CRIME & PUNISHMENT
|
||
|
||
Since liberalism ascended to the control of our society and
|
||
politically applied the Christian slush of tolerance and brotherly love to
|
||
the dregs of humanity, our society has witnessed an escalation of crime
|
||
year by year.
|
||
Yet the liberals, and the preachers and lay-preachers who have
|
||
latched onto the Labour government, having witnessed the failure of their
|
||
other-worldly dogma, propose not a reversal of their currently disastrous
|
||
policies on crime but an extension on ever grander scales.
|
||
What they will never admit, because it strikes at the very root of
|
||
their social gospel, is that one does not achieve a quality society if the
|
||
constituent parts of that society comprise an increasing number of genetic
|
||
garbage.
|
||
Social engineering schemes geared towards changes in the
|
||
educational and justice system are a complete waste of tax-expenditure if
|
||
they are not predicated upon a recognition of the predominantly genetic
|
||
basis of intelligence, personality/psychology, and the related factors of
|
||
crime, deliquency and personality disorder.
|
||
In a study by Mednick, Gabrielli and Hutchings, published in
|
||
Science (May 1984), entitled "Genetic Influences in Criminal convictions:
|
||
Evidence from an Adoption Court" it was found that convictions of adoptive
|
||
parents didn't significantly relate to their son's criminality, but
|
||
convictions of the biological parents did.
|
||
Clearly eugenic measures are long overdue, and are the key to
|
||
reducing crime and many other social ills. Habitual criminals are likely
|
||
to be the product of their genetic inheritance, more so than any alleged
|
||
social disadvantage. Sterilization and capital punishment are in order.
|
||
Secondly, eugenic measures widely applied will create a quality
|
||
population and remove from the gene pool those genes making for low
|
||
intelligence, personality disorders and criminal tendencies. Any organism
|
||
which does not excrete its toxic wastes will die, and the human social
|
||
organism is no exceptions. Nature's law of genetic selection, put into
|
||
recess by civilization, needs to be reactivated as a conscious policy.
|
||
Such proposals are of course anathema to the Christian as being a
|
||
tampering with the will of god, and to the liberal who sees them as a
|
||
denial of 'human rights'.
|
||
In the short-term vigorous forms of punishment should not be
|
||
neglected, on the basis that they don't 'reform' offenders.
|
||
Dr Raymond B Cattell, the eminent psychologist and eugenicist, has
|
||
advocated in his book Beyondism "the need for severe measures against
|
||
criminals."
|
||
"Any retribution, as distinct from a therapeutic treatment of
|
||
criminals the Humanist regards a purely irrational and demonstratably due
|
||
to deep 'psychoanalytic' sadisms in the citizen. Yet in the normal
|
||
integrated person the severity with which demands are made on the self is
|
||
correlated with the severity of demands on others. It is quite probable
|
||
from recent research on the superego that its strength in the majority may
|
||
be reinforced by just punishment of offenders and demoralized by an
|
||
unreflective system of meeting crime by an indulgent 'therapeutic'
|
||
attitude."
|
||
It's time to stop 'turning the other cheek' and start dispensing
|
||
justice.

PRINCE OF DARKNESS IN POLYNESIA : 1000 BCE
|
||
|
||
Set, the original Prince of Darkness, was being honoured with
|
||
petroglyphs on boulders in Hawaii as far back as 3000 years ago by Egyptian
|
||
sea-farers.
|
||
The Egyptians conducted explorations for gold which took them as
|
||
far afield as Indonesia, America, Australia, NZ and Hawaii. In NZ Egyptian
|
||
coins have been found dating back to 200BCE. At Gympie, Queensland, there
|
||
is a pyramid perhaps 3000 years old, near which petroglyphs of the anhk
|
||
cross, and a scarab have been found.
|
||
The Hawaiian petroglyphs are on Lanai.
|
||
In 1963 the British Egyptologist Dr Gwyn Griffiths, upon viewing
|
||
photographs of the inscriptions, said that they "are so Egyptian they were
|
||
done either by the Egyptians themselves, or by some tribe to whom they had
|
||
taught their religion."
|
||
Of seven boulders examined by epigraphers, petroglyphs of Egyptian
|
||
tomb and other funerary designs, boats, Egyptian-type dogs, are among the
|
||
subjects to be seen. Set is shown in his dog form, with forked tail, and
|
||
is also depicted with his symbolic trumpet and goose. Set's wife Nephthys
|
||
is also portrayed.

