THE MAKING OF A SATANIC MYTH
....That was the headline
carried across page 8 of The Independent
(Sunday ed. 12 Aug 90), a leading British newspaper.
The topic was that dealt
with by The Watcher #5, in which we
examined the spread of lunatic christian smear-mongering against Satanists,
from the USA to Britain and South Africa. In that article ("Anti-Satanist
hysteria spreading") we pointed out that christian fundamentalists,
and
those neurotics and worse claiming to have been sexually abused by
Satanists, to have witnessed blood sacrifices and demonic manifestations,
etc., were receiving support and superficial 'respectability' from
allies
in the tabloid press and police depts.
Although the anti-Satanist
lunacy pushed by the tabloids and the
christian crusaders has been taken seriously by social workers,
psychiatrists, et al., fortunately a responsible paper such as The
Independent has done a thorough job on the allegations.
The Independent backgrounds
the hysteria in the US and UK, and
exposes the origins which are apparently to be traced back to British
Columbia, Canada. Here in 1976 Michelle Smith, a 22 yr.
old who was under
the care of a psychiatrist after having miscarried, began to remember
the
long repressed events of her childhood. From the age of four
she had
suffered sexual, physical and emotional abuse at the hands of a satanic
coven, which included her mother. She witnessed blood rites,
including the
sacrifice of babies and the mutilation of animals.
Michelle and her therapist,
Lawrence Pazder, went to the Vatican
"to alert the church about the previously unheard of dangers to children
from Satanic cults worldwide." To warn the world they wrote Michelle
Remembers, published in the US in 1980 and in Britain the following
year.
Thus was born from a psychiatrist's
couch the anti-Satanist
hysteria which over the next decade was to spread throughout the USA,
and
which is now cropping up in the UK and SA, with fallout in NZ arising
occasionally in the form of teenage 'Death Metal' fans performing bloody
rites and christian bookstores stocked full of books on the Satanic
dangers
of yoga, acupuncture, eastern Mysticism, etc. ready and waiting
for the
hysteria to reach NZ shores.
The Independent relates that
in early August a conference on incest
was held at a London hospital, where a woman claimed "she had been
the
victim for 16 yrs. of ritual abuse by Satanists", and told delegates
"that
human foetuses were being killed and eaten by members of 'Satanic sex
rings.'"
Perhaps the most alarming
aspect that emerges from the anti-Satanic
hysteria is that the wild and whacky tales are taken seriously by people
in
responsible community positions.
The heavily-publicized incest
conference was co-organized by a
Harley St. psycho-therapist, Vera Diamond, who stated that several
children had been killed at Satanic rituals in Britain.
Psycho-therapist Norman Vaughton
said that there were an estimated
10,000 human sacrifices a year in the USA, most of them "foetuses that
have
been bred specially."
The Independent reports that
over the past two yrs. the British
public has been hearing increasing reports of 'Satanic ritual abuse'
from
social workers, therapists, and churches.
The paper states that having
investigated the claims it has found
that "nobody has produced evidence."
"There have been police investigations
across the US, in Canada,
the Netherlands, and now in Britain. They have produced no evidence,
no
bodies, no bones, no covens, no underground tunnels, no animal carcasses,
no blood-stains. Nothing. Just the occasional court case
where the
pretence of supernatural powers was used to obtain silence and submission."
Continues The Independent,
"our investigations have revealed that
the Satanic abuse myth originated in the US. It has been spread
largely in
fundamentalist christian circles, and it is now accepted as fact by
many
psychotherapists and police officers.
"The allegations began to
surface only after the publication of the
book Michelle Remembers."
The co-author, Dr Pazder,
now married to Michelle, began organizing
"Satanic cult crime" seminars across the US for therapists and the
police.
Panic began to spread. From 1984-1989, 100 people were charged
with ritual
sexual abuse. Of those approx. 50 were charged and half
were convicted of
child abuse. "No evidence of satanism was found in these cases."
"In other cases the allegations
were dismissed as the worst
outbreak of mass hysteria since the Salem witchhunt."
(A plot hatched by a military
chaplain against Dr Michael Aquino
and his wife Lilith, of the Temple of Set, resulted in the police officers
involved being disciplined, a shake-up of the SF police dept.
procedures,
and the total exoneration of the Aquinos, the doctor himself being
a
respected member of both the military and academe).
