Balance by H.P. Synn
There will always be opposites that exist in this society, reason for this is the balance of all things. For each thing that exists there MUST be its opposite that also exists. There MUST be a predator for those that are the hunted, as to not have the predator then there would be an over population of the world of that which we do not want to overpopulate us.
What I mean of balance, is that the Universe depends upon a certain balance of all things, which is why we have the opposites. When this balance is upset, then there is a possibility of destruction, or as some say, "the end of the world". To upset the delicate balance of things is certain to cause damage of all things, for instance, to love all and not experiencing the opposite emotion of hate, will most certainly unbalance a persons live, not to mention make themselves open to their enemies (everyone has them). And to leave themselves open to enemies will lead to destruction caused by other people. On the other hand to experience ONLY hate consumes you in many ways, you only want to think of that hate, you dwell on it, there is no way around it, unless you have the balance of love and hate in your life. To be in complete hate you affect those that are around you, yet, those that only have love within are not able to affect those that have the balance or the hate within them. If they accept that love ONLY then will they be affected by things. To hate all leads to a self destruction like none other, and that is what we, as Satanists, want to avoid.
Light and Darkness are the same manner, the light can overcome the dark, yet the dark can overcome the light, IF there is enough darkness. In the matters of religion, so often I see those that know nothing of the light side of the beliefs, they are all dark, and care not to know anything of the light side of religion. What I mean by light and dark at this time are basically the Right Hand Path and the Left Hand Path. The Right Hand Path, for instance, is that which believes in a supreme deity that rules over all, meaning the beliefs of a Divine Deity (i.e., God, Allah, Elohim, YAHWEH...). By the Left Hand Path I am meaning those that oppose that such belief, those that go up against the norm, that defy the belief that there is one creation and that the Holy Bible is correct in all writings.
There is also the fact of Good and Evil, these in my opinion, are simply concepts or perceptions of the mind, of that which people have taught others to believe that are good and evil. Some think that one person is a evil person if they simply put the self in front of all others, yet, there are those out there that think it is a good thing to do. This particular battle will last until the end of eternity, or until we self-destruct the universe, or even the self. This old fight will never be solved, never be ended, because people will never change, yet, this is part of the balance that must be upheld in all that we do and in the universe. It is necessary.
To fight for that which we believe in is the only way to resolve things, yes, at times there is bloodshed and can be a lot of it. However, this bloodshed is completely necessary to restore the balance. We are the beasts of prey, we want things to go our way, and the problem with this is the fact that others do not see eye to eye with us. This is the way things have to be. We have to move on from the things that are attempting to destroy us, by sometimes even destroying that which is trying to destroy us. It may seem like some silly game, yet it is not. It is called preservation of that which we believe in and that which others believe in.
