Definition
A "devil worshiper" is someone who venerates or pays homage to the Devil, often seen as a figure of rebellion, darkness, or primal power. This can involve rituals, symbols, and beliefs that oppose mainstream religions, particularly Christianity. The concept is complex and varied, encompassing different interpretations and practices. Some see it as a genuine religious path, while others view it as a symbolic rejection of societal norms. Not all who are labeled as such self-identify as "devil worshipers." The term is often sensationalized and misunderstood. It is associated with the occult and counter-culture.
