I was simply attempting to return this list to one of its primary
functions: the analysis/categorization of various belieph systems. This
of course requires the membership to be able to view the foundational
documents of these systems. Of particular interest seems to be the
cutting edge magickal discipline extant, the Chaos Magickal system,
since they seem to view the provisional adoption of belief as a tool by
means of which to, by the technique of imprinting, accomplish
preselected purposes consonant with the selected belief in question, to
be discarded one the purpose is attempted or achieved, much as has
been advocated by published authors in the field of memetics (cf.
Richard Brodie's level 3). If instead, this list, under the influence of
certain infected and vociferous posters, has itself been captivated in a
memetic thrall and as a result has morphed into a dogmatic
antigovernment screed list regarding any and all current and recent
events, of course, this (and any other memetically inspired endeavors)
are of course futile and destined to ignominious failure. If such is
indeed the case, please advise.
