Here's the thing with satanists: there's no system or hierarchy. That's the nature of satanism. Imagine a room where a bunch of snakes are intertwined and seething and slipping around in the blood and biting each other.

There's always a hierarchy. Even demons have it. I the case of Satanists it's maintained through threats, fear and blackmail

It's a constantly shifting sand mountain where they're all forming coalitions and betrayals constantly, all vying for power, where the main tool used is deception. There's nothing systematic about it. It's on the opposite end of the spectrum from order and hierarchy. It's chaos, manifest. Do you think a hierarchy can survive for any length of time when envy is at the root of their evil?

Neither of us can prove our statements. I'm merely presenting my experiences, based in a long line of traditional thought about the matter.

There is definitely a hierarchy. The hierarchy is just no always known, not even to most of the members themselves. It's the same system that's been used since the Bavarian Illuminati.

The hierarchy just isn't always of this world.