TEMPLE OF SET
|
||
|
||
The Temple of Set was incorporated in 1975CE, when Dr Michael
|
||
Aquino and the majority of the priesthood of the Church of Satan resigned
|
||
in protest against Anton LaVey's decision to redesign the C/S "as a
|
||
non-functional vehicle for his personal expression and financial income."
|
||
Set is the Egyptian deity recognized by the Temple as the most
|
||
ancient of the divine personifications representing psychecentric
|
||
consciousness. He is the origin of the Hebraic Satan (from Set-hen, one of
|
||
the god's formal titles). Images of Set have been dated to ca. 3200 BCE,
|
||
and inscriptions dating to ca. 5000BCE.
|
||
The Temple's philosophy is based on the development and
|
||
contribution of the individual psyche - "the 'real you' of your conscious
|
||
intelligence," rejecting the aim of other religions to melt the psyche into
|
||
oblivion of a 'universal consciouness.'
|
||
"The second premise of the Temple is that the psychecentric
|
||
consciousness can evolve towards its own divinity through deliberate
|
||
exercise of the intelligence and will, a process of becoming or coming into
|
||
being" (Egyptian=Xeper).
|
||
The Temple is not dogmatic, and "seeks merely to be a forum for
|
||
Setians to communicate and cooperate with one another constructively and
|
||
courteously."
|
||
"There are not congregations of docile 'followers' [present C/S
|
||
members please note - editor] - only cooperative philosophers and
|
||
magicians."
|
||
Initial fees are $50 (US), $US60.00 overseas for which the accepted
|
||
Setian I<> receives a membership card and certificate, a medallion (all
|
||
beautifully produced) a sub. to The Scroll of Set and the Crystal Tablet
|
||
of Set. The latter includes members' intercommunication roster; The Book
|
||
of Coming Forth by Night, which gave Dr Aquino the mandate to form the
|
||
Temple; The Diabolicon, a wonderful piece of classical Satanism penned by
|
||
Dr Aquino while stationed as an intelligence officer in Vietnam; Dr
|
||
Aquino's commentary on Crowley's Book of the Law, and much else which will
|
||
provide abundant mental sunshine and inspiration to anyone interested in
|
||
the Left Hand Path.
|
||
A copy of the Temple's Gen. Info. and Admission Policies is
|
||
available from: Temple of Set, Box 4507 St. Louis, MO 63108 USA, or
|

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
|
||
|
||
Thanks for The Watcher. I do like your mag. - you concentrate on
|
||
the areas in which you have expertise, which makes it particularly
|
||
valuable.
|
||
Magda Graham, Editor, Dark lily, Britain.
|
||
|
||
|
||
You are a great man - the very embodiment of Desmon's declaration,
|
||
"Blessed are the destroyers of false hope; they are the true Messiahs. (HE
|
||
was a New Zealander also).
|
||
Our next issue will be widely circulated! We eagerly seek your
|
||
input. Please free to "sound-off". A scathing editorial or serious study -
|
||
whatever your prefer! Yours in Satan, John Dewey Allee, Editor,
|
||
Brimstone, Ancient Brotherhood of Satan, USA
|
||
|
||
|
||
From what we've read, your ministry is sound and quite dynamic on
|
||
the literary level. Your work in the satanic mode is just as valid as
|
||
anyone elses. You deserve more appreciation and recognition than you will
|
||
even get from others who want to hog the literary limelight for themselves.

