  • Gang members

  • awww you mean that pussy god did not protect his own house LOL

  • This video is bullshit. More propaganda to make people who are into the Occult look bad... Whoever started the fire and painted the symbols, first off, didn't even get them right...secondly....they weren't legitmate Satanists... They were a bunch of youths playing around with the chrisitan idea of the character Satan which is a totally different thing.

  • the bible was in spanish

  • idiots, the pentagram was rightside-up!

  • @blackhartDE It was only aboutt half of a pentagram. The circle was missing. And yes it was up-side right. But then theres also the symbols that go at each point in the star.

  • Check out the Aimed At America 3 video describing New York in the Bible.

  • guys, that's not what we do. those are just asshole kids.

  • Devil worshipers found new ways of entertainment.

    This is not the way of Satanism, we don't do stuff like that. Seriously. Not cool.

  • how mature... kids these days...

  • good for yall

  • This wasn't done by satanist the five pointed star is not point down this was done by skinheads.

  • such a sad thing to do.

  • hahahahaha burn the churches and bring them to reality god is dead and god will not come back like in the fairy tails from your bible

  • @1xxBITTERSWEETxx1 WHat a shame :(.......

  • @MKW2011 what thast i have the right to hate your little god and belive what i ant too or is it a shame to have freedom of speech

  • @1xxBITTERSWEETxx1 It really dnt effect me as much because I know as the person I am, Im doing whats right. Im making right choices to live a right life.And even if God may not possibly exist, the holy bible taught us how to live a near perfect life unlike Lucifer. Im sorry if this offend you but, if you are doing demonic activites, theres a HIGH possibility you MIGHT burn in hell for eternity buddy. Juss sayin..So just be careful,ok? No hard feelings.

  • @MKW2011 first of all im not satanic im athiest so i dont do demonic things and second off have you heard what the church of satan preaches it shows us how to live with each other and i have never heard them give a negative infulence to any body and if im gonna burn in hell well la dee da i dont care and im not scared cuz i already lived thru hell and it formed me to be a semi good person

  • @1xxBITTERSWEETxx1 Look, I may not know your life, but I am sorry for whatever difficult times you went through. Really I am. But, it may be "hell" to you now, but the REAL hell is like non comparison to anything on this earth. Trust me. It is a horrible place to go for all eternity. Don't you want to be somewhere else, in a better place then that?

  • @MKW2011 the real hell is this world you live not knowing whats gonna happen we feel the pain of all our family members we wake up not knowing wats gonna happen and all happiness comes with the price of pain and sadness like a new mother loving her child to bits and then her kid grows up only to disapoint her

  • @1xxBITTERSWEETxx1 Look man I'm telling you. It may be "hell" here now in this world(i agree), but the HELL below us....-sigh-...indescribable man. :(

  • @MKW2011 there is no other hell this is the only hell there is and will ever be

  • @1xxBITTERSWEETxx1 Well to close this down, I'll believe what I believe and you do the same. Case closed. Even though we may not accept it,but always respect it.

  • WAKE UP real lovers of Christ, we are truly soldiers. This is not a fairy tale. Believing in spiritual things is a must. We should even more so than the physical, because it holds meaning. That means not believing everything we see and hear or are told. It means we are to only trust in the urgings of our hearts by the holy spirit and nothing else, and I do mean nothing else. Things are soon going to change. Everyone stay prayed up and love one another no matter what.

  • All I know is that individuals better begin to believe in the spiritual instead of just dwelling on the physical. It needs 2b clear that just as we have entertained angels, we have entertained demons as well. Get 2 the roots of Gods word. Listen 2 what the pastor is saying & take it for what it is. "He doesn't understand, it makes no sense, they feed & clothe the community, the community is happy with them" So u tell me what human is hell bent on doing damage like this. NONE, not even in anger.

  • i'm atheist, but i don give a crap. It's peoples right to believe in what they want and be what they want we have no right to put down others just because they dont believe in the same things as we do. People shouldn't go around destroying churches or any other places of worship because just think. How would you like it if someone did that to you. Youd hate it im sure. Be more open minded. Im atheist but ive had a friend ask me to church and ive gone out of respect. Be respectful not hateful.

