It took me a while to figure out what I was looking at, but that thing on the right really does look evil.

Yeah, not to mention In His Own Write and Lennon's other books.
About the Awful I was bored on 9th of Octover 1940 when, I believe, the Nasties were still booming us led by Madalf Heatlump (Who only had one). Anyway they didn't get me. I attended to varicous schools in Liddypol. And still didn't pass-much to my Auntie's supplies. As a member of the most publified Beatles my and (P, G, and R's) records might seem funnier to some of you than this book, but as far as I'm conceived this correction of short writty is the most wonderfoul larf I've ever ready. God help and breed you all.

Crowley is relevant to the Beatles. The Beatles, apparently, used mirror images on the Sgt Pepper cover, and they used reversals in their movies/videos and songs. I don't know how deeply they may have been involved in the writings of Crowley, but I do think it is fair to say that *at least* one of them was a FIGURATIVE 'Son of Magickian', i.e. they were influenced by his work and they adopted some of his stylings.
Is it a further stretch to conclude that Faul is the LITERAL son of Crowley? Sure it is, but to compare it to the Don Knotts theory in terms of relative absurdity, I would more likely believe that Faul is a son of Crowley over Knotts replacing Epstein.
If someone wanted to delve into the possibility of Son of Magickain being relevant, go ahead, I don't plan to do it myself, as I'm not sure it's possible, but I don't see a reason to come down hard on anyone from testing the waters no matter where it might lead, as long as there is a shred of relevance, and here, in this case, I think there is.
Ok, I for one have known about the Beatles being into Crowley for a long time (pre-Rotten Apple). I never said anything bad about people wanting to explore this avenue, and I never said that there was no relevance to the Crowley connection. But to completely skip over tons of possibilities and jump straight into Crowley being Paul/Faul's father is just idiotic.
Second of all, I never even said "Don Knotts" at all. Never compared anything to Don Knotts, and I don't believe in the Don Knotts theory. Not sure where you got that, but oh well.
So yeah, Crowley is relevant, but instead of exploring possibilities like "Were the Beatles Crowley-obsessed satanists, who started the backwards stuff to encourage his teachings?", people are instead trying to force links together of McCartney being the son of Crowley.

You can spend forever exploring ridiculous/baseless possibilities or... It's called Occam's Razor, use it.

Yeah I ridiculed the Son of Magician thing because before I knew it many of you were ready to call Crowley as being Faul/Paul's father... You came to this conclusion... based on an anagram, found in a user video on youtube... Several jumps in logic there.

There is no symbol for "Kou," it's "Ko" + "u" So that's how it would look in Japanese, and below it is spelled phonetically. When writing in Romaji (i.e. writing Japanese words with English letters) you leave out the "y" and instead just put "u".

Ok, for the last time... Kouchuu is the Japanese word for beetle. The first character is "ko." Not "Ku"

Wups... I didn't know it was you who posted the link Coconutfudge.
Anyways, it's not a big deal. Those trolls would have just found this place with Google regardless. Plus as I said, good comes with the bad.

So Jude... How much does it pay to be on the IAAP marketing team?
I kid, I kid!
On a more serious note: I don't think that some of the PWR publicity is necessarily always a good thing. I watched 2 trolls pop up today, with vulgar usernames and posting vulgar messages on this forum. This is probably because somebody posted a link to this forum under IAAP's comments.... But I guess you gotta take the good with the bad.

Well then why would IAAP not read them himself? We know he isn't an old british guy.... Why go through the trouble of tracking down some guy that people are going to hear and say "Oh that sounds like so-and-so!"
It's either legit, or he's trying to trick us.
Yes I know, I'm the captain of the USS Obvious... But still!

I was thinking... The old guy in RA #42 says that his breaking rank will come as a shock, but I really don't see how that could happen since we don't even know who it is that is speaking...
IAAP must know that if he really wants people to believe him, he will tell us the name of the speaker.

Yeah, I see what you mean Jarv... Like that "Son of a Magician" crap.
He could have pulled that out of his ass for all we know, yet I witnessed lengthy hypothesis after lengthy hypothesis. Before I knew it, Aleister Crowley became Paul's father....

Actually, the Japanese word for beetle is "kouchuu."
It's a slight difference, but look at how much we've stretched things already?
Googoo gajoob became kookookuchuu....kouchuu became kuchuu...

I'm gonna go with "b," but "c" is not outside the realm of possibility.
He could have plans for a 3 part Paul is Dead trilogy.

I sort of agree with Jarv.
I don't trust IAAP very much. He (IMO) sometimes shows us cool stuff, but alot of the time it's just a wacky slideshow coupled with spooky sounds.
I mean seriously, I could go pick out several Rotten Apples that have told us absolutely nothing at all.
So, I'm keeping my eye on IAAP. I'll watch his videos, see what they say and mull it over.

I have no problem with IAAP... Unless he wants me to buy something to find out "the truth," then I think we'll all see that he's full of it.

I bet I could find some historical figure that looks similar to me. Doesn't make us related.
