I recently wrote an essay exploring why I believe science and religion are inherently incompatible at a fundamental level. This isn’t just about creationism vs. evolution. It’s about truth-seeking, evidence, and dogma.
As a LaVeyan Satanist, I approach this from a position that prioritizes rationality, indulgence, and self-honesty over faith and obedience. The essay challenges the popular narrative that the two can peacefully coexist without contradiction.
I’d love to hear opposing views or additions, whether you agree, disagree, or want to expand on it.
Here’s the full essay on Substack (no paywall):

I’m ooking forward to the discussion.
You’re clearly upset about Substack as a platform, and you’re free to feel that way. But let’s be real: I’m not monetized. I’m not promoting hate. I’m not affiliated with any extremist newsletter. I’m just using a platform to host an essay that challenges religious dogma with logic and reason.
If you want to debate the ideas, I’m listening. If you’re only here to torch the medium instead of addressing the message, then you’re wasting both our time. If you prefer Ghost, cool. But don’t mistake platform purity for moral high ground. Arguments stand or fall on their own merits, not on the domain under which they are hosted.
This isn’t about purity, that’s some right wing religious nonsense. It’s simply about not enabling and funding Nazis. This isn’t a hate crime or some far fetched idea. The basic concept of don’t enable and fund Nazis is pretty fucking straightforward. The paradox of tolerance isn’t complicated.
Only good Nazi is a dead one.
If you followed logic and reasoning you’d moved your argument off the Nazi platform.
