How so? Taking a look at the book, I'm seeing 10 pages with stuff like unscrambling letters to solve for the words "Friendship", "Compassion", "Respect", "Empathy", "Justice", "Reason", and "Freedom".
As for making new stories around a side character from other religions' mythologies and calling it a religion, that's just funny. Though I would assume most "Satanists" are simply protesting mainstream religions, taking a look at the "Theistic Satanism" page on Wikipedia shows that there are some groups who take it quite seriously as a religion - and seem to promote generally positive values (personal development, seeking knowledge, etc.) and the character of Satan in their beliefs is quite different from the villain of the Abrahamic religions (though it can be assumed is the same character that appears in those stories only - according to their beliefs - deliberately mischaracterized and misrepresented).
