The open or incomplete pentagram (Goethe; Taylor, tr., Faust: a Tragedy, 1889)

Text: none Quote: MEPHISTOPHELES. Well, we'll consider: thou canst gather My views, when next I venture in. Might I, perhaps, depart at present? FAUST. Why thou shouldst ask, I don't perceive. Though our acquaintance is so recent, For further visits thou hast leave. The window's here, the door is yonder; A chimney, also, you behold. MEPHISTOPHELES. I must confess that forth I may not wander, My steps by one slight obstacle controlled,--- The wizard's-foot, that on your threshold made is. FAUST. The pentagram prohibits thee? Why, tell me now, thou Son of Hades, If that prevents, how cam'st thou in to me? Could such a spirit be so cheated? MEPHISTOPHELES. Inspect the thing: the drawing's not completed. The outer angle, you may see, Is open left---the lines don't fit it.

The church against marriage...

Study: " Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women ..." Daniel 11:37 "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;  Forbidding to marry ..." 1 Timothy 4:1-3 Is the Roman Catholic against marriage? Does it disregard the desire of women? Does it disregard this God inbuilt desire for the binding of man and wife... and hence disregard marriage? Indeed it does! And what a price the church and the world has paid for this dishonour. It is written in countless books and upon the lives of countless individuals. This is just another sign of the church's contempt for the Creator. The other sign is its disregard of the Sabbath. Both institutions, the seventh-day Sabbath and marriage, were established by the Creator at Creatio
