CrazyModern, why do secret societies piss you off?
I like elite eclectic social networks, but I do not believe in secrecy, never have.
I see privacy and secrecy as a form of dishonesty because in Oneness or in "Heaven" all is known, all is revealed. Privacy and secrecy are lies, illusions, not really there in the end.
Ring, what drew me into this?
It started for me in kindergarten. I am a sort of "alien abductee or contact".
My father did magic tricks, he could breath fireballs, and pull a blanket through one ear and out the other. When I saw him do these things at such a young age I decided I wanted to learn about magic powers.
I was casting horoscopes at age 13 and memorized the Holy Books of Thelema at 18.
I joined the A.'.A.'. (Silver Star) under the tutelage of Martin P. Starr, and joined Horizon Lodge O.T.O. I quickly rose through the ranks and became a Master of the Temple in the early 90's. Attained to the grade of Magus in 1999 upon publication of my book TATOAT (The Absolute Truth of All Things).
What drove me away?
The politics of the secret government. Lies and slander. Greed. They tried to silence me, to blacklist me because I knew too much. I began leaking information and exposing the frauds. I broke away and started running my own crew, and they didn't like that very much.
You'd be amazed at how influential these people are, and manipulative. The disinformation they spread, the control they have over others who don't even know who they are. It's mind-boggling.
Recently I've concluded there is no way to beat them, no way to win, so I basically gave up.
I'm out of the game for now, I still have my eye on them, and they on me, but we don't play together so much anymore.
In fact, now that I've posted this, it is only a matter of time before they find me here. If you notice an odd influx of new members suddenly, it's them.
I do enjoy sharing what I know, and what I've been through. Few people are interested in this kind of thing so I rarely get to open up. Many even mock me or chose to believe I'm making up lies.
