There is no sense to them. And it is a mystery to me why Bullfrog and his/her alterego wwsorittyknowpoptoglove have yet to be delt with, there are some great ideas and posts on this forum, but it is geting to the point that it isn't worth the trouble of sorting throught all of the trash to get to them.
We are no longer barred. So welcome home and enjoy our Sanctuary.
Well I can't speak too much for BFR only to say that in my experience there is nothing more to be gained from schizophrenic word soup that you cannot get from them when they are medicated and intelligible. Point of fact is I have read posts where the person in question was intelligible, cogent, and made excellent points and provided wonderful information. The problem was those types of posts ceased to be the norm several months ago and what we got left with was an unintelligible word soup about the matrix and computers. As for Zelda and Emma, not starlets but one of the last moderators to run this site (into the ground) and one of her groupies. Anyway the point being there is a fairly extensive archive of BFR's posts if you feel that you can gather any meaning from them but, there will be no more posts by them.
I think it is important though to address some of the things you said in your post. Firstly, I never accepted an occult explanation for mental illness. I think it's stretching things to blame a deep connection to the cosmos to a chemical imbalance in the brain. Sometimes the simple explanation is the best one. Secondly I've always found that unmedicated and unmaintained mental illness is dangerous in occult studies. An adept should be strong and sound of mind, even if they need a chemical agent to help them achieve that mental fortitude. The forces, entities, and introspection involved can exacerbate existing conditions and actually bring to the surface potential illness. Anyone thinking of beginning a serious occult study should have a psychiatric evaluation to make sure their mind is fit enough on it's own to tackle such things. Lastly there is a part of the human brain that has a deep seated need to make sense of things. It's impossible to shut off and difficult to ignore. It is that part of our brain that makes us stare at a seemingly random arrangement looking for the pattern to it. Sometimes it makes us see meaning and pattern where there is only randomness and nonsense.
If you find enlightenment in the ramblings of the mad then so be it. I won't discourage you from your path. I simply think it is necessary to present multiple sides of everything to allow all others seeking wisdom to thoroughly examine the issue from multiple points of view. You are welcome here to study as you please provided you follow the simple rules we have.
Nope there will be no deletion. Our membership is aware that there is an ignore feature available if they no longer want to read the BFR backlog. As long as the post is not terribly disruptive I try not to delete anything since the old mods here were a bit deletion happy which resulted in a gutting of our archives.
I am trained in counseling and some psychiatry, and do the majority of my work with the mentally ill. I also have a couple of friends with schizophrenia, and I must say, I think he's faking. He may suffer from some other mental illness, or from a desperate need to spew nonsense all over these fora, but most schizophrenic word salad I've encountered, while nonsensical, at least makes sense in terms of sentence structure etc. The sentence may be "Last night the aliens came through my window and masturbated into my hair while the CIA recorded it", but it's usually correct in terms of grammar and the structuring of their sentences. He could possibly be on a lot of drugs or drunk? The singleminded devotion to either promoting or destroying the COS, which he seems to call Hells Angels, and initially I thought he was talking about the biker club, seems inconsistent with schizophrenia as well. Ah well, I see he's finally been banned. Now I can post here without him immediately following every one of my posts with some nonsense about me being a "sheep" and not following witchcraft according to his definition of it, due to my Thelemic orientation. Ah, relief.
I once spent half an hour trying to read his sentences (if you could call it that. What really bugs me though is that he posts what seems like 100 times a day! He's like Jedwood!
