I don’t believe that Satan is real. Most Satanists don’t. It’s about the myth of Satan.
Look at it this way. You’ve seen a movie or read a book and been inspired by the story, even though you knew it was fictional, right? Satanism is the same way.
A myth about supernatural beings doing supernatural stuff, correct?

I’ve seen many movies featuring fictional stories or not. Plenty of them featured supernatural elements, plenty of them did not. Satanism features them, which is, eh… 😉
Beliefs should conform to one’s best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one’s beliefs.
Supernatural belief doesn’t fit with a scientific understanding of the world.

Supernatural belief doesn’t fit with a scientific understanding of the world.
And there are parts that are, correct?
Yes
And that’s the bottom line.
Stone cold Steve Austin, is that you?

That only seems witty because you clearly have little understanding of what satanism and humanism actually are beyond spelling.
I can cite all LaVey’s “keys” from memory, and have a degree in philosophy, if that helps. 🤠
