Isis Osiris & Armageddon - Bill Cooper & Manly P Hall

Bill Cooper reads from Manly P Hall's book 'The Lost Keys Of Freemasonry' whilst interpolating his own interpretations as he goes..........Hall also throws in his thrupence on the subject.

'The pentagram is a five pointed star commonly associated with Wicca, Ritual magick, Satanism, & Masonry. The Pentagram has a long & complex history as a religious symbol. Found scrawled in caves of ancient Babylonia, the five pointed star was copied from the star shaped pattern formed by the travels of the planet Venus in the sky. The emblem remained popular through many cultures & time periods- it was called the pentalpha by the Greeks, who believed it had magical properties. For a time [300-150 B.C] a pentagram was the official seal of the city of Jerusalem...The pentagram was associated with the five wounds of Christ, & because it could be drawn in one continuous movement of the pen, the Alpha & the Omega as one. It was also an expression of a secret Gnostic heresy, found hidden here & there throughout Christian history- a symbol of Isis/Venus as the secret goddess, the female principle. The most notable instance of this symbolism is in the Arthurian Grail romances, which are Gnostic & kabbalistic teachings disguised as tales of knightly quests. The pentacle as a symbol of the feminine principle was embodied by the rose. The small, five petaled roses found in many Gothic cathedral’s ornamentation are not-so-secret pentagrams.'
