=20 The FAQS below are a combination of e-mails and general questions I've
been= asked over the years from those new to the occult as well as those
trying = to understand it a bit better. These FAQS will be updated when new
questio= ns come to mind or as new e-mails come in asking about the occult.
----------------------------------------------------------------------= ---
Q: Do occultists hurt or sacrifice babies or animals?
= A: NEVER! No sane, rational or civilized genuine Western occultist would =
ever bring harm to a helpless baby, child or animal EVER! Santeria and Voo=
doo are some of the VERY few existing occult sects that still practice anim=
al sacrifice and those who practice generally eat the animal afterwards. T=
he only thing that differs between those few sects and the average Joe is r=
itual before killing and eating an animal.
Q: Do occultists g= o around "cursing" others at will?
A: Most who are naive to magic but= find out someone practices it, thinks we
run around killing anyone who loo= ks at us weird or says something we don't
like, they are grossly mislead. = All genuine magic works with nature via
justice and justification, for more= information on this please read "The
scales of balance and Justice" that I= wrote for the occulterrarium. Also
cursing someone requires a great deal = of energy and time, somthing that
would be better put towards improving our= own lives and not wasting on
someone unworthy of it being wasted on.

Q: Jim so and so has a lot of books on the occult and calls himself = a
Priest, he even runs his own group!
A: This is a common plague in t= he occult, Jim so and so is just following
the rest of the lot lice that he= thinks are occultists. I can call myself a
can of tuna, even have tons of= books on tuna fish, however obviously I am
not. Books are not genuine ins= truction in anything and can NEVER replace
learning under a skilled occulti= st who learned from someone else in a long
standing tradition. As for runn= ing a group, Jim so and so is just feeding
off of the fact that 90% of peop= le are both blind followers and ignorant.
The whole want for a title or wa= nt to start up a group out of thin air
stems from the want of Jim so and so= to feel like a somebody.
Q: Do occultists worship Satan?
= A: Nope, "Satan" and "Satanism" were a myth created by christian to cause
=fear and bring people to the pulpit on Sundays. Modern Satanism as created=
by Anton Szandor LaVey, is nothing more then Ayn Rand, Might is right and =
Neitzsche with ritual.
Q: What is the "left hand path"?
= A: The occult is separated into the "Right hand path" and the "Left hand
p=ath" each with their own distinguishing charactoristics. The right hand
pa=th is generally a path requiring members to follow a strict moral code of
h= elping everyone to make themselves feels like better people. The right
han= d path also see's the world as a happy, caring place that is filled
withpe= ople who are all good at heart. The right hand path also strictly
forbids = doing any harm to anyone for any reason. The left hand path allows
practic= ioners to develop their own moral code and to help themselves and
their lov= ed ones only. Those in the left hand path see people as generally
dull, la= zy, ignorant and stupid and the world as a sesspool of mediocrity
where it'= s "Dog eat dog" and "Survival of the fittest".
Q: What is magic= ?
A: There are two forms of magic, lesser magic and high magic. To p= ut it
simply, lesser magic is the use of energy and will to change probabil= ity
for the will's desire in the magicians favor irregardless of how improb=
able. High magic is magic used to change the self and remove mental obstic=
als that may prove detrimental to personal progression. Most believe ritua=
lis needed in magic when in reality magic can be used nearly everyday and =
at any time without any magical peripherals or ritual. Ritual is only good=
when a group is working towards a mutual goal or celebrating a religious h=
oliday.
Q: What's the difference between the "occult" and "a = cult"?
A: As defined by www.dictionary.com a cult is;
"1. = A religion or religious sect generally considered to be extremist or
false,= with its followers often living in an unconventional manner under
theguid= ance of an authoritarian, charismatic leader.
1b. The followers of su= ch a religion or sect.
2. A system or community of religious worship = and ritual.
3. The formal means of expressing religious reverence; r= eligious ceremony
and ritual.
4. A usually nonscientific method or r= egimen claimed by its originator to
have exclusive or exceptional power in = curing a particular disease.
5. Obsessive, especially faddish, devot= ion to or veneration for a person,
principle, or thing.
5b. The objec= t of such devotion.
6. An exclusive group of persons sharing an esot= eric, usually artistic or
intellectual interest."
Occult is a La= tin word meaning "Hidden" and is used to describe the hidden
wisdom or a pa= th of wisdom (ie. the occult).
Q: Do I have to dress or act dif= ferently?
A: Yes, you have to be yourself and dress accordingly!
Q: Do occultists brainwash people?
A: NEVER! Brainwashing as= defined at www.dictionary.com is;
"brainwash
v 1: persuade= completely, often through coercion; "The propaganda
brainwashed many peopl= e" 2: submit to brainwashing; indoctrinate forcibly"
No true occ= ultist would impose their own personal perceptions on another,
let alone fo= rce them to believe in what another does. Christianity and
other mainstrea= m religions however fall directly under the category of a
cult who brainwas= h even the youngest of children. Throughout history
there's been thousands= murdered in "Gods name" for being infidels and not
worshipping and believi= ng in what they want them to. Murder in "Gods name"
was written and approv= ed of in the bible where it says;
"Deuteronomy 6:15 (For the LO= RD thy God is a jealous God among you) lest
the anger of the LORD thy God b= e kindled against thee, and destroy thee
from off the face of the earth."
and
"Deuteronomy 7:5 But thus shall ye deal with them= ; ye shall destroy their
altars, and break down their images, and cut down = their groves, and burn
their graven images with fire."
Q: You m= ust not have read the bible, quran or torah and that's why you're
not a [in= sert religion here].
A: Wrong, I actually have read all three in dept= h and that's exactly why I
am not one!
Q: Who is an occultist?A: There is no real classification, style of dress,
occupation, race,= age or any other factor in who exactly is or can be an
occultist. Your fr= iends, coworkers, politicians and local officials,
familymembers, neighbor= s all might be occultists without you really ever
knowing.