In establishing how the "Satanic
child abuse myth" spread from the
US to Britain, the article cites the work of Robert Hicks, an analyst
with
the criminal justice dept. in Virginia, who "blames 'a loose
network' of
therapists, fundamentalist christians, serving and ex-police officers
and
also the media for 'perpetuating the myth'".
He told The Independent,
"there were no such stories before the
publication of Michelle Remembers."
Dr Sherrill Mulbern, an anthropologist
from the Uni. of Paris, who
has studied self-declared Satanic abuse survivors, notes the interpretation
between therapists, patients, and the hysteria, which results in a
"paranoid reading of the data" by supposed 'experts.'
The article relates the story
of a woman who claimed to a C of E
vicar (with whom she now stays) that she had been initiated into a
satanic
coven when a six week old baby, married to Satan when 11; raped by
coven
members and by demons; and witness to blood sacrifices. Some
of the
happenings were conducted in a public park, but Satan made the coven
invisible (this explanation being sufficient to convince the vicar).
The Independent is to be
commended for producing a responsible
report debunking the "satanic abuse myth" (as it is referred to).
No doubt
the paper is now blacklisted by Christian zealots as being under Satanist
control.

THE HERESY OF THE LEFT HAND PATH
by R. Parker, Editor, "Exeat", England
One of the fundamental principles
of the LHP in general and
Satanism in particular is the desire to know - in the senses of
understanding and experience. This principle is expressed by
an attitude
of living, an attitude often evident in the personality of the individual
-
there is acceptance of challenges, a desire to explore or create but
above
all an instinct for excellence. The follower of the LHP is seldom
satisfied, a natural rebel who has an instinctive aversion to accepting
authority. He or she needs to find out by personal experience
rather than
by accepting something dogmatically. He or she wants and needs
to be a
leader rather than a follower.
Our societies, however, instead
of producing such strong, proud and
truly defiant and truly individual people, produce a conformist herd
- and
what is startling is that most of this herd is created and moulded
and
maintained for the most of this herd is created and moulded and maintained
for the most part not by compulsion but rather by ideas. It is
ideas which
keep the vast majority in enslavement - ideas accepted, enshrined in
dogmas
and made the basis for Institutions and state structures. The
educational
systems of all our societies are based on certain ideas and these ideas
are
inculcated into the young.
It will not surprise many
readers that the majority of these ideas
- so detrimental to true individualists and thus conscious evolution
-
derive from the poisonous philosophy of the Nazarene. One of
the most
pernicious of these ideas is the concept of equality (qv. the
article by
Faustus Scorpius in issue #2 of Exeat, "Contemporary Dogma").
Another is
what is inaccurately called 'democracy' and yet another 'freedom'.
All
these are abstract notions, idealized forms, and such incapable
achievement, except on a purely individual forms, and as such incapable
achievement, except on a purely individual basis. Yet generation
after
generation are tricked into believing in and trying to achieve these
goals
on a State and supra-state level.
Consider, for example, 'democracy.'
This is defined in many ways,
but in essence is taken to mean 'free elections' and a government of
elected officials who decide matters of policy. Any person actually
possessed of the faculty of thought will know the sham that is this
'democracy' - where promises are made but seldom kept, and where in
general
'minority interests' are more important than 'majority interests' because
in electoral terms a minority vote is very crucial. Theorists
trace
democracy to Greece -whereas anyone actually studying the wholesome
society
of ancient Greece states would know that genuine 'democracy' was possible
only within a small 'polis' composed of people related by ties of blood.
At the time of writing, hundreds of thousands of American are poised
to go
to war in the Middle East in an attempt to bring about a more 'democratic'
State and to end what is regarded as 'tyranny.' Whether or not this
in
reality is so is irrelevant - as is the fact that the US Government
may or
may not in reality be fighting for oil or to keep Israel safe.
What is
important is that the 'ideas' behind the 'crusade' are accepted by
millions
who are prepared to fight and die for them - the herd are so mesmerized
by
the ideas and the rhetoric that they are not in any sense themselves
free
and cannot, for instance, understand that even in their own country,
the
US, those ideals do not exist in reality. Their government complains
of
'human rights' violations yet ignores the daily brutality within America;
spends vast sums to fight a foreign war but cannot keep peace on its
own
streets - talk about high ideals but ignore the death of Kimberley
Harbour
of Boston gang raped, mutilated and murdered.... The pursuit
of the ideal
keeps individual mentality and consciousness on the level of the herd.
