WE DO NOT SACRIFICE ANIMALS

Across the ages, a harmful myth has kept resurfacing, the idea that all Satanists kill animals, adults, or even children. It still shapes how many people see Satanism today. What matters is recognising that this image is not “fact,” it is the product of Christian alienation and manipulation that distorts what serious, real Satanism actually stands for.

Satan’s Seventh Commandment places profound weight on respect and protection, especially for children and animals, precisely because they embody innocence and purity untouched by the darkness that so often follows humanity. From that perspective, the notion of sacrificing innocent beings in rituals is not only irrational, it is indefensible. It stands in direct opposition to Satan’s teachings. And yet, some individuals still choose to commit such acts, convinced they are pleasing superior demons and earning rewards or wishes in return.

But pause and ask the simplest, most honest question: how could the death, suffering, and agony of innocent beings ever draw in positive energies? It cannot. Bloodshed and cruelty do not elevate anything, they attract negative energies and obscure beings from many origins.

It is also important to be precise about what people try to blur together. Killing animals for consumption is not the same as ritualistic sacrifice. Real Satanism rejects the false argument that because animals are killed in slaughterhouses, sacrificing them in rituals should be considered acceptable. That reasoning has no moral foundation, the two situations are fundamentally different in nature and meaning.

To close, I want to be clear about scope and intent. I speak here for Real Satanism only, and I am not seeking to interfere with the practices of other belief systems. I fully respect the right of others to hold their own beliefs, and in return I expect the same respect for our Satanic branch. Outsiders attempting to dictate or instruct our practices are not welcomed. Every individual should be free to explore and embrace their own path, and through mutual respect, we can build greater understanding across diverse religious communities.

Hail Satan!
