• Episode 9: Defending the Faith •

• Host ~ Shea Bilé  •

• Guest Co-Host ~ Sam Mann  •

– On this episode of Deferred Gnosis Podcast:

• How does a Satanist defend himself against an atheist? How does religious/spiritual Satanism hold up against the arguments often employed by non-believers?  We passionately debate the value of faith and devotional religious practice.

• Guest co-host for this episode is Sam Mann. Host of the Steel Legion Podcast.

– We discuss and debate the value of faith:

  • Theistic Satanic belief vs. secular atheism.
  • Conceptions of God from a Satanic perspective.
  • Is religious belief grounded in reality?
  • Is magick necessary? Does it have value? Can it be proven? Why do we even need to?
  • Does faith have value? Is it dangerous?
  • The function of religious belief. Do we need to have evidence? Must we prove our gods/demons are real? Why?
  • The difference between Abrahamic and Satanic apologetics.
  • Religion vs. art vs. music – different impact/power?
  • Transcendental vs. religious experience – is one different/better than the other?
  • Is the Devil of the bible a valid expression of the divine?
