  Could someone post the author/title of the Marjoe book(s)?

  Also, does anyone have the address of Prometheus books? (I'd like to
get a look at the 'Holy Horrors' book.)

   

   Thanks,

Oh gee...Is satanism fun...hmm...well now..if you have a religion..it might
as well be *fun* right guys???

If your looking for fun...make your religion women...or the tv...
One does not join a religion to make life easier on himself...one joins a
religion so he can bitch at the other religions...well, just a thought.

(good points Semhaza)
Minor benefit:

I would make the point that if one "moves in Satanist circles" you will meet
some very interesting people that you would not otherwise have the opportunity
to interact with. 
It is a sort of "freemasonry" I suppose.
Then again, I would imagine Bahais, Moslems and (yes even) fundies have this 
sort of social phenomenon.
I suppose it all depends who you would rather hang around with.

Date: Wed, 18 Nov 1992 23:04:30 GMT
Organization: University of Louisville

I'm fed up with all the complaints and criticisms, both on and off
the Net, for my chosen religion. Not fundies bashing, but
primarily atheists & related types saying "If you worship Satan,
you must believe in _The Bible_ and all the teachings of Xianity
[when has the teachings of Xianity had anything to do with _The 
Bible_?]. You must acknowledge that God is the greater deity, and
you are going to Hell, and Jesus was part of the Trinity, blah,
blah, blah. Why do you want to give all the glory to God, you're
defeating your own purpose?" 

I could use logic to explain my position, but you know athiests, 
they have their faith and "know" what's Right  :)

So instead I want to try something different. I want to be 
something else besides a Satanist. One little problem:  I need a
good symbol. Are there any gods, or other appropriate beings, who
would be good for representing:  

     Night
     Death
     The bestial side of humanity
     Worldly power
     Love (for your own side)
     Sex
     Equality
     Knowledge, reason, enlightenment
     Change (e.g. overturning the status quo)
     Dualism

That's all I can think of for now. If anyone comes up with a
suitable god, I guess I'll switch over. Otherwise, I'll have to
start practicing Black Masses in order to justify my continued
existence, and I would so hate to go to all the trouble of 
becoming a defrocked priest.

In that case, Satanism is a combination compass and helicopter. Shows ya

As for the non-existent cross-references; a couple of the earlier articles
have them; Steve Baker's TheGuide! software can manage them, but (I think) we
decided that non-existent x-refs area BAD THING.  So if it doesn't exist,
you're free to ignore it.  Now we're making sure that there aren't any
articles with non-existent xrefs.  The way it should work is that if a new
article xrefs another, the target of the xref is modified to xref the new
article as well (two-way xreffing).

The script'd probably work, depends on how much I need support librarys...
Probably would need a bit of editing though. But even if it did work, what
use would it be, I don't think there's a AmigaGuide reader for 1/2 OS...
The script I'll be making won't do anything but parse the *.new files into

I just completed version 1.5 of AmiGuide which does hypertext style cross
referencing, has a slightly enhanced interface, and fixes several bugs in
reading the articles.

My search feature left something to be desired, so I spent most of tonight
trying out different ideas, and have finally opted to use more of a
database approach to storing information about the author, title, etc..
This will allow a much more flexible Index and allow me to add some other
features I thought of.  I hope to get 2.0 ready within the next two weeks
or so.  (Perhaps before Thanksgiving.)

Osma, I wish you luck in your ARexx version.  ARexx is my language of choice
and I have written lots of BBS games with it, but I have never tried to
create a graphic interface with it.  Actually I have a rough version of
AmiGuide written in ARexx, but I didn't get far when I realized that the
GUI was essential, and switched to CanDo (which does have a lot overhead,
but I don't mind.)  I will be VERY interested in seeing what it looks like.
I just wrote a small little ARexx macro that removes CR's from text files,
and it is very slow - I wish I had an ARexx compilor.

Take it easy froods,
