Has anyone examined the songs on the Rolling Stones' Her Satanic Majesty's Request"?
This is the album that the Stones supposedly released in response to Sgt. Pepper.
Notice the title? It's an obvious underhanded reference to the Queen (or what she represents). I'm not sure, but it may also be the first album they released after the death of Brian Jones.
Just thought I'd "turn you on"!

i believe it's "THEIR satanic majesty's request". B.J.'s last album was 'beggar's banquet", which followed tsmr. but i agree it's a potentialy interesting link to follow up. unfortunately i don't know that album.

yeah, i heard that around this time period there was some connection with kenneth agner the filmmaker and avowed satanist. he did some project on aleister crowley's old abode in italy or something.
to make a beatles connection--
lennon was interested in crowley. he's one of the "guests" on "sgt. peppers".
wasn't marianne faithful also involved? and wasn't keith richard's girlfriend at the time a certified witch?

As I understand it, Crowley was not actually a Satanist, and witches are not either. Generally witches are more "natural" magicians and most only practice for good and not evil.

The lines are pretty blurry, from what I gather.
Some contend that Crowley-ism and witchcraft are merely satanism in disguise. The practitioners themselves might not even realise it.
I'll put it this way;
Crowley's main edict was "Do what though wilt; that is the whole of the law."
Seems pretty sound. But compare that to
"Not I, but Christ in me."
..and it makes me wonder.....

Witchcraft is not Satanism. Christians like to believe that anything except Christianity is evil. Would you like to tell that to victims of the Inquisition? How about victims of the KKK? They (the KKK) see themselves as very good Christians simply doing God's will on Earth. And don't get me started on the entire Bible Belt in the US.

They (the KKK) see themselves as very good Christians simply doing God's will on Earth. And don't get me started on the entire Bible Belt in the US. First of all: the inquisition could hardly be considered living up to Christian values. The KKK is more of a White supremacist organization than a Christian one. They tend to usurp the Christian label in order to appeal to a traditionalist constituency. The KKK would be calling themselves Muslims if Islam were the majority & traditional religion of the region. The so called Bible Belt is basically the areas in which the Southern nation (or Southrons as they are also called) is situated. Witchcraft is indeed Satanism. Witcrafts uses Satanic spells & rituals which tend to call upon dark forces. Even a "good" Witch must learn these spells & rituals. Some controversial authors even believe that all religions -including Christianity- are of Satanic origin.

The Klan was founded by the crypto-Luciferian Scottish Rite Lodge of Freemasonry. By the 1960s it was basically being run out of the FBI under the control of another 33-degree SR mason, J. Edgar Hoover. This is the same outfit that controls the police and judiciary in Britain and other fun things like the NASA Apollo program and Dealey Plaza.
Anyway, it is thus almost certain that the Klansmen-with-a-firecracker were just bogeyman used to scare The Beatles and thus make them all the more pliable.
