    Though in many natural objects, whiteness refining enhances beauty, as if imparting some special virtue of its own, as in marbles, japonicas, and pearls; and though various nations have in some way recognized a certain royal pre-eminence in this hue; even the barbaric, old kings of Pegu placing the title "Lord of the White Elephants" above all their other magniloquent ascriptions of dominion; and the modern kings of Siam unfurling the same snow-white quadruped in the royal standard; and the Hanoverian flag bearing the one figure of a snow-white charger; and the great Austrian Empire, Cæsarian heir to overloading Rome, having for the imperial color the same imperial hue; and though this pre-eminence in its applies to the human race itself, giving white man ideal masters hip over every dusky tribe; and though, besides all this, whiteness has been made significant of gladness, for all among the Romans  a white stone marked a joyful day; and though in other mortal sympathies and symbolizings, this same hue is made the emblem of many touching, noble things - the innocence if brides, the benignity of age; though among the Red Men of America the giving of the white belt of wampum was the deepest pledge of honor; though in many clines, whiteness typifies the majesty of Justice in the ermine of the Judge, and contributes to the daily state of kings and queens drawn by milk-white steeds; though even in the higher mysteries of the most august religions it has been made the symbol of divine spotlessness and power;

      by the Persian fire worshippers, the white forked foamed being held the holiest on the altar; and in Greek mythologies, Great Jove himself being made incarnate in a snow-white bull; and though to the noble Iroquois, the midwinter sacrifice of the sacred White Dog was by far the holiest festival of their theology, that spotless, faithful creature being held the purest envoy they could send to the Great Spirit with the annual tidings of their own fidelity; and though directly from the Latin word for white, all Christian priests derive the name of one part of their sacred vesture, the alb or tunic worn beneath the cassock; and though in the Vision of St. John, white robes are given to the redeemed and the four-and-twenty elders stand clothes in white before the great white throne, and the Holy One that sitteth there white like wool; yet for all these accumulated associations, with whatever is sweet, and honorable, and sublime, there yet lurks and elusive something in the innermost idea of this hue, which strikes more panic to the soul than that redness which affrights in blood.

      my best friend is 90% sure she’s a satanist
      
      now, for all you haters jumping to conclusions about what satanism is and deeming Britain a dodgy place because of it, let me educate you
      satanists worship themselves
      they don’t believe in the existence of satan, nor do they idolise him
      they simply follow the example of breaking through rules and restrictions, and living for themselves
      they live life to the fullest, because they don’t believe in an afterlife
      
      you can look the rest up
      there’s a lot of it
