with the inablility to control a<br />

smoking habit as anyone else; or just as many supposedly emancipated Buddhists become just<br />

as excited as a "less aware" person when they are confronted with a member of the opposite -<br />

or in some cases, the same - sex. Yet when asked to explain the reason for their hypocrisy,<br />

these people retreat into the ambiguousness which characterizes their faith - no one can pin<br />

them down if there are no straight answers that can be given!<br />

The simple fact of the matter is that the very thing which has led this type of person to a faith<br />

which preaches abstinence, is indulgence. Their compulsive masochism is the reason for
