I don't believe in any God or follow any religion. I think it is possible that some powerful being created the world and all life on it, but I also find the idea that it's all some big chain of random events equally as plausible, perhaps even more so.

Satanism, believe it or not, seems to be the most logical form of organized religion.

Really? I've been discussing Satanism on another forum, one of the posters there made a thread about them being a Satanist and wanted to hear what other people thought about it, though to be honest I'm not sure he really knew what it was all about himself.
His explanation of it was that you live your life purely for yourself, but still believe God exists. You acknowledge that God created the world and everything on it but choose to ignore him and do what you want instead, as well as naming your religion after Satan. I couldn't and still can't understand how somebody can believe God exists but openly defy him. Surely to believe in God and the Devil means accepting that Heaven and Hell exist too, and by ignoring God you are actually condemning yourself to eternal torment in Hell? Then of course there's the fact that the guy who wrote the Satanic Bible (Anton La Vay?) only did it to annoy Christians...
It certainly isn't something that I've looked into in much detail, but the little I have experienced of Satanism didn't seem too logical.
