Going to the super market I was oblivious to the fact that I was wearing my adorable “Hello Cthulhu” plushy t-shirt.<\/p>\n
A man in front of the super market saw my T-shirt and noticed that little “Hello Cthulhu” had a pentagram on her…er his..er it’s t-shirt.<\/p>\n
He looked at me an asked, “Excuse me… Are you a satanist?<\/i>”<\/p>\n
I thought about the multitude of smart-ass responses that could come to mind… but I was in an odd mood.<\/p>\n
I looked at him curiously… “What is a satanist?<\/i>”<\/p>\n
He looked proudly at me, “Some one who believes in satan.<\/i>”<\/p>\n
Remembering, that I’m raised Jewish, now I was piqued… “Who is satan?<\/i>”<\/p>\n
“Ooh, Prince of Darkness. Harbinger of evil. Steals the souls of mortal men.<\/i>”<\/p>\n
“Is this guy for real?<\/i>”<\/p>\n
“Oh yes.<\/i>”<\/p>\n
“You don’t really believe that do you?<\/i>”<\/p>\n
“Absolutely… you’d better be careful…<\/i>”<\/p>\n
I thought about it. Raised Jewish, I don’t believe in Satan, Hell, purgetory… etc. So I looked at him and said completely honestly…<\/p>\n
“Nope. I’m not a satanist.<\/i>”<\/p>\n
I opted not to point out that between us, only one of us “Believed in Satan” and it wasn’t the occultist in the “Hello Cthulhu” plushy t-shirt.<\/p>\n
I smiled and walked off. He called after to me and to anyone else, “Help the homeless… Have a happy new year.”<\/p>\n
Proud to know I’m not a satanist.. I smile and figure I will help the homeless by having a happy new year.<\/p>\n
Yes.. yes I know. He probably meant “Worship” rather than believe in… But the entire experience was amusing none-the-less.<\/p>\n
P.S. More posts actually coming.<\/p>\n
