+[1]Flemming Hansen Oh I had to look up the quote; the singular
   reference linked it to Thelema which links it to Crowley
   ultimately.* While every ideology has a mystery behind it,
   either "ancient" or "handed down through the ages and sages", or
   what you often see in online debating, "self-evident" or
   "rational" - or what I hear from mathematicians, "mathematics is
   pure" -* it doesn't really matter where.* Every ideology has a
   history behind it from my viewpoint: nothing fell from the sky
   or has a "history from the misty ages at the dawn of mankind". I
   mean - it may - I'm not saying that it doesn't - but I grew up
   surrounded by teenage Wiccans (yeah, 80s - it was big then) -
   and EVERYBODY had some mysterious grandmother who taught them
   the ancient ways of xxxxxxx etc. And once you hear the same
   story enough times from different people, rather than confirming
   it, it get me skeptical and I go, "Ok now, how can all of these
   different people have the same story?"* and then I dig a little.
   that's not to say I found "the truth" as it were; I just like
   getting a well-rounded overview of subcultures; I find it all
   quite interesting.
