I have completely given up on Satanism once and for all. For a time I wandered back to it every now and then whenever I wasn't feeling gratified enough by my life, and found a lot of amusement in the more macabre elements found therein, but last night I read something on the subject by a scholar I have a lot of respect for. Jeffrey B. Russell stated something along the lines of saying that Satanism's greatest is evil is that it trivializes evil. It makes light of evil without consideration of people burned by napalm, rape victims, concentration camp survivors, etc. etc. As I read the text I felt a little unnerved by Russell's apparent bias, but I could not deny the reason in his words that resonated within my own breast.

In other news, the storyline for my comic is coming alone nicely. I sat down this morning and worked out the story for the second issue/plotline, involving how two of the main characters start working together. I even dug up an awesome biblical monster, the Behemoth, to use as a villain. All in all, I feel pretty good about where things are going.
