No, for the same reason that I wouldn't do so to any other kind of missionary.

Personally. They just want to tell you that the Lord Satan loves you.

I personally regard Satanic missionaries the same as any other missionary.
Not my cup of tea. This individual charges £25 per minute to hear preaching.

I don't care what religion it is. Disrupting someone in their own home with the aim of converting them is just plain rude. I'd slam the door.

At least you keep it honest.

Missionaries are no longer useful as most people already adhere to one of the several major world religions. And no *shuts door*
“One of the serious problems of planning against Aggie doctrine is that the Aggies do not read their manuals nor do they feel any obligations to follow their doctrine.”

But, that's irrational. Don't you want to hear about the love the Lord Satan has for you and earn a wonderful afterlife in Hell ?



Don't you want to learn about the great noodly heaven with endless beer and food and strippers?

Or go to the cold hell with stale beer and the strippers all have STDs?

Soon the sun will set- is that prophecy? No, it's merely an assertion of faith in the consistency of events.


Remember this Earth. Never forget her, but — never come back. If you come back, you might meet the Archangel at the east end of Earth, guarding her passes with a sword of flame. Space is your home hereafter. It’s a lonelier desert than ours.

I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue!

"Not interested, thank you. Hope you have a nice day." Standard response for folks. Sure, will take a pamphlet if that makes them feel better, but there's no cause to be rude from my perspective. Thank them for their time, politely decline, and let them and you get on with your day.

You will certainly be just as welcome as all those Jehovah Witnesses who I slam the door in the face off.

Mormons on the other hand are useful, I usually put them to work doing my gardens and stacking my wood. I'm sure if you came and demonstrated the love of Lord Satan in a practical way, you would do much better.

If I had someone like that come up to my door, I'd politely refuse and shut it.

Just like with any other missionary or street salesperson.

I'd be rather surprised to find a theistic Satanist rather than an atheistic one who merely utilizes Satan as a metaphor. I'd probably chat with them for a bit. It's occasionally interesting to hear from missionaries, and the missionaries from far less common religious doctrines would seem more likely to be interesting.

Communalist, Social Ecologist, Bioregionalist

This site stresses me out, so I rarely come on here anymore. I'll try to be civil and respectful towards those I'm debating on here. If you don't extend the same courtesy then I'll probably just ignore you.

On Government: Checks and balances and ways of stopping things from happening are the only things that provide a stable government and a stable society.

On Democracy: It is a very neutral thing. It can be the best way of ensuring a reasonable government, or it can lead to genocide in the name of 'the people'.

On NSG: I believe the technical term for you people is "malformed conscience".

On society: Until reason and science become cool again, the "enlightened" who profess both but practice neither will continue to gleefully chip away at the bedrock of human society.

The religion itself being offered would most likely take me aback for a moment, but in the end it'd be a no-thank-you from me.
