<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">A Faustian Pact is a link and bargain between a human and Satan or a lesser demon. The latter offers specific services and fulfills the individual human's wish or desire in compensation of consuming the said human's soul after the contract is completed.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">The demon might consume the human's soul, after fufilling the wishes of the human, at even the cost of their life.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">To fulfill something tantalising and difficult to accomplish, such as a satisfying revenge, a human is<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;"> required to give up their soul as payment.</span></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">It is also understood that some individuals make this type of pact just as a sign of recognising the Devil as their master, in exchange for nothing.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">The pact can be oral or written. An oral pact is made by means of invocations, conjurations, or rituals to attract the demon. Once the conjurer thinks the demon is present, he/she asks for the wanted favour and offers his/her soul in exchange, and no evidence is left of the pact; but according to some witch trials and inquisitions that were performed, even the oral pact left evidence, namely the diabolical mark, an indelible mark where the marked person had been touched by the Devil to seal the pact. The mark could be used as a proof to determine that the pact was made. It was also believed that on the spot where the mark was left, the marked person could feel no pain. A written pact consists in the same forms of attracting the demon, but includes a written act, usually signed with the conjurer's blood (although sometimes was also alleged that the whole pact had to be written with blood). Forms of these include contracts or simply signing your name into Satan's Red Book. The Malleus Maleficarum discusses several alleged instances of pacts with the Devil, especially concerning women. It was considered that all witches and warlocks had made a pact with a demon, especially with Satan.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">According to demonology, there is a specific month, day of the week, and hour to call each demon, so the invocation for a pact has to be done at the right time. Also, as each demon has a specific function, a certain demon is invoked depending on what the conjurer is going to request.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">In the narrative of the Synoptic Gospels, Jesus is offered a series of bargains by the Devil, in which He is promised worldly riches and glory in exchange for serving the Devil rather than God. After Jesus rejects the Devil's temptation, He embarks upon his journey as the Messiah.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Over the years the original medieval Templars became tainted with Islamic mysticism, and Gnosticism was embraced by some while i<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">n Palestine. They became further contaminated by a sect known as the Assassins. The Order of Knights Templar inevitably degenerated, and some are believed to have engaged in the practice of Phallicism, or sex worship, and Satanism - venerating Baphomet, the idol of Luciferians. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: black; font-family: inherit; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white;">The crime of sodomy was eventually a rite of Templar initiation. Such masonic ritual is Luciferian worship, despite their very clever attempts to hide this fact. The Grand Master at the time - when King Philip IV of France tried and executed key members - was named Jacques de Molay. Since de Molay was Grand Master of the Knights Templar, it can be assumed he was also involved in these satanic and homosexual acts. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">Baphomet (from Medieval Latin Baphometh, Baffometi, Occitan Bafometz) is a term originally used to describe an idol or other deity that the Knights Templar were accused of worshipping, and that subsequently was incorporated into disparate occult and mystical traditions. It appeared as a term for a pagan idol in trial transcripts of the Inquisition of the Knights Templar in the early 14th century. The name first came into popular English usage in the 19th century, with debate and speculation on the reasons for the suppression of the Templars.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">Since 1856, the name Baphomet has been associated with a "Sabbatic Goat" image drawn by Eliphas Levi which contains binary elements representing the "sum total of the universe" (eg male and female, good and evil etc.). Baphomet, of course, is principally associated with diabolism due to the adoption of it as a symbol by the Church of Satan.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Aleister
Crowley was initiated into Freemasonry on 8 October 1904, presumably
passed the following month, and raised on 17 December 1904. He was the
Secretary of Quatour Coronati Lodge. Crowley had already been initiated
into an irregular form of Scottish Rite Masonry in Mexico City in 1900
and this ultimately led to his plethora of high degree systems. This
included both the systems of Memphis and Mizraim and the Antient and
Primitive Rites. Details of this can be found in C<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">rowley’s
own <i>Confessions</i>. This is turn led to his contact with Theodore Reuss
and the OTO. which, as history has shown, had a profound affect and was
among the most important moves in Crowley’s life. Reuss was associated
with the degree collector McBlain Thomson, which led Crowley to contact
with Spenser Lewis of AMORC among others. Crowley eventually distanced
himself from Thomson and purged OTO to a great degree of its
infringements on regular Masonry, but the stigma was attached and the
charges rightly and wrongly of his activities as a clandestine Mason
linger.<br />

United Grand Lodge of England, on the other hand, has a committee that
judges whether a person was ever a Freemason whenever there is a
question of legitimacy. They have deemed Aleister Crowley not to be a
Mason based on their judgement of his “character” in spite of the fact
that they now recognise the Lodge into which he was initiated, whereas
they recognise Mozart as a Freemason even though the Strict Observance
to which Mozart belonged has at no time ever been considered regular by
the United Grand Lodge of England. In the United States such matters are
determined by Masonic code and such problems never arise.</span></div>

the work of its subordinate bodies is considered regular. American
Freemasons can feel confident that with the recognition of the Grand
National Lodge of France and its dependent body Anglo Saxon #103,
Aleister Crowley’s mother lodge, Crowley’s initiation, passing and
raising as Freemason was fully regularised and is technically recognised
by Masonic code in every United States jurisdiction.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Aleister Crowley, born Edward Alexander Crowley in Warwickshire in 1875, was the self-proclaimed “Wickedest Man in the World” and the “Great Beast 666.” He also considered himself to be the “avatar of the Age of Horus” which was supposedly a 2000-year-old aeon, beginning in 1904, that would supplant Christianity with “Crowlianity.” Crowley had rebelled against a strict religious upbringing and was thus initiated into the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in 1898, after leaving Cambridge University. He left the Order after a row with its founders and then travelled to Mexico, India and Ceylon, where he was introduced to yoga and Buddhism which replaced his interest in the occult until an experience in Cairo in April 1904. Crowley was asked by his wife, Rose, to perform an esoteric ritual as an experiment. During the ceremony, she entered a trance-like state and became the medium for the words of a communicator. <i>“They are waiting for you,”</i> she said to Crowley. <i>“They,”</i> she said, being Horus, the god of war and the son of Osiris, according to the beliefs of ancient Egypt. The communicator told Crowley to be at his desk in his hotel room between noon and one o’clock on three specific days. He agreed and in these periods he wrote, via automatic writing, a document called <i>The Book of the Law</i>. This tome spoke of a race of supermen and condemned the traditional Judeo-Christian religions, pacifism, democracy, compassion and humanitarianism.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><i>“Let my servants be few and secret: they shall rule the many and the known,”</i> the communicator revealed. The message continued: </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<i style="background-color: black; font-family: inherit; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white;">“We have nothing with the outcast and the unfit; let them die in their misery. For they feel not. Compassion is the vice of kings; stamp down the wretched and the weak: this is the law of the strong: this is our law and the joy of the world. … Love one another with burning hearts; on the low men trample in the fierce lust of your pride, in the day of your wrath. … Pity not the fallen! I never knew them. I am not for them. I console not; I hate the consoled and the consoler. … I am unique and conqueror. I am not of the slaves that perish. Be they damned and dead. Amen. … Therefore strike hard and low, and to hell with them, master. … Lurk! Withdraw! Upon them! This is the law of the Battle of Conquest: thus shall my worship be about my secret house. … Worship me with fire and blood; worship me with swords and with spears. Let the woman be girl with a sword before me: let blood flow in my name. Trample down the heathen; be upon them, O warrior, I will give you their flesh to eat. … Sacrifice cattle, little and big; after a child … kill and torture; spare not; be upon them!”</span></i></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">The same communicator confirmed that Crowley was the “Beast 666” who had come to destroy Christianity, something his mother had told him earlier in his life. Crowley apparently tried to ignore what he had written with his guided hand, but it would not go away, and from 1909 on he began to take it very seriously. He said: </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><i style="background-color: black;">“After five years of folly and weakness, miscalled politeness, tact, discretion, care for the feeling of others, I am weary of it. I say today: to hell with Christianity, Rationalism, Buddhism, all the lumber of the centuries. I bring you a positive and primeval fact, Magic by name; and with this I will build me a new Heaven and new Earth. I want none of your faint approval or faint dispraise; I want blasphemy, murder, rape, revolution, anything, bad or good, but strong.”