NAVY APPROVES FIRST EVER SATANIC MEMBER FOR ENLISTING

The British Armed Forces has officially recognised its first registered Satanist, a newspaper reports.



Naval technician Chris Cranmer, 24, has been allowed to register by the captain of HMS Cumberland, based at Devonport Naval Base in Plymouth.



The move will mean that he will now be allowed to perform Satanic rituals on board the vessel.



According to the Sunday Telegraph, Mr Cranmer realised he was a Satanist nine years ago.



Religious values



Mr Cranmer said that was when he stumbled across a copy of the Satanic Bible, written by Church of Satan founder Anton Szandor LaVey.



He said: "I then read more and more and came to realise I'd always been a Satanist, just simply never knew."



Mr Cranmer, who is from Edinburgh, is now lobbying the Ministry of Defence to make Satanism a registered religion in the armed forces.



   

The Navy should not permit Satanist practices on board its ships

Tory MP Ann Widdecombe

Former Tory minister Ann Widdecombe said she was "utterly shocked" by the Royal Navy's decision.



"Satanism is wrong. Obviously the private beliefs of individuals anywhere, including the armed forces, are their own affair but I hope it doesn't spread."



She added: "The Navy should not permit Satanist practices on board its ships.



"God himself gives free will, but I would like to think that if somebody applied to the Navy and said they were a Satanist today it would raise its eyebrows somewhat."



A spokesman for the Royal Navy said: "We are an equal opportunities employer and we don't stop anybody from having their own religious values."



The path to Satan



The Church of Satan was established in San Francisco in 1966.



Mr LaVey was its high priest until his death in 1997.



Followers live by the Nine Satanic Statements, which include "Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence", "Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek" and "Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification".



Doug Harris, director of the Reachout Trust, an evangelical Christian ministry that "builds a bridge of reason" to those involved in cults and the occult, says the statements are "selfish".



"Following such tenets and working them out practically in your life seems to produce a selfish person not a member of a team," he said.





Arizona Wilder said in her interview about Naval Intelligence in America being the main protagonist of occult ritual and practice due to the US having access to massive underground submarine bases that no one can access.

ALIEN DISCLOSURE FROM SOLDIERS

Witness testimony from more than 120 former or retired military personnel points to an ongoing and alarming intervention by unidentified aerial objects at nuclear weapons sites, as recently as 2003. In some cases, several nuclear missiles simultaneously and inexplicably malfunctioned while a disc-shaped object silently hovered nearby. Six former U.S. Air Force officers and one former enlisted man will break their silence about these events at the National Press Club and urge the government to publicly confirm their reality.



One of them, ICBM launch officer Captain Robert Salas, was on duty during one missile disruption incident at  Malmstrom Air Force Base and was ordered to never discuss it.  Another participant, retired Col. Charles Halt, observed a disc-shaped object directing beams of light down into the RAF Bentwaters airbase in England and heard  on the radio that they landed in the nuclear weapons storage area. Both men will provide stunning details about these events, and reveal how the U.S. military responded.  





Captain Salas notes, "The U.S. Air Force is lying about the national security implications of unidentified aerial objects at nuclear bases and we can prove it." Col. Halt adds, "I believe that the security services of both the United States and the United Kingdom have attempted—both then and now—to subvert the significance of what occurred at RAF Bentwaters by the use of well-practiced methods of disinformation."

The group of witnesses and a leading researcher, who has brought them together for the first time, will discuss the national security implications of these and other alarmingly similar incidents and will urge the government to reveal all information about them. This is a public-awareness issue.



Declassified U.S. government documents, to be distributed at the event, now substantiate the reality of UFO activity at nuclear weapons sites extending back to 1948. The press conference will also address present-day concerns about the abuse of government secrecy as well as the ongoing threat of nuclear weapons.
