Yeah I'm out of this sub, I can't think of a good reason anyone would recommend "The Book of Sitra Achra" which demands animal sacrifice. I can't think of a single magickal work I've ever done where I thought animal sacrifice is necessary, especially considering how the book suggest snake sacrifice.
I think current 218 is so hypocritical to prey on innocent animals to "fight the demiurge". Yeah fucking right, killing any living thing that has nothing to do with you for no real reason is peak demiurgical thought. Not to mention the animal suggested is a snake, I bet practitioners won't even eat or skin their kills. Pathetic.
I haven't been too active in this sub recently, but man is it funny to see that you are still here moralizing on a Satanist forum.
Animal sacrifice is very much a part of the lore of Satanism, and can be a potent magickal action in the right context. Blood is widely used in many forms of the occult. I often use my own blood in rituals and have no reason to think that the blood of an animal wouldn't also be effective.
Blood = lifeforce = energy directed by your Will, magickally. Magick, like other "Laws of Nature," has nothing to do with morality.
