David Bowie, Satanist

KIDIST PAULOS ASRAT writes:

I do think David Bowie was a talented pop musician, who did try to go beyond the “pop.” But as he neared old age and death, he began to go “to the other side” as they say. And I think he followed a satanic cult. His last video, which is understandably full of anguish about death, is really an ode to Satan – his “next” meeting place. It is creepy and evil.  Bowie went to the devil.

Another fascinating thing about Bowie is that he was married to this Somali model, Iman. I don’t think she denounced her Muslim background, and Bowie never “converted.” But he must have been influenced by Mohammed to some extent. He couldn’t go to “organized” religion, but he chose a parallel belief system influenced by the death cult of Islam. Anyway, that is how I see it.

He had a homosexual relationship with Mick Jagger (oh, that was his youth, say some), but he was married, and he admitted he and his then wife were bisexual.

It is the now-common behavior of the modern pagan promiscuous individual. Anything goes for stimulation. And this gets associated at some point with some kind of “spirituality.”

People cannot do without a higher being, beyond the mundane. Atheism doesn’t really exist, since atheists do believe in something “bigger,” even if it is in the “greatness” of the human being – i.e. they make gods out of humans.

Here is that stupid “conservative” writer Debbie Schlussel posting on Bowie, who finds it admirable that Bowie performed in Israel during the Intifada. So what. Bowie performs in Israel, where modern Jews jump up and down to his music. Just like any modern youth. And I bet his wife encourages him to do so, to deflect from her Muslim background. Shclussel hasn’t even watched Bowie’s last, demonic, video, from her article of two days ago!

Thanks for your comments.

You write:

As Margaret Galitzin’s article shows, he went over to the other side earlier.

You mention his talent. I know you realize these things, but there had to be great talent there or he wouldn’t have succeeded. There had to be some good in his music, which doesn’t redeem it. The devil would be an idiot if he recruited artists with no talent, musicians who create works with no mass appeal. When someone says Bowie was “satanic,” that doesn’t mean he was entirely bad. Nothing is entirely bad. People have a hard time with that concept. I once did. They think evil must be pure in order for it to be evil. But it is always mixed with good.

“In the villa of Ormen, in the villa of Ormen,” begins Bowie’s Blackstar. Ormen being a Norwegian word for serpent. There’s no question at all where Bowie is leading the listener in terms of where he wished himself to be led.

Along the shore the cloud waves break,
The twin suns sink behind the lake,
The shadows lengthen
In Carcosa
Strange is the night where the black stars rise,
And strange moons circle through the skies,
But stranger still is
Lost Carcosa

—The King in Yellow, Act I, Scene II

Then, of course, we can wonder if Bowie pulled the idea of a ‘blackstar’ from the peculiar and dark fiction of W. Chamber’s, The King in Yellow:

Bowie was described as a highly intelligent, ‘knowing’ person, neither male nor female. Is this not the essence of the Serpent in the Garden? Perhaps the Apocryphal books of the Old Testament are not inspired, but I cannot help but remember in the Book of Adam and Eve, when Lucifer once again attempted to pollute the bloodline by trying to seduce Adam, rather than Eve, and the book notes he did so by appearing as a lovely woman.

Your comments about Evil are especially appreciated here, Laura. Primary Evil, in its most potent form, will encompass all manner of things we consider ‘good’, for it cannot help to do so, as the only way in which it can really change man’s mind is by convincing man that Primary Evil itself is the True Good, that God seeks to deny us any further ‘evolution’ of ourselves by hiding things from us, that this is ‘unfair’ and if we’d follow Lucifer’s plan, we would have all we wish. Of course, this is ridiculous, but Primary Evil works Hubris from Envy with pure, utter brilliance.

If China Girl, a song about heroin, comes on the radio, I admit I crank it, despite knowing the meaning. Evil is often charismatic, talented and overtly seductive.
