Oh really? I'd never heard that. I looked it up and the best I could come up with is that in a 2009 interview he was asked if he was a Satanist and he claimed to be more of a Luciferian. He definitely didn't come up with the term or the philosophy behind it.

The term Luciferian has been around in it's current meaning since at least the 1850's when Alphonse Louis Constant published Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie (under the pseudonym Eliphas Levi) which has a small section describing Gnostic Luciferianism. The next known reference was when Carl William Hansen published Den Ny Morgens Gry, Lucifer-Hiram, Verdensbygmesterens Genkomst in 1906 under the pseudonym Ben Kadosh. After that there's a pretty big gap in publicly available Luciferian material. During that gap there were organizations such as the Order of the Morning Star and Cultus Sabbati that were privately exploring esoteric practices that included Lucifer. That material was mainly available to private students at the time.

Around the beginning of the new millenium the modern leaders of the Luciferian community such as myself and Michael W. Ford started putting out articles and books on the subject. For example, Ford was developing new material inspired by the Cultus Sabbati tradition around 1999 and started publishing the material for the public in 2003. I started writing articles fleshing out Gnostic Luciferianism including an online series of lessons that I released in 2002. A few years later in 2005 Bjarne Salling Pedersen and Michael Bertiaux founded the Neo-Luciferian Church based on the older Ben Kadosh material. The community has only continued to grow from that point.
