Just a little bit of information for those who want to know what it's about
LaVeyan Satanism This form of Satanism was formed in 1966 by Anton Szandor LaVey, and is also known Atheistic Satanism or Modern Satanism. Influenced by Aleister Crowley and Friedrich Neitzsche, it's main teachings are based on indulgence and revenge, and also takes little snippets from misanthropy and social-Darwinism.
These Satanists do not worship Satan, Satan is a symbol for a human's natural instinct. This goes againsts the teachings of the Church, and forms an opposition to deity-based religions. The Satanic Bible, written by LaVey in 1969 reinforces all of this, and led on to help Satanism become the largest Satanic church in history.
Satanism stresses indulgence rather than abstinence. They believe that if there is no afterlife reward, you shouldn't hold back until death, and make the most of what you have on earth. It also stresses revenge, with the quote "If a man smites you on one cheek, SMASH him on the other".
While this seems very open, there are also rules and laws. They will be posted in a different thread.
Theistic Satanism Theistic Satanism is the worship of the Devil/Satan, and highly opposes and is prejudice against Christians and the Christian Church. Most believers worship Satan in the shape of a snake, as he appears in the story of Genesis, and they believe he blessed humanity with the forbidden fruit when he introduced free will.
Some Satanisms say that Satan was the savior of mankind, and worship Him as a God, and God is the enemy because he represses humanity. Others say that they are Satan's slaves and wish to oppress all the good in the world. LaVeyan Satanists believe that these people are not Satanists, but their beliefs point them towards 'reverse Christianity', a form of Christianity itself.
Setianism (the worship of the Egyption God, Set) was also very strong, but, like Theistic Satanism, it has died out and is basically unheard of.
While
this is just a basic insight to Satanism, you can always ask any of the
members of this group or myself for some extra information

I'm a mix between those three. But the Setianism is nearly the same as Theistic Satanism, they only believe that Set is the true Satan and the scarab hieroglyf Xeper (Kheper) is the key to everything.
