Yes. Any belief system which incorporates symbols and ideas to convey a theory of a transcendental reality can be classified as a religion. Though... I wouldn't count it as a particularly good one.

Yes, it is the only true religion but the government and other religious groups do not want you to know this so they create fake religions so you do not develop supernatural and occult powers. go to: joyofsatan.com to read up on the religion.

No, they are not related terms, though they are often lumped together by the uninformed.

While both Satanism and Paganism both refer to a category of religions, the practices and beliefs of those religions differ greatly in fundamental principles. Some branches of Satanism, including LaVeyan Satanism, do not worship Satan in that they believe in an external being called Satan (believing in the existence of the Devil implies the existence of God), but believe in Satan as a symbol for human's inherent nature. Believers consider it to be a philosophy, not a religion, and consider themselves atheists. Some Satanists, on the other hand, do believe in an actual deity called Satan.

The association between Paganism and Satanism comes from the Church's stance that the gods and goddesses worshiped by others were the Devil in disguise, and while followers may worship, for instance, Odin, they really derive any power they may have from the Devil. It is also important to note that the term paganism denotes any number of religious practices where other deities that are not the Christian God are worshipped, and while people today refer to themselves as Pagan, in historical times, it was a blanket-term, not the name of any specific religion.
