Growing up Greek Orthodox, I always heard people describe our church as "new calendar" and I didn't understand until I was an adult that our church had split over something as petty as what day it is
@mr.bitsbyte4664
@mr.bitsbyte4664 7 месяцев назад
This isn't at all a good explanation, and he didn't do his research. There are many different types of Orthodoxy these days. Up until around 100 years ago, there was really just the one, true faith, and those who chose not to accept it but rather do their own version. The reason "Old calendar" Greek Orthodox refer to themselves as old calender isn't exclusively because of the calender. The calendar is just the most obvious point. What "Old calenderists" stand for is a completely unadulterated version of the Christian church. There is no change to adapt to modern times, because the church is everlasting and unchanging, so why would our traditions change to suit modern tastes? With small changes opens the gateway to big changes, and you can believe that's not true over the time of your life, but it's not true for a church that has lasted 2000 years and upheld its traditions since they were conceived. Churches that adopted the new calender went away with many critical Orthodox traditions. This is a fact. They go hand in hand. Most new calenderists don't even upkeep the fast which is so critical to the faith. Like I said there are many different types of Orthodoxy these days and you can find churches holding different parts of different traditions. You can even find "old calender" churches that keep the old calender but dispose of many other core Orthodox traditions (eg the Russian Orthodox church). So its not just about the calender. It's about the tradition. About upholding the one, true faith, without change. You can read much more about this online

​@@mr.bitsbyte4664Quote: "So its not just about the calender. It's about the tradition...." Dude this is exactly why people mock and laugh at the pettiness of the split. But I took the time. Not to research the religion, no. But to read, to analyze, to contemplate, and to reply to this. Because... *wow.* This needs to be addressed. To begin, Wendigoon is literally able to list the books of the bible on the fly, without aid. From the Old to New Testament. He is a very religious man, dude teaches Sunday School. He did research, and he did explain it well; the religion is "Funny Christianity" and nothing more. But like the religion, you have a blatant need to stand out; be "special." Original in this context very clearly implying "best." I see the branch you describe as dangerous after reading this. I see how it can radicalize someone against their own fellow believers, see how it's radicalizing *you.* And here's where I draw the line. Quote: "There are many different types of Orthodoxy these days. Up until around 100 years ago, there was really just the one, true faith, and those who chose not to accept it but rather do their own version." You are actually claiming your branch of the largest religion in the world is the *True faith.* You require addressing now. Because your religious beliefs are on the brink of dangerous. Quote: "Most new calenderists don't even upkeep the fast which is so critical to the faith." I'm sorry? "New Calenderists?" I don't like the implications that come with that phrasing. *I really don't.* This isn't even coming from a Christian, I'm an atheist. Quote: "Churches that adopted the new calander went away with many critical Orthodox traditions. This is a fact. They go hand in hand." This is not a fact; that is a claim. The word "Many" wipes away the word "fact" by... common sense. Not even sure what word is appropriate for that, I'm analyzing rhetoric not your grammar (which is why I'm only correcting my own spell errors.) And to just add more; we have August. That month is *for* Augustus Caesar. Who was a(n adoptive) family member of a man *who claimed to be a son of Mars.* I.E. the Roman *God of War.* We have a whole month for him. And finally, *and most importantly for a person's health,* fasting is NOT critical to faith. Fasting is dangerous because religion makes people do insane things like *unintentionally starve,* or how you know... *We are biological creatures who need to eat. To list *fasting* in such a way, and so dismissively, is just absurd. Absurd is all I can describe that as. The statement "Don't even upkeep the fast which is so critical to the faith." Is why I have no remorse in these words: This is more than a petty separation; it's a radical fermenting vat. If you claim to be the "true faith," in regard to others who believe in that same god as you; your belief system is dangerous by default. It's a good thing there aren't that many who know or care in such detail, because you speak like a radical. To claim a "true faith" is an admission of radicalized belief. You know what *is* critical to faith? *Faith.* Isn't that all that matters? No, not to you. Which is why I can extrapolate from your statements that you are most likely antisemetic; Judaism does not believe Jesus was the messiah and thus does not follow your "true faith." And after realizing you used a blanket term such as "Calenderist" I am confident in my assumption that you are a devout believer (in your supremacy.) Which is why I no longer find the pettiness very funny. I spent a lot of time reading your sermon, writing this reply, *revising the reply*, and editing/formatting it. I'm trying not to be offensive to those of other orthodoxy, but that's quite difficult because *you make all of Christianity look bad to me, what you might as well call an atheist. Or a heretic, I like Warhammer 40K anyways. You make Christianity as a whole look bad, you make your God look bad, you make *calendars* look bad. It was never about a calender, it was about believing themselves better, and that indoctrinated, dogmatic bigotry is still palpable through you. It's funny, Jesus was killed over a love of power. This branch of Christianity was clearly formed centering around a love of power.

