Satanist Anton LaVey Baptising Daughter

(Original Caption) "Satanic" Baptism. San Francisco: Anton Szandor LaVey, who calls himself a sorcerer and the high priest of the First Church of Satan, taps his gum-chewing 3-year-old daughter, Zeena Galatea LaVey, on the head with a sword during "baptism ceremonies" in San Francisco, May 23. A naked woman reclines on the altar during the anti-religious ceremony. LaVey, who claims to have 250 followers in San Francisco and 5,000 throughout the world, said the mystic ceremony was the first such baptism in history.
