The gods of the right-hand path have bickered and quarreled for an entire age of earth. Each of these deities and their respective priests and ministers have attempted to find wisdom in their own lies. The ice age of religious thought can last but a limited time in this great scheme of human existence. The gods of wisdom-defiled have had their saga, and their millennium hath become as reality. Each, with his own "divine" path to paradise, bath accused the other of heresies and spiritual indiscretions. The Ring of the Nibelungen doth carry an ever-lasting curse, but only because those who seek it think in terms of "Good" and "Evil"-themselves being at all times "Good." The gods of the past have become as their own devils in order to live. Feebly, their ministers play the devil's game to fill their tabernacles and pay the mortgages on their temples. Alas, too long have they studied "righteousness," and poor and incom¬petent devils they make. So they all join hands in "brotherly" unity, and in their desperation go to Valhalla for their last great ecumenical council. "Draweth near in the gloom the twilight of the gods." The ravens of night have flown forth to summon Loki, who hath set Valhalla aflame with the searing trident of the Inferno. The twilight is done. A glow of new light is borne Out of the night and Lucifer is risen, once more to proclaim:
"This is the age of Satan! Satan Rules the Earth!" The gods of the unjust are dead. This is the morning of magic, and un¬defiled wisdom. The FLESH prevaileth and a great Church shall be builded, consecrated in its name. No longer shall man's
salvation be dependent on his self-denial. And it will be known that the world of the flesh and the living shall be the greatest preparation for any and all eternal delights!
REGIE SATANAS!
AVE SATANAS!

In this arid wilderness of Steel and stone I raise up my voice that you may hear. To the East and to the West I beckon. To the North and to the South I show a sign proclaiming: Death to the weakling, wealth to the strong!
2 Open your eyes that you may see, Oh men of mildewed minds, and listen to me ye bewildered millions!
3 For I stand forth to challenge the wisdom of the world; to interrogate the "laws" of man and of "God"!
4 I request reasons for your golden rule and ask the why and wherefore of your ten commands.
5 Before none of your printed idols do I bend in acquiescence, and he who saith "thou shalt" to me is my mortal foe!
6 I dip my forefinger in the watery blood of your impotent mad redeemer, and write over his thorn-torn brow: The TRUE prince of evil-the king of the slaves!
7 No hoary falsehood shall be a truth to me; no stifling dogma shall encramp my pen!
S I break away from all conventions that do not lead to my earthly success and happiness.
9 I raise up in stern invasion the standard of the strong!
10 I gaze into the glassy eye of your fearsome Jehovah, and pluck him by the beard; I uplift a broad-axe, and split open his worm-eaten skull!

Answer me, oh, my love
just what sin have i been guilty of?
tell me how i came to lose your love
please answer me, sweetheart
You were mine yesterday
i believed that love was here to stay
won't you tell me where i've gone astray?
please answer me, my love
If you're happier without me
i'll try not to care
but if you still think about me
please listen to my prayer
You must know i've been true
won't you say that we can start anew?
in my sorrow now i turn to you
please answer me, my love
(if you're happier without me)
(i'll try not to care)
but if you still think about me
please listen to my prayer
You must know (you must know)i've been true (i've been true)
won't you say that we can start anew?
in my sorrow now i turn to you
please answer me, my love
