There is of course no reason why a 30-yr-old can’t have a crucial job if they are sufficiently talented, but can you imagine that someone NOT from Eton and Oxford would ever have been given such a job?
Brad Pitt has bought the rights allowing him to make a film of Stewart’s life. Stewart likes to compare himself to Lawrence of Arabia.

******
Have you noticed that the Labour candidates have almost identical profiles to the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats? They all go to Oxford and Cambridge and take degrees in PPE, history or English. They work as political researchers for the current crop of politicians, and then they themselves become members of Parliament as soon as opportunities arrive. They never work in the real world, never mix with real people and yet these are the people elected to represent the people. What a joke!
******
The Piers Gaveston Society.
Another example of an elite, secret Oxford club is the Piers Gaveston Society, dedicated to luxury dining, drinking and drug-fuelled excess. Membership is restricted to 12 specially chosen undergraduates. Hugh Grant, the buffoonish British actor, was a member. An enormous number of successful English actors come from extremely privileged backgrounds, and are often the children of previous generations of well-connected, influential and wealthy actors (nepotism and cronyism at their worst!). Another famous member of Piers Gaveston was Count Gottfried von Bismarck, a descendant of Otto von Bismarck, the famous Prussian “Iron Chancellor”, showing the international dimension of the Elite’s activities at Oxford.
The society’s members love indulging in bizarre sexual extravaganzas. They organize bacchanalian parties for hundreds of friends, choosing secret luxury venues such as grand country mansions (in the manner of the movie Eyes Wide Shut). They are treated to copious champagne, caviar, drugs, followed by an orgy. They regard decadence and debauchery as the highest good.
The Millionaires’ Death Club by Mike Hockney is based on clubs such as the Bullingdon Club and the Piers Gaveston Society. These people think they were born to rule the world.
******
The Piers Gaveston Society was named in honour of the favourite (and gay lover) of the English King Edward II. Edward’s mighty army was humbled at the Battle of Bannockburn in Scotland in 1314 CE by a much smaller army under Robert the Bruce, the man who succeeded William Wallace as the leader of Scottish resistance to the English. Bannockburn is a superb example of a small, well-disciplined, well-drilled force under brilliant leadership inflicting a catastrophic defeat on an army three times larger. Anyone who has seen Braveheart will be familiar with the deadly archers used by the English, plus their heavy cavalry (the medieval equivalent of tanks). The English had some 3,000 expertly trained armoured knights, riding large, specially bred horses. The Scots had enormously fewer archers with inferior bows, and only a few hundred small horses serving as light cavalry. The Scots shouldn’t have stood a chance, but they made maximum use of the terrain and conditions to neutralize all of the advantages of the English army. Bannockburn established Scotland as an independent nation until 1707 when Scotland agreed to enter into union with England to form Great Britain.

Meritocracy – how it works in practical terms:
MANY PEOPLE THINK MERITOCRACY is something vague and abstract, but it couldn’t be simpler. What it does straight away is to remove the right of everyone over 18 to vote. People no longer have an automatic vote. Instead, a new voting system is established in which people are permitted multiple votes related to subjects in which they have demonstrable ability and knowledge i.e. by virtue of academic qualifications or work experience. Instead of voting for a politician in your geographical area, you vote for experts in your own fields of expertise. So, for example, if you have an economics degree then you are allowed to vote for which people should be running the economy. Anyone who doesn’t have an economics degree or doesn’t work in an economics job or can’t otherwise demonstrate their expertise in economics, doesn’t get a vote regarding economics. If you want to vote, get qualified. Otherwise, you will be deemed ignorant of the subject, hence it would be absurd to give you a vote regarding a subject about which you know nothing. You can have as many votes as your areas of evident merit. If you have no merits, you get no votes.
In a meritocracy, politics based on geographical constituencies and on political parties vanishes. All people standing for elections are independents. Their tasks are restricted to their own areas of merit. The only restriction applied to the policies they devise is that those policies must be consistent with the Meritocratic Constitution. For example, if economists are mandated to ensure that the economy is to be run for the good of the Commonwealth and to ensure that no cartels or elites are allowed to come into existence, any policies they enact that contradict the Constitution will be reversed, and the Meritocratic Supreme Court will fire them. New elections will then be held to find a new set of economists to run the economy meritocratically.
This is a simple system. It abolishes politics as we currently experience it (and endure it). It places merit at the core of the new politics. It gives everyone a vote according to their merits, and the unmeritorious get no vote at all since they don’t deserve it. It ensures that the Meritocratic Constitution is obeyed.
Make no mistake, meritocracy is the culmination of the political dialectic, the inevitable replacement of democracy (plutocracy). It is the essential precursor of the drive towards the Community of Gods and the Society of the Divine.
Meritocracy is the system by which humanity is guided in Star Trek. If we ever want to travel through space as they did in the TV series, we must put human excellence rather than the wealth of the privileged at the top of our priorities. Money must, eventually, be entirely removed from the equation. Money has allowed an entirely fake idea of merit to be established. Your “worth” has been tied to the amount of money you have rather than your actual talents, yet those born into privilege immediately have more money (hence more “merit”) than everyone else despite having done nothing. Merit is about YOUR skills, not about what your parents did or how much money they had when you were born.
It’s time to get real. It’s meritocracy or nothing. Democracy – a disguised plutocracy – must be smashed to smithereens. Modern democracy is the most sinister and insidious political ideology ever devised. It has allowed a privileged elite to remain in permanent power while pretending to serve the people. Never has there been a more fraudulent, deceitful and hypocritical political system. The idiot masses have swallowed the propaganda of the rich and become the slaves of the rich, while imagining themselves free. In terms of psychological manipulation of the gullible, democracy represents GENIUS. It is the best and most successful tactic ever devised by the elite. They have constructed the perfect means to dominate, exploit and manipulate the people while giving the impression they are doing it all in the name of the people and for the people. Hitler, the greatest fan of the BIG LIE, couldn’t have created a bigger lie than democracy.
******
It should be emphasized that it’s not the politicians who win democratic elections that run democracy. The power elite behind the curtain pull the strings, and make their puppets dance. Some of the politicians even know what’s going on, though they never make any real attempt to change anything, and they would be assassinated if they did (like JFK). American President Theodore Roosevelt said, “No man should receive a dollar unless that dollar has been fairly earned. Every dollar received should represent a dollar’s worth of service rendered – not gambling in stocks, but service rendered. The really big fortune, the swollen fortune, by the mere fact of its size acquires qualities which differentiate it in kind and degree from what is possessed by men of small means. Therefore, I believe in a graduated income tax on big fortunes, and in another tax which is far more easily collected and effective – a graduated inheritance tax on big fortunes, safeguarded against evasion and increasing rapidly in amount with the size of the estate.”
We agree, except we would make inheritance tax absolute. Everyone knows what has to be done – the rich must have their fortunes removed from them and the class of super rich should be legally prevented from coming into existence ever again – so why don’t we all get on with it rather than babbling about 9/11, love, mystical hogwash, New Age bullshit and all the rest of the nonsense that stops people from standing up to the rich and seizing their wealth?
__________
The New Education:
We need a new education system where people LOVE to learn. As Austrian physicist Victor Weisskopf said, “Knowledge has to be sucked into the brain, not pushed into it.” You have to be motivated to learn otherwise you won’t learn a thing. The sausage factory “learning” of State schools is a joke. Private schools carefully cultivate every precious student (whose parents are paying a fortune for him to be there – and they want a high return on investment). If it’s good enough for those cunts, it’s good enough for the rest of us, right?! If you accept second-class treatment, you become second class. If you want the best, demand the best. The rich do, so why don’t you?
___________
The Jewish lobby:
In June 2010, Helen Thomas, the longest-serving reporter in the White House press corps, with a reputation for fearlessly speaking the truth to the powerful, said to a rabbi that Israeli Jews should “get the hell out of Palestine” and go home to “Poland, Germany, and America and everywhere else.” Her career was instantly terminated. She was compelled to fall on her sword and announce her retirement. Why is no one in the American media allowed to ask a perfectly reasonable question about Israel? Anyone who does not provide unequivocal support for Zion is shut down by the elite.
__________
Your Moral Choice:
Abrahamists choose to define themselves as people who would willingly kill their own children if “God” ordered it. Is that how you think a moral, rational person should define themselves?
The very first thing the God of Abraham sought to establish – his defining principle – was that his followers should be willing to kill anyone, even members of their own family to show their loyalty and obedience to him. Can any morally good person accept a religion that starts off with murder? Why didn’t Abraham’s God proclaim the opposite message – that you should never kill anyone?

“Avoid London – Area Closed – Turn on Radio.”
This was the chilling, apocalyptic sign that appeared over motorways leading to London on 7 July 2005, the day London was attacked by Islamic suicide bombers.
Motorways all over the world will be showing such signs in the next few years as the global economy collapses and violence erupts in every country.

The First Outbreak of the Global Revolution:
“If the head of the stream is dirty, the whole stream is dirty.” –Jamaican Proverb
Where will the final Revolution break out first? Fittingly, it will be Great Britain, the birthplace of capitalism and which spread its noxious creed around the world via its evil Empire. All of the ingredients are in place for meltdown in the UK. The country is ruled by an unaccountable head of State – the Queen – and a government of ridiculously posh, privileged, millionaire toffs who have been privately educated and know nothing about ordinary people. They are gleefully presiding over horrific spending cuts, particularly in the State sector (which they despise). Unions have vowed to fight. Students rioted last year over massive increases in tuition fees. An astonishing degree of anomie exists amongst the underclass. Violent, feral gangs are everywhere. There are tensions between different immigrant communities. The far right is growing. The police have been shown to be a) inept and b) corrupt, obsessed with pandering to Rupert Murdoch’s evil media machine. The “expenses scandal” has shown the politicians to be grotesquely corrupt, spending all of their time trying to rip off the public purse. They too have been shown to be the puppets of Rupert Murdoch. Because of the phone and computer hacking scandal, Murdoch himself is now holed below the waterline. All of the institutions of Britain have failed. All authority figures are held in contempt. There has been a total collapse in the people’s confidence in the ruling elite. This will be magnified as recession and enormous spending cuts devastate the economy. Black kids in ghettos will rise up, overwhelm the police, and the rest of the country will join them. Britain is long overdue a revolution.
The British government has supported the overthrow of despicable Arab dictators by armed force, but what will they do when they confront the reality that the British people now regard them as a despicable dictatorship? Will their armed bullyboys and the army protect them? Will their privileged corrupt judges continue to support them? Britain is rotten to the core. The politicians, judges, media, police and army have all been exposed for the corrupt criminals they are. They are not a legitimate ruling regime. They are a tyranny, just like the tyrannies of Islam. And it has always been an established principle of modern social contract theory that the people have the legal right to overthrow regimes that are acting against the interests of the people. PRIVILEGE itself is a conspiracy against the people and a fundamental breach of the social contract. All governments of privilege are ENEMIES OF THE PEOPLE, and it is lawful for the people to depose them.
“In order then that the social compact may not be an empty formula, it tacitly includes the undertaking, which alone can give force to the rest, that whoever refuses to obey the general will shall be compelled to do so by the whole body. This means nothing less than that he will be forced to be free; for this is the condition which, by giving each citizen to his country, secures him against all personal dependence. In this lies the key to the working of the political machine; this alone legitimizes civil undertakings, which, without it, would be absurd, tyrannical, and liable to the most frightful abuses.” –Jean-Jacques Rousseau, The Social Contract

What was the fatal mistake of the elite? As we said, it was to over promise and under deliver. You always pay the price of raising expectations too high. The perfect images of the Society of Spectacle promised heaven but delivered hell.

Why are there so many different religions?:
“O senseless man who cannot make a worm, and yet makes gods by dozens.” –Michel de Montaigne
There is only one true religion – Illumination. Why? Because Illumination proclaims MATHEMATICS as the ontological AND epistemological basis of reality. Nothing exists that is not, at root, mathematical. All order, organisation, patterns, formulas, equations and information are manifestations of mathematics. A non-mathematical universe is impossible. All genuine knowledge is mathematical since mathematics alone is TRUTH.
Existence provides objective truth and subjective truth. The latter is mere opinion and is mostly wholly false. Objective truth is mathematical. Science succeeds because it reflects mathematics. Illumination succeeds by extending science to ontology i.e. Illuminism declares that mathematics isn’t merely a tool for helping us to uncover the patterns of reality, mathematics IS reality. Zero, infinity and the imaginary number have actual existence – they are not mathematical devices used to help us solve problems in an instrumental sense (instrumentalism says that getting the right answer is more important than understanding what the answer actually means). ZERO = the SOUL. INFINITY = THE CAPACITY OF THE SOUL IN THE MENTAL DOMAIN. THE IMAGINARY NUMBER = THE ORIGIN OF TIME.
Once you extend science to accommodate the soul, you have turned an atheistic, materialistic ideology into a glorious religion based on mathematical idealism. Zero, as an ontological realty, as an entity that truly exists (and of which there are infinite instances), is the mathematical guarantor of true religion. Zero explains the soul, God, consciousness and the afterlife. Science has failed to address fundamental reality because it has lacked the imagination and mathematical nous to confront and understand the reality and meaning of zero. Materialism asserts that zero doesn’t exist and the whole of the materialistic ideology flows from that one assertion. The whole of idealism, on the other hand, is based on the real existence of zero. Descartes, without realising what he had done, made the fundamental equation of reality crystal clear when he said that there were two substances: matter (extended) and mind (non-extended). As soon as you realise that Descartes’ non-extended mind is nothing other than the domain of ZERO as an ontological reality, you have solved the primary mystery of existence. As for matter (extension) – it is simply all of the numbers greater than zero. Mind and matter together constitute COMPLETE ontological reality. They constitute COMPLETE MATHEMATICS. Scientific Materialism is a subset of Illuminism because it is incomplete mathematics whereas Illuminism is complete mathematics. That’s the world in a nutshell. It’s all in the math!

The Emperor’s New Clothes?
Australian Keara O’Neil was shopping in an “upmarket” fashion store called GASP when she was on the receiving end of rudeness from a snobbish member of staff. She complained to GASP’s head office and this was the reply she received:
Dear Keara O’Neil,
Having now had the privilege of having both versions of events, I am now in a position to respond to your complaint.
From the very outset, one thing that you should be mindful of is; our product offerings are very, very carefully selected, so to ensure that we do not appeal to a broad customer base. This is something which is always at the forefront of our minds when undertaking buying duties.
The reason for this is to ensure that we only carry products which appeal to a very fashion forward consumer. This by default means that the customer whom is acclimatised to buying from “clothing for the masses” type retailers, is almost frightened by our range, sometimes we have found that this type of customer, almost finds our dresses funny, and on occasion noted comments such as ‘it looks like a dead flamingo’. When we receive comments like this, we like to give our buyers and ourselves a big pat on the back, because we know we are doing our job right, and modus operandi is being upheld.
Our range is worn by A list celebrities to the likes of Kim Kardashian, Selena Gomez and Katy Perry to name only a few. Now, as one might appreciate, the style counsel for these types of celebrities are not ones to pick “run of the mill” type clothing, and they do so on the basis to ensure that the styles are cutting edge, and only worn by a select few. Similarly, these items are priced such that they remain inaccessible to the undesirable.
Insofar as our employee goes; Similar to our product offerings, our employees are selected with a similar approach. Chris whom served you is a qualified stylist whom has a sixth sense for fashion, and Chris’s only problem is that he is too good at what he does, and as I am sure you are aware, people whom are talented, generally do not tolerate having their time wasted, which is the reason you were provoked to leave the store.
Whilst I concede that you work for chain retailer, unfortunately that does not make us like for like. It is probably fair to assume, a lot of what I have said in this email, either doesn’t make sense to you, or you totally disagree with it all, which is what I would expect (unless of course I have you totally wrong – which I doubt).
Let me guess, you would never, ever hire Chris in the course of your duty, would you? This is the very reason, why your comment “from one retailer to another” is so disproportionate, it’s almost as though we are in a totally different industries. Chris is a retail superstar, who possess unparalleled ability, and I am sorry you feel upset by him, but he knew you were not going to buy anything before you even left your house.
So if you would like to do us any favours, please do not waste our retail staff’s time, because as you have already seen, they will not tolerate it. I am sure there are plenty of shops that appease your taste, so I respectfully ask that you side step our store during future window-shopping expeditions.
Thank you for your enquiry.
(GASP area store manager Matthew Chidgey)
In a follow-up, Chidgey added, “We respect that not all consumers strive for a glamorous appearance; some prefer to simply blend in. […] We respect and welcome all customers whom wish to visit our store, even though the intention to buy may not exist. But we ask that their opinions be expressed through blogs, social media or around a warm latte, but certainly not inside our stores.”
******
So there! That will teach all the “blenders” not to go into high-status shops where they don’t belong. This is a microcosm of the way the Old World Order operates. This is how “status” is used as a weapon. This is the essence of snobbery.
__________
The Spectacular Con:
THE PURPOSE OF THE Spectacular Society is to bring about the condition described by Dr. Carter Godwin Woodson: “When you control a man’s thinking you do not have to worry about his actions. You do not have to tell him not to stand here or go yonder. He will find his ‘proper place’ and will stay in it. You do not need to send him to the back door. He will go without being told. In fact, if there is no back door, he will cut one for his special benefit.”
The spectacle is designed to deceive and dupe. It pacifies and depoliticizes. It makes you more interested in American Idol and X-Factor than in your own life and who’s governing you. It’s a “permanent opium war” intended to stupefy its viewers, to disconnect them from awareness of the forces that control their lives. The spectacle diverts anger away from the criminal elite and toward phantoms, fictions and illusions, invented to “entertain” you. Conspiracy theorists help the elite by constructing ludicrous stories about pan-dimensional Reptilian aliens. The Jews were convinced that David Icke had invented a coded language to talk hostilely about Jews since surely he couldn’t really believe that shape-shifting lizards existed ergo they must be a disguised reference to Jews. Well, why doesn’t Icke talk about Jews? Aren’t they right at the centre of the conspiracy? So fuck the Reptilians and let’s start talking about Zionist control of America: of the banks, corporations, media, foreign policy and military objectives. American Zionism caused 9/11. Osama bin Laden attacked America because of its extreme support of Zionist terrorism in Palestine. Real simple.
The Spectacle leads you away from where the bodies are buried. It conceals the truth. It hides the perpetrators of exploitation and injustice. Like a heroin hit, it manufactures feelings of euphoria, and leaves you always craving more. You get severe withdrawal symptoms if the drug is removed.
The Spectacle brings about catharsis. It temporarily purges you of negativity by showing you a Hollywood movie where everything works out right after a long struggle against the odds. If you watch a film about the heroes winning, you feel that all is well with the world. But life’s nothing like that; the heroes are usually destroyed. The bad guys almost always win in real life. Don’t confuse fictional success with real success.
Left and right wing shows are as bad as each other. They are for entertainment purposes. They give their respective audiences what they want. They deliver chatter, laughter, smiles, jokes – they don’t deliver action and revolution. They don’t propose new political ideas and parties.
They are vacuous. Left and right engage in a tiresome Punch and Judy show. You think there’s some kind of genuine debate going on, but you’re wrong. They’re all looking at the ratings. They’re all in show business, not the business of actually changing anything. And these guys are all rich.
Don’t be fooled. Political satire isn’t politics. Anything on the media is entertainment. It’s spectacle.
Empty gossip, cheap jokes, trivial analysis, grandiose posturing, synthetic anger, celebrity guests – it’s the same formula used by left and right wing “political” shows. Different spin-doctors are used, but they use the same spin cycles, the same tricks of the trade. Truth, ideas, philosophy, science – all of these are ignored. You get a Mythos show, not a Logos presentation of ideas. It’s all about emotions. There’s no analysis, no information, no knowledge. The spectacle and the Logos are never seen together.
The spectacle is all about how you feel, not how you think. Its purpose is to keep you intellectually starved and emotionally addicted – like a baby.
The spectacle wants to turn the whole world into a gigantic advertising billboard, to perpetually fill us with desires for capitalist objects, and to make us associate the purchase of those objects with pleasure, freedom and self-expression. The spectacle would love to take the sky itself and turn it into a global screen. It would like to turn the stars and planets into advertising holograms, beaming out spectacular images of perfection. 24/7, day or night, we would be unable to escape the spectacle.
How do you beat the spectacle when the spectacle has become reality? Hyperreality, as defined by Baudrillard, is the condition where we can no longer distinguish fact from fiction. But, of course, if our reality consists of that inability to separate authenticity from the “authentic fake” then reality isn’t hyperreality at all – it’s our sole reality. That’s exactly where the elite want us – in a fantasy world where we can’t hope to understand the truth of anything because we have no idea what the truth is and no reference points of truth. Religion has never been anything other than a fantasy world where the most incredible garbage is asserted to be true and taken to be true even though it has been scientifically and logically refuted in every imaginable way.
It’s time to smash the mirror into a trillion pieces, to shatter the spectacle, to break the spell it has cast over us.