​@@mr.bitsbyte4664 Its very disturbing that you see 'traditional' as 'objectively good'. Now, im not saying its all bad, im a pretty traditional guy. But a lot of it was BS that rightfully altered. If it was up to tradition, your wife would literally be your property, and anyone not white or Christian would be persecuted. Is all that worth it just to eventually die and find out all that happens is you cease to exist, no different then before you were born. And youve condemned anyone different just because you had the wild idea that after death youd actually get to have a good time in paradise forever..

@@XXMatt0040XX My guy, I am new calendarist, but I would really appreciate if you do a bit more research before attacking orthodoxy. The most glaring thing is your criticism of fasting. Fasting within orthodoxy is done for about half the year but in normal times, only on Wednesday and Friday. We eat on fasting days, but we abstain in general from animal products. We do not starve ourselves. Second, please don't be so vitriolic and assume so much about someone without having ever met them. That only leads to a lot of anger and sin. Ill be praying for you.

@@karenamyx2205 Please don't assume such awful things about orthodoxy. For one, there are a multitude of black saints, and even a native Alaskan saint who got canonized just this week. Second, orthodoxy did not arise in the west and 'tradition' in orthodoxy is very different from tradition in the west. Also, one very common expression within orthodoxy is that "We know where the church is, not where it isn't" as in, we know orthodoxy is the true church, however we hope but we don't know that for example protestants or Catholics will be saved. We pray for the souls of all people, we do not condemn anyone different. I'll be praying for you.

Jewish person here! Kabbalah was actually originally only allowed to be learned by men in their 40’s (mostly rabbi’s and other religious figures) however, in recent years (I mean really recent) people of all ages have been learning about it as well. In high school (Jewish high school to be specific) my Jewish Culture teacher made us write a report on different parts of Kabbalah; we had to expand on what we thought was most interesting and important and while doing my research and learning about it I understood why only certain people could learn it cause it is very complicated (on both surface level and deeper into the practice)

Kabbat ul llah is the house of God which ia the heart of the complete Adamite(perfected man). Also Kabba have many meanings the root means knee or elbow related to a 90° × 4 is 360° . Which is both the Circle and the square. KABBA also means peak or Pinnacle. And I know all this because we have a mystic tradition and we are the originals of this.

The weird thing is that if Jim Jones had had died suddenly in the 60s when his church was still in Indianapolis, he'd likely be remembered relatively fondly as a figure of the civil rights movement; then he moved the church to San Francisco where his church had a truly astounding amount of political sway in the city during the 70s. And then the whole situation in Guyana, where his behavior was very similar to that of a family annihilator write large. Truly terrifying to imagine the people who experienced the full trajectory of the church.

I find it interesting that Jim Jones has the same last name as Jeff Jones, who was the original lead singer-bassist of Rush, and who stepped out of the band to form Ocean, which was, guess what, a gospel rock band. Yes, Jones is a pretty common last name, but if I had a dime every time an evil cult leader shared their last name with a gospel rock musician, I'd have at least one dime.

