Our Lady of Endor Coven (original) (raw)
Our Lady of Endor Coven, opgericht in 1948 door is ook bekend onder de benaming Ophite Cultus Satanis en was de eerste openlijk satanische groepering, nog voor de oprichting van de Kerk van Satan door Anton LaVey. De naam is een verwijzing naar een bijbelse figuur, de heks van Endor. Haar theologie was sterk geïnspireerd op het dualisme van Mani en ketterse gnostische ideeën, onder andere die van de Ophiten en de Naasseners (slangenvereerders), die de slang uit het Bijbelverhaal Genesis vereerden als de Brenger van ware Gnosis. De groep viel in 1970 uit elkaar na de dood van haar leider.

| dbo:abstract | Our Lady of Endor Coven, also known as Ophite Cultus Sathanas, was a Satanic cult claimed to have been founded in 1948 by Herbert Arthur Sloane (born September 3, 1905, died June 16, 1975) in Cleveland, Ohio. The group was heavily influenced by gnosticism (especially that found in the contemporary book by Hans Jonas, The Gnostic Religion), and worshipped Sathanas, their name for Satan (Cultus Sathanas is a Latin version of Cult of Satan). Sathanas (or Satan), was defined in gnostic terms, as the Serpent in the Garden of Eden who revealed the knowledge of the true God to Eve. That it called itself "Ophite" is a reference to the ancient gnostic sect of the Ophites, who were said to worship the serpent. The "Lady of Endor" is a reference to the Witch of Endor. Sloane's Coven was first publicly documented in the middle of 1968, when British occult writer Richard Cavendish said that he had received a letter from a Satanist "lodge" in Toledo, Ohio and a 1967 interview with Sloane with a Toledo newspaper about his occult and fortune telling business made no mention of it. While current scholars of Satanism point out that there is no substantial evidence showing Our Lady of Endor Coven existing prior to 1966, some also point out that it is likely that his group did have roots prior to that time: It seems probable the group was in existence before 1966, although I have not found any traces of it in literature prior to that date. Sloane himself suggested that he was already operating in the 1940s, but given the many parallels with Wicca the group displayed, it is more likely its date of origin must be located sometime after 1953, the year Gerald Gardner's neopagan cult of witchcraft came into the open.