</i></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">In 1898 Crowley had joined the Order of the Golden Dawn where he made the acquaintance of his temporary mentor, MacGregor Mathers, leader of the occult group. Taking on the name of Brother Perdurabo (<i>“I will endure”</i>) and beginning his experiments with drugs, Crowley’s voracious bisexuality and his interests in the darker forces gave him a sinister reputation. He was very much a figure of decadence who loathed Christianity. The Golden Dawn taught a form of magic that was derived from the Kaballah and Rosicrucianism. There are also certainly similarities to Freemasonry and Theosophy. However, the magic espoused by the Order of the Golden Dawn soon proved to be insufficient for Aleister Crowley who was convinced that more potent magic could be harnessed through sex and drugs.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Crowley left his former tutor, MacGregor Mathers, a broken man as he embarked on a psychic war against him. They both conjured up demons to attack the other. The violent eruption concluded with Crowley claiming that Mathers was killed in a magical duel by a vampire he had conjured up. The would-be usurper proved to be too perverted and bizarre for the Order and was cast out. He formulated his own ideas, seeking aid from what he termed the Secret Chiefs (supposedly divine beings with supernatural intellects). The revelation that came to him in Cairo was via a demon named Aiwaz.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Crowley welcomed the First World War as necessary to sweep away the old age and usher in the new one. After going public with his revelations, he was made head of the German-based Ordo Templi Orientis that he had joined in 1912. The OTO emphasis on sexual magic was precisely what Crowley had been searching for. He founded his cult of Thelema in Sicily in 1920, but was expelled in 1923 amid accusations of, among other things, blood drinking, drug taking, and child sacrifice. He is known to have favoured the German war effort during the Second World War and, whilst abroad, once notoriously wrote in <i>The Fatherland</i>: <i>“The sovereignty of England must be destroyed once and for all. England must be divided between the Continental Powers. She must be a mere province, or better still, colony of her neighbours, France and Germany.”</i></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">The major axioms of Satanism as it would later develop in the 1960s were contained in <i>Liber Legis</i>, or <i>The Book of the Law</i>. The credo of the book was summed up in the now infamous phrase <i>“Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.”</i> Crowley’s next important literary contribution was <i>The Equinox</i> (1909). Many of the ideas contained in this latter work became the basis for modern Satanism. Weighing 3.5 lb per volume, these were the journals of his newly formed Order of the Silver Star aka Argenteum Astrum. In 1929 came Crowley’s <i>Magick in Theory and Practice</i>. His American publishers, Dover, made a selling point of the claim that the book contains Crowley’s admission that he himself carried out ritual killings of children, a point not lost on a certain Henry Bibby at the end of the century. Having recommended to his readers the choice of <i>“a male child of perfect intelligence,”</i> Crowley later acknowledges that some of his acolytes might be squeamish when it comes to ritual sacrifice and offers the following conscience clause: <i>“Those magicians who object to the use of blood have endeavoured to replace it with incense … But the bloody sacrifice, though more dangerous, is more efficacious; and for nearly all purposes human sacrifice is best.” </i>Crowley offered no comforting disclaimers. He described his opus as a course of training to help people from all walks of life <i>“fulfill themselves perfectly.”</i> And he promises that <i>“the student will discover … a practical method of making himself a magician.”</i></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Within the same work, Crowley makes reference to unspecified progressive forms of blood sacrifice and he advocates self-mutilation, the offering of blood and virginity, and animal sacrifice by crucifixion. Crowley notoriously baptised a frog and called it “Jesus Christ” and then crucified it. This was in 1916, while living in New Hampshire, USA, during his induction ceremony to raise himself to the rank of magus.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">The remainder of Crowley’s life is a long legacy of perversion and evil. He believed that degrading sexual practice and drug use destroyed the consciousness of any sense of morality. This in turn enabled the consciousness, deprived of any sense of “ought” or “law,” to come under the influence of powerful supernatural beings.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Former Labour prospective politician and National Children’s Home employee, David Hallam, commenting of Crowley’s opus, said: <i>“People who are inadequate might pick up something like Crowley’s Magick in Theory and Practice and believe that they can control peoples’ lives by using magic, believing that if they do this to a child, they will have power. I cannot understand why anybody would want to publish a book advocating the ritual slaughtering of children. No doubt there’s a massive market for occult material. But publishers must remember that these are often handbooks. People are picking them up for a purpose.”</i></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Jerry Johnston in <i>The Edge of Evil</i> (after the <i>Enyclopedia of Occultism and Parasychology</i>) has it that Crowley’s own son died a ritual death.</span></div>

John Symonds, Crowley’s biographer, recalled that <i>“he merely attracted a host of evil spirits.”</i> Richard Cavendish observed in <i>A History of Magic</i> that <i>“though he was an almost forgotten man at his death, interest in Crowley has revived and he has more followers now than in his lifetime.”</i></span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">One of the delusions that will need to be established at the outset is the lie that leading Satanists do not believe in or truly worship the Devil. Anton LaVey viewed Satan as a true entity that he absolutely worshipped before his death. LaVey deceived a lot of people who joined the Church of Satan by claiming that Satan only represented the repressed forces of nature, but was not a real entity. Interviews with former Charles Manson family member Susan Atkins resulted in Atkins blowing the lid off of LaVey’s lie.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">As a former associate of Anton LaVey’s, who danced for him and spent personal time with him before joining the Manson family, Atkins was privy to conversations with LaVey before he became popular. Atkins revealed repeatedly that, while LaVey promoted a watered down, almost palatable form of Satanism to the ignorant masses whom he deceived, he acknowledged the exact opposite to her and to his inner core of Satanists within the Church of Satan. Susan Atkins revealed that LaVey told her emphatically, while she was in his home, that they truly worshipped Satan as a real entity and as the one who began the initial rebellion against God.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Atkins also stated:</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><i>“Anton told me that as a Satanist he does believe in the God of the Bible but he refused to worship Him and made a conscious decision to worship Satan instead.”</i> (Susan Atkins interviewed by Joe Schimmel).</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">There are pictures of Atkins with LaVey in his ritual chamber when she associated with the Church of Satan. LaVey was aware that few people were ignorant enough to truly turn their lives over to Satan, knowing that they would not only be allowing themselves to be deceived by their worst enemy, but that they would spend eternity in the fiery torments of hell.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">LaVey, therefore, presented a sensitive, user-friendly form of Satanism in the hope that it might appeal to the masses he was seeking to deceive. LaVey sought to put a spin on Satanism as a kinder and gentler form of Devil worship claiming that Satan merely represents a force in nature, and that, rather than Satanists’ sacrificing animals and little children, they are animal activist who love children. All of this was done to garner unwitting recruits. First and foremost, one should never trust a Satanist. Satanist’s view lying to be among their highest virtues. </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">LaVey and other Satanists serve the one whom Jesus Christ repudiated as <i>“The father of lies.”</i> (John 8: 44). And, of course, it would be entirely appropriate for the father of lies to cloak his religion in non-reality. Satan has long been about deception and has successfully deceived many recruits into believing that they are simply worshipping a symbol rather than a reality. Satan relishes in such ignorance. Atkins’ testimony that LaVey was deliberately duping Satanists in the outer circle is corroborated by evidence from LaVey’s himself.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">LaVey let his guard down when responding to other Satanists who considered him “not extreme enough.” LaVey, while in a defensive mode, admitted that the image he was presenting publicly was deceptive, declaring:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><i>“If they’re at all intelligent [other true Satanists] … they’ll realise that there’s only so much I can say publicly … I will not advance things in print which make my position untenable … How long would the Church of Satan have lasted if I hadn’t appeased and outraged in just the right combination? It required a certain amount of discretion and diplomacy to balance the outrage.”</i> (<i>Lucifer Rising</i>, page 133).</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Above is Anders Behring Breivik (born 13 February 1979) who is the perpetrator of the Norway massacre. On 22 July 2011, he killed eight people by setting off a van bomb amid government buildings in Oslo, then shot dead sixty-nine members of a Workers' Youth League (AUF) summer camp on the island of Utøya. Breivik, who supports Israel and far right Zionism, is seen in his attire as a Freemason and in another image giving a Communist/Marxist clenched-fist salute. He was also obsessed with Knights Templar symbolsim and adopted some of it for his own purpose. Early reports described him as a paranoid schizophrenic before he was finally diagnosed as having a narcissistic personality disorder. These anomalies are explained when the satanic delusion is applied to him.