I'm an ex-member of the Ordo Templi Orientis. I was in it for 10 years. The OTO is an occult organization which started in Germany in the late 1800s as an attempt to create an "Academia Masonica" which would bring together various Masonic rites (Masonry only has 3 regular degrees, called Blue Lodge, and everything after that is done through semi-autonomous "rites" like the most popular Scottish Rite which has 33 degrees or York Rite which has 10 degrees) to learn from one another (and bring those which had existed in other countries into Germany) as well as be a reconstitution of the 1776 Bavarian Illuminati. On top of this the OTO claimed to hold a "key" which one of the co-founders Kellner says he discovered in his travels meeting and unifying Eastern and Western spiritualities). Eventually Aleister Crowley joined and, as is his norm, took over entirely. He reformed the Order to match his own self created religion called Thelema (a hodge podge of many different religions but which focus on him being a Prophet of "The New Aeon of Horus". I was a dedicated Thelemite for around 13 years (including my time in the OTO) and after a series of weird personal events sought out the local chapter of the OTO to ask them for help and see if I wanted to join. I was a little stunned to see they had so few members and their temple space was running out of temporary rentals above an occult book store. All the same these people had chill vibes and were able to talk about things I just could not with anyone else as there's so much esoteric jargon in Thelema telling someone like a friend or family about Nuit, Hadit, Ra-Hoor-Khuit, Babalon, The City of Pyramids etc etc is near impossible. I decided to join. They offer a 0th degree called Minerval which allows you to attend Lodge meetings (non-members can only come to the after gathering, usually at a pub, bar or restaurant or attend the public demonstrations of Crowley's "Gnostic" Mass which in reality is just a Thelemic Mass based off the Mass of Russian Orthodox Christianity... but be warned if you go the eucharist, called Cakes of Light, contain a single drop of either blood or semen put into the massive batch before cooking it to kill any viruses possibly present) and the 0th degree is supposed to be an unbinding way to see if you want to go further or back away... but in reality the ritual contains vows which are far from unbinding. I progressed through several of the degrees before I left. I left for many different reasons but was in it for 10 years (I'm about to turn 31). My Lodge itself was full of pretty normal people but the Grand Lodge which ran out of the US began to be something I questioned more and more especially when one of the highest rank members, James Wasserman, begun outwardly spouting far-right ideals, posting pics of himself smiling with people like Roger Stone and Milo Yiannopoulos. If you search up "Proud Boys founder" on Google Images several pics in you'll see a picture with a man on the right wearing a shirt that has a unicursal hexagram and the number 93, those are Thelemic symbols. Looking into it he was an OTO member as were others in the Proud Boys due to James Wasserman's militant Trumpism. The man in the pic sadly passed away due to an overdose. Then there's Augustus Sol Invictus who was only booted from the Order when public relations got bad as he was a keynote speaker at the tragic hate rally Unite The Right. He was not kicked out for his views which were known beforehand but for making the news... oh and he was a candidate for the Libertarian Party nomination in the 2016 United States Senate election in Florida, was the publisher of Revolutionary Conservative, a magazine which calls for a violent far-right white uprising. To add to that In response to Invictus's campaign, the chairman of the Libertarian Party resigned due to Invictus calling him a "violent Fascist and Neo-Nazi" whose ideology was incompatible with libertarianism and saying he did not want to be part of the same party. The chairman also accused Invictus of supporting eugenics and of "sadistically dismembering a goat in a ritualistic sacrifice". Invictus responded by admitting that he once wrote a paper advocating eugenics but saying that he has since "changed his mind". He said he had sacrificed the goat and drunk its blood as part of a ritual to give thanks for surviving a pilgrimage in spring 2013, but denied it was "sadistic". So yeh while my Lodge was full of normal people the same cannot be said of many others especially those in America and Australia. I started being far more critical and doing research, openly breaking my vows to keep silent about all I've experienced and seeking out leaks about future degrees. I found out that the Order had actually essentially died out in the past (in the 70s I think, I'd have to look it up to find exact dates) and an author named Francis King wrote a book called The Secret Rituals of the OTO with every degree's ceremony and teachings included. The book matched precisely my experiences although certain signs, grips and passcodes were changed following the book being published. I knew the OTO was openly leading towards sx magick, that didn't bother me, but what I found and read in the final degree teachings was far more messed up than the sort of thing I was expecting. Those interested can easily google "Secret Rituals of the OTO pdf" and find it to see what I'm talking about. I also found out there was a long history of far-right tendencies within the OTO going back to Crowley. When the OTO first came to America the FBI puts tabs on them and heard the leader state that he believed evil-moustache-man from WW2 was right in thinking Germans were superior to others. Crowley's own opinions on evil-moustache-man are harder to pin down as the British government has declassified the fact he was working for British secret intelligence against Germany during WW1. It's highly implied he joined the Golden Dawn and caused the schism that brought it down because of direct orders from the British Government as The Golden Dawn was becoming a hub for well known Irish Nationalists who wanted to British to relinquish control over their country. However in his personal diaries he writes actual sx dreams about evil-moustache-man. A man, who doesn't seem too stable himself but none the less has acquired and is collecting and publishing primary source material about the OTO runs a website the OTO has been trying to get shut down for many years but can't as it is hosted in Sweden. It is called parareligion (search "parareligion oto" in google to find it) and while it is hard to navigate and full of weird stuff its a treasure trove of primary source material covering the entire 100+ years of OTO history. It even, kinda sillily, logs conversations about my own Lodge Master and a "controversy" where he took 5$ from the dues of members (which he replaced immediately) to buy uhh some white stuff that goes in the nose. Throughout my time in the OTO I met people from many different esoteric Mystery Schools and cults ranging from Freemasons (by far the most down to Earth, chill and normal of all the people I met were all Masons with 32nd degree Scottish Rite Masons being regular people like one who was a university teacher and specialist in translating ancient Sanskrit into English) to several versions of reconstituted Golden Dawns, several reconstituted Rosicrucian Orders (the most cult and kinda pathetic just successful is AMORC and the most respectable and legitimate was the SRIA available only to Master Masons affiliated with the United Grand Lodge of England which most Masonry is), non-English Grand Lodge Masons like Memphis-Misraim which many of the OTO's own initiations are based off of, an ARG that turned into an actual cult called Project 89 that convinced me to bring around 10 friends to farm to start a commune which failed miserable (please do not harass anyone who was affiliated with 89, most have moved on and are very good people who just did some stupid stuff when their were younger), chaos magick groups such as DKMU and much more. If you're interested in asking me anything, really anything, about any of this just let me know. To close off I want to note I was introduced to the occult through RU-vid videos and the algorithm driving my interest in spirituality into deeper and deeper weirdness.

