In this episode, Tommy and Lilin discuss "Open Office", a monthly virtual gathering where the Houston Congregation of The Satanic Temple invites both Satanists and the Satan-curious to explore various aspects of Satanism.
Throughout the episode, Tommy and Lilin reflect on how the Satanic Invocation, written by Lucien Greaves and used during city council meetings as well as religious services, touches on themes of personal sovereignty, arbitrary authority, and personal growth.
They share feedback from participants, many new to Satanism, who found the invocation particularly moving and relevant against the backdrop of current social issues and for introspective reflection.
Let us stand now,
unbowed and unfettered
by arcane doctrines
borne of fearful minds in darkened times.
Let us embrace the Luciferian impulse
to eat of the Tree of Knowledge
and dissipate our blissful
and comforting delusions of old.
Let us demand
that individuals be judged for their concrete actions, not their fealty to arbitrary social norms and illusory categorizations.
Let us reason our solutions
with agnosticism in all things,
Holding fast only to that which is demonstrably true,
Let us stand firm
against any and all arbitrary authority
that threatens the personal sovereignty of One or All.
That which will not bend must break,
and that which can be destroyed by truth should never be spared its demise.
It is Done. Hail Satan!