100% Inheritance Tax:
You never experience this tax because you have to be dead before it applies. Is that not the perfect tax? LIFE IS PAID FOR BY DEATH! WHAT COULD BE SIMPLER? WHAT COULD BE MORE JUST? WHAT COULD BE MORE MERITOCRATIC? THE END OF THE DYNASTIC ELITES, THE MONARCHS, THE NOBLES, THE ARISTOCRACY, THE IN-CROWD, THE OLD WORLD ORDER. ALL THE MONEY IN A NATION IS CONTINUALLY RECYCLED. NO ONE CAN HOARD IT. THE MONEY IS ALWAYS REINVESTED IN THE LIVING, IN ALL FAMILIES, NOT JUST SOME.
__________
Moral Hazard:
You should memorise this concept because it sums up the rule of the privileged elite. Moral hazard occurs when a party insulated from risk behaves differently than it would if it were fully exposed to the risk. When the rich take extraordinary risks in order to gain extraordinary profits for themselves and then expect the State and the taxpayers to pick up the pieces if their gambles go hideously wrong (as they invariably do), that’s moral hazard. When the gambles fail, it should be Wall Street not Main Street that loses everything. The Constitution must be written to ensure that outcome. Speculators should be jailed for the crime of reckless endangerment of the economy.

The Failure of the First Phase of the Movement:
“The Movement” was a rather disastrous enterprise from the outset. It attracted an unhealthy mix of new-agers, conspiracy theorists, hippies, vegans, wacky people looking for anything to stimulate them, fantasists, Mr Angries and lonely introverts.
There was no sign that the Movement wanted to BECOME anything in particular. It was a talking shop when in fact it should have been a hothouse for developing a blueprint for a new society. The Tea Party may be deranged, but at least they know what they stand for and what they’re campaigning to achieve. Could that ever have been said of the Movement?
The Movement never had an identity and it was incapable of creating one. It was highly instructive, but not in a positive sense. The idea of establishing an international activist movement seems to be pure pie in the sky. The Zeitgeist Movement is on a much bigger scale but it too is struggling to amount to anything serious, and serious divisions have arisen between Zeitgeist and Project Venus. So, what’s new?
The Movement should simply dissolve itself or become something much clearer: the MERITOCRACY movement, the sole purpose of which is to establish and promote a Meritocracy Party. Any topics other than meritocracy are banned. The Meritocracy Party is to be a left-wing answer to the Tea Party. The great thing about the Meritocracy Party is that no one can dare to challenge the basic concept. Who in their right mind would denounce merit?
__________
Adam Curtis:
The Illuminati use the work of a particular British documentary maker – Adam Curtis – to give new members a crash course on why the modern world is the way it is. Above all: The Century of the Self, The Power of Nightmares, The Trap and All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace.
Other excellent activist documentaries are:
The Corporation — Jennifer Abbott and Mark Achbar.
Capitalism: A Love Story — Michael Moore.
Inside Job — Charles Ferguson.
Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room — Alex Gibney.
Shock Doctrine — Mat Whitecross.
Starsuckers — Chris Atkins.
The Yes Men Fix the World — Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonanno.

The Secret Army:
World salvation can come from an unexpected quarter – gangs. They can be the irregular army of the Global Freedom Uprising. The gangs of the world hate the establishment, the authorities, the police, law and order. They have been failed by society. Religion has abandoned them. To whom do they turn? They have only themselves, so they become gangs. No one will look out for them other than their fellow gang members.
But they are not criminals: they are doing what they need to in order to survive. The real crime was on the part of society that left them to rot in ghettos where they had no choices in life, no hope of accomplishing anything. What kind of system does that to people?
The gangs can become the liberators. They can become the soldiers of the army of light. They are loyal, brave, energetic, daring, fearless. They see through the bullshit of society. Yet the sad truth is that the system has brilliantly manipulated them. The people most likely to be victims of gangs are members of other gangs. DIVIDE AND RULE – the ancient mantra of the elite. You stick the underclass in ghettos and let them fight each other like rats in a sack.
All the establishment has to do is to get the gangs to squabble with each other, to ferociously defend their “territory”. The rest takes cares of itself. But what if the gangs stopped fighting each other and came together to form a SUPERGANG? That’s what happened during the British riots. Gangs called a truce and came together for a common purpose. The result was devastating. The police were unable to respond and chaos erupted. The police were massively overstretched. This means that if a similar exercise were carried out in the future but on twice the scale, the British police would be unable to stop it.
Imagine a Revolutionary Supergang with an urban general of the calibre of the ancient world’s Hannibal of Carthage. Many experts regard Hannibal’s victory against the Romans at Cannae in Italy as the greatest example of military prowess ever demonstrated.
Cannae was one of the worst defeats ever suffered by Rome. It was the prototype battle of annihilation that every general has dreamt of emulating ever since. The Germans of WWII were experts at using Hannibal’s tactics. At Cannae, Hannibal faced a vastly numerically superior Roman army. Despite that, using the first recorded pincer attack, he was able to outflank the Romans and encircle their army. The much greater numbers of the Romans became irrelevant. Most were trapped in the centre and were unable to wield their swords. Only those on the outside of the trapped mass could fight and they were no match for the superior Carthaginian soldiers who relentlessly slaughtered them. The Romans at the middle of the crush could do nothing other than wait to be massacred.
In the modern day, in an urban environment, a gang simply needs to confront the police in a particular location. The police will respond and, if they have the manpower, seek to outflank the gang and trap them. However, if the gang has a strategic reserve to commit, or allied gangs that it can summon, it can in turn encircle the police. Streets can be blocked off and the police trapped.
One day, perhaps soon, an urban Hannibal will emerge who will unite all of the warring gangs, study the tactics of the great generals and deploy them in city environments. Thanks to social networking, he can gain an immense amount of information about the disposition of the enemy, summon reinforcements, and direct them to exactly where they are needed. The British riots showed that the police can’t think on their feet and can’t call on reserves quickly enough. They are sitting ducks.

The Nightmare:
All systems of thought other than mathematical materialism and mathematical idealism are garbage and nonsense. They contain zero truth content. Abrahamism never once made a true statement. Only irrational people follow Moses, Christ or Mohammed. But this world of ours has never been anything other than superlative at generating endless legions of the mad.
Why do so many people hold so many deranged beliefs? Is that not the surest proof that the world wasn’t created by a sane Creator and indeed not by any Creator at all? The prevalence of insanity is only comprehensible in an evolving universe which does not know what sanity is and is slowly struggling towards it.
What would be the sanest world? – one in which everyone acts rationally. Reason and logic are the anchors of sanity, yet reason and logic were the last human qualities to appear. They are still barely present in most people. They are like fragile babies that could easily be killed off by the predators of faith and unreason.
Enlightenment is the agenda of reason and logic. What was the Enlightenment saving us from? – from faith, superstition and irrationality. How can anyone who claims to be on the side of the Enlightenment possibly be a Christian? It’s a category error. Christianity represents toxic hatred of reason, logic and knowledge. Jesus Christ never once mentioned reason, logic or knowledge. He never once referred to science, philosophy or mathematics. How can any intelligent person be a Christian?
Is Jesus Christ the God of retards? He must be – why else did he never once say anything clever even though he is supposed to be the Creator of the Universe? How could anyone read the sayings of Jesus Christ and even for one microsecond succeed in deluding themselves that these are utterances of GOD? You would have to have an exceptionally low opinion of God to think that Jesus Christ had any connection with him at all. Read the banalities and platitudes of Jesus Christ alongside the dazzling works of Plato, Leibniz, Hegel and Nietzsche. Surely, it would make more sense to worship any of these men rather than that dumbass Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is God for Dummies. It’s impossible for any intelligent person to believe in Christianity. Christianity is an all out assault on reason. Christianity, like Islam and Judaism, flies the flag of NO QUARTER in its dealings with rationality. Rationality should hoist the red Jolly Roger and do likewise to Abrahamism.
The religion of Abraham must be removed 100% from the human race. There ought not to be one trace of it left behind. Every Torah, Bible and Koran should be burned to ashes. Every Synagogue, Church and Mosque should be demolished and levelled. In 100 years’ time, Abrahamism ought to be no more than an echo of a mad idea that once flickered perversely across human consciousness: a flash of nightmare that lit up a torture chamber for one horrific instant.

THE WORD ANOMIE comes from the ancient Greek a “without”, and nomos “law”. It defines anyone who exists against or outside the law, or refers to a condition where the current laws fail, resulting in a state of lawlessness. It’s not the same as anarchy (“without a ruler”), although if a ruler has been violently deposed and lawlessness has descended, the two states clearly converge.
The recent riots in Britain were a perfect example of anomie. The rioters and looters were people who did not conform with the rest of society and did not acknowledge society’s rules and morality. When they acted en masse, local law and order fell apart.
The British riots were a stunning moment in the history of the world because they proved that anomie now exists to a staggering degree even in the richest countries in the world. This is a critical indicator that capitalism is about to collapse. The Revolution is now incredibly close.
The underclass has become so large that it can no longer be controlled and, if they act in concert, they can easily overwhelm the police. The police were able to restore order in London only by calling in reserves from the rest of the country. An army of 16,000 police had to be deployed to re-establish control.
In the parts of the country from which police were taken to reinforce London, new riots broke out. It’s quite clear that a concerted effort by all groups opposed to the government would exceed the British police’s ability to respond. The British army would then have to be deployed and British citizens would be shot down in the street, precipitating a Revolution. This is not some fantasy. This is what almost happened in Britain in August 2011 after a set of spontaneous events. Had an intelligence been at work behind the scenes, a full-scale uprising might have been provoked. Social networking allows a spark to be ignited almost instantly. “Other-directedness” (peer group pressure) allied with FOMO (“fear of missing out”), group think, hysterical contagion and the compulsion to be in attendance at any Event, Happening or Spectacle, all kick in to fan the flames into a blaze that can engulf a nation. This incendiary mixture will soon enough light up the world. The clock is ticking. The final curtain is descending.
Anomie is associated with alienation, purposelessness and lack of engagement with mainstream society. Social theorists say it is particularly pronounced in times of significant changes in economic fortunes and when there are gulfs between the values and goals proclaimed by society and what many people find actually achievable in everyday life. The British looters live in an ultra-materialistic society where the acquisition of goods is trumpeted as the highest good, yet the ability of these members of the underclass to get these glittering prizes is negligible. Therefore, when an alternative opportunity presented itself, they seized it with open arms. No rational person could have expected anything else. We live in the age of anomie. Anomic individuals are everywhere. The system is collapsing.
“Strain Theory” concerns the discrepancy between an individual’s awareness of society’s accepted goals and his equal awareness that he is deficient in respect of the legitimate means to attain those goals – the resultant strain may pressure the individual into using illegitimate means to get what he wants i.e. he may resort to criminality. When people are subjected to severe strain, something has to give. A person suffering from anomie and alienated from the mainstream is unable to secure the goals society endorses because of the structural limitations to which he is subjected e.g. lack of job, hence lack of money, lack of education and qualifications, lack of any occupational training. If he wants the things others have, he has no option but to use deviant means. This is INEVITABLE. The British riots were therefore inevitable.
A materialistic society that constantly promotes the acquisition of commodities as the sign of success and status and simultaneously denies enormous numbers from having any realistic chance of acquiring the desired goods, creates a social structure which drives some people towards crime as the only means by which they can achieve the status society trumpets as the greatest good. According to sociologist Robert Agnew, strain emerges from negative relationships with others. Plainly, the underclass are not treated by mainstream society in the way they would wish or expect to be, so they lose confidence that mainstream society is on their side and that it wishes to help them. Their alienation leads to resentment, anger and frustration, which will in turn confirm negative relationships. The alienated individual, not wishing to be continually rejected by the mainstream, withdraws from contact with the mainstream and enters an aggressive, sullen, criminal sub-world (as in Gang Land – the domain of street gangs).
Rapidly, some individuals lose all connection with mainstream expectations and codes of behaviour and when they get the chance to strike back at the establishment, they seize it and feel not one particle of remorse. They will consider that the mainstream “deserved it”.
The British riots were a classic demonstration of anomie, strain theory, alienation, the underclass and gang culture. Any government response should be to heal the disastrous breakdown between the underclass and the mainstream. Instead, right wing governments respond with draconian policing and long jail sentences. These, of course, are counterproductive since they magnify the original problem and make an even more serious outbreak of trouble at a later date inevitable. The British government’s response to the riots has been predictably idiotic and will cause worse problems down the track.
In times of Revolution, reactionary governments always make Revolution even more likely by their brutal responses that simply amplify all of the grievances of the Revolutionaries.

The Shape of the Coming Revolution:
ANOMIE WILL DRIVE THE FORTHCOMING REVOLUTION. It has slipped under the radar of the Elite, and they have no idea of just how serious the problem is. David Cameron, the idiot Prime Minister of the UK, has shown himself clueless. Being an extremely rich and privileged toff, he has no idea how the underclass live and what they think. He has never met any of them. He is surrounded by other posh and privileged people who equally know nothing of the underclass. They are as ignorant of the trouble heading their way as the French aristocrats of 1789.
Sociologist David Riesman divided people into three types: adjusted, anomic (maladjusted) and autonomous. The adjusted are the typical representatives of the tradition-, inner- and other- directed social types. The anomic are those who have never managed to fit in with these social types in the normal way. Instead, they are deviant representatives of these types. A gang, for example, is a deviant other-directed group where peer group pressure is all consuming. They also create a “tradition” – a code of conduct that is transmitted to all members and carried on from generation to generation. They also usually have a strict hierarchy with the dominant alpha male at the summit. In other words, they reflect many of the aspects of mainstream society but in a deviant way that is at violent odds with the mainstream. The Mafia are an archetypally anomic group. They conduct themselves rather like a ruthless mainstream corporation, except the “commodity” they specialise in is criminality, particularly drugs, prostitution, gambling, extortion and protection rackets. Any senior member of the Mafia would unquestionably feel right at home in the boardroom of a mainstream corporation. The Mafia is simply a criminal version of a corporation (and many would argue that the vast majority of corporations are simply legalised criminal enterprises).
“Anomic”, as used by Riesman, means ruleless, ungoverned and outside social norms. However, it’s more useful to expand the definition of anomie to include the situation that applies to gangs and the Mafia where rules and governance are in place, but are outside and in conflict with the mainstream system.
Riesman says of the adjective anomic: “It is virtually synonymous with maladjusted, a term I refrain from using because of its negative connotations; for there are some cultures where I would place a higher value on the maladjusted or anomic than on the adjusted.” He doesn’t give any examples of what he means here but clearly all anomic Muslims or Orthodox Jews (those who openly challenge and defy their religious traditions) are of much higher worth than adjusted Muslims or Orthodox Jews.
Riesman valued above all the “autonomous” type, and we absolutely agree with him. Riesman wrote: “The ‘autonomous’ are those who on the whole are capable of conforming to the behavioural norms of their society – a capacity the anomics usually lack – but are free to choose whether to conform or not.”
The Illuminati are all autonomous. Members can conform with the norms of society if and when necessary, but equally are not defined by the mainstream norms and can step outside them, without entering the frequently desperate world of the anomic. The choices of the anomic are highly restricted whereas the autonomous have an excess of choices. The New World Order will be where everyone is autonomous.
Riesman observed that many anomic individuals were apathetic, with a visible lack of emotion and drive. They were prone to depression, slow in their mental and physical responses, subdued and often exhibiting an empty expression. Riesman wrote, “Taken all together, the anomics – ranging from overt outlaws to ‘catatonic’ types who lack even the spark for living, let alone for rebellion – constitute a sizable number in America.”
In fact, it’s possible to conclude that most people are on a spectrum of anomie and most “normal” people are actually anomics who are nevertheless skilled at playing the game of “fitting in”. They are playing the part of being normal but do not inwardly feel normal at all. How many people in the UK were watching the riots and sympathising to a considerable extent? Probably half the country could understand the frustration and anger of the underclass. It’s the sheer scale of explicit or implicit anomie that spells doom for the ruling class. They have alienated far too many people and now they have insufficient numbers to prop them up against the tide of discontent. Their disastrous mismanagement of the economy and their ongoing greed have destroyed the illusion that they are fit people to be in charge. Practically everyone now hates the ruling elite and all that’s lacking for them to be overthrown is a sensible, rational alternative. That’s what the Meritocracy Movement is all about – to provide the superior alternative to democracy (which, at root, is nothing but rule by a plutocratic elite) that the people are craving.
Riesman wrote, “Modern industrial society has driven great numbers of people into anomie, and produced a wan conformity in others, but the very developments which have done this have also opened up hitherto undreamed of possibilities for autonomy. As we come to understand our society better, and the alternatives it holds available to us, I think we shall be able to create many more alternatives, hence still more room for autonomy.”
Riesman wrote this over sixty years ago. In that time, enormous amounts have been learned, yet one thing has held back progress – the ruling elite.
In the UK, many leading politicians, including the Prime Minister, have a degree called “PPE” from Oxford University, one of the great bastions of the ruling elite. PPE is “Politics, Philosophy and Economics” and is arguably the most sinister degree in the world. It is essentially the ideology of the Power Elite turned into an academic qualification. PPE is all about the philosophy of the elite, the politics of the elite and the economic systems most favourable to the elite. It is their blueprint for running the world. Enormous numbers of politicians and civil servants have this insidious degree.
Our world should in fact be run according to PSS – “Psychology, Sociology and Science”. Philosophy is essential to establishing the constitution and defining the goals of society. However, once that is done, it is psychology, sociology and science that will deliver the practical management of society to achieve those aims. Politics will be rendered obsolete. Psychologists, sociologists and scientists will replace politicians. The scientific method will replace political posturing and moralising. We will live in an evidence-based society where policies that lead to good outcomes will be preserved and those that lead to bad outcomes will be abandoned. Drugs, for example, will be legalised and then the evidence will be collected over a number of years to see if the world is better or worse as a result. The opinions and morals of those opposed to drugs will be neither here nor there. All that matters are facts and evidence. Everything else is hot air and bullshit. As for economics, it will be completely subordinated to the meritocratic constitution. Only economic systems compatible with the aims of society will be tolerated. So, if society is striving to maximise merit, any economic system (such as contemporary capitalism) that promotes privilege will become illegal. The world will be run on an entirely rational and transparent basis. No one will be in any doubt about the goals and direction of society.
At the moment, there is no government or nation on earth that has defined what its purpose is and what the purpose of society is. The reason for that is simple. Religion is allowed to define the purpose and goals of the individual. This is unacceptable. The State must provide a universal definition to which every member of the State must sign up, or leave the State.
The appropriate definition couldn’t be easier to formulate: the purpose of the State is to produce perfect people: free, independent, autonomous, self-creating, meritorious, those whose abilities have been maximised, those who freely construct their own identity based on their own nature, character and personality.
Plainly, religion contradicts all of these elements. Abrahamism says that the purpose of everyone is to obey God or burn forever in the fires of hell. Karmic religions say that if your life is shit then it’s because you were wicked in a previous life, so shut up and get on with it. Religion creates pathetic, submissive, servile, passive, terrified people, who are easy for the ruling elite to control.
There is only one acceptable religion – ILLUMINATION – the religion of dialectical evolution, of striving for perfection, of BECOMING GOD.

