LaVey’s Five Point Plan Revisited (Essay by Magistra Blanche Barton)
With the Church of Satan’s 50th birthday soon upon us, now is a good time to review what we’ve accomplished and where best to concentrate our resources over the next ten years or so. Anton LaVey’s influence on popular culture is well established. Music, fashion and the arts, various self-help paths, the growing acceptance of pagan and magical pursuits, and the recent rise of atheism have all been enlivened by the energies released in 1966. What could there possibly be left to do?
Let’s review the Five Point Program which Dr. LaVey set forth in the late 1980’s as our plan of action. Points four and five are the development and promotion of humanoids, and of total environments. Scientists and techno-geeks are doing a bang-up job in these departments, developing exceedingly realistic artificial human companions, both of the Real Doll and virtual Facebook-friend variety. There has also been great progress made in creating total environments—commercial ventures like Disneyland and the Wizarding World of Harry Potter abound, while any number of other permanent and faire-type periodic re-enactments allow for total immersion. We have virtual worlds galore to explore in the form of video games, many now outpacing movie sales. Movies and television series are becoming more enveloping, the bigger the budgets get. As in ancient Rome, we have more than enough entertainments to distract us. However, when we get to point two, we’re suffering a bit of a social lag, preventing any widespread movement toward taxation of all churches. That will change as Christianity and other theistic religions are recognized as the for-profit businesses they’ve always been. With more government social programs taking over the charitable work that used to be some justification for churches’ tax exempt status, and other corporations being taxed and regulated at such rates they can’t even survive, churches’ privileged position will become more and more of an irritation.
Your job as a Satanist
is to identify and pursue
your own happiness.”
That leaves us with two important points in LaVey’s plan very much in need of manifesting as soon as possible. Number one is “stratification” and is emphasized by our founding High Priest as, “the point on which the other four goals ultimately rest.” It advocates allowing people to sink or swim according to their own talents and abilities, instead of being protected from the consequences of their own incompetence. “If a person is ethical, productive, sensitive and knows how to conduct himself among human beings, fine; if he’s a destructive, amoral parasite, he should be dealt with quickly and cruelly.” We haven’t achieved this yet. Because of the continuing cult of victimization, many incompetent, malefic beings are contentedly sucking enormous resources from our munificent government, sending us all into obscene debt, threatening the financial and social stability of our nation. As we keep working to enlighten, the compulsion to care for the PC appointed undeserving “victims” will dissipate like a cloud of unreason, leeches will be recognized for what they are and eradicated.
The third point, return to the Law of the Jungle, involves securing true justice within the justice system. There has evolved an attitude of Christian forgiveness, reflected in light sentences for even the most heinous crimes. Satanic imperatives demand justice—blind and unyielding. If one is convicted of, or better yet confesses to, a brutal, unconscionable act of violence against another being, and there is no doubt of the validity of the conviction, one should be summarily taken out and shot. This system of endless appeals in which years pass with no resolution gives no peace to the family of those taken, nor to the perpetrator who knows he or she should rightly be executed. The person we execute is no longer the person who committed the crime. How could he be? Decades of contemplation and repentance have passed. But it was the younger self who committed the crime, and it is that younger self who destroyed a mother, sister, child, wife—someone depended on by others, someone deeply missed. On the other hand, our courts are choked with crimes of vice—drugs, especially—which should be legalized, regulated and taxed, removing the rewards we are granting criminals in the form of high prices. The greed and lawlessness now causing the streets of America’s cities to run with blood are shameful. The nations whose economies depend on satisfying our appetite for illicit, mind-numbing pleasures are suffering immeasurable losses, of life, security, productivity—but their leaders often only pay lip service to enforcing drug laws, as they desire the income from America and Europe, no matter the cost to their own citizens. We cannot dictate what happens in other countries but we have the power to decriminalize drugs so exporters’ profits evaporate.
The Law of the Jungle also requires, as with stratification, that an individual suffer the consequences of his actions—for good and ill. Instead of praising achievement and wealth, we’ve developed an unhealthy attitude of scapegoating, blaming any number of people and/or entities for failings in life, leading the unfit to thrive at the expense of the successful. One of the reasons LaVey called his philosophy Satanism was to alert us to the ease with which religionists and other socially accepted types demonize The Others (by whatever name) as a convenient excuse for failure. Your parents, your boss, the Jews, the government, global warming, rich people, white people, black people, Big Brother, Twinkies…. Many American citizens tend to overlook one element in this complex equation (as do Satanists who practice selective reading): Responsibility to the responsible. If you want freedom, you have to own the consequences, in magic or in democracy. It takes responsible judgment to act for the good of the whole, to see cooperative citizenship as working toward your own ultimate safety and satisfaction, when wielding a sword, a pen, a shovel or showing up to vote.
Our job as the Church of Satan is:
1) To continue to clarify Anton LaVey’s philosophy, making sure it doesn’t become diluted or altered with the passage of time and the inevitable progress of technology,
2) To continue to test and apply Satanic principles of Greater and Lesser Magic in order to further manifest the Dark Lord’s Will upon this Earth and discover what innovations will be conjured forth, and
3) To make certain Satanism is understood enough by the general populace so Satanists are not harassed, incarcerated or eradicated simply for being innovative, if perhaps eccentric, freethinkers and heretics.
Your job as a Satanist is to identify and pursue your own happiness. What other religion will tell you that? You don’t have to tithe, give charitable donations, love your fellow man or turn the other cheek. You just need to apply your brains and strength to making your part of the world—your backyard—a more satisfying retreat for yourself and those you cherish. From that basic selfishness has arisen all the evolutionary success in nature and all scientific achievements of man. Seek pleasure, avoid pain, and be efficient. Those are the three recognized imperatives of all living beings. They are all you need. Manifest them.
I will close with Anton LaVey’s reflections he wrote at the ten-year point of our existence: “To those of you who were with me in the beginning when the show got on the road, and to you who have since become a part of us in mind, body or act of just plain orneriness, I am grateful for your support. ‘Evil’ is still ‘Live’ spelled backwards, and if evil we be live we will. Living well is still the best revenge against all adversity. Love, laugh, fancy, create, innovate, reap and revel—as Satanists—in this best of all worlds, World without end. Remember, the first 99 years are always the toughest. Rege Satanas!”

