LaVey=bullshit
Crowley=most likely more bullshit
Anything not on the site or from a TRUE HP is probably bull. Demons excluded; they're trusted =p

I found it to be bull. That was many years ago. Read it if you desire, the only thing useful you'll get from it is a bit more understanding of how Laveyians think.

LaVey just made up a bunch of ideas of his own after joining the circus and being witness to their saturday revivals and church programs. He became cynical of religion in general, thus forming the basis of his beliefs. Later one of the associates told him that he had the basis for a religion. And so the "church of satan" was born. :P
Anton himself states that his beliefs have no spiritual or supernatural influence, the information is not from spirits, therefore- the entire religion is just a bunch of his own ideas.
Crowley does a bit better. Crowley did communicate with spirits, and he did bring in relevant information. However, there is a danger is mixing truth with lies, with him.
I communicate directly with my guide, and he has told me that Crowley's first four books were based on information that he received from the spirits. However, after this he distanced himself from those spirits because he started thinking he was greater than them, and as such he did not respect them. So, after this, he lost his connection and all the books he wrote henceforth are from his own mind, which grew increasingly more dulusional as his life went on.
There are still bits and peices of truth after, based on information he received before losing the connection. However, it is all laced heavily with delusion and deceit.

I read that book many years ago while I was still in my teens. Yes, it is primarily bullshit but there is one point that needs to be brought up regarding his so called Le Misse Noir.
The 'Misse Noir' is essentially a watered down version of the Missa Solemnis written in 1970 by a former Roman catholic priest turned Satanist named Wayne Forrest West. Mr. West was promoted up the ranks of the Church Of Satan and became the head of organizing in the Detroit, Michigan area. When Mr. West dissolved the Babylon Grotto in Detroit, LaVey fired off a scathing excommunication against him. Mr. West went as a solo/'spin off' Satanist for some years afterward. (As a side note, it is my belief that Rev. West was one of the only, if not THE only, person ever excommunicated both from the Roman catholic church and the C.O.S. as a priest in both organizations)
I have used the format of his original Missa Solemnis in many magickal workings and more than half of them have worked to one degree or another. Although I never got to meet or communicate directly w/ Mr. West, his Missa Solemnis (as well as the very few fragments that I have found of his other writings) have influenced me greatly over the years/decades.
Hail Satan!
