One of my favorite vices happens to be reading about the occult. As a staunch atheist, perhaps it’s a morbid preoccupation. I don’t believe a single word of it, but I do find it fascinating. Honestly, a lot of the occult are systems of beliefs that had to “go underground” as a result of the oppressive regime of early growing Christianity. In short, Christianity sent underground the very thing they sought to eliminate completely. Most occultists hid within the rank and file of the pious, and I’m sure the same is true today, despite the liberal social climate. If I could go back in time I would seek the source of the Voynich Manuscript. Talk about one curious tome. The writings, to this day, have remained un-deciphered. It is seated flatly besides grimoires detailing how to summon demons and describing their attributes and personalities, and what conjuring them might bring you.