The Kleptocracy:
Kleptocracy is rule by thieves. Is that not the world we live in? The world is run by the rich for the rich. They steal from us all the time – and we let them. Isn’t it time the thieves were punished? And isn’t it time we took back what they stole from us – our money, our dignity, our lives?
******
Commissions of Enquiry.
The British Government has appointed a commission to enquire into the causes of the riots of August 20112 and to determine any lessons to be learned. Of course, the commission comprises individuals selected from the “great and the good”, from the privileged elite, from the British establishment.
We could write their conclusions right now. We know that they are not going to call for the abolition of the establishment, for the redistribution of wealth, for the policing of the underclass to be made much less provocative and aggressive, or for vast resources to be pumped into ghettos.
One-parent families will be blamed, and poor educational attainment, and lack of discipline at schools and a “get rich quick” culture and so on. Absolutely nothing will change. Within five years, we will experience a second wave of riots much bigger than the first.
What’s the point of commissions when their answers are already pre-scripted? The establishment will never reach any conclusion other than that they are right and the underclass is wrong. These exercises are futile and an insult to the intelligence of the people. The truth is the last thing that any of the commissioners is interested in, or indeed capable of recognising. The bottom line is this. If you treat people like scum, they became scum. It’s your fault, not theirs. The British riots were caused by David Cameron and his super-rich chums – and they are the ones who should be going to jail for very lengthy sentences.

The British Riots:
In the spring of 2011, fake Britain was shown to the world in all of its fraudulent splendour. The “Royal Wedding” was a global event. Billions watched, enraptured, a fairytale wedding of a beautiful princess. Women couldn’t stop talking about the wedding dress. Everyone was in awe of the pomp and circumstance. Britain seemed, for a moment, to be once again the greatest power on earth, as it was in the days of the British Empire upon which it was said that the sun never set.
Move the clock forward a few months to August and the world was treated to the reality of modern Britain – the major cities on fire, feral gangs running wild, looting at will.
Britain has all of a sudden become an interesting country. In fact, it has now attracted the attention of the leadership of the Illuminati. Communism died the moment the Berlin Wall came down in 1989. Although it staggered on as a zombie for another year or two, a fatal blow had been delivered. The symbolism was total and terminal. Communism itself was that Wall. When the Wall no longer existed, neither did Communism. Now the extraordinary possibility has arisen that capitalism might meet its death in the original capitalist country – Imperial Britain, home of the Industrial Revolution, home of the “Dark Satanic mills”.
Britain is ruled by a hereditary monarch, completely unaccountable to the people despite being the head of State. No one is allowed to ask her any questions or demand that she justify her position. The current British government is one of the most privileged in the history of the country. Ultra-rich toffs from the most privileged backgrounds, educated at the finest private schools and at Oxbridge (Oxford and Cambridge) say, with straight faces, “We’re all in it together”, as they slash public spending and throw hundreds of thousands onto the dole queues. How can a millionaire and someone struggling to feed themselves be in it “together”? What kind of warped person attempts to claim they are? What degree of perversion of logic and language must exist for a millionaire to make such a statement? Why does anyone listen to such arrant nonsense? What’s the latest idea for stimulating growth in the UK? – tax cuts for the rich! What a surprise. As if we didn’t see that coming.
Massive cuts are even being applied to the army and police: the military and paramilitary wings, respectively, of the British establishment. How dumb can the “Elite” be to weaken their bullyboy forces at the very moment that the anti-establishment forces are gaining traction at long last?
Last year, thousands of British students rioted in response to savage education cuts and massive increases in student tuition fees. Now the underclass has seized its moment to attack the ruling regime, and has struck with devastating effectiveness, choosing the perfect moment to do maximum damage.
Consider the seismic events that have happened in Britain in recent times. For endless years, British people were told that their politicians were the finest in the world. Then the “expenses” scandal erupted. Politicians were proved to have been fiddling their expenses on a monumental scale. Some chosen scapegoats even went to jail although, in truth, all of them deserved to be put behind bars. There was also a “cash for honours” scandal whereby rich donors to political parties were given knighthoods and called “Lord” in exchange for their cash. Then came the “hacking” scandal. It was revealed that newspapers had, for decades, been routinely committing criminal offences – hacking into the phones of any newsworthy individuals to listen to their messages, hacking into their computers to read their emails, using private detectives to go through people’s rubbish to find anything of “sleaze value”. This huge database of sensitive information was used as a tool of blackmail. Members of Parliament admitted that they were too scared to criticise the media for fear that they would then become targets of the media sleaze machine that would reveal damaging private information about them. Journalists openly threatened politicians and anyone who crossed them. It was understood that the media could destroy anyone they wished at any time since they knew everyone’s secrets.
Several years ago, Rebekah Brooks, a senior executive of Rupert Murdoch’s sleaze empire, openly admitted in front of a televised Parliamentary committee that her organisation had paid police officers for information – a criminal offence. The whole establishment of the country simply pretended not to hear since no one wanted to stand up to Rupert Murdoch. He was deemed so powerful that he was perceived as being able to make or break governments, hence no one dared challenge his evil empire. The country, the politicians, the police and the law literally turned a deaf ear.
But the revelations kept flowing thanks to a few heroic individuals (one journalist and two politicians in particular). Police initially claimed that the hacking scandal was restricted to one journalist covering royal affairs who had used one private detective to hack the phones of members of the Royal Family. These two were duly sent to jail, and that, it seemed, would be that. Their imprisonment was supposed to represent the symbolic end of the matter and draw a line under the whole thing.
New revelations were given a cursory glance by a senior policeman who refused to re-open the investigations, asserting that there was in fact “no new information”. It later turned out that there were many box loads of dynamite revelations that he didn’t even look at. Well, that’s the British police for you.
When it was discovered that several years ago the mobile phone of a missing schoolgirl (whose dead body was discovered six months after her disappearance) was hacked by a newspaper, public revulsion was so extreme that the whole house of cards suddenly collapsed. The missing schoolgirl’s message box was full with anxious messages from friends and family, so the hacker deleted some messages to create new space for messages. This, naturally, led the police to suspect that she might be alive and had run away from home. (In fact, she had been brutally murdered within minutes of being abducted in broad daylight by a serial killer.) In other words, the illegal hacking had completely altered the nature of the police investigation and given false hope to the girl’s family. The whole of Britain was sickened and outraged. The tipping point had been reached. Such was the hatred towards Rupert Murdoch’s newspaper The News of the World that was responsible for the hacking of the schoolgirl’s phone that Murdoch actually had to close it down even though it was one of the most successful newspapers in the world (serving up endless sleaze and celebrity tittle-tattle).
So, Great Britain is led by an unelected monarch, ruled by a privileged elite, and has a political class mired in corruption, in cahoots with a sleazebag, criminal media and an incompetent, corrupt police force. Meanwhile, the top bankers and stock market traders have their snouts permanently in the money trough.
If these are the scum setting the moral tone of the UK, who could possibly condemn the rioters and looters? They had learned well the moral lessons set down by the elite – grab everything you can and fuck everyone else.

The Fatal Error:
It’s a disaster to over promise and under deliver. That’s the sin capitalism has committed. It has beguiled the people with the perfect images of the Spectacular Society, but it has been unable to deliver the reality to match. People’s standards of living are in sharp decline; social mobility is in reverse. Obama, the great hope of democracy to save the “brand”, has been no better than the white clowns who came before him. People have stopped believing. They’re starting to see that the capitalist edifice is rotten through and through. The Old World Order’s collapse has become inevitable.
__________
The Anatomy of Power:
IN MAY 2010, a coalition Government came to power in the UK, formed by the right wing Conservative Party and the centrist Liberal Democrat Party. The newly appointed Cabinet (consisting of 29 Ministers) – the core of the UK Government – was said to have a net worth of £60 million. All of them belonged to the financial elite. Politics in the UK was once the preserve of the wealthy (you could literally buy a political constituency) and it’s becoming so again. 23 of the 29 members of the Cabinet have assets and investments estimated at more than £1million. In other words, a clique of millionaires now run the UK. Below we have listed the backgrounds of these individuals, and what schools and universities they went to and what degrees they took.
Extraordinary patterns are evident. Virtually all of these people were privately educated and came from extremely rich and privileged backgrounds (none more so than Prime Minister David Cameron). Many of them had fathers who had been active in politics. None of them has a degree in mathematics, any science subject, any engineering subject, any technological subject or any psychological or sociological subject. An incredible number have a particular degree from Oxford University – “PPE” – Politics, Philosophy and Economics, the degree specially designed for the British political establishment.
The UK’s Chancellor of the Exchequer – responsible for British economic policy – has a history degree. Extremely well qualified for his job, obviously.
No matter what country you come from, you ought to study this list carefully. There will be a list in your country of an identical nature. You will immediately realise something profound: you’re definitely never going to be on the list.
If, by the time you have reached the end of this list, you’re not demanding a Revolution, you deserve a shit life. Only fools and cowards support a system of government entirely hostile to their interests. If you’re not part of the “in crowd”, you must get rid of them or forever be part of the “out crowd” – a failure, a loser, a nobody.
These people have complete contempt for you. They operate within a tiny, narrow clique from which everyone from a regular background is excluded.
Here is the List of Shame – theirs for engineering it, and ours for putting up with it:

David Cameron and Nick Clegg.
Is it not an extraordinary thing that Britain’s Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister both have such similar backgrounds? Both come from millionaire backgrounds and are themselves millionaires. Both went to elite private schools where fees are £30,000 per year, considerably more than the average British annual salary. Eton College for boys, where Cameron went to school, is the most privileged school in the world. Virtually every “Old Etonian” (as they call themselves) rises to a senior position in the Old World Order or the organisations that service it. Westminster School, where Clegg went, is not far behind.
Nineteen Prime Ministers in British History have come from Eton, eight from Harrow “public” school (ironically, the bastions of extreme privilege refer to themselves as “public” rather than as ultra-private) and two from Westminster. The vast majority of British schools have, of course, no political connections at all.
David Cameron became leader of the Conservative Party only four years after entering Parliament. It was even quicker for Nick Clegg to become leader of his Party – just two years. Time doesn’t crawl for such people. They’re fast tracked to the top. All doors are opened for them. They never see a red light. When he was starting out on his political career, David Cameron was endorsed by a phone call from Buckingham Palace! Cameron’s posh wife Samantha is the daughter of a baronet and descended from Charles II.
That’s the UK in the 21st century – infested by toffs, royals and the super rich. Our day will come when we will replace these people. Never again will anyone who opted out of the State education sector be allowed any job in the public sector. They turned their backs on the people when they refused to be educated alongside them, so the people will henceforth turn their backs on them. Isn’t that justice? Why should those who refused to interact with the people at school be allowed to rule them? Is that not insane? If the State education system isn’t good enough for them, why should they alone be allowed to escape and get the finest education money can buy? Who the fuck do these people think they are? One thing’s for sure – once a meritocratic government is in place, such people will never be heard from again. The people will be permanently protected from the likes of Cameron and Clegg.
Cameron is an especially evil man. He is the latest in a long line of Tory MPs produced by his family: i.e. his is an archetypal “dynastic” family of privilege. It was certain that one of them would one day become Prime Minister. That is the entire point of these families. From his earliest moments, everyone told him that he was “destined for great things”. Well, why wouldn’t he be? The red carpet was rolled out for him and indeed for all others who are born into exceptional privilege. He enjoys every advantage that is explicitly denied to everyone else.
These people are always astonishingly self-confident: who wouldn’t be if they were backed up by centuries of wealth and power? Even as a teenager, Cameron was accustomed to being told he had the makings of a future prime minister. While most people are worrying about their education and getting any sort of job just to get on the employment ladder, children of privilege are already having all doors opened for them to allow them to fast track to the top. These people never worry about money or jobs. They can focus right from the start on the highest and most powerful jobs in the world. They are never beset by the doubts that afflict anyone who sees a staggeringly difficult road ahead, with every door firmly closed in their face.
If, like the authors of our website, you have had to crawl out of the gutter and use a preternatural effort of will to drag yourself to a position where you could pull back the curtain and see the feeble ranks of the privileged – enervated, corrupt and talentless despite all the benefits showered on them – you will be able to smell how close the end is for these poltroons and criminals. Illusion alone sustains them. Only the voice of the young lad shouting out, “The Emperor is stark naked!” remains to be heard. ONE SPARK – that’s all that’s needed. One spark of truth!
******
You have been relentlessly lied to that you have any chance in life. You don’t have a prayer of succeeding. You never did. The system of privilege is there to ensure that the privileged succeed and you fail. There are only a few good jobs to go around. Those are all reserved for the elite. If you weren’t born into the elite, you will never be joining it. The high life is not for you. You were DESIGNED by the system to be mediocre and get nowhere. You can blabber on about love all you like, spout mystical hogwash, delude yourself that there is such a thing as “karma”, read New Age books and engage in all the other displacement activities that allow you to avoid confronting the central fact of life: Power. You don’t have any and those that do wish that to remain the case so that they can go on allocating the finest things in life to the members of their caste. Revolution alone can change your life. The system that has oppressed you must be destroyed for you to be free. The privileged elite must be swept aside if any of the great jobs are ever to come your way.
In the UK, only 7% of the population go to private schools, but 59% of Conservative MPs, the traditional party of government, received a private education. Gideon Osborne, the extremely wealthy Chancellor of the Exchequer, was looked down on in the Bullingdon Club because he hadn’t gone to Eton and his background wasn’t quite as glittering and blue-blooded as the rest, so he was known as “Oik”, meaning lowborn, working class and yobbish.
70% of high court judges are privately educated. You certainly won’t catch them doing anything other than upholding the law of the elite. The vast majority of top newspaper editors, columnists and news presenters are privately educated i.e. they completely control the media and pump out their propaganda on behalf of the elite around the clock.
Social mobility has gone into reverse in the last twenty years and is declining at a phenomenal rate. Ever since Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan pushed through unrestrained free market economics and enormous tax cuts for the rich, the rich have become infinitely richer.
Until Thatcher and Reagan, the elite felt themselves under threat from left-leaning governments that were willing to impose high taxes on them. Since Thatcher and Reagan, the West has become right wing and the elite have never had it so good. This, of course will be their downfall. Nemesis always follows hubris. They have become supremely arrogant and imagine they can get away with anything. Just as their ludicrous economic model was based on the principle that house prices could never fall, so their political model is based on the fallacy that the people will never revolt.
Stop kidding yourselves. Stop feeding the machine that crushes you. Oppose it in every way you can. If you don’t then choose whatever words you like to describe yourself: loser, weakling, coward, slave, failure, puppet, patsy, stooge. You think there’s a conspiracy going on? Of course there is – it’s by the people at the top of society against you and everyone like you. And what are you doing about it? FUCK ALL. What battlefield have you chosen to express your enmity of the elite? – 9/11. Deep down, even you know that Muslim maniacs who despised America were responsible for 9/11. Why don’t you choose the RIGHT battlefield on which to engage the elite – MONEY! Why don’t you demand that the money that gives them all of their power be taken from them? Because you worship money as much as they do. You think that the dollar is sacrosanct. You think the State – the Commonwealth – has no right to take it from anyone. You think that way because the elite have brainwashed it into you. It’s essential for you to believe that in order for you to pose no threat to them. As soon as you realise that you are entitled to their money because they have stolen it from you and your ancestors – just as the African Americans of today are owed endless trillions for the slavery that was inflicted on them by the elite – then you will have no compunction about removing the assets of the criminals who run our world. Forget 9/11. Just concentrate on the removal of the elite’s wealth. Once that is achieved, everything else in our world will become better.

Kabbalah in a Nutshell:
JEHOVAH, the supreme narcissist, wishes to see himself in all his glory. But how is the Infinite to be captured – how can Infinity gaze upon Infinity, how can Infinity be captured in a mirror. Wouldn’t the mirror itself need to be Infinite? It can’t be done. The closest God can get to seeing himself is to create a finite world that will act as a finite mirror in which he will see a finite version of himself.
So God as Logos, the principle of Cosmic Reason, emanates or creates an idea of himself – Adam Kadmon, the Heavenly Man, made in the image of the Logos. But this is an Idea, not a physical actualisation, not a truly independent mirror. Therefore, Adam – Earthly Man, humanity – is formed from matter (the “stuff” of the finite domain) – in the image of Adam Kadmon.
When Earthly Adam perfects himself in the finite domain and becomes Heavenly Adam (in as near an approximation as physical reality permits), then God gets as close as possible to the idea of his own perfection, albeit at the level of the finite rather than infinite.
Heavenly Adam (Adam Kadmon) has all the qualities required to complete the task of Divine reflection. In the final analysis, he is both mirror and viewer, object and reflection.
God gazes at the image of God and the image of God gazes at God, and in that union of gazes, that synergy of the finite and the infinite, the apex of existence is achieved. For Earthly Adam – now Adam Kadmon himself, God’s perfect image – the deal is the sweetest of all. He, the perfection of the finite, is allowed to gaze upon and contemplate infinity (the unlimited, the much greater than the finite self), while the infinite, of necessity, must gaze at something lesser than itself, but at least with crystal clear detail and definition.