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Anton Szandor LaVey founded the Church of Satan in 1966 in San Francisco, California, on Walpurgisnacht (April 30th). LaVey identified his particular brand of Satanism in his book The Satanic Bible (1969). A derivative group, and offspring of the Church of Satan, is the Temple of Set founded by Michael Aquino in 1975.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Purposeful deception is needed amongst leading Satanists to enslave those whom they recruit as unscrupulous and unsuspecting pawns who feel more comfortable believing Satan is a symbol for force. Few Satanists realise the evil intentions among the inner core of the cult and how lower initiates are viewed as mere puppets to be used and later discarded. Those in the higher echelon are often aware of the nature of Satan and the demonic realm that they serve. They are often bound and blinded on another level because they have become addicted to the power that Satan deceptively promises. Kenneth Anger, who was a cofounder of the Church of Satan with Anton LaVey, used a similar spin on Satanism, as did LaVey. Kenneth Anger stated in the 1960’s, in his film, Lucifer Rising, that, <i>“Lucifer is the light god, not the Devil.”</i> (Publicity of the jacket for <i>Lucifer Rising</i>). This delusion that Lucifer is really the God of light, and not Satan, should not surprise those familiar with God’s word, which warns that Satan “masquerades” as an “angel of light” to draw the unsuspecting into his evil web. His agents do likewise.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Years later, after Kenneth Anger had deceived multitudes of people into thinking they were worshipping the supposed “light god”, an entity that was not really Satan, Anger “confessed” that Lucifer, whom he worshipped, had always been the historical “Satan.” (<i>Lucifer Rising</i>, page 47). It was too late though for many Satanists who had been deceived. It appears that Marilyn Manson is playing the same mind game with his fans as did LaVey and Anger. Besides following LaVey, who deceived his followers, Manson admitted, <i>“I’ve taken a lot of my inspiration from Kenneth Anger.”</i> Sadly, while the leaders among Satanists realise that Satan is for real, many who swell the ranks of their churches have been duped into believing that they are in some nature religion. They are taught that either a real Satan does not exist, or that hell will not be all that hot. This, of course, is sheer nonsense. </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Anton LaVey himself was severely deceived as he stated in his <i>Satanic Bible</i> that he would reign with Satan in hell. LaVey now realised he was the most deceived of all. The scriptures are clear that hell was created as a place of torment for Satan and his angels. (Matt 25: 40-43). Moreover, God’s Word declares that Satan will be stripped of his power and rendered “weak” and <i>“covered with worms.”</i> Satan will be rendered one of the weakest and most pathetic beings in the universe, an object of ridicule and scorn by those who were deceived by him. Those who have been deceived by him will marvel that this once powerful fallen angel has been rendered powerless and will mock him as a <i>“carcass trodden under foot”</i> in their torment. (Isaiah 14: 9-19). So even leaders in the Church of Satan, who are deceiving their initiates, are themselves deceived, believing that they will have some place of power in hell. As St Paul prophesied:</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><i>“Evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.”</i> (2 Timothy 3: 13)</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Richard Ramirez, known as the night Stalker, was deceived by Anton LaVey’s assertion in the <i>Satanic Bible</i> that Satanists could reign in Hell. Ramirez believed that his human sacrifices to Satan would earn him a place of power in Hell next to Jack the Ripper and other serial killers. Further evidence of what leading Satanists really believe is revealed in admissions made by Lieutenant Colonel Michael Aquino of the United States Army. Aquino was a leader in LaVey’s Church of Satan and was LaVey’s “second-in-command” before he broke off to begin his own satanic order called the Temple of Set. Aquino ended up taking several of LaVey’s followers with him.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">The Temple of Set would eventually attract the likes of Anton LaVey’s daughter Zeena LaVey. So rabid a Satanist is Aquino that he had the number 666 tatooed on his scalp. The Temple of Set proclaims that Set, another name for Satan, is a real entity and is a name for <i>“The oldest known form of the Prince of Darkness.”</i> Aquino seems to have been under the conviction that society had become so jaded that many of those in the outer circle of Satanism were ready to worship Satan as a real entity. Aquino believed it was time for Satan to come out of the closet in all of his naked deformity. Aquino even took the more up front view of Satanism to the television airways where he virtually admitted that Satan is a real entity and that many are in the dark as to whom they are really worshipping, including millions of New Agers. On Oprah Winfrey, Aquino acknowledged that they are following the infernal being that orchestrated the initial rebellion against God, the Creator of the Universe. Aquino admitted to Winfrey and the television audience made up of millions that they are following Satan who initiated the original rebellion against God:</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Aquino went on to describe how they believe that they as Satanists are now becoming gods. This was at the heart of Satan’s initial rebellion and now Aquino was parroting the essence of Satanism, which is a desire to usurp the true and living God’s authority and follow Satan into God realisation. <i>“We are not servants of some God,” </i>declared Aquino, <i>“we are our own gods!”</i> Oprah Winfrey appeared to be shocked to find out that this was exactly what she believed as a New Ager, failing to realise that the New Age movement has it roots in Crowleyite Satanism even as Aquino’s Satanism. It has been established beyond a shadow of a doubt that Crowley was not only a confessed Satanist, but that he was the father of the hippy drug movement and counter-culture from which popular New Age teachings first became entrenched in Western civilisation. Almost gasping for air, Winfrey declared in response to Aquino’s assertion:</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Aquino, without skipping a beat, said <i>“Yes”</i> to Winfrey’s question, implying that New Agers and Satanist are on the same wave length in their rebellion against God and in their quest to achieve god-hood as they follow in Satan’s footsteps. He only clarified that most New Agers are not aware that they have joined a satanic rebellion against God and that Satanists know what is going on. Aquino stated:</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><i>“Yes, except that I would say we [Satanists] have a more precise grasp … We would say that we understand what’s actually happening a little better than many New Agers.”</i></span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Much to Aquino’s chagrin the Temple of Set would find out that even as debauched as the world has become most people are still smart enough not to knowingly serve Satan and end up spending eternity in Hell. After bringing Satan out of the closet the Temple of Set failed to enlist the large amount of recruits they apparently hoped for. In their failure to acquire more recruits they changed their method of evangelism and returned to a formula more in keeping with that of the Church of Satan. Today the Temple of Set, like the Church of Satan, espouses a more palatable seeker sensitive form of Satanism so as not to scare off potential recruits. The result is that Satan is once again cloaked in ambiguity, but the song remains the same as inner circle initiates are deceiving outer circle initiates.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Winfrey was surprised that Aquino, as a confessed Satanist, would try to deny the hard facts of the evil behind Satanism. When Aquino stated that they as Satanists have <i>“nothing to do with evil,”</i> she said:</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Winfrey went on to exclaim:</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><i>“In every state of the nation authorities are investigating some form of what they call satanic activity … Children are telling the same stories about infants being murdered before their eyes in strange devil rituals. The list of bizarre stories goes on and on.”</i></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Not surprisingly, Aquino tried unsuccessfully at this point to put another typical spin on Satanism by claiming that they are not into such things. Even as leading Satanists like to hide the fact that they are truly worshipping Satan so it is that they seek to deny that Satanists sacrifice humans including children. The truth of the matter is that Aleister Crowley, whom Aquino acknowledges had an incredible influence on Aquino and the Temple of Set, not only taught his followers to engage in child sacrifice but admitted to sacrificing scores of children himself. After Aquino made the false claim that Satanists do not really sacrifice children, a law enforcement officer spoke up and stated:</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div>
<span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><i>“To say that there are no bodies and that these [Satanists] are not committing crimes is the farthest from the truth … in every case that I’ve investigated, now extending over two hundred, I have found this particular book [The Satanic Bible].”</i></span></span></div>
<span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">
</span>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">At this point the investigator held up <i>The Satanic Bible</i>. In <i>The Satanic Bible</i>, LaVey proclaimed that he was seeking to <i>“not advance things in print which make my position untenable”</i> lest he find himself behind bars, and further stated that his followers were to commit human sacrifices by proxy:</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><i style="background-color: black;">“We perform human sacrifices, by proxy you might say—the destruction of human beings who would, let’s say, create an antagonistic situation toward us—in the form of curse and hexes, not in actual blood rituals because certainly the destruction of a human being physically is illegal.”</i></span></div>