5 February, 1990, XXV A.S.
|
||
|
||
Dear Sirs:
|
||
|
||
Your information on The Order of The Left-Hand Path including The
|
||
Watcher and other pamphlets was recently shown to me by an associate in The
|
||
Black House. I am a member of The Werewolf Order, an elite Satanic militia
|
||
who has taken on the responsibility of preparing the spearhead for a
|
||
radical Satanic dominion. Upon reading your material I was struck by its
|
||
support of the drug abuser Aleister Crowley, the child molester Michael
|
||
Aquino and many other useless claimants to the Satanic philosophy. The
|
||
Werewolf Order stands in strict opposition to all of these practices,
|
||
liberal-humanistic ideologies or in the worst case, The Temple of Shit
|
||
(sic), even a juvenile belief in a diety. All of these beliefs contradict
|
||
the rational ideas presented in The Satanic Bible by Anton La Vey as well
|
||
as the philosophy of the Werewolf order. Your use of the Church of Satan's
|
||
symbol seems questionable at best, as I doubt that they would approve of
|
||
the association.
|
||
|
||
If you sincerely suppose the obsolete ideas implied by your listing
|
||
of all these individuals who we feels are standing in the way of true
|
||
Satanic world power, then we must state that you are hardly qualified to
|
||
represent Satanism in New Zealand or elsewhere as your activities would
|
||
only dilute the strength of a growing movement that would best be served
|
||
without such embarrassments to out cause.
|
||
|
||
On a personal note, your quoting such an important thinker as
|
||
Nietzsche with such lightweights as Nomolos, The Black Flame and other
|
||
untermenschen would hardly point the way to The Overman. This is not to
|
||
perpetuate the petty squabbling so familiar to all small minded
|
||
organizations, but to make clear that there is at least one Satanic group
|
||
that insists on being unholier than thou by refusing to give credence to
|
||
such excreta.
|
||
|
||
Hopefully, you may awaken to these truths before you are drawn in
|
||
to the sinking ship you are presently drowning on.
|
||
|
||
Heil Fenris!

Minister of Ideological Purity

|
||
OPEN LETTER
|
||
Mr Escott
|
||
Your letter of 5 Feb. received today.
|
||
Your description of the purpose of The Werewolf Order certainly
|
||
makes it sound commendable, but in view of your other comments I am left
|
||
wondering whether you have the experience and attitude necessary to achieve
|
||
such a lofty purpose as 'preparing the spearhead for a Satanic dominion.'
|
||
Having effectively spoken out publicly against 'liberal-humanistic
|
||
ideologies' for 15 years, and demolished in debate some of NZ's leading
|
||
advocates of such ideologies among academe and the media, I don't really
|
||
need a lecture on ideology and strategy.
|
||
Your attitude in your letter is wholly negative, sectarian and
|
||
dogmatic. It is reminiscent of the self-destruct mechanism of
|
||
dogma-obsessed grouplets of the extreme Left and Right who are more
|
||
concerned with intra-group politics and intrigue than advancing their
|
||
respective causes. The very term 'ideological purity' suggests this.
|
||
Trivial bitching about ideological intricacies is no substitute for
|
||
advancing the cause.
|
||
That you are so upset by my having listed impartially several
|
||
Satanist groups which are outside the scope of the Church of Satan
|
||
indicates insecurity within your own movement.
|
||
I am fully aware of the various reprehensible personality traits of
|
||
Crowley, and he recognised his own shortcomings and failure to live up to
|
||
his own creed. However, Crowley's personal life should not detract from
|
||
the fundamentally Nietzschean and satanic character of Thelema, once lifted
|
||
out of the obscurity of eastern and Western mysticism. On a strictly
|
||
strategic and practical level I think there is also something to be said
|
||
for reaching out to those in the Thelemic community who may be receptive to
|
||
Satanism, rather than alienating ourselves from each other for the sake of
|
||
'ideological purity.' The CS must recognise this too, to some extent,
|
||
otherwise why would it trot out Kenneth Anger and his Crowleyan films when
|
||
it suits?
|
||
My own views on drug-abuse, and indeed all forms of
|
||
self-dissipation are detailed in my article 'Satanic morality.'
|
||
In re. to my use of the CS symbol, I discontinued using it upon
|
||
being informed that it is reserved for CS official reps. If the symbol is
|
||
so jealously guarded by CS then I would have thought sensible precautions
|
||
would have been taken, such as informing members as to its status via a
|
||
constitution. I not that the symbol continues to be widely used by groups
|
||
outside the CS.
|
||
I can assure you that I have no great desire to set myself up as a
|
||
rep. of Satanism in NZ, although I don't know what qualifies you to tell
|
||
me I'm not qualified to do so. It would be interesting to know which of us
|
||
has the greater experience as a polemicist, organizer and debator, and the
|
||
best track record.
|
||
|
||
Since there is obviously little direction emanating from the
|
||
leadership of the CS, and there is obviously nobody else in NZ with the
|
||
gumption to initiate something here, I felt obliged to give it a go myself.
|
||
Since the CS leadership declines to give direction, I presumed it at least
|
||
encouraged self-initiative on the part of its members; obviously not.
|
||
In your zeal for 'ideological purity' at the expense of tangible
|
||
progress it seems that even the CS affiliated magazine The Black Flame is
|
||
not spared your wrath. Perhaps such negative criticism and condemnations
|
||
are the only outlets you can think of to justify your grandiose title, Ho.

