Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

But, not part of a wider cult so far as I'm aware.
I think I'd also intended to state in my post that I'm perfectly willing to believe that there are crazy and/or fucked up, murderous people out there who are all about Satan, but that does not a cult make.

What is even happening?
Is "murderous" some meaning you're putting on the term 'satanic' or was it described as such in the article? It's not in the part you quoted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hail Satan!
ahem.
Who wants to join my Satanic cult? No murder, though. In fact, all my Satanic cult will do is take the occasional holiday for Black Mass....

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Hail Satan!
That's, like, my favorite song ever.

No. The article wasn't even about Satanic cults, and the figure I quoted was only used tangentially at best. In fact, part of my irritation with the idiotic figure is that it's thrown in despite the fact that, as far as I can tell, it has no relation to the rest of the article. Which was about the Vatican defending the practice of exorcism.
What prompted your question?

Could it be... Satan?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Who wants to join my Satanic cult?
Sure!
No murder, though.
Aw...

They wanted to impound your car for expired tags???
I thought you were still registered in NY at the time?
No, I bought my car in CA. I think they wanted to impound for "no license" because my license was still in NY. But I know that, when he looked up my registration in the system, there was no record of me having renewing my registration. Yet, I got my new tags the next day. Which was good since the fucker ticketed me for having an unregistered car.
I still had to spend a day in court. But I got everything dismissed.

Silence means security silence means approval
Frankly, I have never seen any evidence (and I've looked at lots) that's convinced me even a single "Satanic cult" has existed anywhere, ever.

Actually, I knew of some Satanic cult-type stuff in my hometown. Not the "listens to The Quiet Riot and The Led Zeppelin instead of the music of JESUS" Satanism the goofy religious types would use to scare up donat, er, the medi, er, the faithful.
We're talking a cross between skinheads and Satanists.
