  1. PENTAGONAL REVISIONISM: A FIVE-POINT PROGRAM
  2. by Anton Szandor LaVey ©1988
  3. In recent years, we’ve wasted far too much time explaining that Satanism
  4. has nothing to do with kidnapping, drug abuse, child molestation, animal
  5. or child sacrifice, or any number of other acts that idiots, hysterics or
  6. opportunists would like to credit us with. Satanism is a life-loving,
  7. rational philosophy that millions of people adhere to. Now we’re ready for
  8. something that goes quite a few steps beyond just explaining our principles.
  9. Every revisionist movement needs a set of goals/guidelines that are clear,
  10. concrete, and that will effect significant changes.
  11. The following Five-Point Program reflects attitudes which allow others to
  12. decide whether they wish to align themselves with Satanism or not. Each is
  13. necessary for Satanic change to take place. When asked what we’re “doing,”
  14. here’s the answer:
  15. 1. Stratification — The point on which all the others ultimately rest. There
  16. can be no more myth of “equality” for all—it only translates to “mediocrity”
  17. and supports the weak at the expense of the strong. Water must be allowed to
  18. seek its own level without interference from apologists for incompetence. No
  19. one should be protected from the effects of his own stupidity.
  20. 2. Strict taxation of all churches — If churches were taxed for all their
  21. income and property, they’d crumble overnight of their own obsolescence,
  22. and the National Debt would be wiped out as quickly. The productive, the
  23. creative, the resourceful should be subsidized. So long as the useless and
  24. incompetent are getting paid, they should be heavily taxed.
  25. 3. No tolerance for religious beliefs secularized and incorporated into law
  26. and order issues — to re-establish “Lex Talionis” would require a complete
  27. overturning of the present in-justice system based on Judeo-Christian ideals,
  28. where the victim/defender has been made the criminal. Amnesty should be
  29. considered for anyone in prison because of his alleged “influence” upon the
  30. actual perpetrator of the crime. Everyone is influenced in what he or she
  31. does. Scapegoating has become a way of life, a means of survival for the unfit.
  32. As an extension of the Judeo-Christian cop-out of blaming the Devil for
  33. everything, criminals can gain leniency, even praise, by placing the blame
  34. on a convenient villain. Following the Satanic creed of “Responsibility to
  35. the responsible,” in a Satanic society, everyone must experience the consequences
  36. of his own actions—for good or ill.
  37. 4. Development and production of artificial human companions — The forbidden
  38. industry. An economic “godsend” which will allow everyone “power” over someone
  39. else. Polite, sophisticated, technologically feasible slavery. And the most
  40. profitable industry since T.V. and the computer.
  41. 5. The opportunity for anyone to live within a total environment of his or her
  42. choice, with mandatory adherence to the aesthetic and behavioral standards of
  43. same — Privately owned, operated and controlled environments as an alternative
  44. to homogenized and polyglot ones. The freedom to insularize oneself within a
  45. social milieu of personal well-being. An opportunity to feel, see, and hear that
  46. which is most aesthetically pleasing, without interference from those who would
  47. pollute or detract from that option.
  48. This is the encapsulated version of the current thrust of Satanic advocacy. So
  49. when someone asks you, “Well, what do Satanists do?”, you will be qualified to
  50. tell him.
