So, perhaps the most unique aspects of the library are up front:

>A.'.A.'.
This is the most complete Thelema folder on the face of the earth. Over in "Aleister Crowley" I've collected the Yorke Microfilms of the Warburg Collection, his unpublished documents, diaries, typescripts, commentaries, manuscripts, holographs, monographs etc. This includes highly redacted ritual materials.

I also have over in "Libri" a reconstruction of Breeze's Equinox 3:10. Moreover I have the first ever scan of Motta's Equinox 5:4, Sex and Religion.

In "OTO" and "State of the Caliphate" I have the actual audio of the Election Minutes for Bill Breeze, as well as the conversation between him and Grady where they figured out how to take legally assume ownership of the OTO as a concept.

The Alchemy folder holds the entire Manly P. Hall alchemical manuscript collection.
>>
>>2668555
>555

My Chumbley folder is probably the most complete possible on the internet, but I've not uploaded my personal collection of materials, though I think I've posted most of them at one point or another. It includes "Lover's Call to the Angel of Wytchblood" from one of Mike Howard's books which is both a redaction and expansion on the concepts of IA and KU in the Dragon Book of Essex.

The Eastern folder contains the most complete Abhinavagupta collection, including the first ever scan of Tantraloka in the English Language, which I posted here as soon as I scanned it. It's the magnum opus of the Uttara Kaula Trika and can be considered as something of their core text or bible.

There are also some choice tidbits in the Vajrayana section w/r/t Kurukulla.

My Egyptian folder contains what I'm fairly certain is the only coherent digital edition of the Pyramid Texts, though I should probably scan my copy.
>>
>>2668574
My Enochian folder may not be the most complete, but it is the most well sourced. Combined with my Sloane MSS folder, it's the only public centralization of the Dee's Enochian manuscripts alongside of Ashmole's later experimentation outside of private collections.

This includes the Grimoire of Arthur Gauntlet, source manuscripts for Lemegeton and others, and other cornerstones of the Western tradition in the hand that wrote them.

My Freemasonry files contain the complete Swedenborgian rite, and the original Bavarian Perfectibilist (Illuminati) documents in their native German. I used to provide the first English translation of the texts, but it got DMCA'd. I highly recommend supporting the publishers of that text in any case.

It also contains the SRIA rites, as well as the Collecteana containing the full rites of Memphis and Mizraim instead of Yarker's highly redacted lists of grips, knocks, keywords, and signs.

All right everyone stop shitposting.

Let's talk unironically about Jews you respect and admire.

I present to you Golda Meir.

>born in Kiev under the Rus Empire
>lived during active pograms
>5 of her siblings died during her childhood
>her father had to get them OUT
>moved to America and worked hard in a railyard to bring them to America
>opened his own store and frequently entertained guests
>Golda exposed to debates on Zionism, literature, women's suffrage, trade unionism early on
>became a kibbutznik in 1921
>stays active in politics, family moves to Jerusalem
>Golda Meir was one of 24 signatories of the Israeli Declaration of Independence on May 14, 1948
>founding mother of Israel
>meets John F. Kennedy
>meets the Pope
>becomes Prime Minister of Israel
>meets Nixon
>Munich Massacre of 1972 happens
>11 dead Israeli athletes
>Orders Mossad to hunt down and lol every last motberfucker involved

Operation Wrath of God! She retired after the Yom Kippur War and was eventually buried in Jerusalem.

Now I don't care what anyone's politics are, you cannot argue that Golda Meir wasn't absolutely BASED

I was caught between two people arguing about this over Easter break.

My brother's girlfriend, a typical SJW and has several female muslim friends was virulently defending it saying that it's feminist etc. etc. etc. while my sister and her boyfriend (and he works in the middle east quite a lot) were saying that it's a very misogynist faith etc.

You know, usual sides to that argument. What did come out is that none of them actually -knew- what the books and Hadiths say. So I was wondering, what is actually said in the Qu'ran about this?

Why does French sounds/looks so weird compared to the rest of Romance languages? Is it because of the Celtic or Germanic influence?

Protip: The Romans of the Late Empire spoke nothing like the Romans of the Early Republic. Languages change, it's not a case of "bastardisation" or "decline", it's just what languages do.

Except in the case of French, that "language" was caused by God to punish the world for rejecting him.
