They say, “Do something if it’s to your advantage; if it is to
                 someone else’s advantage, don’t waste your time.” The result of
                 this attitude is a society composed of selfish, unjust, inhumane,
                 cruel and merciless individuals. The following words of Anton
                 LaVey describe their ideal order of a society; the passage is a strik-
                 ing indication of how merciless satanism is:

                     . . . there should be, ideally, . . . not rules, not regulations, but
                     an arrangement whereby the hunted know they’re the hunted,
                     the hunters know they’re the hunters and that’s it. A little more
                     self-awareness on the part of the human beings, the human
                     animals of this world, would go a great deal toward affecting
                     some advancement for mankind or some progress, I think. 36
                     In LaVey’s view, society is a herd of animals in which there
                 must not be any law and order. LaVey envisions society as divid-
                 ed into two classes: the hunters and the hunted; every social rela-
                 tionship will be determined by the idea of predator or prey, just

                 as it is in a savage arena.
                     How will order be kept in a society that recognizes no rules?
                 That question shows another aspect of the savage face of satan-
                 ism. The leader of a satanist clan in Turkey gives his opinion on
                 this matter:
                     The [“Do whatever you want”] rule may hasten the evolution
                     of man, which has slowed down since the beginning of the
                     18th century. That is because when a completely free person
                     suffers a little, he will constrain himself without any pressure. 37

                     Actually, satanists’ hostility to rules and laws is not logical,
                 because a society lacking rules and regulations will not be to their
                 advantage. In order to ensure a society’s continued existence, the
                 necessary contentment and stability can be obtained only by the
