A fool and his money are an evangelist’s best friends.

Wise Women's Words on Nature and her Rule of Life | Adelphiasophism:

The Adelphiasophist

We hope to publish a journal, The Adelphiasophist, when we have collected enough money to do so. Perhaps it will initially be an annual or appear sporadically but given your support, it could become a quarterly or monthly.

We propose to publish a list of Adelphiasophist Founders in the first issue—optionally names only, addresses if desired. For those who want to contact like minded people for joint activity, we will publish an optional contact address, but if any subscribing Founder wishes to remain anonymous, we will comply with their wishes.

Adelphiasophist Founders should send $50 (£30) to register themselves as a Founder. They will immediately receive a free AW! book (signed by Saviour Shirlie, if you wish) to keep or use as a gift, and will receive a copy or copies of the first issue of the Adelphiasophist when it emerges. Founders will be able to buy additional copies at cost price plus shipping to distribute to friends or sell to sympathizers.

So we are appealing for:

Note, we are not trying to be too ambitious to begin with, so we are not envisaging a bright glossy in the modern style but something less elaborate and tortuous on the Goddess—book format with mainly text and line drawings or half tones, printable on recycled paper.

If the response is poor, then the Goddess is probably doomed, but we shall publish whatever we can in booklet form and distribute them to the registered Founders.

Before you go, think about this…

The religious paradise of youth was a first attempt to free myself from the chains of “the merely personal”, from an existence dominated by wishes, hopes, and primitive feelings. Out yonder there was this huge world, which exists independently of us human beings and which stands before us like a great, eternal riddle, at least partially accessible to our inspection and thinking. The contemplation of this world beckoned as a liberation, and I soon noticed that many a man whom I had learned to esteem and to admire had found inner freedom and security in its pursuit. The mental grasp of this extra-personal world within the frame of our capabilities presented itself to my mind, half consciously, half unconsciously, as a supreme goal. Similarly motivated men of the present and of the past, as well as the insights they had achieved, were the friends who could not be lost. The road to this paradise was not as comfortable and alluring as the road to the religious paradise, but it has shown itself reliable, and I have never regretted having chosen it.
