A SATANIST obsessed with teenage schoolgirls invented a fake gothic society online to groom them for sex in the grounds of Sydney's Rookwood Cemetery. Daniel William Peckham, 24, lured at least three girls, aged from 13 to 17, into the cemetery on his MySpace blog, "Rookwood Gothic Society". A message on the site read: "If you have hang-ups about getting naked ... you are not welcome." Peckham pleaded guilty yesterday to the aggravated sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl and to using the internet to solicit and transmit naked pictures of young girls between 2005 and 2007. The opening day...

ORANGEVALE, Calif. -- A 15-year-old girl who allegedly worships Satan was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of lighting a fire at her Orangevale church. The blaze occurred at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints at the corner of Hazel and Cherry avenues. Christian Pebbles of Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District said the teen made it clear why she started the blaze, which damaged church pews. “She hates the church and she worships the devil,” Pebbles said. “That’s the reason why.” Pebbles said the teen was taken into custody on suspicion of felony arson. “Well, you know, kids sometimes don’t always...

The remains of a 16-year-old boy and three girls aged 16 and 17 were discovered in a pit near the home of the alleged ringleader in the Yaroslavl region.

OBAMA: LUCIFER IS MY HOMEBOYSeptember 17, 2008 It's another election season, so that means it's time for Democrats to start uttering wild malapropisms about the Bible to pretend they believe in God! In 2000, we had Al Gore inverting a Christian parable into something nearly satanic. Defending his nutty ideas about the Earth during one of the debates, Gore said: "In my faith tradition, it's written in the book of Matthew, where your heart is, there is your treasure also." And that, he said, is why we should treasure the environment. First of all, people who say "faith tradition" instead...

Satanist puts faith in system His ex-wife wants judge to force him to take daughters to Christian church By Manya A. Brachear | Chicago Tribune reporter July 9, 2008 ROCHESTER, Ind.—The T in Satan's name inked on Jamie Meyer's left leg is drawn to look like an upside-down cross. The crucifix suspended above his bed hangs upside down too. Meyer's ex-wives say he also has turned their children's lives upside down since he joined the Church of Satan—an organization that eschews spirituality and celebrates man's selfish desires. One of Meyer's ex-wives is citing his religious affiliation as the main reason...

Many of you have heard conservative traditionalists rant about "The Gay Agenda." But no one really knows what that agenda is. Well, I've discovered a copy, and I will summarize it for you: 8am - Protein shake 9am - Work out at the gym 10am - Rape straight men, give pornography to children, bulldoze all churches and destroy the sanctity of marriage (or what's left of it after Fox's "Married By America.") Hey, wait a minute... Some of the most important people in my life are gay men and lesbian women. And I can assure you, being gay does not...

Protesters can claim one more case where protesting has proven effective. The Hollywood remake of the comedy “Oh God!” planned for this summer will not be going anywhere soon. Last fall, Hollywood announced with some fanfare the news that Jerry Weintraub Productions would be filming the remake which portrays God as a wise-cracking cranky individual full of defects and imperfections. As if that were not bad enough, the so-called Supreme Being was to be played by the avowed lesbian talk show host Ellen DeGeneres! That was before thousands of protest flyers went out nationwide. Prior to the production of this...

The Ten Sins of the Devil By Amin Emilio Aun Joven I grant this essay to the public domain God’s greatest opponent here on Earth, aside from the Antichrist and the False Prophet, is the Devil. The Devil was brought down to earth because of his inequities and sins in the physical heaven to enact struggle on this plane of existence. Even though the Devil believes himself to be free he has always been a slave to God’s will and judgement. The Devil is an instigator of struggle and evolution. No matter how much God and his followers hate him...

Ever since he was 12, Daniel Romano has cut a noticeable figure around Middle Village, a working class part of Queens. Mr. Romano, 20, who calls himself a Satanist, stands out, with his blue-tinted bouffant hairdo, his black clothing and fingernails, and the prominent crucifix, worn upside down. Mr. Romano has long been teased for dressing like a "gothic kid" or simply a "goth," in a community with small homes, neat lawns and populated with many Roman Catholics. But in recent weeks, two local teenagers began fixating on Mr. Romano, calling him names including "Satan worshiper," "baby sacrificer" and "hooker...

Mary Mason talked so fast I could barely keep up. Then again, if I understood half of what she said, I’d be writing Java, not English, and making boatloads more money. Mary is chief operating officer of Missing Lynx Systems, a hi-tech start-up in California’s Silicon Valley - for now. She’s looking to relocate the nascent company, searching for a manufacturing site. Why? Well, she explained, "you can’t go to a trade show without representatives ... explaining how much money they’ll give you and how much tax they’ll waive if you move there." Mary and I talked Sunday, after she’d...

<p>'Tis the time of disemboweled gourds and spooky black cats and sickly terrifying vice presidential ghosts, of dressing up the wee ones in carefully branded molded-plastic heavily trademarked Disney-owned characters and sending them out into the 'hood with a flashlight and a cute plastic pumpkin bucket and a small semiautomatic weapon and some nice candy-corn mace.</p>

ISTANBUL, Turkey, Oct 28, 2002 (AP WorldStream via COMTEX) -- Residents of a northwestern Turkish town threw stones at an Austrian tourist who was dressed in a black cloak and had piercings on his face because confused locals thought the man was a Satanist, police said Monday.

The murder of a 12-year-old boy at the hands of an occult fanatic could not easily have been prevented, according to an inquiry into child protection measures.

The report made 59 recommendations and highlighted a lack of communication between social, mental health and child protection services, and police and the Crown Prosecution Service.
