You scored as Satanism
You scored as Satanism. Your beliefs most closely resemble those of Satanism! Before you scream, do a bit of research on it. To be a Satanist, you don't actually have to believe in Satan. Satanism generally focuses upon the spiritual advancement of the self, rather than upon submission to a deity or a set of moral codes. Do some research if you immediately think of the satanic cult stereotype. Your beliefs may also resemble those of earth-based religions such as paganism.

You are The Devil

Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession

The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.

Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really "Satan" at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild - or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.

DANNY THOMAS founder of St Jude's Children's Research Hospital & recipient of the Congressional Gold Medal of Honor, the highest civilian award given by Congress for his dedication to saving children’s lives.www.stjude.org
DR ALFRED SOMMER, an opthamologist from Maryland who discovered that imporvershed children in underdeveloped countries could be saved from night blindness caused by severe malnutrition if given just a tiny amount of Vitamin A.
MORE ON THE DOC: In the 1970s Dr Sommer learned that night blindness was epidemic in children living in extremely impovershed areas in Nepal & Indonesia. Unable to fend for themselves, these night blind children were virtually helpless & almost always became totally blind & suffered early deaths. The Doctor set out to learn why night blindness was affecting so many children in these areas & to hopefully find a reasonable solution to the problem. He discovered that the kids were all suffering from extreme Vitamin A deficiency & concluded that a little 2 cent capsule of Vitamin A given once every 6 months could not only prevent night blindness & total blindness, but also reduce childhood mortality by a third. Even more amazing was that children with later stages of night blindness actually regained their eyesight completely within one day of being dosed with the Vitamin A. It was literally a miracle cure. Unfortunately, the global health community was not convinced that Vitamin A was the answer to the night blindness epidemic, dismissing Sommer's results as "too good to be true." They just couldn't believe something so simple & cheap was all that was needed to end such a huge problem. Finally, after like 20 years of dosing the at-risk children with Vitamin A, the irrefutable hard data finally convinced these critics that Vitamin A was the solution.
"The World Bank has judged the vitamin A capsule one of the most cost-effective medical interventions of all time, and programs to dose children with it have now been rolled out in 70 countries."