There will be two screenings: one at 7 pm and the other at 9:30 pm.
youtube
    Saturday 2nd June
Open Firestation in Frederiksberg

Posted by SPACE10 on Thursday, 17 May 2018
    First Hate at Lillefredag, Tivoli
Danish pop duo First Hate will be performing at Tivoli’s Lillefredag. If you’re not familiar with their sound, it’s very New Wave – in the best way. Singer Anton Falck is an absolute joy to watch on stage, and his deep, sonorous voice recalls Ian Curtis of Joy Division.
youtube
    Friday 8th June
Trevor Noah at Forum
The South African comedian is performing in Copenhagen. Well-known in South Africa for his hilarious stand-up, Noah has more recently become a household name as the host of the news satire TV program “The Daily Show.” If you haven’t seen the impressions peppered throughout his stand-up, check out the clip below!
youtube
    Saturday 9th June
Bonnie and Clyde at Cinemateket
See Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty in perhaps their most iconic roles in this 1967 film directed by Arthur Penn. The acting, the aesthetic; it’s all great.

Soldier Blue (1970) was directed by Ralph Nelson, and stars Candace Bergen and Peter Strauss. The film, which depicts graphic violence against Native American women and children, is meant to double as an allegory for the Vietnam War. There will be two other anti-Westerns (also known as revisionist Westerns) shown on
youtube
    Friday 15th June
Animal Collective at Store Vega
See the massively popular American experimental pop band. Their eclectic take on both their sound and who actually appears in the band on any given day have made them a somewhat mysterious, but greatly beloved, group.
youtube
    Sunday 17th June
Danish on a Sunday: QEDA at Cinemateket
Danes don’t typically produce sci-fi films, but this is one of the few. If you’re into the genre, it’s definitely worth checking out. Set in 2095, the film follows Fang Rung in a dystopian future as he undergoes molecular fission and sends his other half back in time. As with all “Danish on a Sunday” films, there will be English subtitles.
youtube

