Glad to be appreciated, Esclarmonde.

Some snippets I left out:

By Crowley's definition, every intentional act is an act of Magic. This ties in, I think, to your Math of Magic theme. And gives us a way to beat back that massive depression the NUWO is beaming at us. Weeks ago a posting here told us the mass mind-control mechanism is a transceiver. That means we can beam back to its source.

Jung describes two spiritual sub-entities within us: the animus (male) and the anima (female). They may be analogous to the two cerebral hemispheres. I've read studies that say homosexuals have better linkage between the two than straight people. If so, this explains some of the trenchant social commentary gays and bisexuals come out with. (Yes, it gives me a welcome discomfort too.)

I think in NUWOs and Alpha males in general this connection is crippled. Despite their occasional Bohemian club cross-dressing, etc., they possess an anima subjugated to their animus. Chronic inner turmoil would result, externalized as chronic war. Societies dominated by such types would subjugate their women. Heterosex would never happen on an equal basis.

Yahweh is such a society's god. The Ten Commandments are addressed to men. Women are mentioned only as "thou shalt not covet" objects with a status slightly above "thy neighbor's" house, his ox, his ass (one assumes "donkey" here--LOL), etc.

I'm reminded of "Why Are We In Vietnam?" by Norman Mailer.

The NUWO Alpha male storms the earth in pursuit of something that lies within him. Damn the foilage, screw the Indian, subjugate the black. He meets the Greys, who also are looking externally for something they once had within. An unnatural alliance is formed, and the result is our recent X Files Reality.

They are incomplete. They lack the "ears" a la Hannibal's account of Sitting Bull's vision. Frustration drives them to the blackest of magics.

Temporal power is a refuge for incomplete spirits. And the NUWOs want total control over everything, including us. We have been externalized by them, because they fear us.
