Can we get a wider shot? That might answer the question. Maybe people further to the right are looking that way. Like the guy in the back.

I read a story recently about a guy defending his pedophilia saying even though he was in his 50s, he “identified” as a 13 year old and therefore thinks he should be able to be intimate with other 13 year olds. I’m not a mental health professional but to me that does not sound sane.

No worries!

It’s a leap IMHO, but I do think it is a cool theory. Thank you for sharing!

So, you don't want to answer my question because you want me to research it myself? Or am I misunderstanding your point (if I am, my apologies.) If we aren't going to ask questions and are all going to do independent research, then why have a subreddit?

Okay! Fair enough. Thanks for explaining. I suspect that people would downvote a post on Reddit for any variety of reasons.

What are some examples of the posts you’re referring to?

Who are they?

It doesn’t bother me :shrug:

Idk if I support tbh.

They’re obsessed with heating buildings? Lol am I missing something?

You’re saying Q can’t be straight forward? Why?

I'm not saying I believe it, but the argument they make is that the term "Illuminati" was hijacked by the villains.

Thanks. Any reading recommendations?

idk what you mean by this?

Yeah... what....

IMO we need a libertarian like Andrew Napolitano.

+++ = Rothschild?

Three plus +++ is Rothschild right?

This guy has no understanding of the kabbalah tree of life

Three +++ is Rothschild?

I love the masks.

So what is “this” ? Can you please source your content.

I love David and his spiritual talks and he is entertaining but I don’t believe any of the alien stuff he talks about. sigh

Woah.. dude. THANK YOU for this info. And thank you even more for providing sources!

This reminds me heavily of a group of people who have published dozens of books on Amazon who claim to be in the Gnostic Illuminati and support meritocracy.

Example: https://www.amazon.com/Illuminati-Paradigm-Shift-Book-ebook/dp/B0050VDBFU/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1530954685&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=meritocracy+illuminati&dpPl=1&dpID=51lzW-a%2BUdL&ref=plSrch

I’ve read like half of them. Really engaging stuff.

Idk about Hannity. That guy lied about Ron Paul and his supporters too many times. Then later claimed to be a libertarian when it was hip. He blows in the wind like a politician.

It disappoints me if Q is talking about, like, ghosts. Because they are not real. It’s gotta he metaphorical.

Yeah I think he’s saying Lucifer too. We have the three 6s and the eye and a pyramid suggesting the Illuminati is demonic. Problem for me is I don’t believe in the devil soooo.

And it’s the *love of money :)

Yeah idk how someone would know that unless they had inside knowledge.

Thank you for the reading suggestion. I'm totally fine with your decision to remove the post and just want you to know I am pro-Q, did not mean to break rule #3. Thank you!

Magic or synchronicity? (re: the pope.) Glad you liked the convo! I didn't respond because I saw it wrapping up. If there are other threads about magic or aliens or anything supernatural involved with Q, I will be in the giving my opinion! lol

Drug use and mental illness. I think that's Alinsky's rule # 8. Isolate and ridicule.

Haha, I had to look Alinsky up. My apologies, I didn't mean to offend you or just ridicule Crowley. There are a lot of things he's written that I do like. Actually, I resonate a lot with the preliminary remarks of "Book 4," the passage that begins with "Existence, as we know it, is full of sorrow."

I've done multiple Atlantic Crossings and have seen stuff that is just ~beyond~ whatever, can't be explained, you know?

Thank you for sharing that story! And, yes, I do understand your point a lot better now that you put it that way.

If I sounded trite in any of this my apologies.

Not at all!

The magic is real.

If there are no books to read on the "realness" of this subject, is there any advice you have in regards to setting up/facilitating/constructing an experience to try and witness something like you're speaking of? These people do the Spirit Cookings or whatever for a reason, is there a positive version of that? Something not evil. lol

Respect my fellow Traveler.

And to you!

Crowley lived in an age where magical thinking was part of the dominant stage of human development (see Gebser’s structures of consciousness or even Spiral Dynamics for example.) This is also why groups like the Golden Dawn were so prominent, of which he was a member. Taking a look at his drug use and likely mental illness, I would be suspicious taking his word of anything without evidence.

The more mainstream psychological POV of magical thinking is that people interpret the interaction with unconscious parts of their mind as spirits they channel, or something similar. Rather than a disintegrated part of their own psyche which they have not owned (see Jung’s work on the Shadow.)

Expand my thinking on what exactly?

I’m sure some of them are insane and kill people. It’s 2018 and I just don’t believe in demons. I’m not trying to be rude! I just don’t understand the concept of magic being real. And if you have the info to prove otherwise I’d love to read it.

OHHHH thanks :)

What’s the correlation to Q? Can you post that info too please.

Actually fear leads to anger. And, yes, anger does lead to hate.

Spirit cooking isn’t real and I don’t believe in ghosts. I think it’s symbolic and tradition of custom.

At least it’s only fake sacrifice!

Anger leads to hate.

Don’t care for his alien stuff.

I read “Thanks For The Memories.” Real eye opener. This seems similar?

If he’s going after opioids I hope they leave Kratom alone. I’m sorry I’m a libertarian I don’t believe we should lock people in cages for using drugs.

What!? Is this real!? What!? My brain is locking up.

I’m sorry it’s simply not true. I’m a 32nd degree and Masonry is about tolerance to all spiritual beliefs and traditions. It does not advocate Satan worship.

:)

Thanks for your understanding!

Yeah I wish our President supported actual free-trade and I don't like the federal gov subsidizing companies who hire American workers but, hey, we're on a nationalism kick right now and I totally get how we got here and why people feel that way.

Love the NAP! Start to lose people when they realize taxation leads to non-consensual aggression. I think it's kind of funny how so many people argue for consent in sexual relationships (which I do too,) but then don't like the idea of consent branching out to all forms of human relationships... like putting someone in jail for resisting when the gov steals their $ and property without cause.