<div style="display: inline; line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-top: 6px;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Note that the only reason LaVey concedes that he is not publicly advocating actual physical human sacrifice is because it is against the law, implying that if they could get away with it they would do it. In fact, LaVey takes credit for the deaths of Jayne Mansfield and her boy friend and lawyer Sam Brody, stating that it was the result of a ritual curse on Brody, and Mansfield happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. LaVey also believes that he was responsible for the Manson family murders. Manson was heavily influenced by the satanic cult known as the Process Church of the Final Judgement. The Process also acknowledged that Satan is a real entity. Their particular twisted spin in an effort to get unwitting recruits was not to pretend Satan was not a true entity but to claim that Satan was actually a Jesus loving Devil. The Process claimed that they, Jesus and Satan had reconciled and that all would work out well in the end for everyone including Satanists, because Jesus had supposedly forgiven the Devil. Ridiculous as this spin was it proved successful in garnering more than a few recruits. The bodies have piled up and the idea that Satanism is not behind the death of countless multitudes of innocent people is a lie only believed by the incredibly naîve. Manson, who was a confessed Satanist, was responsible of up to thirty-five murders if the admissions of some of his former followers are to believed. Charles Manson, whom Marilyn Manson cites as one of his pre-eminent inspirations and a brilliant philosopher, has stated, <i>“Jesus Christ is for real and so is that other guy [ie Satan].”</i> Charles Manson knows that Satan, whom he serves, is a real entity and has been more candid than has his follower Marilyn Manson. Son of Sam, who was part of a Process coven made up of twenty-two Satanists and connected to several other satanic covens, also murdered several people at the direction of the coven. Richard Ramirez, who followed <i>The Satanic Bible</i> and met with Anton LaVey before his satanic killing spree, killed twenty people. Ramirez even went so far as to torture his victims and made some <i>“swear to Satan.”</i></span></span></div>

<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">On 7 June 2000 the small Italian town of Chiavenna was rocked by the discovery of a gruesome murder in one of its quiet back lanes. The blood-soaked victim, who had been struck with rocks and smashed against a wall before being stabbed nineteen times, was later identified as Sister Maria Laura, the much-loved Mother Superior of the local convent. The brutality of the killing shocked townspeople, and attracted widespread media attention: and with no obvious motive for the murder, rumours soon started to fly. Satanic signs and slogans were found nearby and the killing was blamed on devil worshippers striking a blow against the Catholic Church. On 28 June 2000 three popular teenage girls were arrested.</span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">They were fans of the depraved “entertainer” Marilyn Manson, a member of the Church of Satan, whose lyrics are too blasphemous, hate-filled and obscene to quote on this group. At first the girls’ attitude was arrogant and cold. They refused to speak to the police. But when they eventually began to speak it became apparent that their appalling crime was a premeditated act. Milena, one of the girls, admitted that they had met outside the church one night and cut their hands, drinking the blood while they pledged an oath of eternal loyalty to each other. <i>“We decided to go for a nun,”</i></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Veronica, another of the three girls, told her interrogators, <i>“because she was the opposite of us. We believe in Satan.”</i> The third girl is named Ambra. They beat the nun into unconsciousness with a tile and by beating her head against a stone wall. When that failed, they took out knives and stabbed her to death. But throughout her ordeal, Sister Maria Laura had prayed for her attackers, and promised them that God would forgive them even as she did herself. Armed with these confessions, the carabinieri searched the girls’ homes and found diaries testifying to their obsession with Satanism, and with the lyrics of the degenerate performer and singer Marilyn Manson who cashed-in on the tragedy when touring Italy in February 2001.</span><br />

<i style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">“If having your own opinion makes you evil, then I am evil. … All I say is don’t feel guilty for having emotions like lust, greed and hate - because you are going to have them.”</span></i></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; font-family: inherit; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white;">On 9 August 2001 Ambra had the case against her dismissed on the grounds of diminished responsibility, and was sentenced to three years’ rehabilitation. The other two girls, Milena and Veronica, were found guilty of first degree murder and were each sentenced to eight years and six months. There is a move in Chiavenna to have Sister Maria Laura, who had taught in the town for more than thirty years, beatified.</span></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Aleister Crowley’s satanic religion of Thelema, followed by the birth of modern witchcraft, occult explosion of the 1960s-1970s and the New Age movement of the 1980s-1990s, all share a common heritage from where the current satanic revival has found succour. The formal establishment of the Church of Satan, with such derivatives as the Temple of Set, has certainly played its part. Between Charles Manson, Son of Sam and Richard Ramirez alone we have dozens of murders in the name of Satan.</span></div>
<div style="display: inline; line-height: 19.3199996948242px; margin-top: 6px;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">One could easily add to this list case after case that would fill several books, but the point has more than sufficiently been made for those who will honestly look at the evidence. The most influential and notorious satanic leaders have had a campaign to dupe their followers into becoming unwitting followers of not a symbol, nor an abstract force, but of Satan himself. Not only their own admissions, but the deceptive web they have spun to prey on outer circle initiates, give witness to this fact.</span></span><br />

Kerry Bolton was a former member of the Temple of Set (an offshoot of the Church of Satan) and was briefly secretary for the New Zealand Fascist Union.

This is the man Kevin Chesham, originally of Basildon, Essex, cultivated a friendship with while in New Zealand. Upon his return to the United Kingdom, he and his wife, Beverley Mason, formed an unholy alliance with David Farrant. They met and connived how best to cause me maximum damage. Online they are supported by Anthony Hogg. David Farrant's friend Redmond McWilliams has met Chesham and given him his full support. Farrant's son, Jamie (born 1967), supports them and is a Facebook friend with all the aforementioned. Hogg sought the online friendship of John Pope who has a history of Nazi-Occult activity and is Farrant's longest-serving collaborator and friend. David Farrant, Jamie Farrant, Anthony Hogg and Redmond McWilliams have Pope as their internet friend. David Farrant remains in physical contact with John Pope. Farrant and McWilliams are also in physical contact with Kevin Chesham, who is now permanently based in Dubai. Chesham visits Farrant at his home whenever he is in the UK. They made a pilgrimage to Highgate Cemetery together in May 2013, accompanied by Redmond McWilliams and someone who describes herself as "Della Farrant."</span></span></div>

The first time was in 1980.<span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">I met Jean-Paul Bourre thirty-six years ago and was not very much impressed by this self-proclaimed Luciferian. I make passing mention of Bourre in two of my books concerning Satanism and the supernatural. The book about Satanism reveals a curse concocted by David Farrant that was sent to Bourre's then girlfriend Nathalie Sarazin. It unimaginatively bore the initials "S M" - quite obviously the handiwork of Farrant. I was unsure at the time as to whether Bourre was also part of this attempt to make it</span><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"> </span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">look as if I had sent the curse. Now I feel confident he was. I spoke with the journalist Nathalie Sarazin after she had broken up with Jean-Paul Bourre, and she confirmed that she had been aware from quite early on that David Farrant was behind the much publicised (in one of Bourre's books) curse. I also provide an image of the curse in <i>From Satan To Christ</i> (1988) and with it a sample of Farrant's handwriting. </span></span></span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">Graphologists who inspected the curse sent to Nathalie Sarazin were certain it was created by the same hand as that revealed on samples of Farrant's handwriting. Graphology/handwriting experts can view the facsimile images in <i>From Satan To Christ</i> which contains the curse Farrant sent to Sarazin across a page and facing it a full page sample of Farrant's handwriting (in a challenge he wrote and sent me).</span></span><br />

<div class="_209g _2vxa" data-block="true" data-offset-key="d0hlr-0-0" data-reactid=".l.1:2.0.$right.0.0.0.0.1.0.0.1.0.$d0hlr" style="direction: ltr; position: relative; text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">On 4 February 2015, The Faustian Circle blog announced at the foot of its article and comments:
</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>"The 200 maximum comments allowed per article has now been reached on this article. You may wish to continue the discussion on the new article."</i>
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">And then proceeded to provide another page and thereby platform for the libellous abuse to continue.
The new page, created on 4 February 2015, declared at its head:
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>"This section is intended to continue the debate."</i>
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">But, of course, there was no debate. Just another platform for David Farrant, Anthony Hogg and Redmond McWilliams (<i>aka</i> "anonymous") to post false and fabricated abuse intended to incite hatred against me. Everything raised on the continuation page, moreover, had been more than adequately covered and dealt with by a rebuttal commentator, <i>ie</i> B.O.S., on the first page containing two hundred comments. Trolls really do like to repeat themselves year in and year out.
