Last Thursday some anons suggested we should have an Esoteric/Mysticism thread every Thursday as a new tradition. I do a lot of esoterics so I volunteered to remember and make the thread. Every Thursday afternoon/evening from now on, European time, I'll bake this general and see how long we can keep it up.
>Janny: How are esoterics a political subject?
>/pol/: Esoterics are the most important of all political subjects, because the verbal and written forms of modern political discourse are derived from the philosophical forms of Plato and Socrates, themselves derived from natural nonverbal semiotics that are more self-evident than any scientific theorem. Many politicians, in office and recently in office, are students of these schools. Bush, Kerry, and Mitterand are a good example of why this is relevant.
>No atheists allowed
>No Jews allowed
>No Masons allowed
An atheist, Jew, or Mason is infinitely more damned than a faithful sinner.
