If you have a good father, treat Satan as your would your father but at the soul level. If you have had a best friend, you can treat him as you would your best friend but at the soul level. Becuase Satan is both a Father and a best friend. When I dedicated I felt a presence. Whenever I read Joyofsatan I did too, but when I dedicated I felt like I had settled it, I had let Satan into my heart like those weirdos let that hippie Jewish man into their hearts... I had been wanting to experience what everybody with JoS apparently was and I was so taken in by it I thought, "to hell with it all (no pun in intended), I truly do not care if this is the best or the worst decision in my life, I am so enthralled by the honesty and simple purity of this mysterious way of life I simply must dedicate because no-where else in my religious studies have I felt that true honesty of the soul. If the dedication is real, I will surely know and if it is not, I believe I have a clear understanding of Satan, and I believe he will surely understand if my faith is weak." I surely know now that my faith could not be any stronger in that greatest decision of mine.
Hail Satan
