I didn’t faced many straight and obvious opossitions yet, but there was many times when they called me Devil while thinking it should be a shame for me or that it should insult me, but I just gave them thanks and have took it as a praise.
Or when somebody called someone Devil while trying to do the same(insult) somebody, my words was like “if he ever would know who is Devil…” or “you dont know who is Devil…” and it sounds quite with multiple meanings as they don’t know what you talking about, and at the same time they think they know and they don’t even ask.
All the time this worked perfectly, without need for much explaining,
As with other oppositions, you can give some facts but not too much to not provoke more… like “I have heard in ancient languages like Sanskrit Satan means truth eternal, also in Ancient Greek and Sumer” or smth like that, you can also add “don’t you think populace is being fooled? These languages is much much older than xianity where it means evil”
You can pretend you heard something or know little bit and show that you doubt what they are saying.
But revealing that we are SS is bad idea for sure.. if you are dedicated and into Satanism, I bet it will not be hard to do it…
Btw don’t think too much, this will come naturally and with experience, just keep walking the path
And it’s fine to do mistakes, we learn from it, just be aware.
Don’t judge yourself for mistakes, keep attitude of learner and always seek to take lessons from it.
If you gonna reveal somehow, take it as lesson and move on, you will get another chance no doubt.
You will be fine.