The Ten Spheres of Kabbalah:
KABBALISTS Talk of the Ein Sof: the infinite, endless, boundless, limitless. They say that God is never revealed directly to humanity, but only through his “virtues and deeds”. If Ein Sof is unfathomable, Ein is even more so. Ein is the hidden, transcendent God that can never be apprehended by humanity at all, resembling, to all intents and purposes, nothing at all.
At the end of their journey of enlightenment, Kabbalists do not expect to “know” God but, rather, to encounter his divine spirit in some mystical way and be possessed by him (as Christian Pentecostalists seek to be overwhelmed by the Holy Spirit). Their path consists of mastering ten sephirot (“spheres” or “enumerations”) that emanate from the Ein Sof. The upper sphere, closest to the Ein Sof, is called the “crown”. The ten sephirot are:
1 Keter “Crown”
2 Chokhmah “Wisdom”
3 Binah “Understanding”
4 Chesed “Kindness”
5 Gevurah “Severity”
6 Tiferet “Beauty”
7 Netzach “Eternity”
8 Hod “Splendour”
9 Yesod “Foundation”
10 Malkuth “Kingship”
Sometimes “Keter” is replaced by “Daat” (“Knowledge”), which is the conscious manifestation of the unconscious (or “above consciousness”) Keter. Some people consider Keter too lofty to include in the sephirot since it’s too close to the Ein Sof.
Wikipedia describes the Sephirot in the flowing terms:
Keter (“Crown”): Divine Will to create/Infinite Light of the Creator/ the Hebrew name of God “Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh-I am That I am”.
Chokhmah (“Wisdom”): First unbounded flash of an idea before it takes on limitations/ male light/ Divine Reality/ first revelation/ creation from nothingness.
Binah (“Understanding”): the infinite flash of Chokhmah brought into the vessel of understanding to give it grasp of breadth and depth/ feminine vessel that gives birth to the emotions/ reason/ understanding brings teshuva: return to God.
Daat (“Knowledge”): Central state of unity of the 10 Sephirot, also called the Tree of Life.
Chesed (“Kindness”): Loving grace of free giving/ love of God/ inspiring vision.
Gevurah (“Severity”): Strength/ judgment/ intention/ withholding/ awe of God.
Tiferet (“Beauty”): Symmetry/ balance between Chesed and Gevurah in compassion.
Netzach (“Eternity”).
Hod (“Splendour”): Withdrawal/ Surrender/ Sincerity.
Yesod (“Foundation”): Connecting to the task to accomplish/ wholly remembering/ coherent knowledge.
Malkuth (“Kingship”): Female vessel for the pregnant nurturing of the male lights of the emotional sephirot into action/ becomes the Keter Will source for any subsequent lower level in Creation/ accomplishment/ realization of the Divine Plan.
The Sephirot are said to reflect the physical organs of a human being according to the following scheme:
Keter (Crown) = Skull
Chokhmah (Wisdom) = Right brain
Binah (Understanding) = Left brain (or Heart)
Daat (Knowledge) = Central brain
Chesed (Kindness) = Right arm
Gevurah (Severity) = Left arm
Tiferet (Beauty) = Torso
Netzach (Victory) = Right leg
Hod (Glory) = Left leg
Yesod (Foundation) = Sexual organ
Malkuth (Kingship) = Mouth
Just as Christian souls had to ascend through spheres to get to the Empyrean, Kabbalist souls had to “ascend” through the ten spiritual spheres (sephirot) to reach the Ein Sof (as Spirit, not as God as he is in himself, which is said to be unknowable in the manner of the supreme Kantian noumenon).
This has been compared with the mathematical idea of the limit of an infinite series whose sum can be approached more and more closely as we add more and more terms, but never actually reached since that would require infinite terms. God similarly evades us, say the Kabbalists. We can get nearer and nearer, we but we never reach the final destination.
The Kabbalist movement came to prominence in central Europe in the 12th century. It reached its zenith in Spain in the 15th century, but then, in 1492, Torquemada engineered the expulsion of the Jews from Spain, with the unintended consequence that Kabbalah spread all over Europe. Poland and Russia provided relatively safe homes for Kabbalists. Another destination was Jerusalem in Palestine.
The modern Hasidic movement – those incredibly weird-looking people with an assortment of fashion-victim hats – are Kabbalists. As is Madonna, of course. If only she were more intelligent, she would realise she’d been a sold a pup. But, hey, being a celebrity don’t make you smart, as they say.
It’s baffling that anyone would want to be a Jew and worship the Torture God, Jehovah, when they could opt instead for Gnosticism, Neoplatonism or Hermeticism. At times, Kabbalah seems like gibberish, reflecting the Jewish propensity for autism and obsessive compulsive disorder. It’s hard to imagine that any non-Jews (apart from celebrities with Jewish friends, agents and managers) could take it seriously.
__________
Sephirot:
The highest level of Sephirot (Keter = Crown) is equated with Yahweh. The lowest level (Malkuth = Kingdom) is Shekinah, the presence of God in the material world.
Keter.
The first of the Sephirot exists at the edge of the Void. It is said to contain all that was, is and will be, the place of first emanation and final return. It is I AM THAT I AM – Yahweh, the first discernible manifestation of God. Note that Yahweh is an expression of two higher realities: Ein Sof and, highest of all, Ein.
Daat.
The most mysterious of the Sephirot is called Daat, and is often omitted from the list of Sephirot. Through this gateway, God may enter at will to directly intervene in existence. In the human sphere, Daat is knowledge that comes directly from God and seems to appear out of nowhere like the most powerful intuition (similar to gnosis). Daat is the Tree of Life, and we might also call it the Tree of Knowledge i.e. it could be regarded as the combination of the two sacred trees of the Garden of Eden.
__________
The Divine Beam:
Kabbalah talks of the void being surrounded by a glowing sphere of Endless Light. The act of Divine Creation described in the Book of Genesis consisted of a single beam of light emanating from the enveloping light sphere and penetrating the void all the way to its centre.
This was the holy beam of the Divine Will, and it brought with it the Sephirot, the ten sacred stages of emanation. These were sometimes called utterances and it was said that the world was summoned into existence with these ten divine vocal commands.
___________
The Biblical Mystery:
Was humanity created twice? Was the original human a hermaphrodite? Many commentators have pointed out that Genesis 1 in the Bible describes the creation of the world, and Genesis 2 does exactly the same with subtly different details. It has been suggested that God in fact made the world several times and did a botched time each time. Even his final attempt was a screw up with Adam and Eve disobeying him within six to twelve hours of their appearance in Eden. Then, when Jehovah later exterminated humanity apart from Noah and his family, the new Earth populated by his hand-picked people was soon even worse than the old Earth. Has God ever managed to do anything right?
So, why does Genesis 2 repeat Genesis 1 unless to hint that there was at least a secondary creation, and perhaps other hidden Creation attempts? Imagine a novel where chapter 2 repeated chapter 1 with slightly different details. It couldn’t be a mistake, could it? The author would obviously be trying to tell you something. So it must be with the Word of God. Or was the Cosmic Blunderer suffering from Alzheimer’s and simply forgot when he got to Genesis 2 that he was repeating what he had just said in Genesis 1? Is he a doddery old fool?
Genesis 1:26: Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image and likeness to rule the fish in the sea, the birds of heaven, the cattle, all wild animals, and all reptiles that crawl upon the earth.’
(“Let US”? How many monotheistic Gods are there? And note that humanity has God-sanctioned dominion over the animals, so let’s have no complaints about hamburgers. Did you know there’s a McDonald’s in Heaven!)
Genesis 1:27: So God created man in his own image; in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
(Note the completely bizarre switch from “he created HIM” to “male and female he created THEM”. Is it being said that original humanity was hermaphroditic and double, as some ancient Greeks, including Plato, had suggested? Or is it being said that a man and woman were created EQUALLY, with no nonsense about Eve subsequently being made from Adam’s rib. Why can’t God communicate in simple English?!!!)
Genesis 2:7: Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life.
Kabbalists noted a radical problem between Genesis 1:27 and Genesis 2:7. The former says: “God CREATED man” while the latter says “God FORMED a man”. Now, Created and Formed have different meanings. “Created” is FROM NOTHING. Formed is the rearrangement of something that ALREADY EXISTS, namely the dust of the ground in this case. So, was Adam created or formed, or are two different events being described?
Surely Genesis should be the most airtight part of the Bible, yet it has already fallen part by Chapter 2 (not that Chapter 1 was remotely convincing, you understand). If you submitted Genesis 1 and 2 in an exam, the examiner would think you were retarded and fail you. Surely we should expect more of God than that he should be the Cosmic Dunce wearing a yellow pointy hat with an enormous “D” on it. Only people with a subnormal IQ could take the Bible seriously.
__________
Adam Kadmon:
The Kabbalists proposed that Genesis 1 actually referred to the creation not of Adam but the being called Adam Kadmon (meaning “Primal Man”). He is the Perfect or Complete Man, like the Platonic Perfect Form of Man. The Adam Kadmon Soul is said to be the primordial soul that contains all human souls.
In this view, Adam of Genesis 2 is formed in the image not of God but of Adam Kadmon (who was previously created hermaphroditically in the image of God). The earthly Adam is then given a soul from Adam Kadmon. Genesis 1 and 2 are thus reconciled. Ingenious, huh?
Adam Kadmon is the “original man” (“heavenly man”), created in the image of God. As the equivalent of an incorruptible, immutable, Eternal Platonic Form, Adam Kadmon takes no part in corruptible, earthlike, material essence. Material man is made of clay or dust, but not Adam Kadmon, who is a perfect Idea in the Mind of God.
Much of the intellectual underpinning of Kabbalism originates with Philo, a Jewish philosopher and contemporary of Jesus Christ who lived in Alexandria in Egypt. Philo held that Judaism was the sum-total of human wisdom, although he seemed to spend most of his time stealing from Plato. Philo’s Judaism, like St Paul’s Christianity, attempted to blend ancient Greek philosophy with Judaism. While Christianity tried to appeal to the pagan world, Philonic Judaism attracted Jewish mystics (who later became the Kabbalists). Kabbalah has a great deal in common with Gnosticism, Hermeticism and Neoplatonism. They all originated in Alexandria, with Kabbalah being the Jewish version of the other three systems. There were many disputes between Gnostics and Kabbalists because the Gnostics regarded the God of Kabbalah (Jehovah) as the Devil.
In Kabbalah, the eternal Platonic domain of Perfect Forms is relocated to the mind of Jehovah. To be more exact, the Perfect Forms are thoughts in the mind of an emanation of Jehovah that Philo called the Logos (the Word) – and Jesus Christ was of course later called “the Word” by Christians.
Adam Kadmon, the heavenly man, was the perfect image of the Logos (not of God himself as Ein Sof/ Ein who cannot be represented or have any likeness or image). Heavenly Adam was neither man nor woman but rather an incorporeal Idea. Earthly Adam, who was later fashioned from clay by the Logos, was corporeal and belonged to the world of the senses. In short, Adam Kadmon, primordial Adam, is the Platonic Idea, and Adam, Earthly Adam of flesh and blood, is the image, the inferior copy, the simulacrum of the Idea, brought to life by the Logos (whom Plato would have called the Demiurge).
Earthly Adam was formed as a man-woman (androgynous) and then the Logos separated them into Adam and Eve. So, the Idea of Adam pre-existed Adam’s earthly appearance. But imagine if Adam Kadmon himself could somehow incarnate on the Earth. Would he not be Man-God, the Messiah, the Word made flesh? In other words, it’s not too difficult for Christians to argue that whereas ordinary human beings are simulacra of Adam Kadmon, Jesus Christ was Adam Kadmon himself – the Heavenly Adam, the perfect image of the Logos come to the world. (So close is the relationship between the Logos and Adam Kadmon, the perfect Idea of the Logos, that they may effectively be regarded as one and the same. In Christian terms, this would make Jesus Christ Adam Kadmon.)
In this view, Adam Kadmon is the original man, and all actual men are his inferior copies. Nevertheless, the divine order is present in humanity. Earth is a lesser Heaven. As above, so below. Everything that applies to Adam Kadmon can equally be applied to humanity, just at a lower level of actualisation.
In the Zohar, the heavenly man, Adam Kadmon, is the embodiment of the ten divine manifestations – the Sephirot – hence earthly man is too, but imperfectly. The heavenly Adam stepped forth out of the original darkness and formed the earthly Adam, shaping him in his own image. That is the sacred link between man and God.
__________
St Paul and “Adam Theory”:
1 Corinthians 15:45-50 45 The Scriptures tell us, “The first man, Adam, became a living person.” But the last Adam—that is, Christ—is a life-giving Spirit.
46 What comes first is the natural body, then the spiritual body comes later.
47 Adam, the first man, was made from the dust of the earth, while Christ, the second man, came from heaven.
48 Earthly people are like the earthly man, and heavenly people are like the heavenly man.
49 Just as we are now like the earthly man, we will someday be like the heavenly man.
50 What I am saying, dear brothers and sisters, is that our physical bodies cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. These dying bodies cannot inherit what will last forever.
According to St Paul, the earthly Adam with his body of flesh and blood can be converted into a heavenly Adam with a spiritual body. Thus St Paul effectively destroys resurrection theory and replaces it with “body transformation” theory. Physical bodies are converted into spiritual bodies when they go to heaven. This is much more like Platonism than Judaism, hence why it appealed to pagans. It’s remarkable that neither St Paul himself, nor of any of his Christian followers, realised he had killed Christianity by talking of spiritual bodies.
St Paul said: (1 Corinthians 15:13-14) But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen again. And if Christ be not risen again, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.
Yet it turns out he’s not talking about resurrection at all. According to his own words, the dead don’t get their physical bodies back and walk the Earth again. Rather, they are converted from material simulacra of Adam Kadmon to spiritual, and hence heavenly, copies of Adam Kadmon (the Logos). That isn’t resurrection – that’s matter being converted to spirit. It has absolutely nothing to do with resurrection, which is a materialistic theory. Isn’t it amazing that St Paul, the true founder of Christianity, didn’t even know what resurrection was even though he made it the keystone of Christianity?
Jesus Christ himself supposedly came back from the dead with a physical body that could be touched by Doubting Thomas. In Corinthians, St Paul, by speaking only of spiritual bodies, denies that Jesus Christ returned with a physical body: he has therefore denied the reality of Christ’s physical resurrection, the central doctrine of the Christian faith.
Why does no Christian seem to notice these rather important details? If Christ didn’t come back from the dead with a physical body then it means he came back as a GHOST – as a phantom, an apparition – and Thomas wouldn’t have been able to touch him.
Islam, of course, says that Christ’s crucifixion was an illusion, and Christian Gnosticism said that Jesus was never anything other than a phantom in the first place since no divine messenger would ever enter the evil physical world and put himself at Satan’s mercy.
St Paul, rather than refuting these heretical positions, has merely added fuel to the fire. If Christ came back to the Earth as an apparition then Christianity is a theory of GHOSTS interacting with the living! But if he did in fact come back as a physical being, how did he get to heaven (via ye olde rocket?). And if he was a physical being then St Paul was WRONG about spiritual bodies. Scheeez! Come on you Christians, explain yourselves. Get off your ass, Popey boy, and try making sense of your own religion. Aren’t you the Vicar of Christ? Aren’t you able to make ex cathedra infallible pronouncements? So why haven’t you infallibly cleared up all the mysteries of Christianity, especially those regarding the Trinity, the Incarnation, the Resurrection and the soul? Cat got your tongue? Why the deafening silence?
Resurrection, at its most basic, is the statement that people can come back from the dead. However, proper “Soul Theory” denies that true death ever takes place. The soul NEVER DIES. All that ever happens is that a physical body perishes, but the soul to which it was attached never dies, so what do people actually mean when they talk of “coming back from the dead”? Bodies die, not souls. Souls don’t come back from the dead since they never died in the first place, and dead bodies can’t be reanimated because that’s scientifically impossible.
In terms or reincarnation, everyone understands that a soul migrates from one body to another. At no time is the soul “dead” and at no time does it come back from the dead. Resurrection theory is the bizarre notion that a soul, although immortal, is forever linked to a single body. There is thus complete confusion over what happens to the soul at death. Do souls and bodies both die and then get restored to life together, or do souls separate from bodies and the soul goes to heaven while the body awaits physical resurrection at the “Last Judgement”, in which case what is a “spiritual body”? Is it a spiritual body or a physical body that gets sent to Heaven or Hell on Judgment Day? What’s the relationship between a soul and spiritual body? Can a soul exist without a spiritual body; if so what’s the point of a spiritual body? If a spiritual body is immaterial why does it need to wait until Judgment Day to be resurrected? And so on. No Christian has EVER managed to explain any of this. They say they have faith, but faith in what? They can’t even articulate what resurrection is even though it’s the foundation of their “faith”.
******
In Kabbalah, Adam Kadmon is the first being to emerge from the infinite Godhead, Ein Sof, and is essentially indistinguishable from the deity (just as God the Son is said to be essentially indistinguishable from God the Father in Christian Trinity theory). Humanity, having been created in God’s image, is comprised of the very same cosmic elements, the Sephirot, which comprise the “body” of Adam Kadmon. Adam Kadmon is humanity writ large. He is the cosmos with a body and a soul. He is the macrocosm and we are the microcosm. As above, so below.
__________
The Kabbalah Division of the Soul:
THE ZOHAR, the primary book of the Kabbalah, says that the soul is divided into three parts: nephesh, the organic breath; ruach the spirit; and nechama the power of man, the most elevated aspect of the soul. The nephesh is the lowest grade of soul, the animal part. The ruach is a higher level of consciousness than the nephesh and sustains the animal soul. The nechama is the highest level of spiritual development.
When a person is born, the first soul he receives is the nephesh – the animal soul – through which a person has the opportunity to raise up his condition from the physical to a more spiritual level, at which point he acquires the ruach. If he raises himself to a still higher level he is adorned with the nechama.
The possession of an animal soul gives a human the scope to elevate that primitive aspect himself. If he succeeds, he has made the world a better place. All people are tasked with imbuing matter with spirituality in order to purify it and draw it upwards. Thus, a human being is a combination of brute and god, reflecting and mediating the forces of the cosmos. A person can help to improve the quality of matter by drawing himself towards God or can make base matter even baser by allowing primitive forces to overwhelm him.
__________
The Tree of Life:
KABBALAH depicts the Tree of Life in the form of ten interconnected nodes, analogous to the ten Sephirot. The Kabbalist obsession with ten comes from the Pythagorean tetraktys. All systems based on ten are unwittingly paying tribute to Pythagoras and the Illuminati.
__________
Satan:
SATAN, the leader of the Fallen Angels, was the “tester” of Creation and of God. Satan is also the tester of humanity. Dialectically, Satan sums up all those forces that oppose the progress of knowledge, self-consciousness and the betterment of all. A monad (soul) can perfect itself and become God, but a monad can also make itself immensely powerful and then, instead of becoming God (with all of the benevolent connotations that implies), it can make itself Satan and seek to use its power in the pursuit of supreme selfishness.
The Abrahamic God – wishing to have power over everyone and to be worshipped and obeyed by everyone – is exactly how we define Satan. He is a false God who, in his egotism, imagines himself the True God. Just as any monad can emulate God (Abraxas), it can also emulate Satan (Jehovah).
Satan’s dialectical opponent is not Abraxas but Lucifer. A monad can evolve to a position where it is immensely powerful but absolutely committed to service to others rather than to itself. While Satan is the God of Selfishness and of all relentlessly selfish people (such as the super rich and privileged), Lucifer is the God of Altruism and all those who are helpful, selfless and cooperative are his followers.
Abraxas is the dialectical synthesis of Satan and Lucifer. Abraxas grasps the higher rational truth that selfishness is not always wrong, nor altruism always right. It’s imperative to achieve the right balance if you are to achieve self-perfection. Abraxas exists beyond good and evil: he is supra-moral.
All souls can become God, but they could equally stop at the prior stage of Satan or Lucifer. A universe of Satans would be truly Hell. A universe of Lucifers would be a kind of Heaven, but a lesser one because in order to maximise one’s own potential, one cannot always be obsessed with the welfare of others. Sometimes your own welfare must come first if you are to be all you can be.Abraxas, Satan and Lucifer may all be considered cosmic archetypes, but they are also real beings, the ones that first brought these archetypes into existence.
The universe primordially evolved a being who was utterly selfish at all times and that being has never changed his nature. He was and is Satan. He is the cosmic, archetypal Satan, but each world has its own Satan, and ours is the God of Abraham. All of the members of the Old World Order are Satans as works-in-progress. They are all destined to be future Satans tyrannising unfortunate future worlds, and they will have learned all of their lessons from the first Satan. Like him, they will consider themselves the only True God, who created everything.

