Hilarious that you just admit this, right out in the open. Even funnier that you imagine that saying this is some sort of defense to @the_real_simon_i...

I noted as to your previous post in this thread This new post, however, is absolutely "provocatively stupid". A couple of cherry-picked quotes ...

When did you get this Hons degree, and where? For non-Brits, he is saying he has an undergrad degree. Strange that you have never mentioned this bef...

Possible pot-kettle issues here?

In the US, and many other places, this is indisputably true, by and large, and of course there are many exceptions. That isn't what he said. He s...

And recall the words of that great Yogi known among men as "Berra": It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future.

Thank you for your contribution. Your discussion of class and Thelema is interesting. You are correct that AC very often discusses class, but seem som...

Yes, in addition to learning how many days are in the different months, @herupakraath should get those "Egyptian Adepts" to explain to him the differe...

Interesting equation. BUT: Did you know that January has 31 days, not 30 days? So the correct sum is: 31 + 29 +31 +8 = 99 Helpful mnemonics for ...

It does give one to wonder just what these Egyptian Adepts are up to here, doesn't it? Maybe these Egyptian Adepts are just really bad at arithmetic...

That ol' devil fencepost error, ouch! As he always does when caught out in these (rather frequent) howlers, our Doughty Texas Prophet will disclaim ...

Leah's gleaming turd, consumed with such masochistic drama in 1920, was not AC's first experience of coprophagy. Recall that he had already enjoyed ...

Turns out that those "alien corpses" presented to the Mexican Congress are absolutely real, despite looking like obvious cheap fakes: At least ac...

Just noting that this query remains unanswered, and kind of important. You have claimed that "[t]his Oath of Absolute Obedience is a vital one in Th...

These days of course HG's joke about the Bible as a comic book has quite literally come true; i found at least 6 different comix versions of Revelatio...

Interesting stuff. And it does seem clear that AC could not definitely fix the date or place of the writing- or much else about those events. Perhaps ...

Pretty strange Greek (not that i know much Greek- the language is literally Greek to me). At the very least, "H Kokkine Gyne" [aka ""ὴ κόκκινὴ γυνὴ"...

Obviously i would not have been reading the man and doing practices he suggested for more than 50 years, and hanging around here for 18 of those years...

Golly, hard to imagine any possible answer to that one! Of course, none of us current participants in this discussion are women. Possibly if any w...

More recent UFO revelations: Mexican Congress gets in on the "UFO testimony" act, views alien corpses presented by "journalist and ufologist Jaime Mau...

This is a kind of old thread, that has gone on for quite a long time. There have been many other quite similar threads over the last 7-10 years. This ...

You seem to know more than i here, JB, and happy to be corrected. Never having heard of any of those women, i can say that none of the female IXs ha...

My understanding is that Phyllis Seckler, Helen Parsons Smith, and Mildred Burlingame were the only female IXs ever in OTO/(c)OTO history. All three...

With apols for double-post: i am well aware that the current Caliphornian (c)OTO pays lip service (see what i did there?) to the idea that the OTO is ...

Recall that the OTO constitution says that "the names of women members are never mentioned". This is because they are mindless sperm-receptacles, wh...

Thank you for clarifying; makes perfect sense now.

So then: this misunderstanding of a pop-psychology trope rooted in zoology is, you think, somehow related to a misunderstanding of Thelema? I guess ...

For those of us who wonder how potential pop-psychology misinterpretations of a zoological concept dating from several decades after AC's death could ...

Would you please start this "future thread" already, and shut up about it here?

Here is a workaround: ??? Highlighting the "paragraph" above will reveal that it actually does not consist of a single question-mark, but in fact ...

Nicely fielded, Michael. Or is that "afielded"? But @wellreadwellbred is referring to Karl Popper's kind of well-accepted, well, actually, universal...

For example, this post by Shiva has "characters more then two", in that it has 45 characters, exclusive of spaces, according to my robot character-cou...

I am joining Shiva herein, to make it official that 100% of the LAShTAL Elderly American Druggie Cabal is very pleased to see you, Norma/@jamiejbarter...

More like "absurd claims in testimony by obvious nut-bars elicited by nut-bar Congresspersons hoping for voter support from crazy people", but OK. F...

Oh, i do. Self-deception of the highest order is Messiah Moss' whole MO.

This is a deliberately provocative post (1) about a forbidden topic, politics (2), that is utterly false (3) and ignores the actual historical facts (...

In addition to avoiding politics, as you are evidently unable to do, posts must not be false: Submissions must not contain false or misleading inf...

An impressive shoe-horning effort at "both-sides-ing" the Trump Crime Family and Joe Biden's crack-head son, in service to your LaRoucheite beliefs. ...

Who last posted in this thread just over two years ago, in 2021. Serial posting may not be banned but is uncouth. We all do it from time to time, bu...

Maybe. The methods described in Diary never worked for AC when he wanted to kick dope, and there is no record of them working for any other real-world...

A perfectly reasonable response to a totally unreasonable question. What we have in this thread is an example of "confusing the planes". The OT que...

OMG, that was so much worse even than one would have imagined. Truly, as you say, totally devoid of Elvis. It is startling that musical backing can ...

Not really, AC says that it "may" be that: Old Comment: "I do not understand 'Din.'" New Comment: "'Din' — 'severity' or 'Judgment' may refer to t...

Interesting criterion. If scientific views of "what is a 'planet'?" matter, how on earth can you justify including the Sun, and the Moon, as "planet...

Certainly was not "Betty Crocker"/"Secret Chefs"-ing you, @aleisterion, but rather merely calling attention to some previous witty posting. My impre...

I just wanted to call attention to this 2007 post, by a ?banned? person called "subrosa", from the first page of the thread. I am somewhat upset at ...

Wait for what? It has been 48 years since she died in 1975, having rejected Thelema/AC decades before that.

Yes to all that. I was being too polite to point out that few indeed of us, and few anywhere, can aspire to 3/4 learned-ness like either Marx or AC,...

A description that, of course, might possibly also apply to some other folks too. Some might even so describe a certain British brewing heir and min...
