Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

For the record infantile baptism actually had a point when the practice was started, mostly to try to save the infant's soul when it inevitably died because it was the Middle Ages and everything was gak.
Chick tracts are always worth a good laugh, dramatic readings of them can also be quite humorous if you know someone who can do a decent impression or three.
Of course D&D isn't evil, it's just a game with fantasy elements, summoning rituals too real? *snort* when the Monster Manual includes a free copy of the Keys of Solomon I'll start buying that old line. It's all forcing us to ignore the REAL evil on your FLGS's RPG shelf. GURPS which is not a game system so much as a calculus text book in disguise, making it an incarnation of the greatest evil known to man.
(Or at least to the mathematically impaired like me)

Then I don't want to play (though I do, I just really wanna be a space marine)
Edit: KM, completely agree GURPS is evil maths, and DnD isn't evil it's just a game... hell the best DM I've ever had was a pastor, he, his sister-in-law, her boyfriend, his son, me, my buddy, and a random fill in guy would play. The best campaign I ever played in was when he said, pick a game system and make a character of x level. So we had 3 Rifts characters from Paladium, I was playing an Infiltrator/Gunslinger/explosives expert from d20 Modern and my buddy was playing a 1 armed Abjuration Specialist wizard (he had a str of 6 and used floating disks to carry his crap) from dnd 3.5. It was so much fun, I completely screwed over the realm with a few good checks on how to make c4 in the world (or at least higher grade explosives than kegs of gunpowder )

You have no idea what it is like to awaken to the need for the taste of blood in your mouth.
You cannot imagine what it’s like to drive through the moist and midnight streets of a city praying that you would find a lone woman upon whom you might feed… and yet another part of you praying that you would NOT find such a woman, for fear of what you might really do.
That is probably a dismaying or even offensive statement for most. Be patient with me as I take you into a world where few have ever trod. It helps to understand where I came from in order to appreciate what Satan can do to people—and more importantly, what Jesus Christ can do for people.
I would awaken from sleep, craving the taste of blood, just as the cigarette addict arises fumbling for the pack of smokes beside his bed. My awakening was different from most, in that I awoke in the late afternoon. I had arranged to work graveyard shift jobs — first as a night watchman, and later as a driver for the morning edition of a newspaper.
Normally, I would awaken in a small, closet-like bedroom, heavily shrouded in purple velvet draperies to keep out every trace of sunlight. I slept on the floor, surrounded by Satanic paintings on the free walls and ceiling which were designed to be doorways into alternate dimensions of reality —other universes.
During certain seasons of the year, when I would have a particularly difficult time, I would sleep in a specially constructed coffin fashioned according to precise, occult specifications and covered on the floor with “blessed” earth from the consecrated Catholic cemetery brought from my home town. More of this “holy” earth was under my mattress.
I needed blood! While other sinful men craved women’s bodies, I was only interested in their necks or femoral arteries. My life was lived in near darkness, and I worshipped beings I called the Great Old Ones. Lucifer was but one of them, though an important one. I believed that these Old Ones were gradually turning me into an immortal being who would live forever.
My heroes were men like Nero, Hitler and Dracula, and I believed that I had daily contact with such men through channeling of spirits. They guided me — unholy spirits serving an unholy lord — and I followed “them” with a desperate and somber joy. How could any human being come to such a place? How could a person become so depraved and evil that they needed to live on human blood? The answer to that question lies in this book — in the true story of a person caught in a trajectory of evil from which there is no escape, except through Jesus.
This guy has is obviously not a vampire nor has he ever been. He talks about an uncontrollable bloodlust-yes i have experienced this but only once and that was i extremis He says he worshipped satan-well if he did that is his choice. Stalking city streets? Never bothered to. Ive always wanted to sleep in a coffin but thats just me. And if he was to stick to his own cannon then the blessed earth would kill him
I cant go on-the stupidity hurts to much but its people like this whom give my sort a bad name.

Ok, Hitler I get. Dracula...well...sort of a given, I guess...why Nero?
And the guy should learn some respect. Hitler worked really hard to be that evil. I imagine if he were an evil spirit-guide, he'd guide someone better than this loon.

Nero was sort of a tyrant...
EDIT:
From Wikipedia
Christian tradition and secular historical sources hold Nero as the first major state sponsor of Christian persecution, and sometimes as the killer of Apostles Peter and Paul. Some 2nd- and 3rd-century theologians, among others, recorded their belief that Nero would return from death or exile, usually as "the Anti-Christ. He is also seen as one of the most savage persecutors of Christians."
The Christians don't seem to look too kindly on him...

Nero is generally regarded as the man that allowed Rome to fall, ya know he was fiddlin' while Rome burned, a bit of a tyrant that one...

But that's not even true. Well...I mean it kind of is, but for different reasons. He wasn't in Rome at the time of the fire, he was in Atium(according to tacitus). And flutes didn't exist, he played a lyre. So it is possible that Nero played a lyre while rome burned, however the actual claim by Cassius Dio is that he sang the Sack of Illium while Rome burned. Reports from Tacitus go that once he heard of the fire he rushed back to rome to organize a relief effort, and after the fire many buildings were rebuilt in brick(he also built a new palace complex). Nero was being used as a scapegoat for the fire, so to deflect blame he used christians.
As an Emperor goes, on evilness level he was at most "average".

This level of Satanist is solidly hard-core, but may not actually have participated in human sacrifice yet. However, they have acquired an incredibly twisted ethic in which pain is pleasure and pleasure is pain. These individuals will slash themselves (or compliant others) to draw and/or drink blood. Animal sacrifices will be needed, because this is where the real power supposedly comes from. The highest sacrament for these people is the destruction of the innocent. At this level, rites of pain and perversion are believed necessary to open the "door" to bring into manifestation Satan's kingdom on the earth. Soulds are to be "won" at a frantic rate, because every one who signs up on Satan's list will be part of an army which will supposedly storm heaven and cast out the false God, Jehovah.
I'm tempted to get this and use it as a sourcebook for my D&D (or rather Lamentations of the Flame Princess) sessions -- but then again the material is pretty hackneyed. It might be better for creating player aid materials in a modern Call of Cthulhu game, where the investigators stumble upon a reverse cult situation.

A bit, a bit. I imagine it would help if you were christian. You'd be naturally inclined to villify someone who picked on your own faith. Provided that the people doing the picking weren't also Christians, of course. That just gets confusing.

I kind of like this cult.

They weren't Saints till he killed them.
That depends on your theology.
The Pauline epistles were often addressed "To the saints at.. (insert city)" He is writing to living Christians and calling them saints. So I believe you don't have to die or be martyred to be considered a saint..as the apostle Paul certainly didn't seem to think that.