Angels and Demons:
According to Kabbalah, each of us has an angel and demon allocated to us. They’re not guardian angels trying to save us or agent provocateurs trying to get us into trouble. Rather they are accountants of sin and virtue, calculators of good and evil. At the end of your life, their calculations are presented to the Judges of the afterlife and your fate is sealed without appeal.
__________
The Four Worlds:
Kabbalists speak of worlds of existence: Emanation, Creation, Formation and Action. The divine order emanates from God. Creation can be thought of as the domain of Platonic Forms. The world of Formation is where matter is formed into shapes according to the templates of the divine Forms. The world of Action is where the Formed beings do things. Within humanity, there are four corresponding levels: divinity, spirit, psyche (soul) and body.
It is said that fallen Adam is initially stuck in the world of body and action, but as his spiritual qualities develop, he becomes increasingly aware of the Divine Presence at all levels. Adam Kadmon also has four levels called Will, Intellect, Emotion and Action. It is said that every one of us was present in Adam Kadmon before the Biblical Creation. We were therefore all pre-existent souls. Kabbalists say that the first chapter of Genesis is actually describing the copying of a pre-existent Divine World of Ideas (Forms) that emanated from God. Therefore, Creation wasn’t from nothing but from an emanated world containing all of the design templates of Creation.
Frankly, the Kabbalists seem to have one world too many: they prefer four worlds over three, but three would be more logical. In the Platonic scheme, from which Kabbalah is largely borrowed, there is a Domain of Forms and a material world where those Forms are physically copied. If we said that the Forms emanated from God, we would have three worlds: Emanation (Forms); Creation or Formation (material copies of Forms) and Action (the events of the physical world). “Creation” implies that matter is summoned from nothing while “formation” implies that pre-existing matter is shaped appropriately. Creation and formation technically contradict each other. In Kabbalah, there’s always a tension between emanation, creation and formation: only two from three are actually needed.
__________
Jacob’s Ladder:
Jacob’s Ladder is nothing other than the ladder of existence, showing angels ascending to and descending from Heaven. Jacob is dreaming when he has his vision i.e. he is asleep when his spiritual awakening occurs. We are all asleep and we all need to be spiritually awoken. Then we can start ascending the ladder to heaven.
Kabbalah says that Creation is filled with spiritual beings such as angels who are not perceived by ordinary people but whose presence may sometimes be felt in sacred places where consciousness can be raised to a higher level.
Kabbalistic angels are not physical: they don’t eat, drink or have sex. Nor do they have any individual will. They are messengers of the upper worlds and they simply carry out the orders and tasks assigned to them. Apparently, God first taught the secrets of existence to the highest archangels who comprised the inner council of the Court of the Almighty. (This seems somewhat futile if all angels have in fact no will of their own.)
After Adam’s expulsion from Eden, an archangel called Raziel (whose name means “Secrets of God”) gave Adam a secret Kabbalistic book showing how he might return to Eden. Not only that, Raziel said that as the image of God, when Adam looked into the mirror of existence he would perceive the Divine Face itself.
Kabbalah has a cyclical view of time. Each cycle ends with Judgment Day. All spiritually perfected human beings blend into Adam Kadmon and this image of God then sees the reflection of its own divinity in the accumulated experience of perfected humanity. In that infinitely exalted moment, God beholds God. The image of God then merges with the reality of God and dissolve firstly into Ein Sof (Infinity) and finally into Ein (No thing). God has at last returned to himself. The universe has disappeared…until the next time. And there is always a next time.
******
The process of humanity perfecting itself can be thought of as a mirror, dirty and indistinct at first, being polished more and more until at last it can furnish a stainless reflection, perfect in every way. In Kabbalah, God continually hides then reveals himself. He oscillates between Deus Absconditus (the God Hidden) and Deus Manifestus (God revealed). Above all, he reveals himself to himself.
his is remarkably similar to Hinduism where the logic of that religion is that God creates Maya (Illusion) to hide himself from himself, and the purpose of the cosmic journey is to overcome Illusion and allow God once more to see himself as he really is. In Illuminism, the cosmic journey is about maximum potential being transformed into maximum actualisation (perfection), and then starting again. At the outset of the process, God is hidden. At the end, he is revealed.
So, there is a degree of similarity between these three views (Kabbalah, Hinduism and Illuminism). They all share the notion that there is a time when God is hidden and then loses himself through a certain process involving illusion, alienation, separation or exile involving the material world, and then, after overcoming many obstacles and false realities, God finds himself once more. In the case of Illuminism, God becomes fully self-conscious and attains an infinitely higher level than the one with which he began.
In none of these systems does existence come to a halt in the manner of the Abrahamist view where eternal bliss is achieved at the End of Days. As all logical religions understand, if a final state were possible, it would already have been reached since an eternity has preceded this present moment. We know that existence is cyclical for the simple fact that a) it is always becoming and b) we are 13.7 billion years out from the event known as the Big Bang. What happened before the Big Bang if not infinite previous Big Bangs that all unfolded according to the same cosmic script? And when our Big Bang universe perishes there will be another one along in due course. Becoming can never be converted into being, and becoming goes on forever. It’s always becoming and as soon as it attains any conceivable “final state” that merely signals the initial state of a new cycle.
__________
Hidden Sparks of Divinity:
It is said in Kabbalah that sparks of Divinity are hidden in everyday objects. There are those that are always on the lookout for these “hidden lights” and seek to redeem or absorb them. Perhaps Kabbalists should invent “hidden light” detectors like metal detectors. Beep.
******
There are a few interesting ideas in Kabbalah but a lot of it is mind-numbingly dull – written by autistics, one would imagine, obsessively returning to the diagram of the Sephirot and then reinterpreting it over and over and over again until all meaning has vanished and just gibberish is left.
__________
Illuminism:
IN ILLUMINISM, God does not so much want to see himself reflected in a mirror, as to become self-conscious and know who and what he is. Once he has dialectically reached the Absolute, he has achieved Absolute Knowledge, Absolute Freedom, Absolute Mind and full consciousness of the Absolute Idea of God. Pythagoras and the Oracle of Apollo at Delphi both proclaimed, “Know Thyself.” That is the divine formula too: God wants to know himself. As above, so below.
__________
The Illuminati:
WE ARE THE “NEW PEOPLE”.
WE ARE THE REVOLT. WE ARE THE REBELLION. WE ARE THE LIBERATION.
WE ARE THE HERALDS OF THE FINAL WAR OF HUMAN FREEDOM.
We are the advocates of THEOGENESIS – the birth and growth of Gods.
The Illuminati were the leaders of the First Enlightenment, but final victory was not secured. So now it’s time for the Second Enlightenment, the War of Reason versus Faith, and this time COMPLETE victory must be achieved. This time the process must go all the way. Abrahamism and privilege must be eradicated from our world. It’s time to bring the light to all the dark corners of the world. This is our declaration of war on all the forces of endarkenment. This is our declaration of independence. This is our charter of freedom.
A New Humanity. A New Direction. An equal CHANCE for everyone.
We will create our own Eden and our own Tree of Knowledge, from which everyone will eat without fear. We will have a Tree of Life that invigorates everyone. Revalue all values. START again. Build paradise. No monarchs, no popes, no preachers, no prophets, no princes, no privileged elites.
We are the Plan. We are the ANSWER.
Join the Resistance. Change the world.

What have we achieved?
The information provided to the first six degrees of the Illuminati (now available through the AC [www.armageddonconspiracy.c
We provide an analysis of all the major political systems of the world and show how they are all deficient in comparison with our political SYSTEM – MERITOCRACY.
We provide an analysis of three economic systems: FREE-market capitalism, communism and National Socialism. The optimal economic system is a hybrid of these systems and we refer to it as social, public or meritocratic capitalism, which is subordinated to the requirements of the Meritocratic Constitution and not of free markets (which are invariably not free and are rigged by rich cartels).
We provide an in-depth psychological analysis of the world and explain why people behave as they do, and how their deficiencies can be remedied.
We provide a new MODEL of society based on community rather than on the selfish family unit.
We provide a synthesis of philosophy, mathematics and science called mathematical idealism (or mathematical panpsychism), which provides the RATIONAL rather than faith-based foundation for religion. Illuminism is the world’s SOLE rational religion grounded in Logos rather than Mythos. Science – which is in fact mathematical materialism – is a subset of mathematical idealism. Science is nothing other than a version of Illuminism lacking the three most important numbers in the world: zero, infinity and the imaginary NUMBER. These three numbers are the ones that define time, mind consciousness, the soul, the afterlife and God i.e. the primary concepts of religion are actually mathematical concepts. Anything that cannot be defined mathematically is meaningless. Mathematics alone provides Absolute Truth. Nothing else can. Nothing other than mathematics exists. Any philosophy, religion or science that does not invoke mathematics is bogus. Mathematics is the anchor of the universe.
Illuminism offers an entirely integrated and consistent world-view. It offers the world an optimal political, economic and psychological system, one capable of turning humans into Gods. It offers a rational religion that requires no faith and needs no Creator God to whom we are all enslaved. It guarantees a soul, an afterlife and the OPPORTUNITY to become God on the basis of the only source of infallible truth – mathematics. It explains all paranormal phenomena mathematically. It explains time mathematically.
Illuminism is the explanation of EVERYTHING. It has attracted, in secret, many of the world’s finest minds who have worked on it patiently for millennia to bring it to its current omega STATE.
If you are LOOKING FOR the truth – a truth that embraces religion – Illuminism is your only choice. Illuminism has no religious competitors. Its only opponent is atheistic scientific materialism, and that, ultimately, is seen to be a subset of Illuminism that suffers from a catastrophic misunderstanding of two numbers in particular – zero and infinity. Science cannot produce a Grand Unified Theory of Everything because it cannot handle zero and infinity in its equations. The last hope of scientific materialism – so-called M-theory – attempts to make it impossible for the NUMBER zero to exist. If zero doesn’t exist then division by zero can never take place and thus catastrophic infinities can never appear in the equations of science. There’s just one problem – why should nature allow all numbers other than zero to have an actual, real existence? How can you have a mathematical system lacking its origin? Mathematics without zero (hence without its inverse, infinity) is what we describe as “incomplete”. The mathematics of Illuminism is based on COMPLETE MATHEMATICS. There are no missing numbers. Even the imaginary number is assigned ontological reality in Illuminism (the imaginary number frequently appears in science and engineering equations, but no one knows what it’s doing there and it’s regarded merely as a necessary instrument for getting the right answer). Whereas “real” numbers are the basis of space, “imaginary” numbers are the basis of time. What could be simpler?
The mathematical formalism of Illuminism ADDRESSES all of these mathematical issues in great detail.
Illuminism, when it becomes widely known, will sweep the world. Why? Because every single rational person on earth will embrace it. The whole scientific community will come onboard once they see that Illuminism is nothing but science with three numbers added: zero, infinity and the imaginary number; but these happen to be the most important numbers of all that address the BIG QUESTIONS of existence. Scientists will see that Illuminism, not M-theory, is the true Grand Unified Theory of Everything because it’s based on the only possible candidate for unifying ontology and epistemology: complete mathematics.
This is the gospel of the Illuminati.
“Number rules the universe.” -Motto of the Pythagorean School (the Illuminati).

Conclusion:
Since 1576, it has been impossible for any rational person to be an Abrahamist. An infinite universe full of stars inconceivably far away refutes any concept of a Creation centred on Earth. God did not make this world. He did not make Adam and Eve. There was no Garden of Eden, no Fall, no Original Sin, no need for Moses, Jesus Christ or Mohammed. The whole thing is just one enormous myth that has captivated the imagination of the human race and become tied to a sinister brainwashing machine used by certain powerful parties to control the credulous, superstitious masses.
There was a time when the myth was supported by the science of the day and it was plausible to be an Abrahamist, but modern science has destroyed the myth. The facts are utterly incompatible with any religion remotely like Abrahamism. It wasn’t stupid to be an Abrahamist 1,000 years ago, but it certainly is now. The Eastern religions are much more scientifically plausible than Western Abrahamism.
If humanity is rational, hasn’t the time come to accept the scientific facts and consign Abrahamism to its grave? Abrahamism is false from beginning to end. It is the most comprehensively refuted system of beliefs in human history. That billions continue to believe in the false and discredited religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam is testimony to the most horrific conclusion – most human beings have no relationship whatever with the truth. They would much rather believe comforting lies and fantasies than scientific evidence and the laws of reason. They eagerly plunge themselves into the ignis fatuus – the fool’s fire – of faith. One day it will burn them to death.
The time has come for the values of the Enlightenment to prevail. It’s time for light and reason. It’s time for rational governments to take active steps to suppress Abrahamism. The hour has grown late. We must now cure the disease of faith and superstition. Abrahamism, with its boo-hiss pantomime characters and dubious heroes, has stridden the world stage too long. The curtain is falling. The show is over. The Abrahamist God – Jehovah/ Allah/ Jesus Christ is dead.
Thanks be to God – Abraxas!

The Impossibility of Finite Creation:
“Nature is an infinite sphere, whose centre is everywhere and whose circumference is nowhere.” –Pascal
The Ancient Greeks typically believed that a stationary Earth was fixed at the centre of a finite universe, with the cosmic boundary set by the crystal sphere of fixed stars, and this view was adopted, with a refinement or two, by Abrahamism. Copernicus, although placing the Sun rather than the Earth at the centre of the universe, continued to advocate spheres, circular orbits and a finite universe. That said, Copernicus located the sphere of fixed stars so far away that the universe was now much vaster than anyone had ever previously suggested, and it was no longer much of a leap to consider that it might in fact be infinite. Although Copernicus didn’t take that step, his successor, Illuminatus Thomas Digges, certainly did.
Illuminists Nicholas of Cusa and Giordano Bruno both held that the idea of a finite universe was absurd because an infinite, omnipotent God would never tolerate bounds. He needed an infinite canvas for his infinite power and knowledge.
We might conclude that a finite universe was possible if God lavished infinite love on it, but we can rule that out thanks to the legions of damned (98.3% of humanity, apparently!) in Hell. “God” seems rather more inclined to infinite hate.
Nicholas and Bruno were both obsessed with infinity – infinity of space and time and spiritual infinity as well as physical infinity. Only infinity could reflect the infinite God. Finitude was a contradiction in terms in relation to the infinite God.
Bruno wrote: “The One Infinite is perfect; simply and of itself nothing can be greater or better than it. This is the one Whole everywhere, God, universal nature. Naught but the infinite can be a perfect image and reflection thereof, for the finite is imperfect; every sensible world is imperfect, wherefore evil and good, matter and form, light and darkness, sadness and joy unite, and all things are everywhere in change and motion. But all things come in infinity to the order of Unity, Truth and Goodness; whereby it is named universum.”
Bruno regarded infinity in terms of freedom. A finite universe was like a prison. Infinity destroyed the walls of the prison and allowed endless possibilities. Enormous, wide spaces were opened up physically as well as for the imagination. Inexhaustible treasures were now available: the ultimate cosmic treasure hoard.
Bruno wrote: “There is a single general space, a single vast immensity which we may freely call Void: in it are innumerable globes like this one on which we live and grow. This space we declare to be infinite.”
Elsewhere, he said: “Thus is the excellence of God magnified and the greatness of his kingdom made manifest; he is glorified not in one, but in countless suns; not in a single earth, but in a thousand, I say, in an infinity of worlds.”
Many people find infinity disturbing, but what are they so worried about? The basic unit of the physical universe is a galaxy. A galaxy is made up of more than a hundred billion stars. Each star is potentially the centre of a solar system, being orbited by several planets, one of which might be suitable for the evolution of life.
Our own solar system and galaxy is nothing other than a reflection of the pattern of the WHOLE UNIVERSE. There’s nothing out there that’s different. Infinity is just endless repetition of this pattern. If you know one element of the pattern you know the whole lot. By concentrating on our own world, we know how intelligent life on all worlds operates. Reason and logic are the same everywhere. All thinking beings think exactly as we do. They are all subject to the same psychological forces. They may have evolved radically different cultures from ours, but we would still recognise those cultures. Humanity itself could have developed differently. Across our website, we have illustrated key turning points in history where humanity might have gone down entirely different paths. Christianity might never have happened, nor Islam. Imagine a world without those pernicious religions. The Enlightenment might have swept away all monarchs and old religions.
Although history could have been drastically different, it would still have been recognisable. We can all imagine much better human races than the one we have now; but we can also imagine more horrific human races. Imagine the whole world under Sharia Law or Judaism. Life wouldn’t be worth living.
Don’t become obsessed with the possibilities of infinity. There’s nothing out there that’s new or alien. We have it all on our own doorstep. In fact we have it all within ourselves. We are made of stardust and we are a microcosm of the macrocosm. As above, so below. The answers to everything lie within ourselves. Look inwards, not outwards. YOU are the answer to your questions if you did but know it.
Bruno wrote, “Open the door through which we may look into the limitless, unified firmament! We are the door! You are the door!

Mythos People versus Logos People:
A Mythos person – steeped in “story-thinking” based on emotion – is typically extraverted and belongs to the feeling and sensing personality types.
A Logos person – preoccupied with logic, philosophy, science and mathematics – is typically introverted and belongs to the thinking and intuitive personality types.
A study of well-socialised, extraverted school students in the Netherlands showed that they couldn’t get away from science subjects quickly enough.
Nearly all of the problems in our world arise from Mythos people. They are the ones who hate reason and logic, who have no respect for mathematics, science, philosophy and psychology, who flock to dumb Mythos religions and who form fanatical, irrational attachments to mad ideas.
All Abrahamists are Mythos people. They are the people of faith; the uttermost enemy of reason. Slaves, submissives and sheeple are overwhelmingly Mythos people. They are nostalgic, sentimental, other- and tradition-directed. They love spectacle. They are attracted to royalty. They love celebrities. They are driven by materialistic rather than spiritual values. Christians and Jews are extremely greedy capitalists. Muslims have a fake spirituality: the enormous prayer gatherings of the Muslims reveal that the most important thing for them is to be SEEN to be a good Muslim rather than to actually be a good Muslim.
One of the most disturbing elements of any analysis of how to improve the human race is that things would unquestionably vastly improve if we had a radically different type of humanity where Logos introverts were just as numerous as Mythos extraverts rather than outnumbered some 4 to 1. Certainly, any nation that wishes to become the greatest in the world must actively engage in a programme to enhance the Logos ability of citizens and make them much less susceptible to Mythos thinking. No.1 on the list of things to do is to remove the Mythos religions of Abrahamism from our culture. They are the source of nearly everything that is wrong with our world. They are the essence of irrationality, faith, simplistic parables, fanaticism and servility.
If we want a rational world, we cannot teach children irrationality and declare that irrationality (faith) is the key to life.
End the phoney war. Destroy Abrahamism. Build a new world order. Destroy the old, failed ways that brought us to where we are now – a world of almost universal misery and woe apart from the privileged elite who have never had it so good.

