The only Satanist Literature I've ever read is the Satanic Bible, as I prefer not to waste my time on these things, but in that work I do seem to recall that LaVey rejects the classification of most behavior traditionally regarded to be sinful as such, arguing that the Judeo-Christian moral paradigm hypocritically proscribes natural human impulses.
Not that LaVeyan Satanism isn't essentially atheism with a sexier name, some Objectivism, and a bullshit ritual magic system tacked on, but that's a different matter.
