California mayor charged with acting as illegal agent for China - ABC News
- bribed an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) agent in connection with a plot to target U.S.-based practitioners of Falun Gong — a spiritual practice banned in the PRC

god debunked sex magick and dionysian cults in like 1500 bc. the canaanites worshipped baal via ritual sex, and, if we believe in the book of kings, god called it an abomination

hence i do not take any kind of magdalen manuscript / "jesus did sex magick with mary" seriously

using sex as worship causes all kinds of problems. some catholic priest abusers justified their abuses with some pseudo-spiritual nonsense. everyone thinks they can handle it. everyone thinks they're the exception. osho, sogyal rinpoche, etc. i doubt it bro. you're just regressing

pope benedict xvi addresses this magnanimously in Deus Caritas Est. eros is meant to be refined. one argument for this view is the treatment of the temple prostitutes, which today is the treatment of those abused by false gurus.

"Indeed, the prostitutes in the temple, who had to bestow this divine intoxication, were not treated as human beings and persons, but simply used as a means of arousing “divine madness”: far from being goddesses, they were human persons being exploited. An intoxicated and undisciplined eros, then, is not an ascent in “ecstasy” towards the Divine, but a fall, a degradation of man."
