I have highish degrees in Gardnerain, Alexandrian, NROOGD and Ár nDraíocht Féin. I'm a High Priest and have married couples with my Old Order Gardnerian creds. 3rd degree OTO, BOTA and the Church of All Worlds. It's all empty...it's perpetual circling. There is no potency nor epic moment on those paths. The only thing I have found to be somewhat sane is the Russian Orthodoxy (ROCOR). It's all myst/mist and fizzy pops that claim 7% alcohol without a buzz.
This song doesn't really fit here but I presume no on will mind since I won't embed it.

If you want a direct link to power in today's world, you have to sell yourself out and take up the offers that will be heard at 3-5am on the frequency in your left ear if you chose to tune into it. I would suggest you do not. And if you get a visit and 'Mr.D' enters your life and allows you to walk between worlds for a week, you better have a good group of close peeps around you that won't send you into the bin. If you do meet Mr. D...tell him I say hello...he knows me and if you need a non-Christian backup, yell for Legba and use my trick on him...never ask a request for yourself...that way, it will be acted upon without any karmic debt to that fellow. The anti-Christ is about 17 years of age and lives in Florida. Expect...well you can not expect the unexpected so no point in trying.