In
short, the State (and its dogma) reign, and the individual is ignored.
POSITION OF THE LHP
The LHP has always stood
opposed to abstract ideas and collectivist
thinking. It has always given individuals the opportunity to
create from
direct personal experience a way of living and a way of thinking truly
original. Of course, this was and is a hard way, a hard school
- full of
danger. But that very danger ensured that those of herd feeling
and herd
instincts perished while the naturally strong, the naturally gifted
survived and flourished. The LHP enhanced life, gave increased
vitality to
the individual - and created a lasting and genuine insight both personal
and supra-personal, which in time gave birth to wisdom. Thus
was evolution
achieved.
What should be happening
is that this evolution should be spreading
to more than a few individuals scattered across the globe - there should
have been, due to the insights of creative individuals within
civilizations, a general upsurge towards insight: in short the
emergence
of more and more 'Promethean' individuals imbued with creativity and
zest -
race after race of 'higher men' going forward to the very limits of
evolutionary possibility. Instead there has been more and more
conformity
- not less; more and more acceptance of anti-life and anti-natural
ideas.
The triumph of the weak, the scum, the cowardly - rather than their
defeat
and demise.
However, even the LHP and
satanism have been infected by the
diseases of the herd: the fawning mentality which accepts rather
than
desires to experience, that softness nurtured by society where extremes
are
classified and subjected to analysis and thus rendered safe; that desire
to
make dogma and deify worthless individuals. Satanism and the
LHP are
concerned with direct, personal experience - of going to extremes -
of
learning from those experiences and extremes, or being destroyed in
the
attempt. There is no acceptance of others, of groups, of dogmas,
ideas or
systems - there is only a prideful, fierce strong desire to achieve
the
ultimate, to experience the essence of Being, and this desire is
individual, never collective. What the LHP has done is to offer
opportunities - a certain guidance perhaps, or a way: if the
way of
yesterday does not work or is insufficient, discard it, destroy it
- but
create something new which enhances individual life and expands evolution.
There is nothing sacred.
Today, morons of the herd
are accepting - or beginning to accept -
some self-appointed authority within the LHP and satanism. There
is no
such thing! For the genuine satanist would defy even Satan Himself!
Of
course, such Masters need to be fawned upon, need herd individuals
- that
is the natural way of things, and good luck to those 'Masters' in their
own
evolution. But such types, and their modes of being, must not
become
accepted as the 'norm', as authoritative - there must be someone to
defy
them and there ways, someone or some others to carry on the inner task
of
the LHP - of making more and more achieve genuine insight and fulfil
the
potential of divinity within us all.
The question is: which type are you - slave, or Master?

Temple of Set
The Temple of set was incorporated in 1975CE by Dr M. Aquino and
other
senior initiates of the esoteric.
The Temple's philosophy is based on the evolution of individual
psychecentric consciousness towards its own divinity through the deliberate
exercise of the intelligence and will, a process of becoming (Egyptian
Xeper). Write: Box 4507 St. Louis, MO 63108 USA

BOOK REVIEW
Naos: A Practical Guide to Modern Magick. Thurston West,
1989, Order of
the Nine Angles, Coxland Press, The Studio, Chalkpit Farm, Englefield
Estate, Berkshire RG7 5EE England
If you have found the medieval
grimoires ridiculous, and the wiccan
rites bland and childish, if you despaired that the Satanic "Black
Book"
only existed in works of occult fiction, you will be delighted to have
Naos, for here is a truly Satanic grimoire.
The work begins with "Physis
magick", internal magick used for
personal self-development. The whole system is based on the Order's
Septenary Traditions (the Seven Fold Way).
External magick is described
as being the changing of events
according to the Will of the magician.
The "Sinister Tarot", its
use, layout and attributes is given, and
will be of special interest to Satanists who have been obliged to use
the
Judaeo-Christian based Tarots, or the Crowley one at best.
The "Star Game" is a modern
magickal innovation invented by the
author, a type of complex chess using seven-layered boards, and Jungian
and
alchemical symbolism as a magickal system in itself, to which prime
importance is attached in the ONA system.