  • YEAH!! FUCK YOU GOD!!! THE DARK LORD LUCIFER WILL RISE FROM HELL TO DEFEAT YOU!!!

  • @l4dhunter200 HELL FUCKING YES !! HAIL SATAN !!!!!!!!!

  • @l4dhunter200 you have my support :D

  • I'm an agnostic but this is fucked up! just because you don't agree with their views doesn't mean you could go in and violate them like this.

  • Christians never burned anything. I mean, except witches and maybe the occasional guy who dared claim that the Earth went around the Sun.

  • @DarwinsChihuahua White people overthrown native Americans and enslaved the blacks does that mean all whites are bad? No. I'm sure there are many who have claimed to be christian and committed crimes but not every christian does that.

  • The church of lies... Defaced and defiled... Ultimate blaspheme of the king of jews himself... Jesus Christ who was rightfully nailed and murdered...

  • ..to all satanic....God forgive all of you this time.....but soon....God will Kick ur ass..... FuCkin assHole satanic people.......

  • defacing & stealing from a church???

    welp, their first class tickets to hell are booked.

  • hahahahah lol this shit haliriuos

  • ajakajkajakjakj thats just so stupid, look the graffiti looks like made it by a 2 years old kid, fucking pussy

  • The problem was arson and destruction of other peoples property, thats it.

    People who pretend to worship the invisible non exsistant are all fucked up.

    I wish they would all keep it to themselves at home and just try to be decent human beigs for a change.

  • Not a satanic symbol the pentacle most likely nazis

  • remember we are the church they can vandalize all they want but that will not silence us...

    R3B3L for Christ

  • @BMXecan AMEN

  • hahahahahahah this shit is funny

  • @fatboysbaby hows dis shit funny i think this is pretty fuked up

  • i am a satanist and a teenage tagger but i do it for the art and i dont fucking vandalize walls or insult other religions

  • @tichergeorge As a Catholic I say you are making an important point here. Taggers make art to be seen in public; not to vandalize. There is a big difference.

    It is also true that legitimate occultists do not insult other religions; they want & give respect. So when I see things like this, it is either a diversion tactic - or by someone who is not into the occult. "Fake', in a sense.

  • satan knows his time is short. soon he will be in the bottomless pit.

    im glad im not a church burner on judgement day. god does have a temper

  • Those homophobic shit bags got wrecked.

  • sigh... all you "satanists" really think you're sooo cool huh. Well, I love all of you & hope you apply some reason to your perspectives. If any of you would like a debate, please let me know.

  • @megaead69 We don't think we're "cool" and why would someone want to be? It's just war religion is there it causes war I would think before you speak next time

  • Ha ha LMAO Fuck Jehove and Jesus. Stupid christians. All Hail SATAN!

  • LOL

  • I draw pentagrams and shit all the time and I'm not a satanist. I see them as symbols against Christianity not satanic symbols. Religion sucks and is too restrictive. 666

  • that shit is hilarious because none of that shit exist just lonely people being scared and trying to find a cr8er!!!

  • Satanists..........

    Well done, keep up the good work.

    Lets purge religion from our country.

  • This is the type of thing that makes others so misunderstood. I would rather follow the Satanic bible then the word of God but I know there is no such thing as Satan or the Devil. The Satanic bible if the word of man and common sense which is why it's looked down upon by religious people. These people should be beat to an inch of their lives.

  • stupid horrible people the devils is cool but it makes him look stupid so fuck the toys that did it wish I had the money to don8 god rules so stupid!!!!

  • if that was my church id look for those fuckers n beat the shit out of them! i know its not the good thing to do but id do it " forgive me god"

  • @scheme1mcpk the power of believing that all your sins can be erased after you mutter god's name...

  • The Nazi's strike again

  • There's no god or Satan so it's a lose lose senario

  • it is not graffiti graffiti is art that is called defacing of property you my see graffiti art on the walls or on buildings side but why on the inside

  • @TheLowlife22 Good point! As this is inside, it makes me suspicious. Perhaps its just to throw off the cops. Maybe an inside job.

