O. Box 38-262, Petone, Wellington ---------------------------------------------------------- April 1992 E.V. No. 11 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OLHP COMPLAINT - UPHELD The OLHP's complaint against the Sunday News has been upheld by the Press Council. The article in question linked Satanism generally and the OLHP specifically (together with the Wairarapa based OSD) with child porn, paedophilia and ritual abuse. So blatant were the lies that I can only assume the Sunday News were sure that Satanists would run for cover rather than pursue the matter. The SN solicitor's response to the Press Council was pathetic - laughable, in fact. Much of the solicitor's letter comprised assertions that this editor is anti-christian and a Satanist, and gets rather moralistic in citing some of my antichristian comments. It was pointed out in my response that I never denied being a Satanist. An incredible attempt was made to claim that the article "does not state that the OLHP is responsible for child abuse or child pornography", and my complaint therefore has "no merit"!!! My reply was to ask what one is to make of the opening sentences of the article stating that, "a shocking satanic mail order business [sic] with links to child porn is flourishing in NZ'?" It was pointed out that the SN sources cited as 'proof' that the article was "carefully researched" were either unreliable or misquoted. In reply to the SN contention that the article was published in "the public interest", I asked "does muck-raking sensationalism comprising a mixture of outright lies, innuendo, guilt by association and misquotes constitute 'careful research published in the public interest'?" The Press Council decision was that "the article had expressly linked the OLHP with what was said to be a recently exposed child porn ring operating in Christchurch without providing any information to support the allegation. Accordingly the complaint was upheld." I hope the Nazarenes enjoyed this surprise Easter present. The correspondence involved in the dispute is published in a revised edition of Debunking the Witch-hunters, $10.00 from Realist Publications. --- newspaper article --- SUNDAY NEWS, APRIL 19, 1992 Press Council upholds complaint The New Zealand Press Council has upheld a complaint by Mr K.R. Bolton of Petone against the Sunday News. The complaint arose from an article published on 3 November 1991 headed "Satanism linked to child porn." The article claimed a "shocking satanic mail order business with links to child pornography is flourishing in New Zealand." The mail order business offered a correspondence course in satanism and was being run from a box number in Petone. The course was run by a group called the Order of the Left Hand Path (OLHP). Mr Bolton, the organiser of "magister" of the OLHP, said in complaint to the council that his organisation and himself had been linked, by clear implication with paedophiles operating in Christchurch. "Any such implication I consider to be a vile lie." In her reply, on behalf of the Sunday News, Wellington lawyer Sandra Moran said it should be noted no reference was made in the article to any named person regarding the OLHP. The article had been carefully researched and was published in the public interest. The Press Council found that the article had expressly linked the OLHP with what was said to be a recently exposed child porn ring in Christchurch without providing any information to support the allegation. Accordingly the complaint was upheld. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Uncle Setnakt Says Uncle Setnakt would like you to consider how you are already practicing divinity in your own life. The Right Hand Path says your life is ruled by a mechanical law, called karma or the will of god. We feel that your life is ruled by a mechanical law called the path of least resistance and that law can be overcome by conscious begins. This work helps you detect how you have already overcome this law and how much there still is to discover and integrate into your mind. 1. Analyze an intentional change you've made. Take something you did with awareness and desire (as opposed to some adaptation that circumstances forced you to make). Say for example a decision to move to a new home, because the new home offered you opportunities for privacy. See how you have prospered by obtaining your goals in a rational manner. Now analyze the same event looking for supra-rational benefits you have gained -- good things (and opportunities for growth) that have come into your life directly from your willed decision, but which in no way could be predicted as logically following. Analyze enough of your life and you will discover that when you have put these things into motion with your will you have exceeded mechanical chance. Concentrate these feelings of power in your life -- link the incidents one to another in your mind. 2. Analyze a moment of pure creativity. Take something you've made for no utilitarian reason. Doodles drawn while on the phone are excellent. Why did you enjoy making this pattern? Why is there happiness at creation? The joy of creation makes little if any biological sense, but makes a great deal of sense if we discover our being through our creativity. This is directly opposed to the, "No graven images." commandment. Become aware of how important it is to be a Creator. 