The Church of Rational Satanism was established in 2009 by Lee Banks.

"''Back in 2005 when I had my stroke, is when the first signs of CoRS appeared, part of my recovery was using a PC to get my hand and eye coordination back. So, I ended up playing with pentagram designs and the motto “Satan reigns to reason and the power of the inner” was born. During my rehabilitation sessions, I designed the sigil and the motto represented my way of thinking and the strength that is inside us all to battle and overcome life’s obstacles. It wasn’t until late 2008 that I decided to put pen to paper and put the way of thinking out there in a book that was originally titled “Modern Satanism.", Lee Banks, Founder of CoRS.

In the wake of being disappointed by the known philosophies of Satanism, he chose to adjust Satanism to work within his own particular outlook. These ideas are what worked best for him in regular day to day existence. It is intended to be a versatile and dynamic philosophy in which all can associate. Rational Satanism focuses on to logic and rationality, assisting one to see past preconceptions and religious propaganda. The end goal is to harness one’s own "self" to one's preferred standpoint. Rational Satanism does not deny humankind's requirement for divine beings and such like. Rather, it internalizes the archetype, expelling the need to worship an external being.

The teaching of Rational Satanism can be separated into numerous ideas. The core philosophy of the reasoning is characterized as, 90% 10% Thinking. The 90% being the common logic and mundane life that rules and speaks of the Rational Satanists lifestyle, and the 10% which is put aside for ceremonial means and activities that hold no pragmatic relevance in the 90% of regular daily existence. Only during intellectual decompression will actions in the 10% serve any purpose, e.g. during the acting of personal psychodramas, according to this idea. This is a defining point for the Rational Satanist.

A Rational Satanist learns to utilize both common logic and fantasy to their personal advantage, by simply leaving the fantasy of the 10% locked within the ritual chamber and executing the common logic in their day-to-day activities. Depending whether one’s viewpoint skirts on objectivity or subjectivity, the fraction basically changes through a paradigm shift to a fraction that suits a person’s system. This idea is presently joined with more concepts which are exclusive to this organization, namely: Satanic Mnemonics, S-Theory and S.A.T.A.N. These three concepts have been infused into the center of the practitioners reasoning to allow the individual a boundless type of self-investigation, by giving a practical approach, to draw information from different sources to make a framework, towards an individual model dependent reality and takes into account one can make the Satan archetype a considerably more individual piece of their own self. These ideas can be found in the third, fourth and fifth books in the Rational Satanism collection.
