When you hear the term "Satanist," what images spring to mind? Orgiastic midnight rituals of devil worship and animal sacrifice? Scary, dark priests and priestesses casting strange curses upon their enemies?
While there are many sects of Satanism, as there are in Christianity, the organization responsible for founding modern Satanism is called The Church of Satan (CoS). Most CoS members would claim that animal sacrifice and devil worship have no place in their spiritual beliefs.
Founded in 1966 in San Francisco by Anton Szander LaVey, CoS now has thousands of members, though the exact number is hard to pin down, as many members do not wish to be publicly identified.
In general, the primary tenets of Satanism consist of personal responsibility, focus on the pleasures of the here and now, and achievement in society.
CoS members do not worship Satan as a deity similar to the Christian God, but rather see "him" as a dark pagan god in the pre-Christian sense. The pagan Satan represents earthly sensuality and virile power.
