King Solomon's Goat. Bartlett G. Willard
He has his name embroidered on his rich, elaborate dress, to wit, I E S. He holds up three fingers as he was taught to do when he was the infant Buddha, and on his head is the seven-rayed headdress of Buddha, the god of the seven-rayed sun.
If you have catarrh, place a medallion of the Infant Jesus on your nose, and the catarrh will disappear. – Miraculous Infant Jesus of Prague, 30. A medal of the Divine Infant has been known to cure a sore thumb, if fastened in faith to the diseased member and accompanied by nine days prayer. – Idem 36. A man in financial difficulties made a novena (nine days prayer) to the Holy Child, and at the end of the devotions somebody gave him $35. Then he commenced another novena and was helped to win a prize in a lottery. Then he commenced the third novena, and Jehovah compelled a grasping mortgagee to discharge his mortgage on the devotee’s house, and another party gave him $10. – Idem 52.
In the Hebrew Bible you will see that Bethel, or house of God, referred to in Genesis, 28:19, is spelt Bath Al, which means the house of the sun or sun-god, the same as Bothal or Brothel, the temple of worship of the Druids and Indians, a circle of twelve monoliths with a pillar in the centre, also called paradise. We changed the vowels and made it read Beth El, as we did not care to have our God related to such trash as Al and Allah, the Arabian god.
Arius and the Council of Nice agreed that the Son is called Wisdom. Refer to “Sephira,” Stand. Dic., and you will see that Jehovah is named Wisdom and that he is the son of, or first emanation from Kether, consequently it is claimed that he is one of the christs. The only gods ever worshipped were the sun and his wife, the moon, to whom he was not legally married. The idols are images of incarnate sun-gods.
CHAPTER VII.
The Host, a Human Sacrifice
The Monstrance was a conventionalized Assyrian Grove, containing the Host, the male and female emblems, and corresponded with the Ark and was transparent, so that the devotees could look on the blessed symbols and live forever. It was called the Monstrance because it contained the hermaphrodite monster, now or formerly worshipped by the devotees of all religions. The directions of St. Cyril, of Jerusalem, were: “After kissing all the brothers and sisters, you touch the consecrated things to the eyes, nose, mouth and ears.” See Ency. Brit. 8:632.
Under the mediumship of Eugene Vintras in Paris, the Devil placed his signature on the Hosts of the Church in characters of blood. The Abbe Charvoz brought one of the miraculously marked Hosts, bearing the signature of Satan, to Elephas Levi. One of the signatures was the Caduceus of the Greeks, the emblem of the Godhead, two serpents entwined about a rod, but the rod was omitted. Levi calls it the Typhonian sign manual because by omitting the rod, it thus denies the existence of the Supreme God Jehovah. The Devil, in the stigmata, asserts that there are only two gods, the two powers of the astral light, attraction and repulsion, the creator and the destroyer. – Mysteries of Magic.
“In the case of Father Gerard in 1731, who was tried at Aix, in France, for resorting to sorcery in the seduction of his parishioner, Mlle. Catherine Cadiere, it was shown that he breathed upon her, and that she instantly conceived a violent love for him and had extatic visions and hysterical convulsions, and stigmata or blood marks of the Passion appeared upon her, that is, the bleeding marks of thorns on her brow, of nails in her hands and feet, and of a lance cut in her side. Of the twenty five judges, twelve voted to send the priest to the stake.” – Isis Unveiled, 2-633.
The doctrine of transubstantiation, or the myth that the bread and wine become the actual body and blood of God, originated among the Hindus, and we stole it from them. The god Brahma was the astral light or magnetism, and when the priests charged the hosts with magnetism, they were charged with god, and consequently were gods. It is said that each separate part of this blood sacrifice is a Christ, so thousands of Christs were served up at a feast to be eaten by the savage devotees, and each cannibal ate a whole Christ to save his dastard soul. It is called the Host because they knifed him or struck him down, and it is called the Eucharist because they rejoice over his death and make a joyful feast upon the carcass. The Eucharist is one of the oldest rites of antiquity, instituted many hundreds of years before the Lord’s Supper. It was a repetition of the drama in Eden in commemoration of the fall into generation. By the worship of the foul idols in the Monstrance, by the idolatry of the Eucharist the pagans euchred the Devil out of their souls.
The Eucharist was a human sacrifice. The devotees groveling in abject superstition, offered up their Christ on the reeking, blood-stained altar, and ate his flesh and drank his blood to wash their sins away. At the twelfth general council of the Church, the bread and wine was made the flesh and blood of Christ, and at the Council of Trent they added the soul. So at the orgies, the depraved devotee destroyed both the body and soul of his savior by casting him into his carrion carcass, into that charnel house, into that cavernous and loathsome inferno, from which there is no escape, there to rot and disintegrate and forever die. Thus they subjected their savior to the foulest method of annihilation to save their worthless souls from Hell.
At the Passover the Jews sacrificed over 250,000 lambs to propitiate some blood-loving god. The altars and courts of the Temple ran red with the life blood of these innocent creatures. And certain beasts still sing: “And sinners plunged beneath that flood lose all their guilty stains.” “Such a blood-sacrifice is unworthy of any people except the worshippers of some heathen devil-god in darkest Africa.” – Mystic Christianity, 65.
When Richard, Robert, Sarah and Isabella Bartlett, at Lincoln, England, in 1521, expressed their opinions too freely on religious matters, they were burned at the stake by Bishop John Longland, but they were a pestiferous and seditious lot. They even objected to eating the male emblems, or images of the male, on communion day, and these double-dyed heretics denied the real presence of either Christ or Priapus in the images.
Here is what Taine says as to this affair: “The Bishops had received the right of imprisoning without trial laymen suspected of heresy, and the jurisdiction of all crimes, offenses and sins was given to the ecclesiastical tribunals. They burned Lord Cobham alive. With what shamelessness this power was transformed into a vehicle for extortions. A man begins to think when he is thus downtrodden. He asks himself if it is really by divine dispensation that mitred thieves thus practice tyranny and pillage. He wants to know if they themselves practice the regularity that they impose on others, and he learns strange things. Cardinal Wolsey writes to the Pope that both the secular and regular priests were in the habit of committing atrocious crimes, for which, if not in orders, they would have been promptly executed. A priest convicted of incest with the prioress of Kilbourn was condemned to carry a cross in a procession and pay a fine of 3s and 4p. In the reign of Henry VII the gentlemen and farmers of Carnarvonshire laid a complaint accusing the clergy of systematically seducing their wives and daughters. The Holy Father Prior of Maiden Bradley hath but six children, and but one daughter married yet of the goods of the monastery, trusting shortly to marry the rest. The royal visitors found concubines in the secret apartments of the Abbots. At the nunnery of Sion the confessors seduced the nuns and absolved them at the same time. There were convents, Burnett tells us, where all the recluses were found pregnant.” – Taine’s English Literature, 2-18.
