I've been interested in Spiritual Satanism since mid 2011, but only recently performed the initiation ritual where I dedicated my soul to Father Satan. I'm a bit worried though, as I have always found myself interested in the different ancient mythologies (i.e: Greek, Roman, Norse, Egyptian mythology etc). It's essentially just that I have an interest in the ancient myths and stories associated with those religions, as I myself am an aspiring writer. Is this okay? Is it alright to be interested in the history and stories of other religions if I don't believe in them and am dedicated to Satan? Because I also find that the history of the Roman Catholic Church very interesting, even though I dislike Catholicism and Christianity and find it to be utter rubbish and run by the power-hungry. My main interest in this history is looking at Henry VIII's separating the Church of England from Rome, and Pope Alexander VI's papal rule. I simply find these two historical figures to be interesting as people, and don't sympathise with their religious beliefs. Is this okay, or am I offending/upsetting Satan by showing an interest in these things?
I hope this all makes sense, and as I've said, I'm relatively new so please be nice!