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">They collude together in their vendetta because they are exceptionally obsessed and resentful. And they all know each other. Anthony Hogg is restricted to internet contact because he resides in Melbourne, Australia, but all the others have been in personal contact with each other, meeting at Farrant's Muswell Hill Road bedsit in North London when not going on childish jaunts to Highgate Cemetery where they video themselves and have photographs taken pulling asinine expressions.
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">All of them are completely obsessed with the Highgate Vampire case. This is the only subject discussed or commented upon on The Faustian Circle blog. Indeed, this is the only subject the person who runs that blog appears to want to have discussed. When the initial article is read it is found couched in language and terminology that could have been written by Farrant himself. The blogger even adds a forename to my Christian and surname that has never been used by me or anyone else, apart from, of course, Farrant. The plethora of allegations in the article comprise malicious falsehood that the convicted felon David Farrant has been propagating for decades.
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Notwithstanding that Kevin Chesham nowadays disingenuously claims to support Unite Against Fascism (UAF) in a cynical attempt to turn them against me, something UAF would see through in a nanosecond, Anthony Hogg and Redmond McWilliams, coming from a politically far left-wing perspective, are genuinely and vociferously anti-Fascist. Why wouldn't they be? One is mixed race while the other is a pro-active homosexual campaigner. They have nothing to gain by being anything other than anti-Fascist. Yet they are prepared to hypocritically accept a platform provided by The Faustian Circle which is ostensibly pro-Fascist and uses a symbol once the emblem of the pre-war British Union of Fascists and National Socialists. Curiously, this does not bother them in the least.
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Such is the extent of their resentment and hatred against me that they will do and say anything to vent their not inconsiderable vitriol; filling the void in their empty lives with an obsession that has inevitably turned poisonous and pernicious. The question that needs to be addressed is why is The Faustian Circle aiding and abetting these anti-Fascists in their never-ending vendetta?
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Indeed, why would the person running The Faustian Circle (a) refuse to meet me (which would identify The Faustian Circle blogger), (b) refuse to send me an e-mail, as I requested (which would identify his IP) and (c) remain at all times totally anonymous? A growing consensus view points to Kevin Chesham as being one possible culprit. That would make perfect sense because Chesham ticks all the boxes. If it was anyone else it would make no sense as to why I am the only person targeted on the blog that provides a voice for those harbouring enmity toward me.
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">For most of his life Chesham exhibited a strong fascination for Hitler and the Third Reich and the pre-war Blackshirts led by Mosley. He bought books, videos and CDs about both. I knew Kevin Chesham, on and off, for a very long time and believe that the majority of people do not fundamentally change. Following a stroke due to steroid use and a significant period in New Zealand where he became besotted with Kerry Bolton's Nazi-Occult ideological outpourings, it was realised that Chesham had grown far worse. He revealed less and less about himself on the few occasions we had contact, and was clearly up to some kind of skullduggery. Others noticed it, too.
</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Chesham became more and more isolated, managing to later achieve the ultimate ignominy of becoming a mouthpiece for David Farrant, a man he had always previously claimed to despise. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Kevin Chesham ultimately became no different to Farrant and every bit as deceitful. Like Farrant, he sought his fifteen minutes of fame, but never achieved it. He became resentful of those who did, including myself and some of my more successful friends, overlooking the fact that there is a reason for our success; that it was entirely on our own merit. Walking in the footsteps of his Muswell Hill mentor, he decided to do whatever it took to be noticed, including treachery, lying and deceiving.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white; line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white; line-height: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Thus he entered into a Faustian Pact with Farrant. </span></span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I give testament to a refutation of Faustianism, <i>ie</i> a spiritual or intellectual dissatisfaction combined with a desire for power or material advantage. After Johann Faust (c 1480 - c 1538), a German scholar portrayed by Marlowe and Goethe. Faust is the protagonist of a classic German legend. He is a scholar who is highly successful yet dissatisfied with his life, so he makes a pact with the Devil, exchanging his soul for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures. The Faust legend has been the basis for many literary, artistic, cinematic and musical works that have reinterpreted it through the ages. Faust and the adjective "Faustian" imply a situation in which an ambitious person surrenders moral integrity in order to achieve power and success for a delimited term. This is something, as a Christian, I explicitly reject. My critics on The Faustian Circle blog, however, clearly do not.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">What makes them the way they are? Obsession combined with dissatisfaction leading to resentment. In the case of David Farrant I would go even further and identify him as a prime candidate in the sense of making a Faustian Pact at the core of his being, <i>ie</i> his soul, if not actually signing something in his own blood. Farrant says he does not believe in the Devil' existence, but he does believe in (and admits to worshipping on the CD <i>The Devil's Fool</i>) Lucifer. This is semantics because for the Christian they, along with Satan, are all the same evil spirit. </span>Devil is a name commonly given to the fallen angels, who are also known as demons. Lucifer is their chief, as in Matthew 25: 41, <i>"the Devil and his angels."</i> It may be said of this name, as St Gregory says of the word angel, <i>"nomen est officii, non naturæ"</i>- the designation of an office, not of a nature. For the Greek word (from <i>diaballein, "to traduce"</i>) means a slanderer, or accuser, and in this sense it is applied to him of whom it is written <i>"the accuser of our brethren is cast forth, who accused them before our God day and night"</i> (Apocalypse 12: 10). It thus answers to the Hebrew name Satan which signifies an adversary, or an accuser.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The authoritative teaching of the Church on this topic is set forth in the decrees of the Fourth Lateran Council (<i>Firmiter credimus</i>), wherein, after saying that God in the beginning had created together two creatures, the spiritual and the corporeal, that is to say the angelic and the earthly, and lastly man, who was made of both spirit and body, the council continues:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>"Diabolus enim et alii dæmones a Deo quidem naturâ creati sunt boni, sed ipsi per se facti sunt mali."</i> (<i>"The Devil and the other demons were created by God good in their nature but they by themselves have made themselves evil."</i>)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here it is clearly taught that the Devil and the other demons are spiritual or angelic creatures created by God in a state of innocence, and that they became evil by their own act. It is added that man sinned by the suggestion of the Devil, and that in the next world the wicked shall suffer perpetual punishment with the Devil.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I establish the above by way of explanation of my own total refutation of Faustianism.</div>

<br />
The Faustian Circle's article is completely without substance or evidence. It links to the malicious rants of Don Ecker on an American blog and Kevin Chesham on his own blog, both of whom regurgitate libellous poison provided by David Farrant who has been waging a personal vendetta against me since 1970. Farrant's comments on The Faustian Circle are the same copy and pasted misrepresentation he has been repeatedly reproducing on sites since he acquired a computer earlier this century. To those who might not be aware of who he is, David Robert Donovan Farrant (born 23 January 1946) is someone who has lived off state benefits his entire life, and been arrested and charged many times. He was found guilty at London's Old Bailey criminal courts in 1974 of indecency, theft, illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition, threatening police witnesses with voodoo "death dolls," attempting to pervert the course of justice, malicious tomb vandalism and black magic tomb desecration. He was sentenced to four years and eight months imprisonment. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The original blog posted by The Faustian Circle on 18 July 2013 devoted its article to maligning me and is recognisably Farrant's propaganda. Farrant is let off the hook, while I am smeared again and again with unsubstantiated allegations. It, therefore, came as no surprise to receive from Kevin Chesham the very next day a printed-out copy of the online page where I was misrepresented. The blog's article ended with the following statement: <i>"For the record, Kevin Chesham is NOT a member of the Faustian Circle."</i> Nor is anybody else! The Faustian Circle does not exist save on the internet. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These are the accusations made against me on the original blog entry:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>"Manchester is President of the British Occult Society."</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The British Occult Society does not exist. It was formally dissolved in August 1988, and was an investigation bureau which examined occult claims and also researched paranormal phenomena.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>"He was excommunicated from the Old Catholic Church."</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have not been excommunicated from any Church, including the OCC, and nobody has ever claimed to have excommunicated me. This lie is spread by Farrant and further disseminated by Chesham.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>"Manchester was said [by Farrant and latterly Chesham] to have canvassed for the British National Front (NF) in the past, and more recently to have links to the British National Party (BNP)."</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This lie has been peddled over recent years by Farrant and repeated by Chesham. Nobody else has made the allegation which is completely without any substance. I have not supported (nor canvassed on behalf of) any political party at any time. Farrant, on the other hand, switched whatever support he might have garnered at the 1978 General Election from his Wicca Workers Party to the National Front. Kevin Chesham and his wife, Beverley Mason, claimed in front of witnesses, that the pair of them were fully signed-up members of the British National Party and had attended functions.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I do not support political systems <i>per se</i>, and reserve my faith, loyalty and energy for spiritual matters that manifest in the traditional Catholicism I represent as an episcopally consecrated bishop.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheFaustianCycle/"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgcVXhJC3yTb-hKdOs3rS2fOaXunlD9YcUhkZCgU_gq2kARUh8EDQ3v71HCir0KC3VQPt_CErFloHBevaL4LWd-UOLk239LjZpqy5zRYDNL3fOccuhw7GZq_BPzSvSZfneHu7W3XUKD4M/s1600/November-9th-1923.jpg" height="148" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