@CrypticCocktails yeh I should have seen the coming issues present in the late OTO "secrets" but I joined assuming they were just tantric sex teachings and not the absolutely insane neo-Paracelsian Spermo(pseudo)gnostic nonsense it actually is. I'm all for sex magick, the true stuff, which can be solo and internal with the anima and animus or whatever you want to call those aspects or externally with lovers like the naturally flowing unplanned ritual feeling that comes from making love with the woman I've been in a 13 year relationship with. She's a woman who sees herself as a sex magician and has little interest in Crowley but finds my inteptetations interesting. She taught me a lot and learned along with me at the same time. To us sex Mysteries when physical are found in the cycling of energy and learning to give and take from one another in such a way we both come out with a sum total more than we went in with since we're tapping into an infinite source (Love in the highest sense) while we give and take. Since Crowley wasn't my main interest when I joined and for years later compared to simply The Book of The Law and my personal interpretation of it it was disillusioning and deeply saddening to slowly realize he was a sex pest (abuser) and misogynistic who left everyone he "loved" broken and abandoned as he focused entirely on himself (how he could not see he was A Black Brother who'd not let Babalon do her thing but been trapped in Chronzon, in Daath, confounds me. It was heartbreaking, honestly realizing half your life you'd been feeding into the worldview of a loser... it's not like he lived all that long ago I think he lived at a time we knew women had eggs and sperm merely fetalized it yet the OTO's final "secrets" view the phallus as all important and a woman's yoni as little more than a gateway for the wondrous phallus... and of all things, the aim is homunculus creation... so dumb. At least due to my own blindness of who he was l let my subconscious aspire to better things than he was capable of and while I've not read it in years The Book of The Law meant to me things quite different than I imagine it did for him. Any element of him in rites like oaths to Baphomet (his OTO name) I took symbolically and didn't see as him at all but as a symbol of male-female unity both exoterically as sex and esoterically as a Sethian Gnostic Barbelo like Godform (using Eliphas Levi's interpretation of Baphomet and my own study of Gnosticism), Western Esotericism + Eastern Mysticism unity (due to the Memphis Misraim framework of the early degrees about the Templars not warring with but interacting with Islamic mystics) and as a symbol of the supraego shared by us all and which resides in what in Neoplatonsm would be called the Nous or by Jung the Collective Unconscious
@thishandleistacken
@thishandleistacken 8 месяцев назад
@CrypticCocktails There are some quality teachings within Thelema and Crowley that I've internalized and morphed with many other teachings from elsewhere and my own experiences, but yep for the most part I've left both behind. I sometimes still perform edited personalized versions of The Star Ruby or stuff (he mostly stole) from Liber E and Liber O or other stuff like the exercises in Liber Thisarb. I think the word Thelema is an excellent title and what he was clearly attempting to do was address Schopenhauer's concepts of Will and, Voltaire's question of inventing God, Nietzsche's Dead God and so on. As such I still internally call myself a Thelemite but to me it's as separate from Crowley as Thelema was to him as being different from the Thelema of Rabelais or The Law as written by Augustine of Hippo (Love and do as you will” - St Augustine). Thelema is to me the art of refining one's ability to channel the Divine Will (the Divine by me is seen in a more a more Neoplatonic sense than Gnostic or any religious sense despite) and allow it to consciously transform my own personal will, life, being and while my will is slowly aligned with Divine Will it acts as a magnet where Divine Will is reaching out a hand while my will reaches out towards it. Sex magick to me is the internal alchemy of that love for God and also how sexuality, unshackled by guilt as well as obsession, is itself key to understanding oneself and others... It was due to my personalized Thelemic understanding of sexuality I developed the technique I use on psys for entering so called "high states" by allowing my male aspects and female aspects to externalize, make love with each other and give birth to my Self who is both male and femlae yet neither... so I'm very thankful for Thelema as much as I hate Crowley XD