Stages of initiation are
described and consist of practical but
rigorous exercises: physical and mental tests, tarot and other
meditations
and visualization.
Part Two is concerned with
"Esoteric sorcery". The methods of word
vibration and esoteric chant are given, along with the correspondence
of
specific chants to spheres of energy.
"Frenzy magick" is defined
as "becoming possessed by acausal
energies by creating through specific techniques a physical and emotional
frenzy" with the use of dance, breathing exercises, physical exhaustion
and
music.
Visualisation technique is
briefly and simply explained. Sigil
magic here involves the use of the Star Game and its alchemical symbols.
Sexual magick is the use
of energies generated by the sexual act.
It is suggested that the act is ritualized to a certain extent, by
use of
the appropriate incense, coloured candles and planetary alignments,
visualization and chant.
Dark Pathways outlines the
means of integrating the 'shadow'
aspects of the Self by utilizing the spheres and pathways of the Septenary
system through spiral dance, chant/vibration and sigil visualization.
A table
of correspondence of Path, Word of Power, sigil and Tarot image is
provided. A second table comprises descriptions of the forces;
e.g.
"Shugara" (corresp. to Tarot XVIII: The Moon), a dangerous
energy invoked
for a destructive working, G Major being the key for invoking chant.
"Shaitan" is identified as the earth-bound representative of the Dark
Gods;
Perfume/incense is sulphur; stone, opal, etc.
The section on "The Dark
Gods" explains that we are not solely
dealing with energies drawn from the individual unconscious, but with
the
Dark Gods as actual entities, which can be made manifest by the use
of
techniques which reach the appropriate levels of the psyche.
The 'Abyss'
is defined as that which separates everyday consciousness from that
which
apprehends the Dark Gods. The ordeal of the abyss involves the
confronting
of these entities and acceptance of their existence as being apart
from our
concepts of 'good and evil'. The Dark Gods may enter our universe
through
"star gates", physical gates in the galaxy. The star gate in
our solar
system is said to be located near Saturn.
A section of appendices describes
such topics as: the Left Handed
Path, the Septenary system, Magickal symbols and scripts, Hermetic
(individual, internal) rituals. The LHP, including 'traditional
Satanism'
is defined as "the use of magickal energies to enhance the evolution
of the
individual", a willed act of confronting via symbols the 'dark' or
hidden
side of consciousness and integrating it as part of the Self.
The Septenary system of the
ONA is based on the symbolic map of
consciousness and the unconscious as depicted on the Tree of Wyrd,
a
European equivalent to the Hebrews' Cabbalistic Tree of Life.
Each sphere
has its own Tarot, incense, and colour attributions, etc., which when
used
in ritual can awaken that particular sphere of energy within the
individual. The Septenary Tree of Wyrd utilizes the Norse/Anglo-Saxon
pagan god-names, Odin, Thor, Loki, etc., with the connecting paths
attributed to Tarot images.
The final section comprises
a number of ONA MSS. defining terms,
providing further correspondences, and notes on music, symbols, alchemy...
A note on the acausal/causal
explains that these terms refer to
universe(s) parallel to our own physical one, the 'goal' of sentient
life
being to increase the flow of energy from the acausal, and thereby
become
part of the acausal. Initiation and the 'Mysteries' (i.e.
the Seven Fold
Way) are the means to achieve this. The acausal and causal 'coincide'
within the individual psyche, archetypes being causal apprehensions
of
acausal energy flowing from the acausal into our universe.
This reviewer looks forward
to Thurston West's next book, also to
be published by Coxland Press, The Black Book of Satan.

RELIGIOUS ZEALOTS AIMING AT WORLD RULE
Both Christianity and Islam
derive from Judaism. All three have
'divinely inspired' visions of World conquest.
In centuries past the Jesuit
Order played a Machiavellian role in
world politics. Today the christian New Right has become a factor
in US
politics. Pres. Reagan and his guru Falwell openly spoke
of the
'apocalypse generation' and confrontation in Israel between the USA
and
USSR fulfilling the biblical prophecy of Armageddon.
Pat Robertson, Evangelist
and Republican presidential candidate,
has written: "We can embrace the religious world in one arm and
the
political world in the other. With this great ideology, if you
are not
confident to do this you had better die."
