Mumbo Jumbo

Today many people have turned their thoughts to occult matters, due to a way of interpreting the date and it's significance to a misprint in modern translations of a number in a book in the christian bible. So, why not, I'll drop something in.
The main attraction of the number in question, in this case 666 (as opposed to 616, as older manuscripts of the book of Revelation had it) is it's association with the christian concept of "the devil". It's well acknowledged that the number was probably a simple code in Gematria referencing politicians of the time, most probably Emperor Nero, But you never know, ya know. Well, Gematria is an aspect of mystical Qabalism, as is the belief that Qabalistic techniques can be used to find the connections between everything, because, well, the philosophy says everything is connected after all, it's just hard to see how at first. So, in that spirit, I offer you a few subjects I've been thinking about lately. They are all connected. Not the same for you as for me, seemingly, at first. Your connections are yours though, and probably have nothing to do with why they are in my mind or how they fit together. It's not even important that they do or don't after all. Your milage may vary.

Corporate externilization.
Tulpa.
Psychological projection.
Cancer.
Cult.
Absurdism.

The last one isn't necessarily a dismissal of the rest, as that's too easy, unless it is, in which case I'd dismiss the rest if I was you.
Or would I?
There, now I'm giving out the annoying as good as I'm being served it by silly superstitious people.

qabalah, being.a.jerk, magick