It’s interesting that you mention Ghost Dance. I recently (maybe a couple of months ago) saw people do a ghost dance at a Powwow. I’m from Canada and I’m mixed Mohawk so I often go to support local Indigenous communities and vendors and enjoy the dances. A couple of the dancers there actually preformed a version of ghost dance that they used to bring in the spirits of the ancestors of all those in attendance to enjoy the powwow, especially those of the recently found residential school children here. I think there was actually someone who had attended one of the schools dancing too, but I can’t remember fully. There were no cameras or videos allowed and there was no singing, just drums and the dancers. It was really moving and a powerful moment. I wouldn’t be surprised if some elements of ghost dance found themselves re-emerging into Indigenous spirituality especially with the Indigenous Resurgence movements going on. I think it would be really nice to find those dances incorporated partly because they were meant to strengthen the community and make the links between the ancestors and the community stronger. Not sure if all that makes sense. But it was a really beautiful moment to honour those who had passed and are still with us.

My Dad did an audit for scientology in the 80s. It really freaked him out, so he never went back. They called him and when he said he wasn't interested, the person on the phone started asking who he was talking to and was essentially demanding him to give a reason as to why he wasn't coming back. In roughly 2015~, they called him at his work and invited him to a barbecue in another state. Keep in mind, hes hard to find. He's changed his last name, has drifted around a lot, doesn't have a social media presence, and has had a ton of other jobs. They called him again sometime later, too. Weird organization.

Bruh they just kept the calendar because they didn't want to have the same calendar with the catholics because they thought it was heresy.... They also call themselves the pure orthodox's i think because of that Major bruh moment Also quick edit: orthodox literally means true or right fate... Orthodox comes from the ancient greek ορθός(orthos) which means standing or up but can be used also metaphorically as right and the word δόξα(doxa) which comes from the ancient greek word δοκώ(doko) which means receive, but δόξα can mean to honour someone or believe or to have faith in someone like a diety or something . So Old calendars basically call themselves the "true-true believers" which is fucking hilarious.

But IIRC, there was some big split among Buddhist monks back in the day, because they weren't supposed to have any possessions or keep anything from day to day, including food. Some genius said "OK, but what about spices and stuff?", and I guess some monks said "Obviously that's fine", and some other monks said "Um, obviously that's NOT fine", and they had a big squabble about it.

Mark Twain was born two weeks after Halley’s Comet reached its closest distance from Earth, and later in 1910 when the comet was again nearing Earth, he died the day after it came closest to us. He was quoted in 1909 saying: “I came in with Halley's Comet in 1835. It is coming again next year, and I expect to go out with it. It will be the greatest disappointment of my life if I don't go out with Halley's Comet. The Almighty has said, no doubt: 'Now here are these two unaccountable freaks; they came in together, they must go out together.”

For the Jonestown massacre: There's a tape of some of the last hours where he's preaching to the members about killing themselves while many of the children are heard crying because they don't want to die or whatever they were told by their parents is gonna happen to them, it's harrowing. Also, there's a very cool band called Brian Jonestown Massacre.

I was watching an interview with a couple that hid, had to watch all their friends die from hiding. They said he had guys with rifles around the corrugation ready to kill anyone who refused to drink the cool-aid. So it was either poison yourself, or be shot to death.

@@TheWhiteGoblin I think I would labelled it as "murder-suicide". Some mothers there actually accepted their fate, when the children drank the cyanide-laced flavored drink, and they died from it. But yeah, this seems that they lure themselves into suicide from murderous actions. I actually listen to the whole like 30+ minutes of the tape until the end. It was actually chilling but in a terrifying way, that the members maybe allegedly forced to praise Jim Jones in "leading them into good life" because he was known infamously of brainwashing tactics around the cult. And especially the mothers screaming that their child is dying from drinking the "poison drink", and Jones had the balls to say "Mother please. Calm down. Wait for your turn" or something like that. And that final moments, when everything went silent and no screams were heard, was by far, the most terrifying part imo, gives me chills around my spine.

The fact that the last members Who survived positioned the bodies like that goes to show that they know their whole Belief system was bullshit.

Two of my uncles died in Jonestown. My grandparents knew that Jim Jones was bad news since they went to one of his sermons in San Francisco. They knew their sons were too far gone when they left for South Africa and never heard back. My mom told me something about it that I'll probably never forget. "Your grandpa never cried. He didn't even cry when the ashes of his two sons were in the closet."
