Hello, I am living in a county where if you are not a member of the mainstream religion you are shunned. And atheism is frowned upon. What are your advices to deal with fundamentalists. (I am living in Turkey)

    I think most Satanists would agree that you should be very cautious however you wish to proceed. Understand the risks of being openly heretical and only take them on if you’re willing to handle them. Speaking for what you believe and for what’s right isn’t easy, but you can’t speak at all if you’re imprisoned or killed for your beliefs, for example. I’m honestly in no place to give you advice for what you should and shouldn’t do because despite the political and religious climate being relatively hostile in the US, I can still speak my mind relatively freely. I live in Oklahoma, but even here I can wear Satanic clothing and not worry about repercussions (my threat level rises as I leave the major cities, however).