Native American Spirituality:
“SS” Sent us a fascinating account of Native American spirituality:
Prior to the “arrival” (i.e. invasion) of the Europeans in 1492, there were several thousand different tribes, so the expression “Native American spirituality” suggests a commonality that just doesn’t exist. Native American spirituality encompasses a wide range of beliefs and practices and is far too broad a topic to limit to only a few pages. Instead, I will attempt to approach, with care and respect, some generalizations and touch upon the basic and common principles that each tribe shared.
Basically, the foundation of Native American spirituality is a mystical connection and interdependence between humans, animals, the land and all of Creation. It’s the respectful means of honoring spirituality, seeking knowledge and embracing the underlying respect for communion and harmony with nature that represent the core features found in a variety of Native American belief systems. Long before Darwin taught a similar truth, Native Americans saw no difference between man and his animal brothers and sisters.
Most of the indigenous cultures in North America had developed rational spiritual (religious) systems that included creation myths that were transmitted orally from one generation down to the next that explained the origins of their societies and all of existence.
Most Native Americans worshiped an omnipotent, omniscient Creator. The Master Spirit could assume a variety of forms as well as both genders. They also recognized and respected several lesser supernatural entities, including an evil god who dealt out suffering, disaster and death. The people were attentive to the heart of nature. Members of most tribes believed in an afterlife and the immortality of the human soul. Nature was the great equalizer. They thanked whatever animal they hunted and killed that gave up its life to feed the people because they knew that in due time, they would also share the equal fate of death.
Native American societies enlisted the aid of the supernatural in controlling the natural and social world and each tribe had its own set of religious rituals and ceremonies committed to that aim. An individual might try to entice or pacify powerful spiritual beings through private prayer or by sacrificing valuable items such as food, furs and tobacco. Entire villages would call upon shamans whom they believed had supernatural powers. It was the shaman’s role to seek assistance from the spirit world and Gods to ensure a successful hunt, victory in battle or a good harvest. Shaman abilities included controlling and manipulating weather conditions and predicting the future. They would also assist individuals with dream interpretations, curing illnesses or casting spells, etc.
There is a common concept of dual divinity found throughout the belief systems where a creator is responsible for the construction of the world and a mythical individual (hero or a trickster) that introduces culture, proper behavior and teaches the people the means of providing sustenance to the tribe. In addition, there are underworld spirits that control the weather and interact with humans or the Shaman.
Creation legends vary from tribe to tribe but recurring themes are quite common. The universe is seen as multi‐layered where humans climbed from an underworld to populate the Earth. Another common creation myth is the earth‐diver. The story goes that in the beginning there was only the sky above and the waters below. An animal (the creature can vary depending on the relevance to the tribe) dove below the primal waters and brought up mud and earth and other materials to form the land. It should be noted that a flooded earth is a consistent element presented in the mythology.
Native American beliefs and practices form a fully integrated and central part of their very being. There is no such thing as a definitive Native American religion. They did not have distinct prophets like those found in the western monotheistic religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. However, some “prophets” included White Buffalo Woman of the Lakota and Dakota tribes, Handsome Lake in the Iroquois Confederacy and Sweet Medicine of the Cheyenne.
Native American creation myths are also significantly different compared to Biblical Creation because these myths tell us that creation is an ongoing process that we are taking part in all the time. Creation isn’t something that happened 5,000 years ago or trillions of years ago. We are engaged in the Creation Story at this very moment.
Native American creation myths put humans in a very special place with respect to nature. People are not given authority or control over nature and other creatures. Instead, all co‐inhabitants of our planet (animals, plants and minerals) are our companions and guides. Mutual respect is required when interacting with animals, trees and birds. Mutual and deep respect is also necessary for natural forces such as the wind and rain. These beliefs forbid the despoiling of the environment for selfish reasons as well as produce a convincing spiritual angst when observing the mistreatment of any aspect of existence.
Native Americans did not differentiate between the supernatural and the natural. They saw the “material” and “spiritual” as an interconnected realm of being. In their view, humans, animals and plants play a part of divinity through their close connection with guardian spirits, (“supernatural” entities) who instilled their “natural” relatives with life and power.
Consciousness and spirituality are familiar subjects among traditional tribal beliefs. Everything possesses a spirit or a special sacred quality such as certain areas or land formations. To the Native American, the sacred element is not realized by building a church or the consecration of a temple but rather it is an element of the land itself. To the tribe, these locations are respected and cherished and are the destination they travel in order to pray, bury their dead, seek vision or fast. Western thought enables us to demolish a church and rebuild it at a new location or exhume our dead and relocate them to another cemetery. These practices are completely unfamiliar to Native American spirituality. The location or the place itself is what contains the sacred element.
Native American spirituality can be viewed as an attitude and appreciation for our existence. It doesn’t fit squarely into the physical and psychological realms of existence but it can tune us into the interconnectedness of everything and inspire us to a new way of being (or becoming) in the world. I for one, think it’s beautiful.
******
Our Comment: Many thanks to “SS” for this insightful piece. Isn’t it time for a reappraisal of Native American spirituality? Modern America could learn a lot from the tribes that the US Army tried to exterminate. Would America be the monstrous palace of capitalist junk and trivia that it presently is if it had spent less time on Christianity and more time on Native American religious ideas?
******
SS added: “We have conscious awareness but unfortunately most people see themselves as different from nature. Most indigenous people knew that they were from nature so they would treat the world as they would treat their own body.
“I’m also on board with Meritocracy based on social capitalism. In a factory of 2,500, I’m the only manager that runs their department meritoriously. Others notice and have tried to break it down with nepotism that runs rampant here but now they all know better than to try and fuck with me. I wouldn’t care if an applicant was the son or daughter of the CEO of the company. Prove your worth. I had to, so I expect nothing but the same from those in my department.
“I guess I should mention that I’m from Canada but I’ve been living and working in China for years. I came over here to pay off student loans, fell in love with the place and never left! In my free time, I study Metaphysical Theology.”
Well said!

Kabbalah:
KABBALAH, the mystical Jewish tradition (“Kabbalah” actually means “tradition”) came to prominence in the Middle Ages thanks to the esoteric text the Zohar (the Book of “Splendour”), but its roots go back to ancient times and the outermost fringes of Judaic thought that were influenced by Gnosticism, Hermeticism and Neoplatonism. For that reason, mainstream Judaism hated Kabbalah and regarded it as heretical.
Kabbalah focused on cosmogony (the mythical/mystical account of the origin of the Universe), and the nature of God. It also had an “applied” strand whereby it tried to convert mystical knowledge into power over the real world. Thus Kabbalists were alchemists, numerologists, fortune tellers, psychics, clairvoyants, wonder workers and, above all, they specialised in the creation of artificial life. They were obsessed with the “golem” (Hebrew for “dumb or helpless”) – a creature composed of inanimate matter that could be brought to life by the most powerful and secret Kabbalistic knowledge concerning the true name of God. Adam was made of clay (“Adam” is Hebrew for “earth/clay”) and brought to life by God; Kabbalists thought they could do exactly the same thing with a clay golem (Frankenstein, made from parts of dead bodies, is also a kind of golem). The Brotherhood of the Shadows is the most secretive and powerful of modern Kabbalist groups and they are devoted to applying the most sophisticated modern science to Kabbalist mysticism in order to gain mastery of artificial life.
In Kabbalah, God in his essence is unknowable and is called “Infinity” (Ein Sof). The gulf between the infinite and finite worlds is bridged by a series of emanations (“sephirot”), which are progressively more accessible and knowable to the human mind. Most people can grasp the sephirot furthest from God, but to master the higher sephirot requires the esoteric knowledge of Kabbalah.
The sephirot are God’s actions in the world and he can be known through these actions (though not ultimately known since he is unknowable in the last degree). Human beings as images of God are microcosms of the macrocosm. The sephirot are reflected in each human being, and so fully understanding ourselves gives us the best and surest knowledge of God. Yet there is an implication that some part of the human being – the divine spark, the soul – is part of God and hence as ultimately unknowable as God himself.
Kabbalah provides the intellectual basis of Hasidic Judaism and is also favoured by many liberal Jews of a more experimental and spiritual kind. Together with Hinduism and Neoplatonism, Kabbalah influenced the modern Theosophical movement (theosophy means “wisdom about God” and is an attempt to attain a mystical insight into God’s nature).
__________
The Many Faces of the Jewish God:
IN KABBALAH, the highest manifestation of God – God the Transcendent – isn’t, strictly speaking, Ein Sof at all. It’s actually Nothing! In Hebrew, “Ein” means “No thing.” God is nowhere. God is Absolute Nothing. He is beyond existence. But then comes God’s second manifestation – “Ein Sof”, meaning infinite, boundless, limitless, without end i.e. God is everywhere; God is Absolutely Everything. If Ein is zero then Ein Sof is one. Ein and Ein Sof together are the totality of what is and is not.
Ein is God as Transcendence. Ein Sof is God as Immanence.It is said that Ein Sof has no attributes because attributes are properties of the finite domain, and Ein Sof is infinite. Equally, Ein – no thing – is without attributes. Therefore God has no attributes at all. He can’t be defined, described, comprehended, brought into rational understanding or anything else. He is beyond all of that. He is like the ineffable “One” of Neoplatonism, the mysterious and mystical source of everything.
From the endless, unfathomable Ein Sof God Source emanate ten realms of existence (like the emanations of Neoplatonism), each less glorious than the former, until we arrive at the final realm, the shabbiest of all, furthest from the divine light of God – and here our world is located. The ten emanations – called Sephirot – can be regarded as ten creative energy realms that intervene between the infinite, unknowable God (Ein Sof) and our created, finite world. Our task is to ascend through those realms, just as Dante’s Christian soul had to ascend through the crystal spheres to get to the Empyrean.
The Ein/Ein Sof scheme is similar to Hegel’s. He said that the cosmic dialectic begins with the thesis of “being” and antithesis of “nothing”, leading to the synthesis of “becoming”, which then relentlessly drives the universe forward dialectically until it culminates in the Absolute.
The Kabbalists have “nothing” (Ein) and “being” (Ein Sof – the infinite) underlying existence. Both are God, but at the stages before he gives rise to the world of limited things in which we exist.
To say that God created the world from nothing becomes a rather different concept from the one familiar to most people. If God IS nothing then God created the universe from HIMSELF, which immediately means that Creation is not separate from God after all, but absolutely imbued with God. There is nothing but God. Therefore this is suspiciously like pantheism.
Kabbalah says that the reason for existence is that “God wished to behold God”. In Hegel, God, as he is in himself, must alienate himself in the physical universe in order to become self-conscious and thus see and know himself. (Self-consciousness arises only through being aware of a consciousness that is different from your own and which you cannot subsume, hence self-consciousness needs multiplicity.) In other words, the physical world of alienation and multiplicity provides the mirror that God uses to behold himself.
Kabbalah then takes the strange step of claiming that as an act of free will, the Ein Sof was withdrawn from a particular place, allowing void to form, into which the mirror of existence could be placed. This cosmic act of withdrawal is known as Zimzum (“contraction”), and rabbis declare; “God’s place is the world, but the world is not God’s place.”
This “manoeuvre” is logically absurd. We already know that God himself is void (Ein – nothing), so if Ein Sof withdraws from any location, it simply reveals Ein. It is IMPOSSIBLE for Kabbalah to logically arrive at the position it does. It does so in order to separate God from Creation, even though the two cannot be separated. This is the stage where Kabbalah radically departs from Illuminism, Gnosticism, Hermeticism and Neoplatonism and becomes pure Jewish mysticism.
No intellectually honest person or religion could define God as “everything and nothing” (immanent and transcendent) and then arrive at the position that God can vacate part of existence. By definition, there is no scope for anything that is not-God. The heretical Jewish philosopher Spinoza understood this all too clearly. He’s often accused of being an atheist although he’s actually a pantheist: God is everything and everywhere.
Spinoza, a brilliant logician, might be said to be the only Jew who actually understood what Ein and Ein Sof implied. Other Jews shied away from the logical conclusion while Spinoza did not. He was a philosopher of integrity who went where logic dictated, not where theology pointed. Kabbalists wanted to have their cake and eat it.
Rabbi Nachman of Breslav said: “Only in the future will it be possible to understand the Zimzum that brought the ‘Empty Space’ into being, for we have to say of it two contradictory things: (1) the Empty Space came about through the Zimzum, where, as it were, He ‘limited’ His Godliness and contracted it from there, and it is as though in that place there is no Godliness and (2) the absolute truth is that Godliness must nevertheless be present there, for certainly nothing can exist without His giving it life.”
This, manifestly, is a paradox. You should always be on the alert when you encounter the word “paradox”. What it signifies is either that there’s a true phenomenon that’s hard to conceptualise in any familiar and common sense way, or that someone is talking absolute nonsense and wants to maintain two contradictory positions at once (“doublethink”). In these latter cases, there is no paradox at all. There is simply an error being described as a paradox to avoid calling it what it is.
Kabbalists say that if the “Infinite” did not restrict itself then nothing other than God could exist because God’s totality would overwhelm everything else. So, the argument goes, the immanent Infinite (God) withdraws itself from the area of the finite, and in that area he takes a transcendent role, standing above it, so to speak, but still in control of it.
What is Hegel’s (and Illuminism’s) answer to this “paradox”? It is that God does not withdraw himself from anything. The concept of Zimzum is absurd and kills off Kabbalah as a serious system of thought. The real cause of the Zimzum problem is that Jews can’t conceive of God as anything other than perfect. For them, imperfection can exist only where God is not. Zimzum is the idiotic contention that omnipresent perfection is able to contract part of itself to create a Godless void (nevertheless transcended by God). This instantly contradicts the original definition of God being everywhere.
The Kabbalists could have begun with a definition that God isn’t everywhere or isn’t perfect, but of course that would limit him and thus render him not God. So, they are between a logical rock and a hard place, and, as all bogus religions do, they create a specious argument that sounds profound but is nonsense. The easy and honest escape route is to acknowledge that God is indeed everywhere, but he is not perfect. God is EVOLVING towards perfection; he does not begin as perfection. He starts as infinite potential capable of being transformed into infinite actualisation.
There is no contradiction in a God of Becoming being both infinite and finite. The Infinite God is God in himself, but he is not complete and whole. He NEEDS the finite world; he needs to separate himself into infinite FINITE PARTS to create multiplicity, to create a dialectical competition for power between different centres of power. Through their conflict – through the dialectic of thesis, antithesis and synthesis – God pulls himself up by his own bootstraps to his Absolute Self.
We are all part of God and we can all become God. We ourselves are monads: souls associated with the number zero which have infinite capacity. The definition of God applies to all of us. We all begin as potential and we are all trying to optimise that potential. Before the birth of the finite world, before true differentiation and individuation entered the world, we all existed as one vast Zero.
Each of us is a zero, but the zeros put together form “Zero”: the collection of all zeros. An infinite number of zeros (dimensionless points) can be superimposed on one another. How is one to be distinguished from the other? What separates them? They can all share the same content because they all exist together. That is why Zero is “God in himself”.
Outside space and time, the collection of undifferentiated zeros represents a single God. It is via dimensionality (space and time) that the monads can start having a separate existence and be differentiated one from the other. Each monad can then grow to fulfil its own divine potential. At the “end of time”, all the perfected zeros come back together at a dimensionless point. But now “Zero” is the God of all Gods, the Absolute God, the Omega Point of existence.
The cosmic journey is: dimensionless existence (pure mind) generates dimensional existence (the material world with which the dimensionless world interacts) where all minds are individuated and perfected, and dimensional existence then returns to dimensionless existence but at an infinitely higher level where infinite potential has been converted to infinite actualisation. The universe has gone as far as it can. It is now PERFECTION.
The crucial conceptual difference between Illuminism and Kabbalah is that Illuminism is about the evolution of perfection whereas Kabbalah is about eternal perfection “imperfecting” itself in a particular place in order to “see itself”. But clearly it couldn’t have been perfect if a) it had a need to see itself and b) is able to create a non-perfect zone. How can perfection give rise to imperfection? It’s impossible. This is the age-old “paradox” of why a perfect being chooses to make a less perfect universe. Clearly, no such phenomenon can ever happen. All Creation religions involving a perfect Creator who creates imperfection are simply ludicrous and incredible.
Illuminism is about transforming potential into perfection. Abrahamism is about perfection making itself less perfect for no plausible reason. Jehovah’s created world is by definition less perfect than Jehovah. Why would perfection have any desire to gaze at imperfection? Even to have such a desire points to an intrinsic deficiency in God, hence he is imperfect.
All of the problems concerning God stem from the nonsensical idea that God is eternally perfect. As soon as that fallacy is recognised, religion makes perfect sense. How can an all-powerful, morally perfect being create an imperfect world of evil? Impossible, right? But there’s no mystery if God was not all-powerful or morally perfect to begin with. Rather, he is evolving towards those qualities.
Becoming (evolution) is the core of existence, not being (immutable, eternal perfection). This is the ancient debate between Heraclitus and Parmenides. Why did Plato’s brilliant system fail? It was because his Perfect Forms were pure being rather than evolving Forms.
One way or another, the “becoming versus being” debate is at the centre of nearly all intellectual disputes, and there can be no doubt that evolution (becoming) is the winner. Any anti-evolutionary theory of being (which includes Abrahamism) is automatically WRONG.
Having separated God from the void via Zimzum, Kabbalists then contradict themselves by saying that God must continuously maintain the created universe, hence not be absent from it: “The Divine life-force which brings all creatures into existence must constantly be present within them… were this life-force to forsake any created being for even one brief moment, it would revert to a state of utter nothingness, as before the creation.” (Yosef Wineberg).
Creation therefore requires God’s immanence, even though we were told that Zimzum was all about removing God’s immanence. No amount of pretentious posturing and pseudo-profundity can get around the fundamental contradiction (it’s certainly not a paradox since it’s just wrong).
The Wikipedia entry on Zimzum muddies the situation even further: “This paradox is strengthened by reference to the closely related doctrine of divine simplicity, which holds that God is absolutely simple, containing no element of form or structure whatsoever. This gives rise to two difficulties. Firstly, according to this doctrine, it is impossible for God to shrink or expand (physically or metaphorically) – an obvious contradiction to the above. Secondly, according to this doctrine, if God’s creative will is present, then He must be present in total – whereas the Zimzum, on the other hand, results in, and requires, a ‘partial Presence’ as above.
“The paradox has an additional aspect, in that the Zimzum results in a perception of the world being imperfect despite God’s omniperfect Presence being everywhere. As a result, some Kabbalists saw the Zimzum as a cosmic illusion.”
So now the whole thing is an ILLUSION! Well that’s one way out of the problem. Jehovah has become rather like Maya of Hinduism: a cosmic illusionist intent on deceiving us. But what’s the point of this illusion? Why does a perfect being have to resort to playing mind tricks (on himself!)?
Kabalah, more and more, looks like Jewish Hinduism. It even has the concept of reincarnation. Who would have thought that the Jews and Indians had so much in common?! It has been said that Ein Sof is the impersonal part of God and that this is reminiscent of the Buddhist Nirvana. In fact, Nirvana looks much more like Ein given that Nirvana is typically described as Nothingness, the Void, the “Extinguishing”, the “blowing out”. So perhaps Kabbalists are really Jewish Buddhists who are willing to contemplate a more personalised God than the abstract Nirvana of Buddhism.
******
Zimzum is connected to the concept of exile and alienation from God. It is a place of flaws and imperfection. The task of humanity is to repair the problems of the world to allow reconciliation and union with God. The Jews claim that this is done by obeying endless rules and commandments (over six hundred of them!) Judaism is a rule-book religion for autistics and victims of obsessive compulsive disorder. It has absolutely nothing to do with perfection. It’s about slavish, mindless obedience.
Hear this: no slave will ever attain the kingdom of God. No one who obeys mindless commandments will ever be spiritually enlightened.

