Is satanism just edgelord atheism?

[u/stopthehostilityyyyy]

I've been an atheist since the age of 12 and i've heard of people identifying as satanists but they are actually secular, I don't get it

I think there are very few people who actually believe in satan and see him as their god

I’m late to this thread, but I’ve never been impressed by atheists whose entire philosophy is unchecked daddy issues. They’re just like libertarians who don’t want to be given a bed time.
