Title: The Lovecraft Code
Post by: Prelate Diogenes Shandor on February 19, 2009, 02:11:48 AM
You people realize that "Yog-Sothoth" is supposed to be Je*ovah, right?

I realized this one day while reading a book about ancient egypt, and I noticed that the name that the Egyptians used to refer to the Hebrew God was "Yabo-Sabaho" (which sounds suspiciously familiar, doesn't it), and that this was explained, in a footnote as being a corruption of one of the Hebrew names for God. I did some more research and found that this was, indeed, a corruption of the phrase "YHV*-Sabaoth"*("J*hovah, lord of Hosts"). This sounds very similar, and I don't think that its a coincidence :fnord:
...And now you know the rest of the story.







*Pronounced "săb-ōth", see http://www.answers.com/topic/sabaoth (http://www.answers.com/topic/sabaoth)

I read this thread's title as "The Uncle BadTouch Code" and I was more than a little confused.

:lulz: The Uncle BadTouch Code is "Old enough to bleed, old enough to breed".

Injokes about Uncle BadTouch and namedropping the current pariah while ignoring the OP.
This thread sucks. and not because of the OP.

If you have to talk about DK please use one of the many threads that are already about him.

I was hoping this was going to be a parody of the DaVinci Code, actually.

Well, whining about it everywhere is totally an effective way to solve that problem.

Question: since, as we established in another thread, Yog-Sothoth was also Chorozon....does this mean Thelema is nothing more than some huge Christian joke on the occult community, with Aleister Crowley as its mastermind, and Kenneth Grant as its unwitting tool?

Sounds like something Crowley would do...

I got a Lovecraft Code for ya:

Herbert West is secretly an alien representative of our new changeling overlords. There's only three of them, but they're everywhere! And they look like that guy from ConAir!

NICHOLAS CAGE IS THE ANTI-MALACLYPSE!

-toa,
too many anti-christs