Those not embracing the christian
dispensation of the New Right are
called renegades by Robertson, and marked for annihilation in true
apocalyptic fashion.
Zionism was created to fulfil
politically the messianic visions of
Judaism. The establishment of Israel is only the first part of
the
programme. The second part is the creation of an Israeli Empire
stretching
from the Nile to the Euphrates, in line with the Jehovic covenant with
Abraham. Ultimately the goal is the creation of a Universal state
under
the Israeli flag and an heir to David enthroned in Jerusalem, capital
of
the world.
These Zionist aims have been
alluded to at various time by Zionist
leaders such as Ben Gurion, Moshe Dyan et al., and were set forth as
a
consistent political programme in 1932 by Prof. Michael Higger
in The
Jewish Utopia, endorsed as an accurate reflection of messianic Judaism
by
the Kallah of Texas Rabbis, and deposited in a private Jewish collection.
Higger writes: "The people of Israel will conquer spiritually
the nations
of the earth, so that Israel will be made high above all nations in
praise,
in name, and in glory... Only the messianic flag will remain,
and all the
nations will centre around the emblem."
The zionist programme for
world domination is fully outlined in the
Torah; the christian one in The Revelation; both are thus readily
assessable to all 'with eyes to see'.
However for several years
now the attention of the world has been
focused on a renascent Islam. With the death of Khomeini, Iraq's
Hussein
took over as a latter-day Mahdi who is calling for a Jihad against
the
infidel as in days of old.
Islam, like its two Leventine
relatives, sees itself as having a
world mission: the conversion of all to the faith of Mohammed.
Even Thatcher warned a NATO
conference this year that "there is no
guarantee that threats to our security will stop at some imaginary
line
across the Atlantic. With the spread of sophisticated weapons,
and
military technology to areas like the Middle East, potential threats
to
NATO territory may originate outside Europe."
Islamic countries having
chemical and biological missiles include
Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya and Pakistan. The Centre for Strategic
and
International Studies has warned that "the great powers are no longer
distant and disapproving observers of regional follies of developing
nations."
Seth Carus, A Fellow of the
Naval War College Foundation, stated
that "Rome itself would be threatened by such weapons in the hands
of the
Libyans. If armed with chemical warheads such a weapon could
kill
thousands of unprotected civilians in the crowded confines of Italy's
largest cities."
When Khomeini took over Iran
he was heralded as the Mahdi of Islam.
The Tunisian monthly Al-Ma'arifa (Sept. 1979) wrote: "Iran
was elected by
the Prophet for LEADERSHIP OF THE WORLD."
Now Iraq has that honoured
responsibility, and should Hussein fall
another will eventually take his place to challenge an indecisive West.
On a rational basis the dream
of a revived Islamic Empire
encroaching upon European territory is of course quite mad; but we
are not
dealing with the rational, we are dealing with religion. Many
of the
impoverished Islamic masses will gladly suffer martyrdom and thus be
assured an honoured place in Paradise. According to the Koran
Allah sends
'invisible forces' to fight alongside the true believer and makes the
plans
of the enemy 'go astray', "whatever their strength."
It is just such mysticism
which could once again inflame Islam to
take on Western nations, under a Mahdi, as their forefathers were apt
to do
until comparatively recently when confronting the colonial powers.

say to you
work, other than "well done." "Shuti", Magister Templi
Temple of Set, USA
I found the new Essays on
Satanism to be even better than the
first, and you know how I feel about the first one.
Radio Werewolf saw my address
on one of your issues of The Watcher
and now do not answer my letters, and have cut off my membership to
the
Werewolf Order. Who cares?! Believe me, it is their loss
for not
communicating with individuals such as yourself, Gilmore (ed.
The Black
Flame) and myself!
Hail Shaitan! A L Souto,
Thee Ministry Ov Shaitanic Quabala USA.
Thankyou for the ten copies
of The Bible reconsidered. I have
received no attempted refutation of it from any of the Christian
organizations I have challenged (IS that surprising?), although it
might
interest you to know that shortly after sending my challenge to the
Greater
Minneapolis Council of Churches someone took a flashbulb photo of me
from
across the street one night as I was walking home. What this
means I have
no idea.