Copenhell
The massive heavy metal festival on Refshaleøen is back and their line up this year is rad. Alice in Chains, Ozzy Osbourne, Deftones, and Kreator will be taking the stage, just to name a few. The vibe here is always good old heavy metal fun; everyone is just there to rock out. There are still tickets left, but they go fast.
youtube
    Friday 22nd – Saturday 30th June
Rebel Without a Cause at Cinemateket
If you haven’t yet seen the classic 1955 film “Rebel Without a Cause,” starring James Dean (he died before the film’s release), Natalie Wood, and Sal Mineo, you’re in luck: Cinemateket will be showing it every day for a week! The film tells the story of Jim, Judy, and Plato, three suburban teenagers dealing with various emotional issues stemming from their parents. At the time, the film was groundbreaking for its portrayal of middle class, suburban youth as troubled. Dean’s portrays of Jim is raw and wonderful.
youtube
    Saturday 23rd June – Sunday 24th June
Rosé Festival
Love rosé? Who doesn’t! Get yourself a ticket to this very summer-ish festival and enjoy a few glasses of something pink and tasting of strawberries. Mmm.
    Saturday 23rd June

    Monday 25th June
Ziggy Marley at Store Vega
Catch reggae and dub star Ziggy Marley performing at Store Vega. He always puts on a killer show and the beats will be excellent.
youtube
    Wednesday 30th June – Thursday 7th July
Roskilde Festival
Northern Europe’s biggest rock festival is back. There’s the music, of course (headliners this year include Eminem, Cardi B, and Vince Staples), but Roskilde is also serving up exciting food, and fun festival style. It’s a massive party, and all of Denmark will be there!
    Ongoing in June
  “VERY: Ed Ruscha on Paper” Exhibition at Louisiana Museum of Modern Art
See 54 paper works by living legend American artist Ed Ruscha, together for the first time thanks to the UBS Art Collection. Ruscha’s sly take on American culture, and particularly the LA landscape, is a real treat.

Silver, gold, gems and luxury items created during the Roman Empire, celebrating artisan craftsmanship and decadence. If you’re in the mood to party, but in a super-cultured way, this is the exhibit for you.
  Jesper Christiansen “Touchstone” Exhibit at GL Strand
Danish painter Jesper Christiansen is renown for his literary paintings that create almost-theatrical scenes and staging. “Touchstone” combines text with paintings to showcase the relationship between the words and visuals. A really interesting and unique museum experience!
  Mathias Bengtsson “Organic Transformations” Exhibit at Designmuseum Danmark
This is a small exhibition in the hall between the lobby and the cafe of Designmuseum Danmark, but it’s really worth a visit. These incredible pieces are a blend of furniture and art; one-off pieces that utilise new technological advances to create awe-inspiring textures.

Tone Chasing with Banna Harbera’s Jake Masigan
Tumblr media
Photo by: Iya Forbes
I consider Jake my guitar brother (from another guitar mother probably). I like the fact that we both own a white Strat and a Les Paul Custom. I was introduced to him back in college by my friends in my AB-Music Production circle of friends (I took up Multimedia Arts).
What started you into music? My dad was really into music. He’s a big reason why I’m where I am now. I always loved his music. When I was a kid, when all my friends were listening to fall out boy, I was listening to Earth Wind and Fire. It’s only til the 7th grade when I decided that I wanted to actually learn how to play. From there, it just came naturally that I wanted to make a career in music.
“
Don’t be afraid to try! Keep doing what makes you happy. You will never know where it will lead you.”
Tell us more about your musical background.
I started playing guitar when I was in the 7th grade. I knew a few chords and a few easy songs. When I was in high school, I took lessons for guitar and drums in the Yamaha School of Music. I was in the LSGH high school orchestra (my first taste of what it felt like to play with other fellow musicians) I was also in a band with my buddy Jay back then. We did a couple school gigs but never really shot off. I then went to DLS-CSB to take AB Music Production. That’s when I started to learn a lot when it comes to Music Theory, song writing, sound engineering, and playing. I played for a couple bands, that today, aren’t together anymore. Rebelle Fleur (Guitar), Dead Quiet (Bass), and the Anton Molina Project, which is sill quite active today. Then I decided to make my own band, Banna Harbera.
Tumblr media
(Source:https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10208313449580064&set=piaarp.1418842854.10208313449220055&type=3&theater)
Let's get to know more about Banna Harbera. How did the band come together?
We’re all course mates back in CSB. I wanted to build a band that I wanted to have fun with and jam with. Then part of thesis was to make a 3-track EP, so me and Yzay partnered up to make an EP for our Banna Harbera for our thesis. We release the EP for free and from there, we suddenly started getting some gigs. That’s when we decided that we should continue the band.

