The Business Of Religion, Self-Hypnosis + High Seas Piracy & Freedom

I muse on how religion is both big business and a control system. Then describe how you can get the same high that religion brings believers using self-hypnosis. You can cut out the Ten Commandments and get direct to the endorphin-driven religious “ecstasy.”

I move to how, during the Age of Reason, authors like Daniel Defoe eschewed the control system of religion and were essential deists, who believed in a Supreme Being, come creator, but that was it – no tenets and no creed.

After that I get into stealing Bill Gates’ luxury, ocean-going yacht and becoming pirates, and setting up a freedom colony in Madagascar or some far-flung island in the Pacific.

I’m Jimmy Lee Shreeve, the writer and journalist behind the mask of Doktor Snake. My work has appeared in The Independent, Daily Telegraph, Sunday Telegraph, Financial Times, and other publications on both sides of the Atlantic. Years ago, I was mentored by Earl Marlowe, a Trinidadian hoodoo master and world-music singer who taught me that magic and psychology are two languages for the same thing. From those roots grew Doktor Snake’s Voodoo Spellbook and a lifelong study of how consciousness shapes probability. Today I write, record, and speak from the English lands of Suffolk — an area thick with barrows, ruins, and old currents of power — translating those currents into modern tools for clarity, luck, and self-command. My aim is simple: to help you master the operating system between your ears. View all posts by Doktor Snake
