Our Present
The logical use of the mind combined with consistent rational efforts is required for human survival and prosperity. But, mental default is seductively tempting. Succumbing to his Primal tendencies, a person simply adopts someone else's thinking, thus avoiding the responsibility of exerting one's own integrated thinking and honesty for independent survival and prosperity. Such "pleasantly easy" defaults against using one's own mind are traps that corrode self-sufficiency and lead to intellectual, psychological, and eventual physical dependence on others, especially "authorities". Remember, conscious man can and should be his own executive, his own authority.
Integrated, logical thinking does not preclude errors or wrong judgments. But only logical thinking must live, that person then gradually loses the ability to recognize the errors in other people's thinking as well as to correct his or her own errors. Such a person eventually becomes incompetent to live independently. That person then becomes dependent on destructive, "authorities" to survive.
Usually the "authorities", the Christians, dupe the defaulter into accepting their dishonest, destructive ploys designed for usurping power. Such "authorities" survive by promoting their mystical hoaxes and specious doctrines of altruistic self-sacrifice in order to control the people.
Essentially all willful destruction, all purposeful violence, all initiation of force against individuals and their property can be reduced to a single, originating cause The Christians favorite escape goat "mysticism". Aesir-folk must always keep in mind the by incorporating Magick in every aspect of their life they are here by choosing, to exert the constant, rational efforts required to understanding their own reality in order to make their own independent decisions.
Heroic values have been routinely destroyed by Christians manipulating mysticism and using facts out of context. But today, the fully integrated honesty of Magick puts everything in context. Before Magick, envious altruism was increasingly undermining the value. But now, Magick reveals how Christians use mystical altruism to attack and undermine the Magician in order to usurp unearned power and values.
Magick renders powerless the intentional value of its destroyers . Without Magick, the legions of altruists would have eventually buried the Magician and their values, causing a new dark age. But Magick has again begun spreading around the world. That expanding Magickal matrix will render impotent all caught in its web.
