Promotion at Work

A couple of weeks ago, I was presented with a promotion at work, resulting in yet another round of corporate political chess. While this is always necessary (and in fact, quite enjoyable from my perspective), this is also time consuming.

Fear not, my dear readers – this round of gameplay is almost complete, and I will soon be returning here to further satisfy your entertainment needs.

A recent poster to BiB asked me to write something up about the current “financial crisis”. Intrigued by his suggestion, I’ve began an outline of ideas that may very well turn into a post here. Stayed tuned…

A challenge to having meaningful discussion around this topic is that what actually happened vs. what is generally reported to have happened are two very different things – finance is complex and interwoven, and it takes some skill to find the straw in the needle stack.

And thus, I present to you a video that describes current banking, home ownership, and credit problems we are facing. Take the time and watch this a few times – it really needs to sink in well.

Upon further reflection, I’ve removed the last posting on the blog, and performed some slight editing on the one prior to that. In order to do these topics justice, they need to be significantly clarified and worked through in a much more formal manner. It is my intent here to communicate my thoughts as concisely and correctly as possible, and the removed post didn’t even come close to satisfying my own sense of aesthetics. Rest assured, the topics they touch upon will be a frequent point of discussion here at BiB.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

For my own purposes, I divide the history of the CoS into four parts:

  1. It’s founding by Dr LaVey in year One, Anno Satanas, coinciding with the publishing of the Satanic Bible – the philosophical underpinnings of Satanism.
  2. The casting out into the desert a rag tag group of black clad, ant-eater worshiping poseurs. Dr. LaVey assets that progression in the hierarchy of the CoS is to be determined by real accomplishments in one’s own life.
  3. The passing of Dr. LaVey in 1997, which culminated in Magus Peter Gilmore becoming the 2nd High Priest of the CoS
  4. Today, where more thoughful Satanists are expanding and refining Dr. LeVay’s principals and philosophies. Examples include recent writings by Magus Gilmore and Magister James Sass – particularly the concept of “Deep Satanism”

It is the intention of my own writings here to continue the newly born refinement of Satanic ideas for those who care to employ them. An arrogant statement for certain, but I am completely confident that I can back my shit up with results.
