Another boycott that ought to be a swimming success (not): Don Wildmon and co. don't want their anyone's children 'exposed' to Desperate Housewives. Apparently, we adults who enjoy television can't be trusted to make decision about what our children watch, so the American Family Association has appointed itself to make sure I won't expose my kids to any TV that isn't Jesus-approved. But Jesus isn't raising my kids, so I figure he doesn't get a vote. Sorry, Don.

Here's an interesting conspiracy theory: elite secret solcieties are trying to destroy the Constitution and create a "New World Order." Who are these powerful, elite rulers? They're Wiccans, pagans, Santeros and the CHurch of Satan. (Not of who make up any portion of America's ruling class, which is almost invariably white, Christian, and filthy rich.) It seems the only person NOT involved in this galactic conspiracy is the writer himself.

The funniest bit is where the author finds fault in the 'secret societies' for thinking they are elite and superior, and praises the 'Christians for being...elite and superior for being the only ones who know the 'truth.' In the end, I did get a good laugh at the image of the the Pope leading the Bohemian Grovers in a rendition of the Wiccan Goddess Chant. Which makes me think if I were ever to found a secret cult for purposes of world domination, I'd call it, I don't know, how about "Southern Baptists?"

Awesome news: Weiser Antiquarian Books finally has an online catalogue. The list, to be the first of several, features rare Crowley and Thelema-related books and manuscripts, including signed items and correspondence.