3. Make note of those things that become self-sustaining. Note when any suggestion you've made becomes policy seemingly against the odds. I'm not talking about something you brought about in a normal work-a-day fashion, but those ideas of your that came into being on their own. For example you casually suggest a change in the way your cleaners handle their merchandise tracking. Although they tell you that they can't do what you say; next time you return your policy is in place. Each of these incidents shows that you have powers beyond the mechanical processes of the world. Note each and come to see yourself as a creator of movement in the world. 4. Pray to yourSelf. Look through your life to find some prayers that were answered by the Right Hand Path god of your choice. Maybe one day you prayed for your car to start or for health to return or to get luck on a date. As well as you possibly can remember the words and practices. Then when you are in the same situation repeat that prayer -- except entirely to yourSelf, making references to no god but you. Continue this practice until you have results. Come to see yourself as the cause for all seeming miracles in your life. It is you, the self created god, not some divinely appointed destiny. 5. Encourage the worship of yourself by others. Now don't be a prig about it like IHVH -- don't insist on no gods but me -- etc. Certainly don't be a jealous god, you can help others in their self deification. Be sure you have a nice birthday party, that others have chance to praise you when you do well etc. Then when you've created a little friend and fan club, begin to practice the simple Lesser Black Magic of telling the story that people who do good things for you have good things happen to them (and the converse -- eventually these people's unconscious Greater Black Magic will make this a condition of the world). Continue this practice at least until you can discover that some good has come your way because some one you do not know (directly) has been told you're a worthy individual by some one else you do not know directly. This will show that your presence is equal in force to any mankind's created gods -- that faith in you is strong to create a missionary movement. Of course this should be done secretly and subtly. If you outwardly proclaim your godhood crucifixion can result. Christianity may be understood as one self deified individual letting his practices get out of hand. Jesus is an example of Black Magician without ethics. 6. Practice your godhood among your followers. When one of your fans is in trouble, magically use the Power of your Name to help him. Not out of pity or compassion but to Understand the nature of the name of a divine being. Once again keep this practice to yourself. Do this until you have results. This illustrates the power of the Word of Moses IHVH in which a fan club or political/cultural organization can create laws beyond the natural, an identity, and a bargaining position with the unknown by use of a Name. This not only produces an objective change in the world as an example of your own divinity, it will begin to illustrate the power of the word to open new potentials of power within you. This practice is highly recommended for someone who wishes to use words to explore himSelf/herSelf through such means as the Enochian Aethyrs. Be sure you have result here first. 7. Mythologize your birth in the manner of Christ, Buddha, Zoroaster etc. Learn to see your physical birth as the manifestation of the divine. You may wish to use a number of different masks in this. See yourself as a tribal hero returned, a god incarnated, or a visitor from another world. Play with these mythologies -- remembering to discard them once they've awakened in you the true knowledge that you are beyond the circumstances of flesh and history. Seek out the facts of your birth to feed your mythology with facts, create a mental list of all the historical things that had to happen in order for you to be born.; For example in Uncle Setnakt's case the Irish potato famine and the temporary existence of an ice bridge. These stories will allow you to work upon yourSelf and the world from the same basis as the aforementioned magi, but it will keep you from losing yourSelf to any mythology not of your creation (or recreation). 8. Create other beings. One of the signs of godhood is the ability to create other beings. Look through traditional magic systems concerning such creations -- whether the Judaic Golems or the Tibetan tulpa -- create an entity to accomplish a certain task and then return itself to you and offer itself up as sacrifice to your godhead. Watch without otherwise interfering in this task is accomplished and when it is await the return of the created one. You'll discover that you can create self willed entities and eventually you may wish to create and not absorb them. This will prove that you have all the powers of a god, and will direct your creations toward the cause of human freedom rather than any short term purposes. And even then you will birth a few monsters. 