There are two elements in Islamic cosmology: Allah and his Creation. Allah originally created one Earth, but after the Fall, he created six copies and arranged them all on top of one another like a stack of plates. Humanity is on the top Earth, and Satan inhabits the bottom one, which makes it Hell. Presumably the other Earths are for different grades of sinners, the most evil being closest to Satan.
The Koran, the so-called Word of God, the Creator of the Universe, completely fails to describe the universe that science has uncovered. Do scientists know more than “God”? If not, the Koran cannot be God’s Word and science has definitively refuted Islam. This point cannot be emphasized enough. The Koran is supposedly authored by none other than the eternal being that personally designed Creation. It’s IMPOSSIBLE for anyone to know more about the universe than the God who designed it. Therefore, the Koran ought to describe stars, planets, moons, solar systems, galaxies, black holes, dark energy, dark matter, and all possible stellar and galactic objects. If the Koran is the Word of God then it ought to present the Designer’s Design. Why is there no mention of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, for example? Science discovered these, so why didn’t the Koran know about them?
How can scientists know more about the universe than Allah? The Koran is hoist with its own petard. It claimed to be the Word of God, so it should have revealed things that no human being could ever have known or suspected. But the opposite is true. Scientists had to explain to Allah his own design because he clearly had no knowledge of what he did. Compared with scientists, he’s an ignoramus. There’s no excuse for the Koran to be wrong. God wrote it and he allegedly knows everything. He’s eternal. His work never dates. The Koran, according to its believers, is true then, now and forever – by definition. But it’s not. It’s wrong. It’s false. The Koran has been refuted. Islam is a corpse and only superstitious fools cling to it.
Any book that claims to be divine and then is proved to be littered with catastrophic errors is a Book of Lies composed by a false prophet who sought to deceive men. Mohammed’s blatant lies have been revealed unequivocally by science. Either science is false or the Koran is. There can be no question that science is right. The evidence is unarguable.
Mohammed is called “The Seal of the Prophets” by Muslims i.e. he is the last prophet of Allah and anyone who says there’s any chance of any new divine revelations is a diabolical heretic. Therefore, the Koran is the final word from Allah, which means that he should have made it absolutely future-proof, incapable of being refuted by the advance of science. All he had to do was reveal his divine design plan and then no one could ever possibly doubt Allah. Why doesn’t the Koran show scientists where they have gone wrong with the currently irreconcilable quantum and relativity theories? Why doesn’t the Koran provide the Grand Unified Theory of Everything it if it is indeed Allah’s final word to his Creation?
Why was the Koran left “incomplete” (to be charitable!)? Why was Mohammed the last prophet if the Koran was not in fact the final statement of God? If Mohammed was the last of the line of chosen prophets of God’s revelation then the Koran must be INFALLIBLE and DEFINITIVE. Yet we see that it has been demolished in every regard by modern science.
Some Muslims might say that it’s a religious book rather than a scientific book. So, Allah is ignorant of science, is he, or he thinks we are? Why should the Koran have ignored science, mathematics and philosophy if it was the Word of God? Surely God isn’t afraid of stating scientific, mathematical and philosophical truths? So where are they? Nowhere to be found in the Koran, that’s for sure.
Allah, with his foreknowledge of all things, must have known that science would show the Koran to be false, so why didn’t he make it impossible for future science to discredit it? Why isn’t the Koran the only book that scientists, mathematicians and philosophers ever need to consult because it literally explains everything flawlessly? Why is it that the only people who accept the Koran are ill-educated, superstitious “believers” entirely ignorant of mathematics, science and philosophy? What “God” would prefer to write a book for these credulous, foolish people rather than for smart people? The Koran is not only utterly false, it’s utterly dumb. It has ZERO intellectual content. That is a simple and irrefutable statement of fact. Pick up any modern book on mathematics, science or philosophy and it will contain infinitely more knowledge and learning than the Koran.
We say to all followers of the Koran, “Can you put your hand on your heart and say that the Koran is superior to quantum theory or relativity theory? Do you even have the vaguest idea of what science actually says, or is it way past your ability range? Is the Koran the right level for you i.e. a dumbed down, lowest common denominator book for the non-educated and superstitious? Why wasn’t the Koran written for an intelligent audience? How can the Koran NOT be the smartest book on earth if it was truly written by God? If humans can write smarter books than God then God manifestly IS NOT God. Unlike anything in the Koran, THAT is a fact.
All Muslims must, if they are rational, abandon their religion in the face of the blunt scientific and logical facts. But we know they never will. Muslims have no interest at all in the truth. They will go on forever believing the proven lies of the Koran.
Here is what a renowned twentieth century Muslim “scholar” said: “Will we reject the speech of Allah and the speech of His Messenger due to the ignorance of the Europeans and others along with them, declaring that the more they increase their knowledge of the universe, the more they increase in their ignorance of it? Allah the Most Great has spoken the truth when He said: ‘And of knowledge, you (mankind) have been given only a little.’ (Al-Allamah Muhammad Nasir ud-Deen Al-Albani.)
Well, if this person had a single honest bone in his body he would have called for the rejection of “Allah” and his “Messenger”. Surely neither God nor his prophet can be a liar, and yet the Koran is demonstrably full of lies, as the “Europeans” have shown beyond any conceivable doubt. This “scholar” can’t dare to admit the truth because it would mean the complete destruction of his entire belief system and personal identity. There is NOTHING that could make such a person stop believing. Every part of him is invested in the “truth” of Islam, and such people are therefore entirely alienated from the authentic, real truth. A “truth” that cannot be doubted for religious reasons is no truth at all. It’s an outright lie.
The Islamic “scholar” makes no attempt to intellectually refute Western ideas: he simply states that the Koran and Mohammed must be right. What kind of scholar is that? He’s not a scholar at all, just a deranged fanatic incapable of admitting his error. His starting point is that it’s a proven fact that Allah is the author of the Koran, a holy book transmitted to humanity via the Prophet Mohammed. Never once does he doubt this, even though there’s not one shred of evidence that Mohammed spoke for anyone other than himself. A “scholar” is a learned person who studies the facts and evidence and reaches rational conclusions. A scholar isn’t a believer who does nothing but put forward uncritical statements supporting his own beliefs. Are you such a person too? Is challenging the Koran simply too much for you because you’re weak, stupid and cowardly?
Remember, something like 86% of the human race reject the Koran. If you are a Muslim, you’re in a tiny minority. Have you never wondered why only those brought up under Islam are Muslims, while those free of Islamic brainwashing completely reject the Koran? If the Koran is so brilliant, why does the vast majority of humanity repudiate it? Why are you at such odds with the majority of the human race? Are you an irrational Islamic extremist, incapable of honestly seeing the Koran’s flaws?
If Allah is loving, compassionate, merciful, perfect and all-knowing, why did he communicate his message so badly that most human beings can’t take it seriously, thus, according to Islam, sentencing all the unbelievers to eternal Hell? Why did he choose an illiterate 7th century Arab to communicate the divine message? It makes no sense at all. Why didn’t he simply announce the truth to all of humanity and leave some golden books proclaiming the infallible scientific, mathematical and philosophical truths of the Cosmic Designer?
Isn’t the Koran supposed to be something that no one can doubt because it’s so perfect? So why do all non-Muslims doubt it? Is the blame to be placed on the audience rather than on the messenger and the being who composed the message? If the message and messenger are flawed, whose fault is that? How can God be incapable of communicating a coherent, persuasive message? It’s IMPOSSIBLE. The fact that anyone at all can find the Koran less than credible guarantees that it’s NOT the work of God. No genuine God-given message could be doubted. Any message that can be doubted ergo does not originate with God, but with a fraud and a liar.
The cosmological model of the Koran is that of 7th century Arabia i.e. exactly as you would expect from a man-made “revelation”. It’s ignorant, retarded and infantile, reflecting a complete absence of scientific knowledge. Primitive tribesmen can’t be blamed for being scientifically illiterate, but anyone asserting that he is the mouthpiece of God himself cannot under any circumstances tell untruths if he is the authentic messenger of God. The messenger’s personal ignorance is not an issue because he is merely passing on a message, but the ignorance of God is another matter entirely.
If Allah designed the universe, his description of it via Mohammed ought to be unimpeachable and yet it is silly nonsense from beginning to end. If Muslims do not accept that the Koran is false and Mohammed shown to be a false prophet then they are declaring science to be wrong. That makes them irrational, supremely dangerous and doomed to the slow death of ignorance. They will make themselves extinct with their stupidity, but they might drag the rest of us down with them.
There is no more disturbing phenomenon in our world than that proven facts of science are rejected in favour of disproven statements by ancient prophets of deserts and caves who heard “voices” and had “visions”. How can any human being reject reason and turn instead to unreason? It’s MADNESS. And who can doubt that perhaps 95% of the human race are actually insane? What is insanity if not the rejection of reason in preference for a baseless but comforting fantasy that has actually been proved false? How can the madness be overcome if the madmen have no interest whatever in reason, facts, evidence or knowledge?
Why are billions of Abrahamists not regarded as retarded or insane? Well, it’s precisely because there are billions of them. In the kingdom of the mad, the sane are the crazy ones. Once madness, superstition, faith and irrationality are embedded in society it takes the strongest possible intervention to remove them. There’s no government on earth with the guts to try. They all pander to the religious extremists who madly cling to their mad beliefs.
According to the Koran, the universe is very small: just the Earth and the surrounding “heavens”. By itself, the Hubble Telescope has disproved the Koran. Why don’t Muslims accept the facts and turn to the truth for once?
After all, don’t they claim to be “people of the truth”?
“He it is Who hath sent His messenger with the guidance and the religion of truth, that He may cause it to prevail over all religions. And Allah sufficeth as a Witness.” (Koran 48:28)
The Koran has to be so convincing that it prevails “over all religions”, and it has Allah himself as a “Witness” – yet science has proved it false in every way.
The Koran declares the existence of seven heavens, stacked one above the other (71:15-16): “See you not how Allah has created the seven heavens one above another, and made the moon a light in their midst, and made the Sun a Lamp?”
Note that the moon is described as a light and the Sun a Lamp. This means that both are regarded as sources of light, but the moon is a lesser light.
The Koran asserts that the earth is flat! (Koran 15:19): “And the earth We have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon mountains firm and immovable; and produced therein all kinds of things in due balance.”
Koran 20:53 “He Who has, made for you the earth like a carpet spread out; has enabled you to go about therein by roads (and channels); and has sent down water from the sky.”
According to the “Holy” Koran (65:12), there are seven earths, matching the seven heavens (!): “It is Allah who has created seven heavens, and earths as many. [His] command descends among them so you may know that Allah is over all things competent and that Allah has encompassed all things in knowledge.”
So, Islamic cosmology consists of seven flat earths (discs), with ours at the top. The stack of flat earths is surrounded by the seven solid concentric “semi-domes” of the heavens (semi-domes because the Earth is flat, not spherical (!)).
All of the celestial objects – sun, moon, stars and planets – are located in the innermost semi-dome and follow semi-circular paths (!). To reiterate, they don’t need to follow circular paths because the earth is flat (!). (Planets, of course, actually follow elliptical orbits, not that the Koran would ever know.)
When we can’t see them, the celestial objects are hiding (er, resting) underneath the horizon, and awaiting Allah’s permission (!) to return the following day or night.

The better a soul is, the higher the Heaven to which it is assigned. Our sky is the lowest Heaven and the top is Paradise, where Allah lives (natch!), or rather transcends.
The first heaven is of pure silver and is the abode of Adam and Eve.
The second heaven is pure gold and is the abode of John the Baptist and Jesus.
The third heaven is of pearl and is the abode of Joseph.
The fourth heaven is of white gold and is the abode of Enoch.
Aaron, brother of Moses, lives in the fifth heaven.
The sixth heaven, of ruby, is where Moses resides.
The seventh heaven is made of divine light, and Abraham resides there.
To reach the seventh heaven is the ultimate bliss. Above it is Allah himself.
The seven Earths and seven Heavens are separated by distances that take five hundred years to traverse (we’re not told by what mode of transport: galactic camels perhaps). The gaps are larger at the top and bottom, separating Satan and Allah respectively from the nearest Earth or Heaven.
It was recognised that underpinning this stack of worlds and heavens might prove difficult and Muslim “scientists” continue to offer solutions to this great cosmic mystery.
As with Milton’s cosmology, Allah is at the highest point of the universe, and Satan at the lowest, as far from Allah as it’s possible to be.
******
Note that Mohammed simply stole the heavenly scheme of Jewish mystics.
According to Kabbalah, the Seven Heavens are:
1) Shamayim: The first Heaven, closest to Earth and governed by the Archangel Gabriel. It’s the abode of Adam and Eve.
2) Raquie: Controlled by Zachariel and Raphael. Rather oddly, the fallen angels are said to be imprisoned here, which makes it seem more like Hell than Heaven.
3) Shehaqim: This is the home of the Garden of Eden and the Tree of Life, and is where manna, the holy food of angels, is produced. Strangely, the Second Book of Enoch asserts states that both Paradise and Hell are in this heaven, with Hell being “on the northern side.”
4) Machen: The Archangel Michael governs this heaven. The heavenly Jerusalem is located here, and the Holy Temple of Jerusalem, and the Holy Altar.
5) Machon: This Heaven is, rather oddly, controlled by Samael, usually associated with the Devil and Hell.
6) Zebul: The sixth Heaven, governed by Sachiel.
7) Araboth: The seventh Heaven, the highest and holiest of the Heavens which houses the Throne of Glory, attended by the Seven Archangels. God himself dwells here, together with the highest angels, the Seraphim and Cherubim. Underneath the throne is the abode of all human souls yet to be born. (This of course implies that souls are pre-existent rather than created specifically for individual human beings.)
Virtually all Islamic thinking, supposedly the expression of Allah, is ripped off from assorted ancient sources (and often inaccurately). Mohammed was born and raised in the trading town of Mecca, which attracted many pagans coming to see the Kaaba to worship their various pagan gods. Mohammed would have been immersed in religious speculation, particularly Jewish, Christian, Gnostic, Neoplatonic, Hermetic, Manichean, Zoroastrian, Roman and Arab paganism. Being illiterate, Mohammed couldn’t study any of these religions, hence would have had a superficial grasp of their teachings. He had to remember everything he heard. This hotchpotch of religious ideas poured out in the regular “visions” he experienced as a middle-aged man. His central conception of Islam was mostly framed by Jewish monotheism, which, to Mohammed, offered a nice, clear, simplification of the endless religious confusion with which he was surrounded. His only real contribution to religion was to give Judaism an Arab makeover. Instead of Judaism based on Abraham and Isaac, he created “Islam” based on Abraham and Ishmael, and instead of concentrating on the history of the Jews, he prattled on a great deal about what Allah wanted and expected from Arabs living in the desert.
It’s astonishing that anyone other than Arabs could ever have taken Islam seriously. Like most religious people, non-Arab Muslims have either never actually read the Koran, or been so brainwashed they don’t care what it says.
The “Paradise” promised by Islam is the most simple appeal to self-indulgence of any religion ever. It’s a physical place where every wish is immediately fulfilled just by the asking of it asked. The heaven dwellers wear costly, luxury garments (the ultimate designer labels!) and enjoy exquisite banquets where they recline like Roman emperors on couches inlaid with gold and precious stones. Everyone is surrounded by their parents, wives, and children.
Even the lowest level of heaven is one hundred times better than the greatest life on earth. The seventh level of heaven, the highest heaven, offers direct sight of Allah and here anything is possible. Palaces of solid gold are built by angels for the most deserving and, of course, male martyrs get their own celestial harem of 72 beautiful virgins (female martyrs don’t seem to be offered the same deal (!)).
One has to wonder at the sheer materialism and lack of spirituality of the Muslims. Theirs is an extremely primitive belief system that makes the crudest psychological pitch of all – “Be a good Muslim, obey everything Allah (or Mohammed, to be more accurate) says, and every dream will come true for you. You will get everything you ever wanted: the best food, the finest clothes, palatial homes of pure gold and diamond, and the most beautiful sexual partners possible. Also, you will be surrounded by family and friends.”
What’s not to like? Islam is a “genie” ideology. You rub a lamp, a genie (Allah) appears and grants you not just three wishes, but as many as you want. This is the ultimate lottery win. That’s why all those hundreds of millions of superstitious, irrational Muslims are on their knees all the time. Wouldn’t you be if you had been brainwashed into thinking that the ultimate PRIZE – everything you ever wanted – was waiting for you?
But what has Islam got to do with goodness or spirituality? Nothing at all! It’s pure greedy, selfish materialism: the worship of sensuality.
Islam is an infantile religion that has crude appeal for primitive, badly-educated people dreaming of a better life. The Islamic heaven is not all that different from the Viking Valhalla where the warriors fought, feasted and fucked endlessly. The Jihadists – the Islamic fighters – expect to spend eternity feeding and fucking, living in gold palaces and driving gold supercars with the “Allah” badge rather than “BMW”.

One night, the prophet Mohammed was sleeping in Mecca. The Angel Gabriel visited him and took him on a night journey to Jerusalem (as you do) where he met Abraham, Moses and Jesus and led them in prayer (thus proving that he was the most important of the prophets). Afterwards, Gabriel led Mohammed upwards through the seven Heavens to see Allah.
Mohammed said of the highest Heaven: “I saw there an angel, the most gigantic of all created beings. It had 70,000 heads, each head had 70,000 faces, each face had 70,000 mouths, each mouth had 70,000 tongues, and each tongue spoke 70,000 languages; all were employed in singing God’s praises.”
And instead of being two-faced like most Muslims, he had 70,000 faces to choose from. Because Mohammed personally visited Jerusalem and ascended from the Temple Mount to Paradise, Jerusalem is the third most special site to Muslims (after Mecca and Medina), and hence the incredible violence that has surrounded that benighted city ever since! Jerusalem, sacred to all Jews, Christians and Muslims, is the poster boy of Abrahamism – full of nothing but hatred, bitterness, violence, division and madness. Jerusalem is to all intents and purposes the Devil’s capital – Pandemonium. According to Dante, Hell is directly below Jerusalem, which sounds exactly right.
******
If you’re wondering how Mohammed travelled to the seventh heaven, it was on an animal which Gabriel brought with him for the purpose. It was called Al Borak and it had the face of a man but a horse’s cheeks and body, the wings of an eagle, and spoke with the voice of a man. Ah, you thought he used a spaceship, didn’t you?
When Mohammed placed his foot on a stone to mount his strange steed for his heavenly ascent, the stone insisted on rising with Al Borak. Mohammed was forced to put his hand on the stone and forbid it from following him (you see, even the rocks are good Muslims!). It dutifully remained suspended in mid-air and any True Believer may behold it to this day (allegedly).
Why don’t we line up all Muslims and discover which ones can see it and which can’t? Then we’ll know who are the true believers, right?

