Okay, maybe I got that backwards. Just all aerobics instructors.
But they aren't hedonists at all.
I've seen documentaries on actual Satanists (who don't believe in Satan by the way) where they absolutely reject the notion that they either are or
condone hedonism.
The main reason being it would shorten your life to eat, drink and screw all you like. It's moderation is all. It's not hedonism, epicureanism or
stoicism.
To hear them tell it, we're all Satanists. They just happen to be honest about it. Do as though willst, as an animal. For that's what you are. But
an animal doesn't gorge itself or kill for pleasure or get drunk for that matter does it? The moral code isn't "relative" at all. It's concretely
based in what's good for you, your family, your community, your job. It's personal responsibility, dominance of self, control of your life. Not for
the weak minded.
It's just a poorly named philosophy is all.
