To: alt.magick.tyagi,talk.religion.misc,alt.satanism,alt.pagan.magick,alt.occult.methods,alt.pagan.magick From: satanservice.org@boboroshi (SOD of the CoE) Subject: The Apocrypha by John A. De Vito Date: Thu, 06 Mar 2003 04:52:09 GMT 50030305 VII gothicjon@yahoo.com (Gothic Jon): > My highest recommendation goes to The Apocrypha by John A. De Vito. (potentially quite interesting) fiction, not practical occultism. >The novel is a telling of the more common biblical tales and more. It >begins by telling us how God, Satan and the angels came to be, how >they came to this universe, created man, etc. It goes to the time of >Christ, the Inquisition and ends with a future prophesy. The twist? >It is the Devil's story. He is the good guy, and God is portrayed as >evil. It is not, however, a satanic novel. sounds like something for alt.satanism. thanks. >This book is made from a manuscript the author claims to have found >hidden in the basement of his grandfathers/uncles house. He claims >that this scripture was written by an ex-priest who had been visited >by the devil, and that the devil told him these stories as to the >true origins of mankind and how the devil and god came to be enemies. keen. >The manner in which this book is written gives me a lot to think >about. So if it is all fiction or if it has a basis for truth, the >ideas put forward alone are worth having a look. again, it sounds like an entertainment or an experimental philosophy more than something to do with practical occultism, so I'm redirecting this to followups more relevant to that. >This is an amazing book. Both the story and philosophy are so real >and humanistic. I finished it and am re-reading it with a >highlighter. The tale in itself is incredible and a great vehicle for >the wisdom it conveys. thanks for the mention. >For a synopsis of the book, look here (may have to past it in your >browser: > > http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=2ZSPSCVFJD&isbn=059525070X&itm=1 > > If you've read it and want to chat, please contact me or start a > thread. I'm dying to discuss it with somebody! blessed beast! boboroshi at-sign satanservice.org: Satanic Outreach Director Church of Euthanasia: http://www.churchofeuthanasia.org/ TOKUS WEBLINKS: http://dmoz.org/Bookmarks/B/boboroshi Ninth Scholar's Library (Satanism Archive): http://www.satanservice.org/
