the stock-in-trade magicians’ formula is an old parody on ‘here is god’s body’ said at the elevation of the host at mass by an officiating (and officious) RC priest.

and you thought theurgy — summoning a god’s presence and forcing him to act through incantations — had died. the priests’ gesture of blessing (cub scout sign) derives from a bizarre mystery religion featuring Sabazius, who had a marked proclivity for penises.

if you can believe the dogma of transubstantiation; then you can believe anything. the RC’s dogmata on abortion and stem cell research are on a par with papal infallibility and the bodily assumption of mary. that is, one authoritative irrationality is as valid as another. only widespread xian political intimidation and unconstitutional tax breaks keeps RC from dying from pedophilia.

two members of the supreme court are right-wing RCs. how many media anchors, congressmen and senators follow suit?

millions still read late hellenistic magical texts and repeat their theurgic incantations — where is the enlightenment?