That blog article disappeared only to be replaced by an even worse one on 9 November 2014. (November 9th was the holiest day in the Reich's calendar following the failed Beer Hall Putsch of 1923 when sixteen Nazis were killed. It was solemnly celebrated every year until the end of the war).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The replacement article accused me of running a "mystic church" and holding views on the death of Jesus Christ that are tantamount to anti-semitism. I am a Catholic who certainly reveres such mystics as St Teresa of Avila and St Francis of Assisi, but I do not hold jurisdiction over a "mystic church."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Likewise, my understanding on the death of Our Lord is commensurate with traditional doctrine.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Faustian Circle, repeating Chesham, claims that I have <i>"a secret room"</i> in my house festooned with <i>"Nazi daggers, regalia" etc</i>. Those visitors who have been to my retreat will attest that I do not have anything of the sort. Among several antique swords, flintlock pistols and other collectables are a few items of militaria from both world wars held onto since my teenage years when it was not uncommon for those born either during or soon after the war to collect such pieces of memorabilia.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
That notwithstanding, it must already be sounding very odd that an apparently Fascist blogger would be criticising me in this way, albeit erroneously, whilst welcoming hateful comments about me from people who hold left-wing views who are vociferously anti-Fascist, and, moreover, praising them with obsequious gratitude for understanding why he had to censor comments detrimental to Farrant.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Things are certainly not what they might at first appear to be where The Faustian Circle is concerned.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>"We do not believe that our Highgate articles are 'libellous' at all, but we consider them to be fair comment backed up by evidence."</i> - The Faustian Circle blog, 20 February 2015</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The article posted by the person behind The Faustian Circle, which initiated a mass of responses, largely from David Farrant, Anthony Hogg and Redmond McWilliams (the last name posts his comments anonymously when not using an absurd, fake name such as "Tim Fogsock"), was gleaned exclusively from David Farrant and Farrant's collaborator Kevin Chesham who put his own spin on matters to garner favour with his Muswell Hill mentor. These people will be examined more closely on a later entry, but for now </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">let's examine The Faustian Circle individual's own article.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Having repeated many false allegations that trace back verbatim, directly or indirectly, to Farrant, The Faustian Circle ends by stating something about me that is borderline accurate:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;">"</span>He is critical of The Faustian Circle, Dr Kerry Bolton (former Secretary of the New Zealand Fascist Union, and former leader of The Thelemic Society and the Order of the Left Hand Path, who is now more interested in Catholicism, Third Positionist Nationalism and Social Credit), Kevin Chesham, David Farrant, John Pope and Anthony Hogg. For the record, some of our members are in contact with the author Dr Kerry Bolton of New Zealand, but Kevin Chesham, David Farrant, John Pope and Anthony Hogg are NOT members of the F.C., although some of our members have read their literature, and also incidentally the books of Sean Manchester.<span style="font-family: inherit;">"</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></i>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Gary-Raikes/560689954066536?fref=ts"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUnvFF28Pm_HIpU5ES7vtU9_lM9DObkx7kT02CrRoR7rd_mHlQfX0O9yhgO8fQsthusnsZ8GCb0H4NKJIhCxmFQXh5pU_MZDyYz5wHqYUF15yQY5NcmNZWcCQeNwZViJgEbhW0EBmYPsQ/s1600/GaryRaikes-TheSun-newspaper.jpg" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The "membership" of The Faustian Circle is so vast that only one person ever clicks on "like" under each and every entry made by The Faustian Circle on Facebook. His name is Bob Fuller who has forty Facebook friends, among them Gary Raikes who in 2012 founded something called "The New British Union" which proclaims itself to be a revival of the pre-war British Union of Fascists and National Socialists, using identical regalia, flags, symbols and uniforms. The New British Union opts for the post-BUF military-style uniform rather than the black fencing-style tunic that preceded it. The military-style uniform was adopted when the British Union of Fascists amended their nomenclature to the British Union of Fascists and National Socialists in 1936. According to the <i>Birmingham Mail</i>, 7 July 2013, <i>"the NBU is a sinister organisation with many members claiming to be pagans or followers of satanic and wiccan cults."</i> A far cry from the pre-war movement founded in 1932 whose leader, Sir Oswald Mosley, declared at the end of the Second World War that Fascism was dead and in later interviews accepted he had made a catastrophic error by adopting the military uniform of 1936. I was a professional photographer in the 1960s and met Sir Oswald and his wife, Lady Diana, on a number of occasions. Sir Oswald definitely eschewed pre-war Fascism, and now described himself as a European Socialist. If one was looking for a continuation of Mosley's movement today, however, one would not turn to the New British Union, which is more a parody of the original, but rather something resembling <i>European Action</i> whose editor, Robert Edwards, has this to say about Fascism:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;">"</span>Fascism in Britain was a peculiar phenomenon of the 1930s. Even left-wing academics have acknowledged this fact and the term 'post-fascist' had entered the political lexicon long ago. However, the word has become a term of abuse, a generic term applied to anything of which left-wing political correctness does not approve. Anyone who adopts this term as a political label today, deserves a heavy dose of political enlightenment because such a posturing is not only inappropriate but it also displays an ignorance of the changing shape and nature of British politics since the Second World War. Sir Oswald Mosley always claimed that he had 'gone beyond fascism' as he emerged onto the political scene after internment, without charge or trial, during the last world war. His Union Movement was founded in 1948 with a very clear message acknowledging that the post-war era demanded some very definite re-thinking. This re-thinking was encapsulated in the new idea of Europe a Nation, the hope that Europeans would never fight each other again and would unite in brotherhood. He made it very clear that the fascism of the Thirties had its faults and weaknesses, specifically that it 'rode roughshod over individual liberties.' Its other weakness being that it was far too narrow in its nationalism which could lead to the adoption of a belligerent attitude towards other nations, likely leading to war. There are still people today who talk rather foolishly of reviving fascism, a position which always seems to manifest itself in a fetish for uniforms and related paraphernalia. This particular penchant leaves no room for reason and serious practical thought. In Britain, the public display of political uniforms has been banned since 1936 and there is neither a desire nor a need to adopt such outward appearances again when other more effective means of propaganda are now available to us in the form of the new methods of electronic communication. There is no law against groups of people dressing up in black uniforms behind closed curtains and locked doors, when it satisfies a deep-felt need. But it is not politics; so let us make that very clear. What is the point of wearing a political uniform if the wearing of such a uniform in public is illegal? A true political mind is flexible enough to recognise a more pragmatic and realistic way and therefore rejects that which neither works nor is acceptable in the long run. There is a current trend towards reviving a 'golden era,' not surprising when most of us live in an age of empty materialism and uncertainty. Pre-war fascism did hark back to another era for inspiration. With Mussolini it was Ancient Rome and with Mosley it was England’s Elizabethan era. Having said that, we must understand that every 'golden era' had something of an illusion about it and so we must resist the temptation of dwelling on a past that seemed to offer a better picture of things. We are realists, albeit guided by an idealism, but an idealism for the future and not for the past. Fascism ended in the dust and ashes of 1945. The promises that it held for so many were dashed for good. What emerged in its place was a transcendence, upwards and forward, that looked back only for the purpose of learning lessons. The greatest virtue of pre-war fascism was its deeply held patriotism expressed in the most noble terms. Now we extend that principle of patriotism to the concept of Europe a Nation, widening the scope and appeal for a greater love of nation, beyond fascism. In the Twenty First Century we require a new creed for the purpose of carrying forward that long fought-out struggle in the interests of all our peoples in Europe. It is a synthesis of the best from all that has preceded the present time which leaves all previous political ideas totally redundant - including those of fascism!"</i><br />
<br />
While I recognise that <i>European Action</i> is a more faithful representation of Sir Oswald Mosley's post-war ideology than New British Union, for the purpose of clarity I again make clear that I hold no allegiance or sympathy for either. My own feeling is that politics has failed people and always will.<br />
<br />
Returning to the person behind The Faustian Circle, it is superfluous for him to state that Anthony Hogg is not one of its members. Apart from the fact that Hogg is of mixed race and has not been within a thousand miles of the United Kingdom, or indeed Europe; with his overtly left-wing views Anthony Hogg is a natural supporter of Unite Against Fascism and any similar anti-Fascist group.<br />
<br />
The same goes for Redmond McWilliams who has contributed numerous anonymous posts to the offending blog. McWilliams is also a homosexual; so obviously not a likely supporter of Fascism.<br />

<br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">On 17 February 2015, I tried to open a dialogue with The Faustian Circle which, in the event, proved, as I had feared, to be a pointless exercise that would grind to an unsatisfactory halt three days later.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><br />
My opening message to The Faustian Circle is published below:</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><br />
