occultist, and I have done MUCH research regarding the topic. One
Clarification before we all go to E-mail on this one though, and thwap me with
a carp if you are just using the reference to piss off and take advantage of
the slight knowledge possessed by MOST Christians, but I must say, as I have
Time and time again, CTHULU DOES NOT EXIST! I love the writings of H.P.
Lovecraft as much as the next gothic horror fan, but to take the Cthulu Mythos
or the fictional Necronomicon as factual occultic texts is ludicrous. Cthulu is
a composite character born out of ancient Sumerian legend, and of Mr.
Lovecraft's own deathly fear of the creatures of the sea. A supposedly serious
Satanist wrote a guideline for worshipping this fictional being, and the most
dedicated of actual occultists take references to Cthulu as the writings of the
inexperienced or unread students, or perhaps just someone who read one too many
comic books. If anyone wishes SERIOUS discussion of ACTUAL Occultic
phenomenon, please E-mail me at CRF_BROWNJT@***.CUIS.edu