    Graffitti is on the outside of buildings as art; for all to see. This is intended for a very specific target. Either as a 'red herring' or as a 'message' for a particular person.

    Clue: many occultists would not want to even set foot in a church. 

  • aaahhh!!!!FRICK!!IF I ONLY HAVE THAT MUCH MONEY!!!I'LL HELP!

  • Obviously NOT Satan-worshipper vandals trying to make the biggest "scary" impact. The pentacle is a Wiccan religious symbol, with beautiful significance, nothing at all to do with Satan. Anyone who knows about actual Satanists knows they wouldn't do this-no reason for it.

  • @ cylencce

    When they spray paint 'Hail Satan' and '666' on the walls, its usually a dead giveaway as to whom the culprits are.

  • Yeah, messed up, confused, violent, possibly drug abusing young people. What more inappropriate thing to spray paint on a church? Doesn't mean they "worship Satan," they can't even get their symbols straight-they're straight from stupid teen movies.

  • Teenagers no doubt.

  • real satanist would not do this ti must be some kid

  • of course this happened in the Bronx.

  • Unlucky for them the number of the beast is 616! FACT!

  • no!!!!!its 666

  • Look it up! it's 616!

  • It is black metal fans

  • Sounds like some idiot kids trying to get a rise out of them to me and not actual satanists. Still, at least nobody was hurt, you can't really say that about the hate crimes committed against gay people or the uganda situation for instance.

  • i was thinkin the same thing....

  • Satanist cults are an urban legend. This is just some teenage jerkoffs.

  • @Nilopollis i have to disagree where i live there is real and very rich satanic cults and they are freaking crazy

  • @Nilopollis

    No satanists are real O_o

  • Satan's always gettin the bum rap.

    Those stupid punks who did this are just part of the ever growing hordes of "Wannabe Evildoers" with their hand signs and stupid tattoos and dirty band shirts.

    Look at me! I'm Evil! Satan rulz! Hail Satan!

    They will be the ones cleaning the porta potties in Hell.

    It's like this, Jesus and Satan are Best Bros.

    They're a couple of real pranksters.

    They are playing The Divine Prank of all time on this world.

    You BETTER believe it!!!

  • PS

    You shmear feces not graffiti AP dingbat

  • how so gandhiablo??

  • How so what, dear?

  • Real Satanic stars point down. Whoever did this is just a hate-monger.

  • I'll be praying too and you can best believe whoever is responsible for this will be exposed and recompense will be received.

    Jesus is Lord!!! And every knee will bow and every tongue will confess.

  • hes not scared becus the devil doesnt exist

    same goes for g o d

  • Sign of the times....

  • just punk ass niggers, not satanic followers, i mean even they wouldn't be so dumb

  • Newfie4646:

    Definitely not satanists. Probably a bunch of rebellious kids up to no good. They didn't even spray paint an inverted pentagram correctly. That's an upright pentacle more commonly used by Wiccans. Reminds me of when I see nazi swastikas painted the wrong way.

  • it was caused by hispanic haters, Lou Dobbs followers.

    the satanic signs are just a disguise, trying to mislead nypd.

    the pentagram, to be satanic must be inverted too.

  • Let us forgive the foolish souls who have committed this fruitless act...

    ...We are Christians; we will carry on, and rebuild our foundations with even more fraternity than realized hitherto...

    ...Jesus forgives those who have sinned...

    ...and welcomes there salvation at any time...

    ...Let us remember that it is our family and friends, as well as all of our Christian brothers and sisters, that truly hold value...

    ...we can repair burnt wood.

  • As Obama, Clinton, Rahm Emanuel would say. Don't let a good crisis go to waist. I wonder how those wonderful words of wisdom will help these folks.

  • It wasn't satanists. Usually satanist rotate the pentagram to look like a horned creature. That is the seal of Solomon. It's even on the Moroccan flag. The upside down cross is not even satanic. It was St.Peter who wished to be crucified upside down.