9. After you've become aware of your godhood announce it to all the worlds within and without. Perform a ritual after your fashion in which the message is, "I abrogate all rituals except those I create. There is no magic done in any galaxy save that it empowers me -- this is the law of the only true god! I am the measure of beauty, there is no beauty except through me. I am the Truth, I am the Way, I am the Life. There are no gods before me, there is no power equal to my desire. I have always existed and by the power of my Name I am come to full awareness. All the universe is destroyed and re-created bearing the mark of what is newly of me. Naught exists save to teach me, to please me, and to give me a cutting edge to my own Becoming. The dead gods of mankind arise to do me homage and I blow them away like dust when their play called history has offered all it can to me." Uncle Setnakt hopes you have a pleasant day. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What is the Satanic Vision by H D Baynes OLHP IIIx Chaos, disorder and disfunction the vote is cast aside. With central Government gone the Left and Right will fall, these are just the symptoms they are the noose around the neck. Now the Dark Lord's age has come evolution has begun. Autonomy not anarchy is where the Black Arts lead; Laws of strength will bond the state not the Liberal's curse. Unlimited Potential the tree that bears the fruit; Science and the Arts the measure of the proof. The Path not trodden by the herd is where the future waits. The Autonomous Satanic State. MIGHT The piteous cries of conquered foes are music to my ear. Victory proceeds from ruthlessness and overcoming fear. Man-made myths will stay the hand lead Strong men into slavery Might Is Right, Instinctual Law Prosperity stems from Bravery. A hard dose of Reality a cure-all for the Lie fight, win your battles here below forget about the Sky! By Predragon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BEYOND THE SATANIC HOAX by Priest Larry Evans Of The Temple of Set The Satanic scare of the 80's is all but over now in the United States. We've seen it's profit motive diminished as it's credibility has been attacked by even those with no Satanic interests. I imagine "the scare" will run it's course in the rest of the world then it will, except for a few zealots, simply die out. It seems to me anyway, that we Satanists really showed them what we were made of. Now that the hysteria is starting to die off one naturally wonders "what's next?" As for me I plan on going back to the basic of what Satanism is really all about. To me this means the study and practice of Black Magic. As we evolve as Satanic Magicians we find ourselves shedding old skins, so to speak, and going on to newer maturity. My personal file on the, what might be better called, the Christian hoax of the 80's, is literally hundreds of pages in length. It consumed countless hours of my time at it, the hoax that is, managed to simply distract me from what it is that I really needed to be doing and the doing I'm talking about is the application of Black Magic. I would challenge each of my Satanic brothers be they Setian or not to move forward in the area of Becoming. We are not a bunch of wrong doers. That is established. We are talented and charged with special abilities not commonly found in conventional society. Let us move forward to act on these abilities so that we may position ourselves to influence the planet as is appropriate. It may be necessary for the Satanic religion to develop itself so we can exert the kind of influence that will prevent another "Witch Hunt" be said hunt against us or any other decent human endeavor. I think one side benefit to all the Christian hoax of the 80's is that is helped me hone my skills and strengthen my perceptive abilities in areas that heretofore I had taken for granted. For this new edge I am grateful. I've looked at other religious movements and some of the things they've done. I'm not suggesting we need copy them but consider this: Many religions have their own Universities. Some even have their own Hospitals. If, for example, you were the president of lets say the biggest business in your town and you'd graduated lets say the God Only Knows University, wouldn't you know that the God Only Knows University graduates the finest job candidates found anywhere? You went there so it has to be good right? Well, lets ask ourselves, isn't this true to a large extent? Of course it is. Is it fair? Why not? Would you want to work back to back with someone that was brought up in a system that taught values contrary to your own? I certainly don't wish for this. As time marches forward I think it will become imperative for Satanists to become the captains of business, industry, and probably government. I constantly ask myself what if. What if the world was mostly Right Hand Path people controlled by Left Hand Path managers and leaders? I also wonder how this application of Greater Magic would affect the balance of things? Would things be better and if so for whom? Can I develop the skills to shift back and forth between RHP workers and LHP associates? I have no doubt they will be capable of telling that something is different about me but, I wonder, can I hone my skills to the point that this is really not detectable to most humans? Would such a thing be legal? I'd enjoy hearing your thoughts on this subject.

