The following is a right of reply to the article 'PBS under fire again after interview promoting Luciferianism' which was published on this portal on 30 April.
Firstly, I would like to commend the tremendous work Rev. Patrick has been doing to help spread Luciferianism around the world, despite living in a society that is entirely (and virulently) anathema to spiritual or religious autonomy. His strength and bravery should stand as an inspiration to every Luciferian the world over!
To those who do not yet know, I converted to Judaism over a couple of years' time and had passed the Church of Lucifer and thus, Luciferianism as it stands, over to Reverend Patrick.
Most recently Reverend Patrick was a guest on Maltese television to speak about Luciferianism and he did so with all the tact and grace that in my opinion would have made Reverend Stills himself a proud man! On the heels of his appearance, of course there was backlash by those who would be most affected by any form of rise in spiritual or religious autonomy in Malta (or the world for that matter), the Catholics.
When a member of the Catholic Priesthood proclaimed that Luciferianism has any link to Nazism, it must be stated that this is merely a projection of what Catholicism has had going on all along. What's next, for them to claim Luciferians in the priesthood abuse children? Or maybe that we're antisemitic, or hate pagans? If I didn't know better, I would think that the church father listened to and read nothing on true Luciferianism and instead looked in a mirror and projected.
As for the claim that Luciferian are Nazis, one of the first international wings of the Church of Lucifer that I even initiated was in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, led by Deacon Paulo who was dating a black man, this was in around 1998. My own sons are on the autism spectrum of which Nazism killed all children with birth defects... and several of my best friends are Transgender and have been for many years. Bear in mind, not every Luciferian is as open minded as the next, some may be downright closed minded to a point (Free will and freedom of thought), but Nazism and Luciferianism do not mix.
I loved and still love Luciferians and Luciferianism and the occult, and yet I am fearful of what the Catholic church is capable of and what their priesthood does and has done to the innocent. As a Jew both ethnically and a practicing Jew I have never felt fearful of my friends and brothers/sisters from the occult and we still love and treat each other the same as always, with kindness and respect, but I have gotten hate from Christian friends (not all), mostly Catholic when they have found out.
If it were not for the occult, spending 30 plus years heavily invested, I would not have had the spiritual freedom to explore Judaism and the Kabballah, and so I will vehemently defend the occult and left-hand path to my dying day, against those who would lie against it. I could not personally let this stand and had to write this response.
