Would it be okay to summon a demon under the pretense of them doing something? Such as them moving a specified object, in a controlled environment (Something small, surrounded by powder, in a see-through container ideally as to rule out as many outside factors as possible)
No, this is disrespectful. A Demon/God
should only be summoned when you have something that you need help with, not just because you have doubts and you are asking them to do silly things to "prove" that they are real. The Gods more often ignore such requests because they are busy and have more important things to do than just trying to convince someone. They don't need nor care to convince random people who just don't believe in them.
Please note,
they are powerful and busy beings, not scientific experiments, so you shouldn't disturb them if you aren't serious.
As about moving objects physically, this happens very rarely when summoning a God, even among advanced Spiritual Satanists. It's simple why: because this doesn't serve any actual purpose. And when it happens it's often at an unexpected time.

I know this may be thought of as rude, or as asking them to simply do a parlor trick, however, it's more than that for me. It's to prove beyond the shadow of any potential doubt that this is all real, I am willing to dedicate my life and my soul to this if I can get that proof.
You are free to practice power meditation, rituals to Satan and possibly work open your astral senses if you need to convince yourself in an experiential way. Take your time, you are not really expected to do the dedication if you are not sure. By all means, nobody says that you can't test things for yourself. But asking ridiculous and disrespectful things like that is something different.
Even if a God did such silly things, how do you think this would improve your life?
Would you be willing to practice power meditation every day and work on your soul? What difference would it make if they just did one silly trick at one time but never visited you again or never taught you anything for your own self-empowerment or independence?
You see, Spiritual Satanism isn't something that you have blind faith in just because you have proof (and yes, expecting a being to save you even if you know it's real is still blind faith), but about working,
actively working on empowering and transforming yourself. It's heavily dependent on your own effort and work.
I've seen quite a few people who either asked for signs or got something blatant fixed in their life after they asked for evidence. Did that motivate them to work on their souls daily? No. From my experience,
people who ask for proof from an external being in a lazy way (instead of trying to get it on their own by practicing SS things like meditations and rituals)
are often lazy and won't work on their souls even after they get blatant evidence in their personal lives. Of course, I'm not saying that you are lazy for sure.
Not to mention that
summoning a God if you are not a Dedicated Satanist is not recommended, so it's the other way: you should dedicate yourself
before summoning a God. There are many other things to do if you are not dedicated that can give you a sense of your soul and the hidden realms.