Why do I do it? Basically
it is this: World communism collapsed
practically overnight when it became blatantly obvious to the world
-
through it modern communication networks - what an unworkable failure
it
is. When I read The Bible Reconsidered I get the idea that a
far older and
even more decrepit belief system has the potential to go to same route.
Yours in Satan, S.McL.
Priest, OLHP.

SANCTUS TEMPLI SATANAS
That's the name of a new
Finnish Satanic Order, which will be
connected with the OLHP. The Order's initiator writes that while
its
primary concern at this stage is to reach local people with the message
of
Satanism, they also welcome contact with Satanists worldwide.
STS has already produced
an introductory pamphlet, Anti-Kristus,
utilizing some OLHP material, which will be printed in a forthcoming
Watcher along with translations of other material in the pamphlet.
STS is spearheaded by a group
of young musicians and artists, and
they have a very professional approach which can be seen from the quality
of their first publication. As a result of one adv. in
a rock magazine
STS has already received 20 inquiries.
STS's logo appears on the
right. These finnish Satanists may be
contacted at : PL 36, 90521, Oulu, Suomi, Finland.

CONTEMPORARY DOGMA
(This article, written by
the Editor of The Watcher originally
appeared in the English
Satanist journal, Exeat).
The stated aim of Exeat 'to
explore taboo subjects tending to
undermine conventional ideas and morality', is indeed a noble one in
the
best traditions of satanic heresy.
There is I believe, a pervasive
taboo subject underpinning morality
today. It is a dogma every bit as far-reaching as the christian
dogma of
past centuries, and to question it is to subject oneself to virtual
inquisition. Let us here throw a heretical, Luciferian light
upon this dogma:
EGALITARIANISM
The myth of universal human
equality, of humanity as an
undifferentiated mass, is a doctrine that is so patently false, yet
so
universally insisted upon by the high priests of press, pulpit and
parliament, that it has taken on religious proportions.
The egalitarian dogma is
a hang-over from christianity, which has
been taken over by political creeds such as liberalism, and has become
entrenched in every facet of society with the full and coercive force
of
the state.
The egalitarian ethos was
set down in the New Testament by Paul who
wrote:
"You are all, in fact, sons
of God through your faith in Jesus
christ: there is no Jew nor Greek, their is neither slave nor
freeman,
there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in union with
christ
Jesus."
The christian gospel has
elevated the meek, weak, humble and bloody
worthless to divine status, against the 'mighty, wise and noble'.
As
Nietzsche pointed out, this is also the gospel of the Marxist and the
liberal.
In 1988 Pope John Paul declared
at Salzburg that "Every human
life... is endowed by God with a dignity which no one should
assail."
The proliferation of the
worthless at the expense of the
intelligent and creative is gleefully watcher and promoted by politicians
who have votes to gain, by christians who have souls to save, and by
corporate executives who have expanding mass markets to plan for.
As Dr
Elmer Pendell has pointed out past civilizations have collapsed when
genetic selection is no longer operative and the least creatively and
intellectually-endowed expand at the expense of the culture bearing
minority. (Pendell, Why civilizations Self-Destruct).
To state this hard but obvious
fact publicly is to bring the charge
of heresy down upon one's head. Leading scientists such as the
late W M
Shockley, Richard Herrnstein, Hans Eyseck, et al. who have been
bold
enough to state the truth have been met not be intelligent debate but
by
violence and slander. They have stated, to quote Francis Crick,
'all men
are not created equal." and the effect has been to state, 'the emperor
has
no clothes.'
Egalitarianism offers a simple
solution to all problem of social
and economic differences between individuals: Levelling.
If the inferior
cannot be elevated, then the superior must be humbled. This is
the spirit
of Bolshevism alive and well and resident in the West.
Let the sage advice Friedrich
Nietzsche, one of the great satanic
magus' be heeded lest the best be engulfed by the worst:
"You preachers of equality,
thus from you the tyrant-madness of
impotence cries of 'equality': thus your most secret tyrant-appetite
disguises itself in words of virtue.
"Soured by self-conceit,
repressed envy.... they burst from you as
a flame and madness of revenge... For justice speaks thus to
me: 'Men are
not equal.' And they should not become so either! For what were
my love of
the Overman if I spoke otherwise?" (Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra,
Of
the Tarantulas).
