agathodaemonopus: electron dilation through iterative recursions of known combinatoric sequences, the basis of the occult is to progress the structure Theo-Geo-Metrically through an algorithmic oscillation of maximum potentiation and capacitance through changing the iterative feedback functions within the internal structure of the nested routines
DamnGoodChicken: the purpose of the occult is also to obscure things from laymen
DamnGoodChicken: thus concentrating and consolidating the ability to govern others in the hands of the select few who understand the given semantic programs of those who are already in charge
DamnGoodChicken: you have to agree to their stipulations before you've ever even put your foot in the door.
DamnGoodChicken: or, in this case, in order to converse, we have to be speaking the same language
DamnGoodChicken: ;)
DamnGoodChicken: the trick, you see, is that by the time you've come to understand the symbol set, you've already basically agreed to the premises that it sets forward
DamnGoodChicken: it's a self-containing symbol system used to indoctrinate potential assets to the perpetuation of the system, and alienate those who are not fit to do so.
DamnGoodChicken: and yes, it is this system that is actively engaged in making the rules of reality, for itself and for all others
DamnGoodChicken: although i suppose my view on it has a lot more to do with occam's razor than anything else.
DamnGoodChicken: the simplest explanation is probably the correct one.
DamnGoodChicken: and of course, the myth that perpetuates itself and justifies the actions of those who have the power
DamnGoodChicken: is that they have the sovereign right to that power
DamnGoodChicken: because they themselves are the masters
DamnGoodChicken: the occult is probably little more than an elaborate system of justification for this line of thinking.
DamnGoodChicken: ie 'magic' is only 'magic' to the vulgar.
DamnGoodChicken: if you were to travel back in time and show peasants from the middle ages a zippo they'd probably think you were a god or something.
DamnGoodChicken: understanding the way these illusions work can help you to reveal the 'man behind the curtain' to others, i guess. but all other 'magic' begets slavery.
DamnGoodChicken: anyway it's all just bullshit.
DamnGoodChicken: with the wand he creates the bullshit. with the cup he preserves the bullshit. with his sword he slices thru the bullshit and with the coin he buys into his own bullshit.