To: The Faustian Circle</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>I am writing to object to the extremely libellous nature of comments made about me by Mr Hogg and Mr Farrant, plus some anonymous comments and those of your own, on two threads found on The Faustian Circle blog. </i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>The posting and, therefore, publication of this defamatory and abusive material which is designed to cause damage to my personal and professional life by the above named individuals is wholly unacceptable. The material itself is also completely false.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>In the first instance, I am requesting that you remove all the aforementioned material with reference to myself and desist from publishing on the internet any further commentary about me.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>In view of the extremely abusive and libellous nature of the identified pages on your blog where I am named and defamed, I must advise you that legal steps might have to be taken, including the involvement of the police. However, I hope this will not be needed and that reason will prevail.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>It will not be found necessary, of course, if the offending material is removed as soon as possible, ie within the next 48 hours.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>You will understand that I am legally obliged to provide this notice before taking any further action as outlined above.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>Yours faithfully,</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>†Seán Manchester</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The Faustian Circle replied:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>"Wouldn't it be better to respond to the articles and comments in the comments sections of the articles in question?</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>"In the interests of free speech and debate we are extremely reluctant to remove the articles.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>"However, you are of course entirely free to pursue DNS action via the internet in an attempt to remove the articles and comments to which you refer.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">
<br />
This was promptly followed by a brief second message:</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><br />
<i>"Sorry, but we cannot accept a complaint which is not sent from a legitimate email account."</i></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><br />To which I responded:</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>I refer you to your willingness to remove material critical of Mr Farrant, as exemplified two days ago with this:</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>"We have removed the above comment after a lady objected to its libellous nature."</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>My grounds for objection are significantly greater on the grounds of the sheer volume and degree of defamation which, in my opinion, you have stimulated from the onset.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>What you have personally written about me is erroneous and based on falsehood originating with Mr Farrant about whom you say nothing that is negative or that he would object over. I have no idea what your agenda is beyond repeating slurs and libel designed to cause damage to my personal and professional life. I hold no party political opinions and have never done so. I am not an occultist or a magician. I have worked in tandem with those seeking peace throughout my life and still remain a representative of Pax Christi, something which might possibly motivate your willingness, as a Fascist, to provide a platform for others to harass me, defame me and incite hatred against me.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>You ask me to provide tangible evidence of who I am to somebody, namely yourself, who remains totally anonymous and is only known as "The Faustian Circle." It is quite obvious who I am. Look at the thousands of friends on my account which has been held for years. Why else would I be asking for libellous material to be removed if I was not who I say I am? You are looking for an excuse to do nothing. I am not in a position where I can do nothing because I am the victim of your actions against me.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>As it stands, you are in breach of the Protection from Harassment Act, Religious Discrimination and Hatred Law, Libel Law and the fact that, under Article 8 of the Human Rights Act, everyone has the right to respect for his private and family life, his home and his correspondence. I believe my privacy to have been violated.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>Whether or not you accept this complaint from me, whilst doing so from others who are set against me, is neither here nor there. What matters is that I have made my complaint and that you are now cognisant of it. If you wish this to now be taken further with the involvement of law enforcement to ensure my protection from the abuse you not only allow but are instrumental in initiating and prolonging, that is your choice entirely. I have acquainted you with the facts and lodged my complaint.</i></span><br />
<i><br /></i>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>Yours faithfully,</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><i><br />
†Seán Manchester</i></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The Faustian Circle, once again, reiterated that they would need me to send an e-mail in order to authenticate who I am. To which I responded:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><br />
<i>You are suggesting that I use my personal account (you already have my name) to post the same request as above to an impersonal account held by an anonymous stranger.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>You already have my request and the reasons I have made it. The rest is obfuscation on your part. How about providing me with your real name with evidence it is genuine?</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>I do not like dealing with anonymous people, and do not have the resources to identify you myself. The police, on the other hand, do. Tell me your name and arrange to meet me face to face in order to determine who I am if that is so critical; though I am very much of the opinion it is a delaying tactic on your part. What difference will it make if you do receive an e-mail? Does that mean you will instantly remove all reference to myself?</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>Yours faithfully,</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>†Seán Manchester</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The Faustian Circle all along failed to say whether receiving an e-mail would result in what I was requesting. However, I did follow my message with another that stated:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<i><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">It occurred to me that if the only bar to you taking any action is verification via an e-mail associated with my website you could send an e-mail to just such an address: </span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">[e-mail address deleted] </span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and, upon my receiving it, I could relay its contents exactly along with the time it was sent. I would just ask that there are no attachments, as these could cause it to be spammed out. Send a message, code or sequence of words. Anything you like.</span></i><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>You must ask yourself how I would be able to read your e-mail if I am anyone other than who I say I am? I shall expect your e-mail to be sent from [the e-mail associated with The Faustian Circle]. </i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>Yours faithfully,</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>†Seán Manchester</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The Faustian Circle replied:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>"If Sean Manchester sends us an email associated with his website as we first requested, then yes we will be able to consider his complaint."</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I responded:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<i><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I presume you want an e-mail associated with my website to verify I am who I say I am? That being the case, as you remain totally anonymous and use an impersonal account for e-mail traffic yourself, send an e-mail to me containing a message or sequence of words that only the recipient could know when it is received. Send to: </span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">[e-mail address deleted]</span></i><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>I will then get back to you with the exact content of your e-mail sent from [the e-mail associated with The Faustian Circle].</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>The only other remedy to your alleged concern over my true identity is that you meet me in person. You say you are London-based. That being so, you will not have far to travel, but this would obviously be unnecessary if you send an e-mail to my account.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>As the aggrieved party, I am not the one who should be on the back foot here. You continue to allow those in the business of abusing, harassing and defaming me, even when done anonymously, to post their incitements of hatred. How do you find any of this honourable? You are treating this in a manner which certainly suggests you have little intention of removing the references to me. In which case, if action is taken I, or those acting on my behalf, shall be obliged to recover costs from you.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>I wouldn't listen to the baying mob you have allowed to monopolise your blog. None of them will be affected by the outcome. What is troubling is that you set this situation up in the first place, and not for the first time. As my website unequivocally states, I haven't accepted interviews on these matters for years because all there is to say has been said. There is nothing useful to add. More particularly, it's half a century ago! I live in the present and find it sad that others dwell almost permanently in the distant past; in most instances, not even their own past. My website also makes clear that, although I was a minor public figure many years, I am no longer so today. I consider myself a private person who wishes to live out his last years in relative peace. You are demonstrating an unwillingness to allow that to happen for reasons known only to yourself, which to me is ignoble and indefensible. You describe The Faustian Circle as 'a British Study Group based in London, England, which is engaged in research into the relationship between Politics and the Occult.' How does that involve me, or indeed phenomena occurring at Highgate half a century ago? I have studied aspects of the occult in the past, but I am not an occultist. I have met politicians, some of them political leaders, from the whole spectrum of politics, but I am not party political myself and never have been. Yet the overwhelming majority of comments on The Faustian Circle are about either me or an ex-convict who has frittered away his life pursuing vicious vendettas against people - of which I am one. The third element is the Highgate case which has no political dimension.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>How can you possibly justify this platform for libellous abuse against me? Unless, of course, The Faustian Circle with its nostalgia for something that is quite dead is merely a smokescreen for something else? Others must be having similar thoughts.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>Yours faithfully,</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>†Seán Manchester</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The Faustian Circle responded that I have more than one Facebook account, to which I explained that previous accounts had reached full capacity as there is a limit to how many friends Facebook allow, requiring me to open new ones as more people ask to be my friend. These are perfectly legitimate reasons for having more than account. The Faustian Circle allowed David Farrant to publish on its blog the addresses of all my accounts which proves that Farrant has more than one account himself, as I have blocked him and his associates from seeing any of my accounts. To find my Facebook presence Farrant and company would require second accounts themselves. Hence I pointed out the following in my final message to The Faustian Circle, 20 February 2015:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><br />
<i>Mr Hogg [one of those posting defamatory material about me] has various accounts on Facebook. Two are in his real name that I am aware of (there might be more for all I know) and others are in false names. The same goes for Mr Farrant's close friend Mr McWilliams (who posts anonymously on your blog). He has opened innumerable Facebook accounts in a variety of names, largely in an attempt to infiltrate groups where he is not wanted. Mr Farrant's son, Jamie, has at least two accounts in his real name and who knows how many in counterfeit names? The reason I have accumulated my accounts is legitimate. Theirs, clearly, is not.</i></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>You speak only of libel - and I am certainly libelled repeatedly and continuously on your blog - but you omit any mention of other offences occurring on your blog; offences that I have already identified to you that place you in breach of the Protection from Harassment Act, Religious Discrimination and Hatred Law, plus Article 8 of the Human Rights Act. Google no more deals with libel that it does with any of the aforementioned about which you say nothing. They are criminal and not civil offences. Hence the police possibly taking an interest with the potential for a custodial sentence in certain instances.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>What I notice is your willingness to discuss the private messages I have sent you with commentators on your blog who are antipathetic toward me, while at the same time refusing to engage in any discussion with me beyond the mantra "contact us by email."</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>If you are genuinely concerned about establishing my identity you would do as I suggest and send an e-mail associated with my website, and I, in turn, will respond with the exact content of what you have sent, proving beyond any doubt who I am.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>Moreover, if you really subscribe to "freedom of expression, even if a blog contains unappealing or distasteful content or presents unpopular viewpoints," you would not have capitulated so readily to Mr Farrant's assistant, known as Della, with the words: "We have removed the above comment after a lady objected to its libellous nature." You follow this with a note of gratitude to Mr Hogg who had reproduced something in his comment about which Della disapproved: "Thank you for understanding and for respecting the lady's wishes Mr Hogg." </i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>There is something strange, as well as hypocritical, about this situation. You curtail "freedom of expression" when it favours Mr Farrant, but refuse to do so when it means I am the one requesting deletion.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>This has nothing to do with my not sending an e-mail or my identity not having been confirmed. You could send me an e-mail to the address associated with my website.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>This is something else. Something personal. Something distinctly and uniquely aimed at me. Why else am I the only individual attacked on your blog which uses a Fascist symbol while allowing known anti-Fascists such as Mr Hogg and Mr McWilliams to post abuse that incites hatred while defaming and totally misrepresenting me? </i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>You seem so friendly with the anti-Fascist Mr Hogg and the anti-Fascist Mr McWilliams. Yet the self-styled Fascist "The Faustian Circle" describes itself/himself as a "Secret Order working to shape thinking and to manipulate events from behind the scenes. It encourages its supporters to be active in political organisations in Great Britain in order to influence policy and to spread the National Gnostic message. Likewise its Faustian Youth section is involved in musical subcultures such as Industrial, Black Metal, Goth, Punk/Post-Punk, Neo-Folk and such like."</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>You have broken the confidentiality of my private messages by making known the thrust of my correspondence on a public forum to those who consider me an enemy.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>I do not believe you ever had any intention of "considering" my complaint. You merely want to engage me in something I have no intention of becoming drawn into. Your initial article is loaded against me and its false and misleading content about me has been adapted straight from the propaganda of Mr Farrant and his cronies.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>You first contacted me via Royal Mail two years ago, on 19 March 2013 to be precise, when you sent your "Hail Abraxas!" leaflet that declared: "The Faustian Circle is an Occult-Fascist Secret Order." As someone who has investigated for television and radio - indeed, written about - "secret orders," allow me to inform you that genuine secret orders do not send leaflets to people like myself, much less do they open Facebook accounts and blogs which anyone in the world can read.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>Finally, the envelope containing The Faustian Circle material in 2013 was addressed to me in ball-point pen ink. Albeit in capital letters, I recognised the handwriting instantly.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>This dialogue has now run its course. I shall act in accordance with what is best.</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>Yours faithfully,</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><i>†Seán Manchester</i></span><br />

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;">On 19 February 2015, I wrote to the blogger responsible for The Faustian Circle:</span><br />

<i style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 17.9400005340576px; white-space: pre-wrap;">"You describe The Faustian Circle as 'a British Study Group based in London, England, which is engaged in research into the relationship between Politics and the Occult.' How does that involve me, or indeed phenomena occurring at Highgate half a century ago? I have studied aspects of the occult in the past, but I am not an occultist. I have met politicians, some of them political leaders, from across the whole spectrum of politics, but I am not party political myself and never have been. Yet the overwhelming majority of comments on The Faustian Circle are either about me or an ex-convict who has frittered away his life pursuing vicious vendettas against people - of which I am one. The third element is the Highgate case which has no political dimension.</i><br />
<i style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 17.9400005340576px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></i>
<i style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 17.9400005340576px; white-space: pre-wrap;">"How can you possibly justify this platform for libellous abuse against me? Unless, of course, The Faustian Circle with its nostalgia for something that is quite dead is merely a smokescreen for something else?"</i><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 17.9400005340576px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 17.9400005340576px; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the previous day, when I opened a private correspondence that would last merely three days, I established my political credentials with the person behind The Faustian Circle:</span><br />

<i style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 17.9400005340576px; text-align: left; white-space: pre-wrap;">"I hold no party political opinions and have never done so. I am not an occultist or a magician. I have worked in tandem with those seeking peace throughout my life and still remain a representative of Pax Christi, something which might possibly motivate your willingness, as a Fascist, to provide a platform for others to harass me, defame me and incite hatred against me."</i><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 17.9400005340576px; text-align: left; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 17.9400005340576px; text-align: left; white-space: pre-wrap;">None of the points in my conversation were addressed by the person behind The Faustian Circle.</span><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This blog is a troll-free area for critical examination of something calling itself "The Faustian Circle," or, perhaps I should say, someone calling themself "The Faustian Circle," which/who uses as its/his symbol the pre-war emblem of the British Union of Fascists and National Socialists (pictured above).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Comments from readers are welcome, but will be closely monitered to weed out the inevitable trolls.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The Faustian Circle is a supposedly self-styled Occult-Fascist group, allegedly formed in London, England, on New Year's Day 2013. It claims to be dedicated to promoting the creed of National Gnosticism and the doctrine of Social Darwinism in its <i>"eternal struggle for Survival of the Fittest."</i> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The Faustian Circle claims, or, at least, it did when it first appeared, to be a <i>"Secret Order working to shape thinking and to manipulate events from behind the scenes. It encouragea its supporters to be active in political organisations in Great Britain in order to influence policy and to spread the National Gnostic message. Likewise its Faustian Youth section is involved in musical subcultures such as Industrial, Black Metal, Goth, Punk/Post-Punk, Neo-Folk and such like." It also claims to seek contact with "like minded groups and individuals in Europe and throughout the World."</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Almost eight months after its founding, this appeared on The Faustian Circle's blog on 21 July 2013:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;">"The Faustian Circle is now disbanded and the previously listed contact email address of the Order is no longer in use. In any case our circle of supporters never amounted to more than a handful of individuals. This blog is now suspended and will not be updated. Previous posts will be maintained as a historical archive and resource for researchers."</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Eight months later, another statement was published on 26 March 2014, saying the following:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;">"The Faustian Circle has been relaunched after the previous Blog Master was forced to retire due to health reasons. ***** was persuaded to hand over control of the F.C. Blog to the Council of the Faustian Circle. We are glad to report that he has now made a full recovery and still supports our organisation.</span></i><i><span style="font-family: inherit;">"</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">(The edited out name - ***** - is exactly as it originally appeared on The Faustian Circle.)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Nobody showed any interest in The Faustian Circle until it decided to launch an attack upon myself.</span><br />
