Z. deScathach: The statement "Nothing is True, Everything is Permitted" is after all a belief.

Isn't that more or less the entire problem with subjectivity?

I believe that everything is subjective, but that is only my subjective belief?

Yes, it certainly is. In terms of judging anything, Satanism included, it is essentially a subjective exercise. The real question is: Can anything, Satanism included, be objectively observed? My personal opinion is no. Aw shoot, I feel a thread-rot comin' on.....

We're not talking about satanism any more, are we?

Ok, back to the thread - does satanism, as seen through the eyes of LaVey, support the idea of a subjective universe?

Whether the above was taking the piss or not, LaVeyan Satanism is compeltely about living a subjective universe. I don't think there's much room in it for objectivity, to be honest, although one of the 'Satanic Sins' is 'Lack of Perspective'.
