Can someone be a practitioner of magick/occult while being an atheistic, LaVeyan Satanist?

Post by Super_Force »

LaVeyan (atheistic) Satanism is more of my style man. However, with that worldview, is it still sensible to be a practitioner of magick? Will it even work? Does it even make sense?

Thanks.

Certainly. I can't see any reason why not.
After all, I too did consider myself to be an atheist, once upon a time.
Things we discover and uncover along the path - may or may not change our views, occasionally even in a whole 180 degrees.

Basing occult practices upon beliefs seems rather risky.

Better perhaps to test for personal gods (theism) or a hands-off creator (deism) - if indeed they are mutually exclusive options.

I prefer not to tread on the toes of others that may be bigger than I am.
