Re: requestin info on satanism
It depends on what it is, exactly, about Satanism that you find attractive as to what to research.
However, to note - be aware that there are two "mainstream" divisions of Satanism: Atheistic Satanism (the most notable being Anton LaVey's Satanism) and Theistic Satanism.
Atheistic Satanism does not actually regards Satan as a real and literal being, but as an inspirational and symbolic representation of the values and philosophies popularly devised and described by Anton LaVey:
Church of Satan
Generic About.com Write-Up on LaVeyan Satanism
Theistic Satanism is not a singular religion, but it a descriptive term for any manner of Satanism which recognises Satan as a real and literal being.
There are a number of sites pertaining to Theistic Satanism (my own included):
Diane Vera's Theistic Satanism website
Venus Satanas' Spiritual Satanist website
Infernal Dialogues

I started a thread years ago. It's locked, but it answers a lot of practical questions.
