But he just hollers, and she just screams!
They just won a new car on a TV show.

Do you really think it's dead, though? If so, why?
This forum may be inactive (and it's been a long while since I've seen Jim comment here), but it doesn't mean that Thelema itself is dead.

It's dead if you see it dead. If you see it alive, if it flows through your nadis like a hippopotamus through a straw then it is very much alive.

I agree.
Perhaps he meant that Thelema is dying, in the sense that the amount of Thelemites is decreasing - and in that case, I would like to see proof for that, because it is quite difficult to know the religious philosophy of every man and every woman on the planet.

Hey, you guys see that new TV show Strange Angel? It's about Jack Parsons and Thelema. Of course, it's shit and has nothing to do with reality, but it was hilarious to see Crowley on CBS. Thelema is never born and never dies.

Middleman

Aw, this show Strange Angel had to turn Thelema into a sex thing. I guess self-unrealization is too boring for TV.

Takamba

It is a sex thing. Mistake not sex, for there is sex and sex.

Just look at the letters OTO

Brilliant!

"I am Sex, the creator of Man..."

Middleman

This Strange Angel show actually turned out to be pretty good. They show Crowley from behind in the finale, shooting heroin of course.

Middleman

Hey you guys gotta check out this season 2 of Strange Angel. Great portrayal of AC.

Hermitas

I’m kinda “in between” and don’t have access to some things, so I can’t watch.

What do you like about the portrayal?

Takamba

He's sexy.

*okay. I'm leaving now. Sorry.

Hermitas

Lol.

Do what thou wilt.

Previously:
Me: “I practice Thelema.”
Them: “What’s that?”

After Strange Angel:
Me: “I practice Thelema.”
Them: “Whoa! You’re in a sex cult?!”

The main proponent of the Law is a sociopathic murderer.

The show sucks.

Hermitas

Well...

****.

[sigh]
