I think you may be a fan of DEVO. |You can keep on worshipping yourself and masterbating over a symbol of |Baphomet and hoping real hard that one day you will get laid Is that what Satanists do? I typically masturbate before a symbol (picture/statue) of Kali, actually, but I don't do it in the hopes that I will 'get laid'. I admit of my fascination with coitus and that I sometimes have feelings of being denied by my Abyss, but this is my problem, and I do not wish to burden her with guilt or work some sort of magick to make her lay me. Nor do I wish to 'go out and secure a fuck'. On the other hand, Baphomet is a *wonderful* image over which to masturbate (or engage in any type of sex). The synthesis displayed by that image is perhaps only rivaled by such pictorals as the tarot card 'Art' in the Thoth (Harris-Crowley) deck. I'd love to see a discussion on the various ideas about what Baphomet DOES or SHOULD include, as far as physical characteristics. Levi's version seems a bit overly masculine for my taste. |and I will keep evolving towards divinity, something truely worth |worshipping. Some of us Satanists accept we are divine already and don't worry so much about 'making something worthy of worship'. Our worship is in the revel we take during our sexual indulgence and disciplined labor. We honor the Great Material One through tasting of Hir glory rather than trying to change Hir into something more palatable to our mutant tongues. tyagi The Order of KaOs Under Satan