|

|

Michael A. Aquino
|
||
|
||
|
||
Dear Setian Bolton,
|
||
|
||
Thank you for the copies of the 2/5/XXV letter from "G. Escott" of
|
||
Radio Werewolf and your 5/22/XXV reply.
|
||
|
||
|
||
We haven't paid much attention to RW, assuming it to be merely a
|
||
nom de plume for one or more LaVey-enthralled eccentrics in Los Angeles.
|
||
In his decadence Anton seems to be particularly attractive to the type of
|
||
social cripple who desperately needs a guru to fawn before - but also a
|
||
guru who is sufficiently aloof not to intrude upon his followers' bratty
|
||
rebelliousness with inconvenient expectations of mature behaviour. It is
|
||
quite obvious to those of us who have been around for awhile that Anton
|
||
holds such "spaniels" in contempt - using them as they may be used, then
|
||
discarding them the moment they expect anything in return from him other
|
||
than an occasional kick to satisfy their masochism.
|
||
|
||
|
||
How different it is from the authentic (I-X) Church of Satan, among
|
||
whose membership there was a climate of mutual courtesy, respect, and trust
|
||
similar to that of the Temple of Set today - unsurpising , after all, since
|
||
we are the original Church of Satan continued.
|
||
|
||
|
||
This is the first time I have seen a LaVey-spaniel refer to me as a
|
||
"child molester". Obviously the malicious allegations by that Army
|
||
chaplain against Lilith and myself have long since been exposed as
|
||
fraudulent, with no charges ever being brought against us. The San
|
||
Francisco Police Department has since taken disciplinary action against the
|
||
two officers who used the chaplain's allegations as an excuse to attack us
|
||
[see the June Scroll of Set, now being mailed, as well as the enclosed
|
||
reprint from an earlier issue]. Other legal procedures continue which,
|
||
when brought to their logical conclusion, will see the chaplain personally
|
||
called to account for his crime against us.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Accordingly RW's referral to me as a "child molester" in a letter
|
||
to you is a clear act of libel, which I shall file against the eventual but
|
||
unlikely possibility that RW may someday be financially worth the attention
|
||
of my attorneys.
|
||
|
||
|
||
"Escott's" denunciation of our "juvenile belief in a diety" is very
|
||
impressive and would be even more so if "Escott" could spell the word
|
||
"deity" correctly. Our philosophy indeed affirms the existence of Set and
|
||
of the Temple's authenticity as an institution sacred to that neter.
|
||
"Escott's" indignation is rather odd considering that the post-X "Church of
|
||
Satan" is neither a church nor does it believe in Satan. It is, by
|
||
default, merely an Anton LaVey spaniel kennel - which is not exactly what
|
||
the Prince of Darkness had in mind when the Church was founded on
|
||
Walpurgisnacht I.
|
||
|
||
|
||
As you so rightly observe in your response to "Escott", boorish
|
||
name-calling is no substitute for substantive criticism. And the hard fact
|
||
of the matter is that the Temple of Set is a rather pleasant, honest, and
|
||
open institution in which a great many intelligent and interesting
|
||
individuals are enjoying one another's company, artistry, and creativity.
|
||
|
||
|
||

Dear Faustus Scorpius,
|
||
I am sending along an IMO for a one year sub. to the Watcher, one
|
||
copy of The Anti-Christ, and one copy of Essays on Satanism.
|
||
I chose Satanism as my 'religion of choice' well over 15 years ago.
|
||
I have spent much of that time exploring many of the other systems offered
|
||
on today's palette of Occult/New age/Magickal teachings. While I have
|
||
enjoyed these excursions into esoteric knowledge and have met many fine
|
||
people along the way, it seems that I always returned at some point of
|
||
divergence to my roots as a Satanist.
|
||
The question of how others outside of the US may express their
|
||
Satanic beliefs has always intrigued me; and I look forward to reading your
|
||
publications. Sincerely, T.C. WV., USA
