These folks are adherents of an ancient religion worshipping the old gods. Just as these people have many names and some call them "shapeshifters" or "name stealers", their god(s) have a similar capability. Apis. Ba'al. Moloch. Saturn. Baphomet. Etc. The god seems to almost be "beside the point": what matters is that you are willing to sacrifice your children in exchange for your success. In this way they are inverted (and in every other way that follows). "Satanic" before the word Satan existed. "Ha satan" ("adversarial" or "demonic").
Yeah, we're on the same page, it seems.

We are remarkably close in our views, given that we do not know each other.