  • That sucks for the followers of that church. It's good that no one was hurt. That doesn't seem very Satanic. It just looks like a bunch of teenagers did it or something.

  • teen morons

  • yes

  • MUSLIMS DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • oh no! our church is burned down so now we can't worship christ! what are we going to do!?!?!

    haha, that pastor wants god to smite the arsonists. what a bad ass.

    KING DIAMOND!!!! METAAAAAAAAAAL!

  • The arsonists are apparently unfamiliar with the history of these symbols. Though they are obviously not "official" Satanists, I wouldn't be surprised if they were part of the growing group of pop Satanists that are out there.

  • naw, these are more likely done by punk kids (hence the symbols used).

    Like I said, I don't believe, like, or want a thing to do with God, but I wouldn't burn a church done.

  • I agree they probably are some "punk kids", but I don't see how that excludes them from being self-proclaimed Satanists.

  • well they obviously werent some satanic arsonists.

  • lol that was not a satanic symbol.

    no real satanist would draw a wiccan symbol. that's stupid

  • Very sick people..I do hope these people are found, and brought to justice.

  • A proper satanist would have drawn a pentogram not a pentocol which is a wiccan symbol. This is amature just vandals and arsonist

  • That is a pentagram ("penta" = "five", "gram" = "symbol", "penta-gram" = symbol of five, as in the five points of the star). A "pentacle" is not a symbol at all, but a kind of amulet.

  • There are satanists and there is satanism which actually happen to be 2 diffrent believes. 1Has to do with Devil worship and such and the other is more of a philosophy with actually nothing to do with christidom. I forget which believes which.

    To me it just seems like some punks who wanted to vandalize a church but i could be completely mistaken.

  • Atheist, were you one of the arsonists?

  • No. Were you Trucker?

  • find your arsonists in the nearest mosque

  • Possible, but unlikely.

  • How stupid.

    Satanic morons believe in Satan himself,

    Yet are against Christianity?

    It was Christian bible who mention Lucifer (Satan), so how can you believe in Lucifer yet ignore the bible at the same time?

    Dumb ass idiots.

  • Gee.. They didn't even paint the pentagram upside down? Who are they? White witches? lol ;)

  • Oh yeah you're right they did paint the pentegram the wrong way. Hmm thats interesting.

  • Like I said before, these are pop Satanists. They probably got most of their information from Dungeons and Dragons, Black Metal, and/or disreputable websites.

  • this is messed up. we are in the end times

  • Ah, considering what Christians suffered under Nero, I am going to have to be presented with something a lot more horrific than this to be convinced that we live in the "End Times".

  • ye, but there s a growing hatred towards christians in the US.

  • Hatred towards Christianity is not the same as hatred towards Christians, but yeah this is more of an attack against people than an attack against ideas. If you attack ideas, nobody has to collect insurance.

  • Which is because fundies keep getting crazier and stupider, not because we live in "end times"

    People were claiming we're living in the end times thousands of years ago

    this is no different

  • The reason why its been claim that the end time is near is just as prophecies get fufill it gets us closer each time to the end.

  • That's bull. Again something people have been claiming for centuries. The "prophecies" in the bible are so incredibly vague that anyone could claim they're coming true at any time and attach modern events to biblical ones and claim it's "symbolism" as easily as I could just make something up on the spot.

  • also, its interesting that people get so upset about someone burning a church, how many homes (think: villages) did the church burn in its heyday? I say karma is a bitch.

  • signorell-

    so are you

  • Um, this IS the Church's heyday. There are more Christians alive today than there ever have been, yet I don't know of any villages being burned down by the Church nowadays.

    If by "heyday", you mean the late Middle Ages, when admittedly horrendous atrocities were being committed by a small elitist group of "Christians" wielding self-proclaimed authority, then yeah, I guess it must be karma.

  • By heyday I was referring to the various inquisitions, witch trials and crusades, don;t try to marginalize those atrocities by saying it was only a small group of people and everyone else was just "following orders", thats seems to be what your trying to accomplish.

