Devil Worship in France

I’m currently reading “Devil Worship in France” by Arthur Edward Waite (yep, the tarot guy). It’s a lot of fun. It isn’t about actual Satanism, it’s an extended snarky takedown of Taxil’s hoax (basically a 19th century Satanic panic). However, it’s absolutely worth the read. I never suspected Waite would be such a sassy bitch.

Also, it’s the oldest text I’ve ever seen to make a distinction between Luciferianism and Satanism, so that’s cool (even though I no longer make that distinction for myself).
