This talk may not be for everyone. I would recommend it for former Christians or those who have come from any fundamentalist religious upbringing, or those who find themselves currently asking questions, deconstructing faith, and seeking alternative answers. Who has read the entire Bible? Has anyone memorized the Bible? What would happen if someone knew this whole spiritual text in both Hebrew and Greek? What if you had read every theological book you've been meaning to get to? What would be the end result of all this? [Audio upload from previously recorded livestream]

Discussing common misconceptions and superstitious fears around the LBRP i.e. the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram (also Hexagram), one of the most widely known and widely practiced foundational rituals for initiates and adepts alike. I discuss what this ritual actually does (not comprehensively, but one of the main things it does, anyhow), why to perform it over a committed period of time and what it is for.

Is there only "One True God?" Are gods even real? Why are there so many different deities across world religions? Why devote oneself to a deity? What is sex magic? What is raising sexual energy? What is the purpose or intent behind any of this? [This episode is uploaded audio from a recent livestream].
