Balanone's Temple of Set FAQ
3.0 -- Religion3.1 -- The Temple of Set as a ReligionIs the Temple of Set a religion? Yes, although belief in the religion is not required of I° or II° members. See the REF document for some discussion why I consider the Temple of Set to be a religion.
3.2 -- Set
You may also be interested in essays concerning the Prince of Darkness provided by Balanone (The Prince of Darkness) and High Priest Don Webb (Concerning our Patron). 3.3 -- The Gift of SetThe Gift of Set means so many different things depending upon whom you speak to. To some it's the gift of Intelligence, to some it's Consciousness, to some it's the ability to step back from the current moment/place to see/think about what's happening. To some it's the ability to work (or at least conceive of) magic. etc. The Gift of Set is whatever happens to separate us (those with potential) from animals (those without quite as much potential), which is one of the grey areas that haven't been clarified very well (some of us not seeing very much difference between humans and "higher" animals). There is more discussion of the Gift of Set in the REF document. Site Links