It is an Australian group concerned with the development of Self-knowledge. DC draws from a broad range of esoteric traditions, including witchcraft, shamanism, paganism, voudoun, chaos magick, runology, Thelema... DC productions are of a highly professional quality & include a computer network, telephone hotline, and the hosting of national pagan festivities. Publications include Dark Cycle, and OZ Pagan. The current issue of OZ Pagan carries a debate among pagans as to whether Satanists should be accepted as fellow pagans. DC organiser Tim Hartridge argues that they should, & came out publicly in defence of Satanists at the height of the recent hysteria in Australia, giving numerous media interviews and making representations to people of influence. DC is non-dogmatic, but does have the following principles: Recognition of an eternal metaphysical force behind nature; this force has dark and light aspects, both equally valid; These aspects manifest in a variety of deities, demons, etc.; Nature is the outer form of this force, thus all matter is sacred; Evil is ignorance, and has no metaphysical reality; the aim of existence is to achieve Self-knowledge; Self-knowledge can be achieved through a wide variety of spiritualities; ritual initiation is simply the acknowledgment of personal experience.

Not surprisingly, the Order has created something of a storm, with a record 40 citizens attending a Council meeting, concerned that Miller had been given a license to run a mail order occult business. To a local newspaper Miller described Satanism as "basically atheist, since we do not worship a god. Instead we recognize ourselves as the creator of gods. We do not appeal to a higher power but instead to our Higher Self." Among numerous comments by locals, Const. Reid of the RCMP stated: "the people of Stewart can be assured that any report of Satanism will be investigated appropriately." ...As though Satanism is illegal. Once again we see the spectacle of a bigoted policeman interfering in philosophical and metaphysical questions!

This way involves three essential stages and these exemplify the spirit of that way and the individuals who follow it. The first is direct experience, the second is direct practice and the third self-development. The first involves direct experience of both the external 'world' and the inner (or psychic) 'world' through striving to achieve certain goals both practical and magickal. The second involves using 'practical' (or causal) and 'magickal' (or acausal) energies to manipulate others, situations and energies in a practical way - producing changes in accord with certain goals. The third involves beginning the process again but starting from the new level of self-understanding and ability attained - persuing different (and probably more complex) goals. A Satanist is an individual explorer - following in the footsteps of others (and perhaps using their guide books) but always seeking further horizons, daring to defy convention (in ideas as well as in morals and attitude) yet part of an evolutionary succession enabling what is experienced to be understood and become beneficial. For this reason, a genuine Satanist understands tradition as important and necessary - the culmination of centuries of insight and experience, a useful guide which enables further progress and exploration: a starting point for that inner and outer journey which is begun by Initiation, as well as a map of the way chosen and followed. This tradition is not sacrosanct - but it does possess a validity until the individual reaches the stage where the unique genius within each individual has been brought to fruition enabling the creation (from experience and self-insight) of a unique way and fulfilling of a unique Destiny. In magickal terms, this is the stage of Internal Adept, where the unique Destiny is made known (dis-covered) and where the individual Initiate has developed the talents necessary to fulfil it by a following of the previous stages - a stage reached from between three to five years after Initiation. The tradition (explicated in the 'seven-fold sinister way') provides only a beginning - it is for the individual to go beyond it, toward the dangers and rewards of the Abyss. It is, however, necessary - since it is, in one sense, a 'short-cut': enabling self-development to be achieved far quicker than would be the case without it as well as fully enabling the explication of individual potential. This does not mean that following it is easy - the path may be shorter, but it is just as dangerous (and in some places, more so). It is a mountain path to the summit rather than