SATANISM & SRIA 2: Satanist Golden Dawn?

In Part I of Satanism & SRIA (here), we examined evidence indicating that SRIA Supreme Magus, John Paternoster (a Trinitarian Christian), wrote articles for and gave interviews to a magazine dedicated to Satanism, Magick and the Occult. The evidence indicates this caused a huge scandal and ensuing cover-up in SRIA, since the Anglican Chrurch condemns such things as Satanism.

According to the 2006 article you can read here, the scandal surrounding his involvement in the Occult following John R. Paternoster's becoming SRIA Supreme Magus was deliberately covered up by the highest echelons of SRIA:

Long time readers of the Golden Dawn Blog will recall how the Alpha Omega has been attacked in court and on the Internet for years by both overt and covert sock puppets of SRIA leaders.

They attack us because our order is Pagan led, ecumenical, nonsectarian, and does not share SRIA's segregationist position that tbe Rosicrucian tradition is for "Trinitarian Christians only."

We believe that everyone can benefit from Rosicrucian Magick and Alchemy, including not only Christians, but also Pagans, Jews, Muslims, Thelemites, Buddhists, Hindus, etc.

During the past nine months, the sock puppets fell silent and there was a long pause in attacks on the Alpha Omega and its leaders.

This permitted the A.O. to use our resources for truly important things - like creating a vast array of new and valuable resources for Self-Initiates and Solitary Magicians - including Personal Temples, dojo-style training in Ritual Magick, information on Magical Tools and free Ritual Magick coaching Webinars.

Immediately following publication of evidence of the SRIA Satanism scandal and ensuing cover-up, an "anonymous" sock puppet instantly roared back to life after nine long months of silence - spewing vulgar personal attacks not only on me, but also on my family:

..."an “unbiased” anthropologist (his wife)...McQuade’s recent article...a sickening dutch handjob..."  

"HOGD A+O grand poobah, conspiracy theorist, world’s worst scholar and walking informal fallacy David “I’m too sex magic for this shirt” Griffin has been busy of late."

The timing of this revival of sock puppetry is strong evidence of SRIA leadership pulling the strings of this "anonymous" sock. Proof of SRIA leaders' culpability followed immediately in the comments section of the article, published by a self-admitted SRIA sock.

"...hopefully [Griffin] will seek help but socio-pathic and anti-social behavior is rarely corrected as it usually requires a conscience to correct such defects of character. [Griffin] began this vigorous attack campaign the day the SRIA...opened a new website..."  

This smoking gun erases any remaining doubt and places full culpability for the "anonymous" attack blog directly on the shoulders of SRIA leadership. His veil of anonymity pierced, John Paternoster's ultimate responsibility for the "anonymous" attacks on my family has been unmasked.

SRIA leadership is clearly desperate to divert attention from the unmasking of Supreme Magus Paternoster's Satanism. I had little doubt from the outset that publishing evidence of Paternoster's Satanic involvement could result in SRIA sock puppets resuming attacks on the Alpha Omega again.

Vulgar personal attacks don't really matter though. SRIA Sock puppets have attacked the AO for years both in open court and from the shadows on the Internet - yet they have accomplished nothing - except to make the Alpha Omega the largest and leading Golden Dawn order in the world today.

Rest assured, I will not be deterred from exposing the festering Satanism that has infected the top levels of SRIA, no matter how many names SRIA sock puppets call the Alpha Omega, my family or me on the Internet.

But let me also assure SRIA Supreme Magus Paternoster, that unless SRIA sock puppets cease to attack the Alpha Omega and my family - evidence of Paternoster's involvement in Satanism will not be the final revelation of skeletons from the SRIA closet.


SRIA members have a right to know the truth. The time has come for SRIA leaders to end cover-ups and diversionary tactics, and instead give straight answers to their members to simple questions.

Here are first four highly relevant ones:

Rank and file SRIA members deservea straight answers from their leaders about these things without any further attempts at cover-up or diversion.

Is it not outrageous that, as Trinitarian Christians, SRIA members are being led by  self-professed Christians who write and give interviews to Occult and Satanic Magazines?

Should something like this really just be covered up? Or do SRIA members not deserve to know the full truth about their self-professed "Christian" leaders?