    Today, in the US at least, the church has less authority then pre-revolutionary war years, you don't get beheaded for working on a sunday, or burned at the stake if someone says your a witch.

  • I never said "everyone else was just following orders". The facts are these: Take the inquisition, for instance. The entire enterprise was carried out by a relatively small group of clergy. As for witch trials, the entire puritan era claimed the lives of a mere 50 people accused of witchcraft. That is certainly 50 too many, but it is hardly the gigantic holocaust people often characterize it as.

  • As for the Crusades, these were hardly a one-way street. Many Christians died during that period at the hands of Muslim warriors. Not to mention the fact that the European Crusaders ultimately lost that war and went home.

    As for today, Christians make up 80% of the population in the United States alone. This country would be a theocracy if we wanted it to be, but we don't, so it isn't.

  • you didn't say that but its exactly what your implying.

    The Salem witch trials is only one example, look up the spanish inquisition.

  • The Spanish inquisition was carried out by a minority of radical clergy, not by Christians at large. And besides, most, if not all, of its victims were fellow Christians who happened to deviate from the tenants of the Roman Catholic Church at that time. Proto-Protestants, if you will.

  • meh so your an apologist, I could say the same thing about nazism, oh well it was just one guy...

    Obviously i am aware that in most large organizations there are generally a few people that give the orders, but the bottom line is its the fanatical beliefs of the system that allowed rape, torture, execution, slavery etc. to go on as normal because they "believed" they were doing gods work. read leviticus, it goes into detail about how a good christian should keep his slaves, etc.

  • Actually, Nazism is an excellent parallel. The Nazi party made up a very small percentage of the German population, but took control through various means even though they were in the extreme minority.

    But either way, you are still missing my point. This "minority of radical clergy" does merely describe the guys at the top of the food chain, but the whole enchilada. The vast majority of Christendom had absolutely nothing to to with the Inquisition, even in a subservient capacity.

  • As for the "fantastical beliefs", it was an appeal to those same beliefs which eventually ended the Inquisition, as people began to realize that this radical contingent of clergy were not carrying out the doctrines of the faith which they espoused.

    As for Leviticus, it says nothing about what a good Christian should do. It was written over 400 years before Christianity was ever conceived.

  • No i understood your point from the beginning, you don;t seem to understand that a ruler cannot remain in power without a strong base of support, like you mentioned thats what ended the crusades, but only because they found that the wars had nothing to do with god and everything to do with land ownership, that hardley justifies their participation.

    Leviticus has lots of passages of god telling the isrealites how to behave in order to serve him correctly.

  • That idea of a ruler needing a strong support base is directly contradicted by history. During Hitler's reign only a tiny percentage of Germany's population were members of the Nazi party. And not even all Nazis approved of what Hitler was doing. Just look at Oskar Schindler.

    So no, a leader does not always need the support of his people to get things done. And condemning all of Christendom for the Inquisition is like condemning all of Germany for the Third Reich.

  • And no, I never said "that's what ended the Crusades". I said the *Inquisition* was ended when people began to realize what was really going on. The Crusades were ended when the European Crusaders were simply defeated.

    And as for Leviticus, Israelites certainly but it never even mentions Christians.

  • GregoriusTheBrown:

    What about the Crusades? 200 years of murder in the name of Christianity.

  • takotheoktopus:

    What about the Crusades? They were started because Muslims, who had recently taken over the Holy Land from its Jewish and Christian inhabitants, were attacking men and women who were making pilgrimages to Jerusalem. As for the 200 years, we aren't talking about constant fighting here. Different Crusades were launched at different times intermittently throughout that period. And the Muslims were hardly defenseless. They did win, after all.

  • you are really stupid even the most moronic historian can figure out through a Google search that only 3% of the worlds wars were rooted in religion

    and fcktard one of the largest genocides in history was carried out against the Orthodox Church by Stalin in order to enforce the doctrine of atheism

    yep violence murder and torture in the name of indoctrinating atheism- a belief system you cannot even prove

  • yes, but the killing wasn't done because of a disbelief in gods. If you know anything about Stalin you know he was a power hungry dictator. Nobody kills anyone because they don't believe in god. There are a lot of other factors involved. BUT if someone flies a plane into a building because they believe they are doing gods will...that is something quite different.

