Comments by

Aleister

Crowley:

     Once more, the irrational incidents of the life of Christ become entirely normal when understood as the rubric of a ritual of initiation.

     I claim that my book establishes the outline of an entirely final theory of the construction of Christianity. The subject is far too vast and complex to be adequately discussed in this autohagiography. But I have no hesitation in referring the student to my essay for the solution of any and every difficulty which he may have found in the consideration of this matter.

     Having completed this treatise, I discovered myself to be inspired to write a number of short stories based on The Golden Bough. They are "The Hearth", "The God of Ibreez", "The Burning of Melcarth", "The Old Man of the Peepul Tree", "The Mass of St Secaire", "The King of the Wood", "The Oracle of Cocytus" and "The Stone of Cybele".
