There's a satanic orgy about half way through with some real loving action. :fp:

Crowley wanted to be the biblical beast of 666 fame, but he was just a dirty old man.
Not that that's a bad thing ... :coffee:

Magic is real. Well his definition of it, "causing change to occur in conformity with will", is . It's pretty broad though. Other than that what's to know? He cheated at chess, was a degenerate and loved to make an exhibition of himself. His cultivated notoriety became rather pitiful in the end.

Must see? I have read enough about Crowley to slot him into the set of people I know enough about to conclude that I know enough about them already. I certainly won't spend another hour finding out more about him.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops. - Stephen J. Gould

I avoid knowing too much about the men/women behind the myth since time and again it is a sad pathetic little man/woman behind the curtain making all the noise.
