It&amp;#39;s certainly true that what we&amp;#39;re looking at here is the application of forces in conscious betrayal to what we might think of as the Divine - but of course, that is Lucifer, whose pride was his downfall. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I find it amazing that so few people felt what a terrible ritual was enacted right in front of them. I heard someone mutter that the ceremony &amp;#39;was a little dark&amp;#39;, but that was the extent of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Curiously, since you mention songs, the Arctic Monkeys played their hit &amp;#39;I Bet That You Look Good On The Dancefloor&amp;#39; with the repeated refrain: &amp;quot;I bet that you look good on the dancefloor, Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984, From 1984!&amp;quot; which is clearly a nod at George Orwell&amp;#39;s &amp;#39;Big Brother&amp;#39; society book 1984.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, the cauldron gathers into an eye, where the meaning is rather succinctly depicted here on youtube (49seconds of video): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGAAULLAGZQ&amp;amp;feature=player_detailpage&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Certainly, the whole ritual looks like a perversion, raising the devil or beast as master, and aiming toward a controlled society (even to the point of genetic manipulation). Apologies, long post.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/9888300/1785751423445142184/comments/default/658708561699862878'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/9888300/1785751423445142184/comments/default/658708561699862878'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://theopenscroll.blogspot.com/2012/08/part-35-2012-london-olympics-burning.html?showComment=1344191237507#c658708561699862878' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='https://theopenscroll.blogspot.com/2012/08/part-35-2012-london-olympics-burning.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9888300.post-1785751423445142184' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9888300/posts/default/1785751423445142184' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-965594800"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="11:27 AM"/></entry></feed>