a meandering valley path, and enables the horizon, the other mountains waiting to be conquered, to be seen - as they cannot be seen from the wooded valleys below. But each new Initiate must walk this path - alone. And for each it is a new experience, a process of direct learning and a personal achievement, for only a very few have ever venture that way before and stood atop the summit that is 'Internal Adept' to see in the distance the still higher peaks that wait beyond the Abyss. What is important is following that path - and going beyond it, toward the Abyss - actually undertaking the journey and experiencing in real time what is encountered and seen: of being taken to the very limits of your endurance and abilities. No one can do this for you - just as the path does not lead to some pleasant grove where you sit at the feet of some 'Master' listening to their past experiences and fables. It does not involve you staying comfortably 'at home' with the security of your known world and friends and ideas, just as it is not a 'mental' journey done in comfortable surroundings and with no physical effort or danger. It is practical, and direct - and involves physical and psychic hardship, and while you may be a little soft when you start, you will not be so when you succeed, just as if you believe you are tough enough now, you will be rudely awakened, Is this what you really want? - Order of Nine Angles, Box 109, Newport, Gwent, Wales UK. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CAMPAIGN AGAINST CHRISTIAN CHILD ABUSE - THE NAZARENES REACT - 18 February 1992 Apostolic Church Hamilton Dear Sir/Madam I refer to your leaflet "Christian Child Abuse" - which appeared without our permission on our church noticeboard. I share your concern and abhorrence of the rise of sexual abuse in our society and the incidence of it within the wider church. A proportion of the counselling we do is helping people deal with and walk free from abuse in their past. I do however, have some real concerns about the contents of your leaflet. Your opening comment that Christianity encourages perversion such as child molestation shows either a distinct knowledge of Christianity and the Bible or a deliberate misrepresentation of the Christian Faith. The Bible encourages committed monogamous marriages with full healthy sexual relations based on a commitment to serve one another. The Bible talks of celibacy as a special gifting some have from God in order o be more free to serve Him (e.g. freedom of movement, time, availability etc). Jesus attitude towards children was that "the kingdom of God belongs to such as these" (Mark 10: 13-16) and warns of the perils of "offending one of these little ones". Your proposal that Christianity represses "normal" physical drives as "sins" is mysterious to me - since you go on to quote Christ's discussion of men lusting after women - I can only take from that, that you consider looking at a woman lustfully (looking at her as a "sex object") is a "normal" physical drive to be encouraged?!? In our pornography soaked society, I would say His words are rather timely. It would be more accurate I propose that child molestation is a result of people's addiction to things such as pornography. The Bible teaches self control, learning how to positively channel our normal physical drives, living a life of love to one another. You then make a large logic leap of saying that perversion is the result of not giving vent to "normal" physical desires - that's pretty shaky ground. Perversion is perversion and not necessarily tied into normal physical drives. Most child abusers/molesters for example have been abused or molested themselves as children. You also totally misquote Paul by taking one small part of his discussion in 1 Corinthians 7. You neglect to quote the next verse, where he encourages people to marry and enter into normal sexual relations as a safeguard against the prevalent immorality. Once again I must ask you: are you being intentionally misleading in order to prove a point, or have you just now done your reading? I find your leaflet misleading, untidy and inaccurate. If you do share our deep concern over the issue of sexual abuse in our society (yes and among Christians), you could I think find more effective ways of helping to deal with it. If however, your leaflet is a thinly veiled attack on Christianity or one particular church - then please be honest about it. Your contact address is Realist Publications, I encourage you to get real about this issue. If you have been abused yourself and are writing/publishing out of hurt, I encourage you to let the real Christ of the Bible heal you and set you free. Please note I write as one concerned about this issue. I have prayed and cried with numbers of people who have been victims of abuse and we have seen Christ set them free. Graham Wilson Youth Pastor Hamilton Apostolic Church -- reply -- 2 March 1992 Dear Mr Wilson In reply to your letter of 18 February, I apologise for the posting of the christian child abuse leaflet on your church noticeboard without permission. I shall instruct my supporters of the Campaign Against Christian Child abuse to seek such permission before undertaking such activities in future. Given christianity's history of upholding tolerance and freedom of thought, I am in no doubt that all christian ministers will readily agree to allow such a display of alternative viewpoints for the enlightenment of their congregations. "Know the truth, and the truth shall set you free", right? Hamilton in particular is noted as a have of christian tolerance and open-mindedness, as shown by the wonderful reception given to Horus and Sobek last year by your church and others. As to your comments on the leaflet: You accuse me of taking quotes out of context in order to prove my point. If we consider Paul further, we find his ideal was that we would have "all me were even as I myself" - celibate. His recommendation of marriage was for those who couldn't repress their natural drives. What an ennobling outlook on marriage : "Oh well, screw if you just, but get married first so you don't burn in hell". No, I am not defending pornography, nor do I regard women as "sex objects". The quote from Matt. 5:28 is not as simple as you suggest. It is a reflection of the Judaeo-christian historical and cultural repression of sensual aesthetics, as epitomized by the Greek culture. To quote Nietzsche: "In christianity... the body is despised, hygiene repudiated as sensuality; the Church even resists cleanliness (the first measure taken by the christians after the expulsion of the Moors was the closure of the public baths of which Cordova alone possessed 270)..." For a christian to accuse anyone of anti-woman attitudes is the height of hypocrisy. Ref. Gen 3:16, I Cor. 11:9, Eph. 5:22-23, I Tim. 2:11-12. Your claim that christianity positively channels normal physical drives is not supported by christian history. Among the principle christian personalities we find that Matthew of Avignon was awakened one morning by a young woman opening his bedroom door. He was so scared of surrendering to his carnal thoughts, he immediately stripped and whipped her for placing him in moral jeopardy. St. Jerome, a desert hermit, fantasised about young woman until "his mind was aflame with desire, and lust seared my flesh. Helplessly, I lay at the feet of christ struggling to subdue my rebellious body". Such psychotic actions are the fairly predictable outcome of attempting to follow Jesus' absurd dictum against 'mental adultery'. It is ironic that on the day you wrote your letter, "Truth" came out with a feature on an Assembly of God pastor convicted of 12 charges of child sexual abuse. The police had dropped other charges, presumably because of the pressure the Church had applied to parents. It is his church pressure and the attempts to hide the guilty among the clergy which, among other reasons, make christian child abuse particularly alarming. Sexual abuse is not the only form of christian child abuse. In 1990 a diabetic girl died after her parents denied her insulin, on the advice that their pastor had been informed by god she had been cured. There are numerous examples of children being beaten ruthlessly by zealous parents or christian cults, quoting scripture. (Prov. 23:13-14). There was even a recent case in the USA of a woman plucking an eye from a boy, as a literal interpretation of Matt. 5:29. All this is fully documented, mainly by court proceedings. The fact that you couldn't part with $5.00 to obtain a copy of the booklet Christian child Abuse - The Reality, indicates you're more concerned with the defence of your dogma, than with a concern for the young victims of a sick creed. In regard to the leaflet being a "thinly veiled" attack on christianity and some kind of dishonesty on my part, I can't really see how much more clear I can be. I don't seem anything "veiled", thinly or otherwise. By the way, no, I was not myself a victim of child abuse. Fortunately, I did not waste too much of my youth around the sickly influence of the "men of god". ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LEX TALIONIS Lex Talionis - The Law of Retribution. Now that the socio-economic system is under stress and the Government has been forced to take steps to reduce the Welfare State, a certain type has been unleashed. This type, seen throughout history, comes to the surface in conditions of societal breakdown. In now way related to the plundering warrior, the freebooting highwayman or pirate, this is the untermensch - the Underman - the chandala outcaste written of in terms of foreboding by Nietzsche and Lothrop Stoddard (The Revolt Against Civilization - The Menace of the Under-Man, London 1922). It finds its political expression in Bolshevism and other revolts of the sewer (in Rome it was christianity). The Chandala is an atavism which cannot feel at ease amidst culture. In aristocratic societies this out-case was kept in check by force; today it has been bribed to a relatively passive state by welfare cheques, with the paradox that the State has actually subsidized it to breed. Now that the State purse is empty, that the social diversion of full employment has also gone, the chandala emerge to prey on those who are likely to be the easiest mark, such as the elderly. For the criminality of the type is in no way daring or heroic. Lex Talionis is the defence mechanism of healthy society since time immemorial. It was the "eye for an eye" of the Mosaic code and of pagan justice. Today we have liberalism and christianity to preserve the untermensch; a travesty of the law of our forefathers which drove such to extinction. Despite the Fundamentalists, christian concepts of justice are NOT based on the Mosaic code of Israelite tribalism, they are a product of Israelite decadence, which sought to reverse the Israelite code, just as it reversed the code of the pagan Romans, Norse, et al. The difference is that Israel has never accepted its false Messiah; he was instead foisted onto our pagan ancestors. Whatever else one may think of the State of Israel, it is the only one that continues to execute Lex Talionis both domestically and in its foreign relations: an enemy of Israel is not safe anywhere in the world. The attitude of liberalism and christianity is the same: "resist not evil", "judge not", "turn the other cheek", "he who is without sin....". Our society, sapped by the weakness, cannot adequately respond to the danger within. The social organism is too sickly to excrete its waste products. It is time to return to the two laws of our forefathers: Eugenics, of which we have spoken in the past, and Lex Talionis, lest everything of value (and everyone) be engulfed by a sea of inferiority. Hear now the Law: "Hate for hate and ruth for ruth, Eye for eye and tooth for tooth. Scorn for scorn and smite for smite, Love for love and guile for guile. War for war and woe for woe, Blood for blood and blow for blow." - Ragnar Redbeard, Might Is Right, 1895 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LETTERS We first saw The Watcher yesterday, and find it quite impressive. I'm surprised I haven't come across you before; you have something to say, and say it well. It was wonderful to see you share my deep and abiding hatred of xtianity. Long ago, I was a xtian minister, so as you may imagine, I know these twisted people more than most. I saw in your journal you have had difficulties with the media also. I was 'exposed' in '89 by Hinch, soon followed up by woman's mags and the papers on the 'polygamous witch', 'Satanic monster', blah, blah, blah. We are bringing out our own journal soon, so your effort has encouraged us. Greeting to all our brothers and sisters, - Brandon Smith, The Black Temple, P O Box 47 Fortitude Valley, Brisbane Queensland 4006 Australia. I very much enjoyed reading The Watcher. Your principles and ideals seem to be very practical. There are more branches of Satanism than there are in any other religions. From what I have seen, though, your form seems to be one of the most sound! - C Miller, Embassy of Lucifer, Canada. Thankyou for the Satanic Tarot. I find it a very useful device and refreshingly free of Qabbalistic hoc-pocus. As a tool for pathworking, I have found it to be much easier than Runes, etc. The book Christian Child Abuse is a frighteningly informative document. Those christian scum must have nowhere to hide; they and their bosses must be held to account. H D Baynes, OLHP Priest IIIx, NZ. I have completed the Neophyte and Adept courses... At first it was very hard to give up my old habits, but now I have stopped the use of alcohol, and started the health programme, and I have never felt this good!... - J.T. Finland (Editor: the above is an example of what Satanism is really about). I have been involved in witchcraft for several years and am a High Priest.
