The Council of Nine was enabling the Temple of Set and the Hunts to proceed on incompatible ways: Setians may enjoy the company of other Setians, and the Hunts may enjoy the company of Scott Locklin. Everyone's happy. >A question now for the good doctor: How else would an >enemy [Mr. Lupo] be considered EXCEPT unacceptable >and disgraceful? So you do not consider him an enemy? >What then do you consider him? Enemies can be multifaceted, including weak/powerful, rude/polite, coarse/calculating, temporary/permanent, overt/covert, and so forth. Some indeed can be persons of integrity and conviction, sincerely feeling that the Temple of Set is a "theological abomination to Allah or Jesus", etc. Locklin strikes me as a reasonably intelligent individual who never learned and does not respect either good manners or consideration for other people. Faced with any inconvenience, his habitual response is a tantrum of _ad hominem_ vulgarity. In this regard he is not so much the Temple of Set's [or my] enemy as he is his own. >the letters you and Lilith wrote to LaVey are exceedingly >reminiscent of what Kerry and Craig are feeling and have >been feeling. In 1975 Anton LaVey made a Church of Satan policy decision to sell its degrees, including the Priesthood of Mendes III*. Lilith and I [not to mention almost all the other Priesthood, Regional Agents, and active Satanists throughout the Church] immediately and explicitly resigned because of that decision. Since then my comments concerning Anton and the Church, finalized in _COS_, have been with the specific purpose of setting the historical record straight concerning the integrity and works of the authentic, original 1966-75 Church, and to preserve the true genius of Anton - and "the better angels of his nature", which it was my privilege to appreciate 1969-75. By contrast Hunt and Delf were expelled from the Temple of Set by unanimous decision of the Council of Nine for disgracing their Priesthood and Honorary membership respectively. Neither voiced the slightest criticism of any Temple of Set policy before their expulsion, and both have since sought to denigrate the Temple for no higher purpose than consolation of their embarrassed egos.