For you, what is the biggest achievement you guys have made so far? For me, the our biggest achievement is getting to play Wanderland 2017. It’s been a dream of ours to play for an event as big as that, and for it to happen is such a humbling experience for us. It truly was a blessing. It was fun since some of our friends from the OPM circle was playing there too. Apart from that, I’d say that an achievement of ours is bringing happiness to people with our music.
What got you into playing guitar in the first place? My dad was a great guitarist and pianist. I decided to try my hands on the guitar when I was in the 7th grade. I was so fascinated by the instrument and the people playing them that I just instantly wanted to learn how to play.
Who are your musical influences/Who are your favorite guitar players? And why? In terms of overall musicianship, my biggest idol is Dave Grohl. I think he’s such a great song writer and musician. I have so many favorite guitarists, but I’m a really big fan of Eric Johnson, Paul Gilbert, John Frusciante, and John Mayer. Eric Johnson with the way he voices his chords, Paul Gilbert with his virtuoso style of playing, Frusciante with the way he uses his guitar percussively, and John Mayer with his song writing and melodic leads.
What started you into music?

My dad was really into music. He’s a big reason why I’m where I am now. I always loved his music. When I was a kid, when all my friends were listening to fall out boy, I was listening to Earth Wind and Fire. It’s only til the 7th grade when I decided that I wanted to actually learn how to play. From there, it just came naturally that I wanted to make a career in music.
Let's talk axes. What guitars have you acquired and played over the years? 
My first ever guitar wasn’t even mine. It was my dad’s. It’s a 1980’s Yamaha CG-150 Classical guitar. It was the guitar that I learned the G Chord with. As silly as that sounds, at the time, I was so excited when I struck the chord for the first time.
My first electric guitar was a Fernando Strat HSS. At the time, I was a fan of the movie Crossroads. I saw a yellow Telecaster in the movie, (I even thought that the actor was really playing the guitar lol) so I got the Strat in that same pale yellow color. It played like ass, but back then, I didnt realize. I just wanted to play. When I got my second guitar, I made this into a project guitar. Unfortunately, I already sold this. I really loved this guitar though.
My second electric guitar was a white RJ Les Paul. This was what I used all throughout my High School days. This guitar taught me a lot about the anatomy of an electric guitar; all the parts needed for it, how to set it up, how to build one, tools needed to clean and maintain it, all that stuff. It was the guitar that brought the inner luthier out in me. It played really well. The neck was kinda crooked, but it still played perfectly.
Tumblr media
Fernando Les Paul 
My mom got this for me for my 19th birthday. I fell in love with it’s gloss black finish and it’s gold hardware. This will always be my favorite for a lot of reasons. It sounds great, it playes well, it stays in tune. Most of all though, this is what I’ve been using ever since 2014. I kinda can’t live without it. It’s been to countless jams, gigs and recordings sessions. It also went throught heavy rain, dirt, and drops. I’m never parting with this.
Tumblr media
SX Stratocaster
I got this last year. I always wanted to have a Strat again. And for P5,000, it was a steal! It was the same color as my first electric guitar, and it sounded and played better than it too. A week before I got this, I got a Tokai Strat. I wasnt feeling it, so I spotted the SX at a store and sold the Tokai to get the SX. No regrets. I am really happy with this guitar.
Tumblr media
Recently, Jake’s gotten a hold of this awesome Phoebus PG-20C Acoustic guitar.   
Tumblr media
Let's take a look at your pedalboard. What effects do you have right now on your rig? What pedals can you not play without? 
Right now, my signal chain is: 
Guitar – Digitech Bad Monkey – EHX Soul Food – Joyo AC Tone – Line 6 M5 – NUX Time Force – Amp. I used to have a Vox Wah on the board, but It’s kinda faulty so I took it out. The Bad Monkey is my main drive. The Soul Food is my clean boost. I also use it as a fuzz or as a boost for my Bad Monkey. The AC Tone is my “always on” pedal. Basically, my pre amp. The Line 6 is more of when I have a couple of effects I wanna add to parts of songs. The Time Force is my main delay. It’s got 9 presets, which I have set for different songs. 