Mohammed is Arab for “the praised one”. His original name was either Kotham or Halabi. His chosen new name tells you pretty much all you need to know about him. Legend had it that his coffin was suspended in mid-air at Medina without any trace of support…just like his teachings in fact which are suspended in mid-air without any trace of rational support.

Remember if you disagree with any of this, you’ll burn in hellfire forever by order of Allah!! You have been duly warned.

God:
According to Abrahamism, God is external to the universe and he made it out of nothing. God is a perfect, fully conscious being and has existed eternally.
According to Illuminism, God IS the universe and he creates himself using his own substance. He is not the Creator God who creates the universe out of nothing; rather he is the Self-Creating God who makes himself out of the universe. The universe is eternal but it goes through cyclical ages. At the start of each cycle, the universe is pure mind. It is unconscious and it is nothing but sheer potential imbued with Will to Power. This Will cannot be sated until it has acquired all power i.e. until it has become God. So it embarks on a process to achieve the omega point of power. Once achieved, the Will cannot become pure being since its inherent nature is to always strive for an increase in power. It is always becoming, it never IS – except for one moment of ecstasy when it has achieved its purpose. And then it must start all over again.
The Abrahamists believe that eternity consists of human and angelic souls simply staring at God and contemplating his perfection. That’s all…forever. The Abrahamist God is a Creator, not an Evolutionist. The Illuminist God is an Evolutionist, not a Creator. He himself is the final product of Evolution. He is the universe that has evolved the means to turn all of its potential into actualisation.
To understand the Illuminist God one need only look at a human baby at 25 days old and later as an adult at 25 years old. Now imagine what would happen if this adult lived for another 250 billion years. A human being cannot accomplish that, but the universe itself can. The life of the cosmos is the life of a human but on an enormously grander canvas. As above, so below.
Illuminism teaches that the universe is, in essence, the eternal seeking of perfection. When it’s attained, that’s the signal for the process to begin again, in a new guise, in a new play with a new cast of characters but based on the same template as before. The universe can never stop. It must keep moving.
Motion is what the universe really is. It cannot stop because motion is inherent in it. The universe is the ultimate perpetual motion machine. If the machine should ever stop it would mean the end of existence itself – but existence cannot end. The First law of thermodynamics is about the permanence of existence. The Second Law of Thermodynamic is thought to exclude the possibility of perpetual motion machines, but the Second Law is overridden on the cosmological scale by a factor that physicists are only starting to contemplate: DARK ENERGY. Dark energy defines the entirety of physical existence. Why? Because it’s mind. It’s the mathematical march of Leibnizian monads.

Aesthetics:
The Ancient and Medieval celestial models of stars and planets embedded like gleaming jewels in rotating orbs made of crystalline quintessence are enormously more aesthetically pleasing than modern cosmology. They naturally lend themselves to belief in a God who creates and then tends his universe. The spherical universe becomes the ultimate precious stone – God’s greatest treasure upon which he lavishes his love. Just think of it: an enormous, illuminated clear globe, studded with glistening jewels, suspended in space. It’s hard to think of anything more beautiful. And that’s why it endured so long despite being utterly false. Beauty often trumps truth.
Also, the finite is considered truer than the infinite. Infinity overwhelms and frightens the human mind. A vast but finite sphere is, on the other hand, beautiful, reassuring and proof of the existence of a loving God.
Prior to the modern age of science, mainstream religion made sense. It was understandable that virtually everyone believed in God. There was no good reason not to. Infinity killed God.Any contemporary God, to be plausible, must be a God of infinity and make total sense in relation to infinity.
The Illuminati were the central force promoting the message of infinity. Illuminism revolves entirely around infinity and zero (which are the inverse of one another). Only Illuminism makes the God of infinity comprehensible. Illuminism is the only credible religion, and it has only one credible rival: scientific materialism. It’s one or the other, and everything else is nonsense.

The Disproof of Abrahamism:
ABRAHAMISM was definitively refuted 1576 CE by an Illuminatus astronomer in England. Since then, it has been impossible for any rational person to be an Abrahamist. Extraordinarily, virtually no one in today’s world knows of the event or person that killed Abrahamism. Even worse, it wouldn’t matter to the Abrahamists anyway because they are irrationalists.
Before we get to 1576, the year that should have changed the world once and for all, it’s necessary to examine why it didn’t. What are the forces that stand in the way of truth?
Abrahamism takes pride of place in the war against truth. To be an Abrahamist means to be a person who, when faced with the truths of science and reason or the “truths” of revelation and faith, chooses the latter. To be on the side of revelation and faith MEANS that you do not accept the validity of facts, evidence, reason, logic or knowledge. You do not accept these as criteria of truth. You DO accept anything in a holy text, no matter how far-fetched. The God of the Universe born in a stable to a Jewish Virgin 2,000 years ago? NO PROBLEM! Once you are prepared to accept that proposition, is there ANY proposition you wouldn’t accept? What possible criterion could you have for rejecting anything else claimed as divine revelation?
Christian writer G.K. Chesterton famously said, “When people stop believing in God, they don’t believe in nothing – they believe in anything.” This statement is 180 degrees round the wrong way, of course. Once you believe in the Abrahamist God, that’s when you have irrevocably demonstrated that you are prepared to believe in anything.
This point cannot be stressed enough. If an ancient book written by a bearded prophet, purportedly at the instigation of God, says that the Earth is the centre of the universe, and scientific observation on the contrary shows that Earth is a planet revolving around the Sun and that the Sun is simply one of an innumerable numbers of stars, then an Abrahamist will conclude that science is wrong and revelation right. In other words, Abrahamists effectively declare all of science to be wrong since if science can’t be accepted in this context why should it be accepted in any context?
Why have so few Muslim scientists won Nobel Prizes? It’s because “Islamic science” is a contradiction in terms. All Muslim scientists believe in the Koran and Islamic science is permissible only to the extent that it confirms the teachings of the Koran. If it doesn’t then science must be wrong. With such an attitude, it’s IMPOSSIBLE for Muslims to be good scientists.
Most Western scientists are atheists, agnostics or deists (as opposed to theists i.e. they believe in an impersonal God that doesn’t interfere in the world). That makes sense. It makes no sense at all for any scientist to believe in revelation – the antithesis of the scientific method.
Most people in the world engage in dishonest doublethink: they simultaneously agree with science and revelation. The manoeuvre they perform is to say that the Holy Books are allegorical rather than literal whenever science definitively contradicts Scripture (e.g. concerning the age of the earth, which scientists can show is billions of years old while Christians say it’s only a few thousand years old), but otherwise revelation is literally right.
This is an absurd approach to religion. It’s the “God of the Gaps” stance, trying to fit God into the areas where science hasn’t yet reached. But if science’s domain keeps expanding, God’s must keep shrinking. One day there will be nothing left. God will be dead by default.
In the absence of facts, evidence, logic and reason, how can anything in Holy Books be deemed factual or merely invented to promote an allegorical spiritual message? What criteria would be used to separate literal truths from allegorical truths? What is the methodology? If none exists then why shouldn’t it be concluded that ALL of revelation is pure nonsense from beginning to end? The case could not be clearer cut with Islam. Either every word of the Koran is true and has come directly from God, or every word is false and comes from an insane person or deliberate deceiver called Mohammed. There’s no reason to conclude that some of the Koran comes from God and some from Mohammed. It’s all or nothing. It’s all bullshit or all true – which is why Muslims reject evolution and science. If the Koran is true, science and evolution must be false since they contradict the Koran.
Abrahamist Fundamentalists refuse to play the “God of the Gaps” game and insist on the literal truth of divine revelation. Thus they deny Darwinism and they deny that the Earth isn’t the centre of the universe. They must therefore conclude that the Earth is stationary and the Sun moves around our planet, just as it says in the Bible. Can such people have any place in the 21st century? Should they be allowed to have children and poison their children’s minds with this junk?
Isn’t it time the dishonest, evasive leaders of nations were compelled to declare the truth i.e. to say whether science always trumps revelation or vice verse, or whether holy books are literal or allegorical? The State MUST decide on these fundamental issues and then shape the education system accordingly. The situation we have in schools at the moment is preposterous. You can have a class in religious education telling you that the Bible is true and you should base your life on it, followed by biology class on evolution, which, you realise soon enough, is totally at odds with what you just studied in religious class. What kind of education system deliberately and systematically teaches you incompatible “truths”? Is it being proposed that the best way to make students more intelligent is to tell them two ways of thinking – one where they dismiss reason and accept revelation, and the other where they dismiss revelation and accept reason? Doesn’t that lead to hopeless muddle, stupidity, craziness and both scientific and religious illiteracy?
Governments and schools subscribe to a mad education system for one reason alone: to avoid offending religions. Well, it’s time to start offending them. Education must be about reason, logic, learning, knowledge and questioning. Education must never be about faith. Faith is, frankly, anti-educational and should be condemned by all governments. It simply has no place in the modern world. Humanity will never be smart while it explicitly rejects the tenets of reason. If revelation contradicts science then it is ALWAYS revelation that is wrong. That should be the cornerstone of the education system. Children should be taught from the outset that Abrahamism is a belief-system that is factually false scientifically and of highly dubious morality. They should be taught to prize reason and logic, and thus we might start producing clever children rather than legions of religious retards.
Governments should bring the phoney war to an end. It’s time to declare faith and revelation unacceptable. It’s time to defend and promote the values of the Enlightenment. The average person will never be enlightened until he receives an enlightened education. We already know where the rejection of Enlightenment values leads – Islamic education which churns out militant armies of extremely stupid and fanatical people.
It’s a simple observational fact that Islamic nations are backward in relation to Western nations, and would have nothing without their oil (the extraction of which is managed by Westerners, naturally). Why is that? Are Muslims genetically inferior to Westerners? Are they born stupid? Or is it that the Koran destroys intelligence? In fact, that’s the Koran’s precise purpose: to wage perpetual war against reason on behalf of absolute, mindless, slavish obedience to Allah. Islam means “submission”. Imagine if it meant “reason” – then we would have a radically different world, and Muslims would be the cleverest people on Earth, promoting reason with everything they do.
Islam, a religion of deserts and caves, was highly successful 1,400 years ago when the world was primitive, most people were illiterate and fanatical beliefs conferred great power on Islamic armies, allowing them to conquer many nations. Today, all of those factors that worked so well in Islam’s favour gave gone. All that’s left is the brainwashing machine itself, still churning out enormous numbers of Muslims and shovelling them into the Hell of total stupidity. There is absolutely no question that Islam has already died. It has nothing to offer the world and survives only because of generational brainwashing. If one generation escaped the brainwashing machine, Islam would never be heard from ever again.
There is nothing more important than the books you read when you are a child, and there are three books that ought to be on the banned list if we wish to have a well-educated human race. Those three books are the most corrupting and dangerous ever written, and also the most popular: the Torah, Bible and Koran, the most evil books ever produced. The amount of damage those three books have done to humanity is beyond measure.
It’s one of the most sobering facts of all time that Plato’s great works were written over 400 years before the Christian gospels. If you read them side by side, you would assume it was the other way around. In fact, most people alive today can’t grasp the work of Plato, so advanced and monumental was it.
The ancient Greeks sometimes seem like an alien species that visited the Earth, tried to help the dumb Earthlings and then buggered off in despair. The ancient Greeks were staggeringly far ahead of the Jews. Virtually all of the major truths of existence were more or less resolved by the Greeks. Everything since has merely been a refining of their ideas, a tidying up of the details. Yet how many people in the West have ever read the pre-Socratic philosophers, or Plato and Aristotle, or the Stoics and Neoplatonists? Instead, they are all disturbingly familiar with the extermination tales of the ancient Jews, the infantile, bullshit parables of Christianity and the “get on your knees and submit” mantras of the Muslims.
What’s wrong with humanity? Why have we allowed this to happen to us? We must return to the Greeks. We must start again, using their example rather than the lunacy of Abrahamism. Had we maintained a pagan rather than Abrahamist culture, we would be at least 1,000 years more advanced than we currently are. Yes, Abrahamism has cost us a millennium and more. Instead of surging forward mathematically, philosophically and scientifically, humanity chose to wage wars over circumcision, to exterminate infidels, have crusades, inquisitions, witch burnings, elaborate debates over “heresy” etc. What was it all for? A complete and utter waste of time! Abrahamism is the worst curse humanity has had to endure. It has been a disaster from beginning to end, and, at root, it has never been anything but the exploration of the utterly perverse Jewish psyche.
Just look at any Orthodox Jew in the modern world – with their silly clothes, silly hair, pieces of string dangling from their trousers and their irrational fear of switching on lights on the “Sabbath” – and you can instantly tell that you are observing mental illness transformed into a racial code of “normality”. How do you legitimise and promote psychic disease? – you turn it into a religion with traditions and customs. The Jews in particular and the Abrahamists in general aren’t in need of God but of a psychiatrist.

The Heliocentric System:
“Heliocentrism is false and contrary to Scripture.” –The Catholic Inquisition
Many people think that Abrahamism rationally died when the old geocentric cosmologies of Aristotle and Ptolemy were replaced by the Copernican heliocentric cosmology (ultimately derived from Pythagoras). While it was certainly true that the heliocentric system fatally contradicted the “infallible”, God-given holy texts of Abrahamism, if these texts hadn’t been so dogmatic, no great damage need have been done by the move from a geocentric to a heliocentric conception of Creation. Indeed, arguably, the latter is much more logical.
In the geocentric model, as viewed from a religious perspective, there seems to be a rather serious theological problem. In Dante’s geocentric model, none other than Satan in Hell is at the centre of Creation! The focus of the entire cosmos is PURE EVIL. The crystal spheres revolve around a Satanic core. It’s almost as though Creation is designed for the sake of Hell and Satan. (Which, of course, is what the ancient Gnostics always maintained – they directly equated Jehovah and Satan.) Where is God in the geocentric picture? – on the fringe of Creation; a divine irrelevance, far from the action.
What does the heliocentric cosmology achieve? It allows God, not Satan, to be placed at the centre of the universe. It makes God the centre of the circle, not its circumference. God is moved to the heart of everything. He is the origin, the Genesis Point, the Alpha, the Aleph. And isn’t that exactly where he’s supposed to be? That’s where Pythagoras put him and that’s exactly where he belongs, and where he remains in Illuminism. Of course, Pythagoras didn’t actually put the Sun at the cosmic centre. Instead, he placed the “Central Fire” there, a much more mystical conception, much more in keeping with the mental rather than physical origin of the material world.
By placing God at the centre of the sun, Heliocentrism transforms him into the “Sun God” of so many religions, radiating love, warmth, light and life to the world. What place could be more natural for God? As for Satan, Heliocentrism despatches him to the outer darkness. Hell is placed beyond Creation. It is outside the universe, a place of infinite spaces and eternal, devastating loneliness. It represents total alienation from God. The damned are permanently separated from their Creator and their regret is infinite. They are as far as it’s possible to get from the divine light. Heliocentrism makes perfect theological sense. So, no, it wasn’t the heliocentric universe that made the Abrahamist God an impossibility. It was something quite different – it was INFINITY.
******
The honour for killing Abrahamism goes to the English Illuminatus Thomas Digges (1546-1595), a mathematician and astronomer. In 1576, he was the first to write in English about the Copernican system, and he used the opportunity to deliver the fatal blow to Abrahamism.
In the geocentric cosmology, the stars in the sky belonged to the sphere of “fixed stars” i.e. all stars were fixed in place within a crystal shell positioned below the Primum Mobile. When the shell of fixed stars moved, all the stars obviously moved with it. Earth didn’t move – the stars did. Of course in reality it’s the Earth that moves and the stars appear stationary because they’re so far away (in reality, the stars are being moved as a consequence of the expanding universe). The geocentric fixed stars were all the same distance from the motionless Earth that sat at the centre of the cosmic sphere. Ptolemy identified 1,022 fixed stars grouped into 48 constellations.
What Thomas Digges did that was so revolutionary was to discard the fixed shell of immovable stars and declare that there were in fact infinitely many stars located at all sorts of distances from the Earth. With this one devastating blow, he killed the notion of a beautiful, spherical CREATION centred on Earth. There’s no physical centre in an infinite system, there’s no cosmic sphere and there doesn’t even seem to be any room for God.
While the crystal spheres survived – whether or not the Earth was at the centre – the universe could be understood rationally as a majestic and intelligently designed Creation. But if infinite stars were spread across infinite space, the Primum Mobile was dead, the Empyrean (the abode of God) was dead, and the whole model of Creation was logically dead. All the pieces fell apart. How was motion imparted to the cosmos without the Primum Mobile and its “loving relationship” with the Empyrean?
At a stroke, everything changed. The scientific basis of the old cosmology, such as it was, simply collapsed. What would be the point in terms of Creation of infinite stars, with stars so far from us that they could never be detected by us under any circumstances? Clearly, if stars are so numerous and so distant that we will never observe them, they are not there for our benefit, hence “Creation” wasn’t for our benefit and wasn’t about us at all. So who was it for? Plainly, Adam and Eve were now sideshows rather than the main action. There might be infinite worlds out there and infinite Adam and Eves. Was there a Jesus Christ for every inhabited world? The Bible had been rendered irrelevant at a stroke. The God of Abraham was well and truly dead.
Infinity, not heliocentricity, killed the Biblical God. No rational person can be an Abrahamist when confronted by an infinitely large universe.
The universe is indeed infinitely big, and it must be understood that an infinite cosmos also contradicts the traditional Big Bang model of scientific materialism, which is based on a finite cosmos almost like a kind of Creation (which is why many Catholic astronomers have no difficulty with the Big Bang). Because of zero and infinity – the two numbers that define the mental domain – the physical universe must be infinite too. The mathematics guarantees it.
An infinite universe only kills a Creator God (because Creation should of course be a finite exercise; a deliberately designed space like the old universe of crystal spheres). It does not kill an infinite God who IS the universe.
******
Thomas Digges was the assassin of all assassins. He was the man who killed God, and the blade he used was infinity.
When Digges’ father died when Digges was still a child (13), his guardian and mentor was none other than one of the leading English Illuminists – the famous John Dee of Rosicrucian fame.
Digges attempted to determine the parallax of the 1572 supernova observed by Tycho Brahe, and concluded it had to be beyond the orbit of the Moon. This contradicted the accepted view of the universe, according to which no movement or change could take place among the eternal fixed stars.
Digges wrote a tract called “A Perfit Description of the Caelestiall Orbes according to the most ancient doctrine of the Pythagoreans, lately revived by Copernicus and by Geometrical Demonstrations approved.” He was the first astronomer to state categorically that the universe contains infinitely many stars. Big Bang theory, on the other hand, implies that there’s a vast but finite number of stars.
There is a concept of the “observable universe” and most cosmologists restrict themselves to speaking of that alone. The non-observable universe is, by definition, not something of which we can have direct knowledge or information. Its properties can only be inferred.
The question of whether the universe contains an infinite number of stars is of enormous significance since it dictates how we interpret what happened at the Big Bang. If the Big Bang happened 13.7 billion years ago, and space has been expanding ever since, the implication is that the universe is finite, but getting relentlessly bigger. Therefore it contains a finite number of galaxies and stars that will grow further and further apart as time goes on. If, however, the Big Bang universe contains an infinite numbers of stars, it means that the conventional interpretation of the Big Bang is wrong.
