I did look up the book and read what reviews I could find. Sounds too much of an investment in time and patience (over 800 pages of dense, 19th-century prose). The general thrust of the reviews is that this is kind of a Rorschach blot, with more to be read into it than from it. Nobody brought up any problem with Luciferianism, and I am suspicious that such a claim might be a libel.

All we are left with is you don't like Albert Pike and Trump didn't want his statue demolished. I don't see these positions as being contradictory, since we don't have Trump's argument on the subject.

Was Washington not a hero?
