Figures I edit and put a link to a Masonic source on the subject of Crowley's non-membership and it gets caught in the filter 😂 Hopefully the article shreds some more light on the topic, if you're interested that is. Much of it, you already had at the ready. It's funny the Masons wanted nothing to do with him, to the point that even to this day authors from the Grand Lodge will publish papers telling the nasty history and denying they knew Her Sweatyness.
At my primary school they called me Mary Poppins because Sheldon Cooper hadn't been invented yet and they knew I was ace and autistic before I did

Around 2:10:00 - a hagiography is a biography of a saint. So an autohagiography is the autobiography of a saint. Calling his autobiography an "autohagiography" is Crowley basically admitting that he's writing mythology about himself.

It's called Confessions which is a reference to one of the first confessional, biographical texts: Confessions of St Augustine
I can't believe he gave people LSD and put them in his nightmare room decades before LSD was even invented. Truly a master of magic.

@d.w.stratton4078 tbh I work for a united methodist church and this spring the denomination is holding a vote to decide if my faggy little ass is a human person deserving of gods love or not. I'm sticking around hoping they vote yes and I can push this specific church into radical acceptance and love of all human beings. And if not I took this job because my very loving and accepting on a personal level grandmother goes here and wanted me to, so ill keep this place running till she dies and leave the water running and the drains plugged when I leave.

@@gh0stcup there's a really interesting (lower res as they were starving college students at the time) series of videos by Reckless Ben going undercover on scientology. Granted, he's no Carol Marinara - but it's still interesting and each installment is brief enough to know rather quickly if it's your type of content. (I reiterate, I do ask grace given for a/v quality because it is *not* an indicator of the content. I don't work for them - I just have the urge, as a poor person, to ask that Content Creators be given a fair shot on work even before they had "all the things") TLDR; You might like that jaunt. It's so broad that interest can focus nearly anywhere - but I thought it might tide you over.

Ooooh my abusive ex wanted to be Crowley so bad! I'll be back to listen tomorrow at work!
my jaw literally droped when i heard the new intro song (not in a bad way, i love both versions). as for crowley i have mixed feelings for his contributions to modern satanism, but he was apparently, well, a very strange man...
I was soooo excited to see this one. My ex was in the OTO when we first got together. I didn't know anything about it at the time. He wouldn't say much, and was weird about it, almost like he felt uncomfortable. I even made his initiation robe. I looked into it and realized how weird and predatory it was, but knowing cults I know telling him that wouldn't help. Eventually he brought up not wanting to go to a ritual but everyone would be mad if he didn't, and I could tell he wanted to talk about it, but felt he couldn't because it was a "secret" society, so I pressed him about it. He eventually came clean about the nude rituals and how they wanted to bring him to the next level but if he climbed much higher he'd be getting into s3× magic and he wasn't sure he wanted that. So I told him it was all bull and they were taking advantage of him and his money. He asked if I thought he should quit and I was like well yeah of course, but you have to decide that yourself... it took him a bit longer to decide to quit, but he did.
1:24:55 It’s very “I can say what I want, I have free speech.” “Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequences.”
wait updated theme song too? This makes up for my absolutely heinous morning

ive been toying with the idea of doing a trampy rococo-themed drag queen with the name "Marie Au Toilette" (y'know like marie antoinette, but toilet water. idk, i took spanish in high school lol)
A hagiography is like a gaslight eulogy to somebody recently deceased. Like when MSM tearfully remembers how nice and wonderful a 404'd Bush or Kissinger was. So I guess Crowley writing his own auto-hagiography is kind of fitting. Love this channel. The laughter brings me joy.
Humble Latinist, long time listener here One thing I don't think Crowley can be faulted for is his Latin. It checks out
So the thing about running away from a volcanic eruption seems plausible to me. There’s a few different kinds of eruptions and depending on the eruption type that’s completely doable. They’d need to have been a little ways off from the epicenter when the eruption went off, but if they were then sure
I've been wondering when you Quintessential Queers were going to tackle The Great Beast Himself. I wonder what would have happened if Crowley and the OTO could have turned the tables on LRH when they found out about the blackmail.

Hoots and Caelan, fan and follower here (and a follower is one who follows out of love and respect, not fear - does 'greatness' really have any followers, except the depraved). All aside - I don't agree with all this guys viewpoints, moreso for his vocabulary and lack of clarification on some points, but he does educate a lot and could use exposure. Most of all, here's some crowley commentary from him - no, a religion or person is not validated by virtue of Crowley, or any human being. But this video like most of his is such good fun: agick-philosophy-instrumentals-ep6/sets
I am excited about this video, honestly. My best friend had a son and his father (now left them) named him Aleister after Crowley, and I am hopeful that this video will help me better explain his true nature to her, when his father just called him "and occultist and magician" claiming he was completely harmless and not the man he truly was.

"Do what thou will be the whole of the law" is literally ancient christian philosophy that became unpopular with the church when people's wills lead them to leave the church. Its complete form is "Do what thou will be the whole of the law and to thy own will be true" is basically just "Know what you want, reflect on what you want, act accordingly to what you actually want" and not "Do whatever". Its a guidance towards living a life where you can feel like you are in control of your own moral standing. Please don't give this to Crowley, because like most of his beliefs, it was all stolen wholesale from much more interesting figures.

I owe at least a little bit to Crowley for conglomerating a lot of really interesting concepts, as well as bringing them to the fore, but I definitely think it's never a good idea to stop learning at the feet of a figurehead... Because cult-like figures NEVER develop their good ideas in a vacuum - it's either old notions recycled or appropriated from lesser-known peoples.
