This is such a brilliant, brilliant piece! And I agree, there are so many angles here, so much food for thought, that this truly is work in progress. But what excellent work.
Thank you for these enthusiastic remarks! And, of course for your follow up piece. I've had a lot of interesting feedback from various sources suggesting that I have touched a nerve somewhere along the way here. It is very encouraging, because you never know how far your work will travel, or the extent of its impact. Thanks again, and not just for this, but for all the work you're doing.
It seems more and more about the true nature of the 'Babylonian' / "Beast" system is being revealed, albeit only to those with "eyes to see" and "ears to hear". Evil hides, evil lurks, in the shadows, awaiting its prey. "Walk in the light… and you will have fellowship with the Son and the Father." Let us keep waking in the light!
Sage Hana, on this platform, frequently cites this movie as the most terrifying movie of all time. I think I can see why after reading your excellent piece.
I was pregnant with my first child in 1968 and I went to see this movie. It certainly made an impression. It was so evil. Then in 1973/74 while pregnant with my second child ,The Exorcist came out and I, still being an immature person in my 20s, went to see that one. Now that I see evil is everywhere I have no need to go to movies to experience evil.
I was reluctantly induced to watch The Exorcist as a youngster. I was utterly disgusted; when my crowd of school friends sat down to watch the sequel, I wasn’t with them. To this day, I refuse to watch horror movies!

Great and thoughtful writing, I’m going to have to watch the movie now. Sounds like a perfect correlation to the current situation.
The fog of deception lifts though, and soon all with see the master behind the curtain... lol.
Thanks Thorsteinn for directing me to this great piece.
Cheers Craig.
Many thanks for your comments, and I hope your remark about the fog of deception turns out to be right!
What an apropos analogy, thank you!
You're welcome, thanks for reading and commenting. We keep seeing more and more allusions to this film daily.
Superb exposition. Thank you; well done.
