Well, seeing as how I don't have a penis, obviously that person is going to be me.
Well, we were talking about e-peen anyway... So theoretically you could still compete, haha!

Actually no we're not. I have made a claim that all magical traditions come with prescribed symbolism which is followed by most followers. You responded with "join my group! It's different!"
So far you're the only one measuring anything here.
Fair enough, but what I am saying is unless you've been a member of the Temple of Set you cannot possibly make such a claim. :no:

I can if all evidence points towards it, such as the incorporation of the god Set into the organization's title, your use of Xeper (except oddly not in this post, huh), and the fact that you have yet to give evidence that would suggest otherwise.
i made my box out of nothing so it has no walls.!!Wait... how to we measure the size of the boxes? The box thing is a metaphor. It... it really is not intended to be an actual spatial reference. >_>
Now, you could talk about what the box is made like. Some people's boxes are made of inflexible concrete and others make it out of something that is easier to reshape and change. Some people's boxes might have mirrored glass walls. Others might be porous and let lots of air in. Maybe some boxes are built so poorly that a stiff wind would blow them over? Maybe some withstand great earthquakes?
Okay. I... am going to stop now. *laughs*
So in general what you guys intend to accomplish sounds very good to me.
But there's one little detail... you call evil entities and use an inverted pentagram. Oops! Isn't that inviting troubles?
Why do I say "evil" entities? Because even the archetype of Satan is of a being which is hostile to Humanity in general. And I'm not speaking of god Pan. I mean the classic, bad cop/public prosecutor/district attorney of the Demiurge. Then why do you call such beings? Is that really necessary?
...I had pretty hard experiences with dark beings in the astral plane (you could call them nightmares) while I was vulnerable to them. I know those shadows can ruin someone's life in a myriad of unexpected ways...
So, I'm puzzled by your dealing with such beings.
No, but one's mental conception of an entity, until less grossly willed states of consciousness arise, largely defines its experiential reality. That is to say, most people who 'work' with Satan imagine 'him' to be very different than the Christian imagining. Such a recast Satan is not necessarily malevolent - or at least, not in a way that is not amply compensated with benevolence as the raw majesty of life disburses suffering and joy in measured equilibrium.One thing is becoming a rebel and wanting to improve your life just by using the power of your own true self (which is something I admire!) and another is dealing with hostile, highly intelligent entities, thousands of years old that could crush you like an ant anytime they wish, just because they despise humans. Demons, evil aliens, Titans, Old Ones, whatever, is it worth the risk of calling them?
You're completely avoiding his point. The Temple of Set is in a box as small as the rest of such boxes (such as the RHP boxes...).

You just can't let this ToS dogma go man.
I never said I'm right and you're wrong. Hell even RHP religions may hold truth. That makes you no less of a narrow minded fundy with ToS at the end of your vision. You quote Aquino like a prophet and preach ToS and it's beliefs like the word of God. Dogma.
