Description
In your 1/18 reply to Triple Six's 1/13 message to you, you quote his statement, "Dr. Aquino states that the 'third Reich's dynamism got out of hand, leading it to embark on irrational and destructive foreign invasions...'" and Triple Six's commentary, and you respond, "Yes, but can't you see that Aquino's statement is rather puzzling? Aquino tries to distinguish between the Third Reich's "dynamism and life-worship" on the one hand, and its racism and "crude xenophobia" on the other hand.
The Temple of Set's degree system is not "pretentious" as Mr. Mowry would have his readers believe. This system as it was conceived is a measurement of one's initiatory achievements, and its design reflects levels of being that are attainable by those who are willing to expend the effort required for Self-development. In theory, this degree system cannot be pretentious. In practice however, it can be abused by both the institution that recognizes such achievements and by the individual.
The Temple of Set is an initiatory organization, dedicated to the initiation and growth of its members. That dedication to initiation, to the philosophy of Xeper, and to Set, is represented by our primary symbol, the Pentagram of Set (a point-down pentagram within a circle). To help our members identify each other so we can work together, and to help them identify which level of initiation has been achieved by each other, at formal gatherings we wear this symbol on different colored medallions, normally worn on necklaces of some kind.
