From the research I have done, I will do my best to give a brief overview.
First off, I'm only going to discuss Religious Satanism, specifically Laveyan Satanism. If your looking for TheisticSatanism, then I'm afraid I won't be able to help you, as it is rare and doesn't have a unified organisation behind it. When I say "Satanism," I am referring to Religious Satanism.
With that out of the way, Satanism doesn't worship the Christian concept of Satan as A profoundly evil quasi deity but rather the pagan concept of Satan as a force of nature, representing strength, virility, etc. They also don't believe in an afterlife. They have 11 statements to live life by, they have 9 sins: stupidity, pretentiousness, herd conformity, solipsism, self-deceit, lack of perspective, forgetfulness of past orthodoxies, counterproductive pride, and lack of aesthetics. They also have the 9 Satanic statements, so here they are, straight from the horse's mouth:
"1. Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence!
2. Satan represents vital existence instead of spiritual pipe dreams!
3. Satan represents undefiled wisdom instead of hypocritical self-deceit!
4. Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates!
5. Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek!
6. Satan represents responsibility to the responsible instead of concern for psychic vampires!
7. Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all-fours, who, because of his "divine spiritual and intellectual development," has become the most vicious animal of all!
8. Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification!
9. Satan has been the best friend the Church has ever had, as He has kept it in business all these years!"
So, there you have it. If you want more than that, here are some sites you might consider looking at. They are linked below.
