The Black Pope

The Black Pope PDF

The Black Pope, the equivalent of a 256-page 6x9 print book, corrects mistakes in and updates The Devil's Avenger: A Biography of Anton Szandor LaVey (Pyramid Books, 1974). This e-book supersedes all other writings, short or long, about the audacious man who took the role of the Devil's representative on earth and founded the Church of Satan. The Black Pope (the name for LaVey concocted by the mass media) is the ONLY true, accurate account of the life and career of one of the most extraordinary human beings who ever lived. Included are descriptions of the Black Mass as LaVey conducted it, his affairs with Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield, summaries of LaVey's unique philosophy that continues to be influential and the subject of college courses, profiles of Church of Satan warlocks and witches, and an explanation of the fascinating way in which Christian religion and its clerics caused those warlocks and witches, onetime members of Christian churches, to become Satanists. The book is illustrated with rarely seen, spectacular photos.