I can play without a pedal board, but some songs require delays, drives, and a couple modulation effects. I think it’s handy to have it at all times just in case. And it’s a great if you want a consistent tone each gig. What amps do you use?

I have a Peavey Vypyr 30 as a practice amp at home. But during gigs, I just use whatever they have on hand. What are you listening to right now?

It changes everyday, I still listen to my dad’s songs. Mostly smooth jazz and a couple veteran bands like Steely Dan. I’ve been listening to a lot of new OPM as well. It’s always nice to hear new local music. How do you see the scene five years from now?

Five years from now, I think the music community here in the Philippines will be much closer. There are a lot of great bands out there right now, and five years from now, I think they’ll keep coming out with great music that a lot of people will enojy. What's your advice to your fellow musicians and guitar players, as well as bands who are starting out?

Don’t be afraid to try! Keep doing what makes you happy. You will never know where it will lead you.

    First Hate at Lillefredag, Tivoli
Danish pop duo First Hate will be performing at Tivoli’s Lillefredag. If you’re not familiar with their sound, it’s very New Wave – in the best way. Singer Anton Falck is an absolute joy to watch on stage, and his deep, sonorous voice recalls Ian Curtis of Joy Division.

Bonnie and Clyde at Cinemateket
See Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty in perhaps their most iconic roles in this 1967 film directed by Arthur Penn. The acting, the aesthetic; it’s all great. The film, based on a true story, is about two young people who go on a crime spree in the 1930s. At the time the film was released, the violence was extremely controversial. There will be an introduction by University of Copenhagen lecturer and author Peter Schepelern.

    Anti-Westerns: Soldier Blue at Husets Biograf
This Sunday series explores the “anti-Western” films of the 1970s that sought to subvert the “good cowboy, bad Native American, weak woman” stereotypes. Soldier Blue (1970) was directed by Ralph Nelson, and stars Candace Bergen and Peter Strauss. The film, which depicts graphic violence against Native American women and children, is meant to double as an allegory for the Vietnam War. There will be two other anti-Westerns (also known as revisionist Westerns) shown on

Danish on a Sunday: QEDA at Cinemateket
Danes don’t typically produce sci-fi films, but this is one of the few. If you’re into the genre, it’s definitely worth checking out. Set in 2095, the film follows Fang Rung in a dystopian future as he undergoes molecular fission and sends his other half back in time. As with all “Danish on a Sunday” films, there will be English subtitles.

Copenhell
The massive heavy metal festival on Refshaleøen is back and their line up this year is rad. Alice in Chains, Ozzy Osbourne, Deftones, and Kreator will be taking the stage, just to name a few.

Rebel Without a Cause at Cinemateket
If you haven’t yet seen the classic 1955 film “Rebel Without a Cause,” starring James Dean (he died before the film’s release), Natalie Wood, and Sal Mineo, you’re in luck: Cinemateket will be showing it every day for a week! The film tells the story of Jim, Judy, and Plato, three suburban teenagers dealing with various emotional issues stemming from their parents. At the time, the film was groundbreaking for its portrayal of middle class, suburban youth as troubled. Dean’s portrays of Jim is raw and wonderful.

  “VERY: Ed Ruscha on Paper” Exhibition at Louisiana Museum of Modern Art

Danish painter Jesper Christiansen is renown for his literary paintings that create almost-theatrical scenes and staging. “Touchstone” combines text with paintings to showcase the relationship between the words and visuals. A really interesting and unique museum experience!

This is a small exhibition in the hall between the lobby and the cafe of Designmuseum Danmark, but it’s really worth a visit. These incredible pieces are a blend of furniture and art; one-off pieces that utilise new technological advances to create awe-inspiring textures.