  • lol, thanks for the brilliant insight, i don;t know any historians that use google search for reference, theres these things called books, you and gregorius should try using them.

    what IS the doctrine of atheism exactly mr wizard? noone goes to war or kills people because they don;t believe in something, thats like saying stalin killed all those people because he was a non-astrologer.

    he attacked the church because he saw them as a threat, nothing is done in the name of atheism.

  • You're right. There are these things called books, and Gregorius DOES read them. That's probably how he knows more about these important historical periods than what one can read in random magazine articles.

  • What about the fact that only recently, religious people from the U.S. went to uganda and supported a bill that would have gays killed, then after they came back to the U.S. they tried to deny all responsibility when if it wasn't for them it never would have happened.

    At least nobody got hurt in this situation, but in Uganda it could destroy a lot of lives.

  • WerewolfOfTheWater:

    What religious people?

    What bill?

    If you want to make an argument like that, it would behoove you to mention a few specifics.

  • Watch or read the news sometime or read my other comments

  • None of your other comments on this page even mention this, much less go into any more detail. And citing "the news" is just plain absurd.

    You made a claim about something done by "religious people". If you want to be taken seriously, the very least you should do is tell us which religious people you are referring to.

  • Look up "the family" and the anti-homosexuality bill in uganda. I don't feel I should have to update you on current events

  • You have got to be kidding me.  You are making an argument, but you refuse even to describe what it is you are talking about? So much for being taken seriously.

  • lol, god must have been too busy answering important prayers to intervene here, totally understandable.

    At least the minister forgave the (obviously non-satanic cult members, idiot media) kids that did this as I am sure churches have very good insurance, why have faith when theres low deductables?

  • @signorelli21 maybe he just thought of letting humanity a chance to take care of themselves.

  • or maybe he is just imaginary.

  • lol

  • signorell-

    any faith is better than you, who has none

  • Actually atheists don't worship anything, thats what makes us sane.

    But thats not the point here, some church (which is just anouther building) got burned by some punk kids, boo hoo, there would be less concern if this happened to a homeless shelter or a hospital.

  • You wouldn't feel that way if it was your house... jackass.

  • if it was my house they would have been shot, by me.

    maybe next time they will invest in an alarm.

  • If you were home you would have tried to shoot them.

    Do you think that someone was at the church when this happened?

    ...Jackass

  • maybe it was an inside job, they did mention 300 dollars...

  • What about the 300 dollars makes it appear to be an inside job? Offering plates aren't exactly top secret.

  • your a dick, just like any other dick

  • agreed, for the record though it was ARSONISTS that burned down the church, not atheists.

    its interesting how quickly you christians resort to insulting people you disagree with, must be your superior christian morals.

  • I am an agnostic stupid- it is interesting how you go out of your way to intentionally flame the people who worshipped in this building and like the dick you are pointedly state "just like any other building".

    Personally I am tired of all the fcktard atheists who go around being more interested in other people's beliefs then they themselves are. I have never met a person who believes in God more interested in religion than the arrogant stunted atheists are.

  • yes i am a dick, thank you for pointing out the obvious.

    And it is just anouther building isn't it? oh thats right, we should make special considerations for a persons religious beliefs even if they are completely unfounded and rediculous, we should just keep the fact that those beliefs have cost millions of people their lives to ourselves because after all, things are different now.

    Being agnostic means you can't figure out what you believe, impressive.

  • Religion is Poison and kills everyone and everything it touches.

    If we expect to survive as a species we must leave such silly, filthy and amoral superstitions behind.

    Time to give up the crutch and move on.

  • When will atheists stop these horrible crimes. First the holocaust, Stalin's Gulags, then this.

  • there is a difference between atheists and satanists...

  • wow. Don't talk cause your making your self look like an idiot. Don't take that as insult take it as advise.
