A. In the past, the elite manipulated the population through a more
mystical belief system. In particular, there was the institution of
Sun worship (typified by deities such as Osiris and Set). However,
as antiquity gave way to modern history, this system of control
began to lose its effectiveness. During the sixteenth century, the
ruling class managed to co-opt a relatively new methodology of
truth discernment...science. Over the years, they would contaminate
this institution with their own virulent strains of
thought...metaphysical naturalism, radical empiricism,
Malthusianism, Darwinism, behaviorism, radical environmentalism,
etc. Many of these paradigms were derivative of their own occult
doctrines, thinly veiled to appear as objective science. All of
these concepts correlate in some way and, at some point, coalesce.
Together, they are gradually paving the way for the re-introduction
of the hidden god of the Ancient Mysteries.
