description: It would be easy to write pages in praise of Crowley on Christ but 'good wine needs no bush'; here is a treasury of Aleister Crowley's wit wisdom and criticism which even if it was the only book its author had written would suffice to rebut the slander that Crowley was a pleasure-seeking fraud whose occultism was no more than making a religion out of his weakness.Originally entitled The Gospel According to St Bernard Shaw this work was intended as a destructive critique of Bernard Shaw's Androcles and the Lion but as Crowley wrote it became transformed into a detailed intensely readable and most amusing analysis of the Life of Christ of the Gospels and of Christianity itself - a definitive study of the orthodox religion of Europe and North America from the point of view of Crowleyan magick.
