Summary: To the reviewer from Dayton
Comment: You've obviously never used a Ouija Board. By the way, R.A.W. has done it again - telling it like it is (from his point of view, anyway). To those who aren't sure whether or not to take him seriously, just remember - Hermes was a trickster, but he was the only way out of the underworld. Welcome to Wonderland.
Rating: 4
Summary: Good
Comment: Yeah, yeah, I liked the book. What I don't get is the one review that said RAW was paranoid but then warned you not to play with a Ouija board because "you never know what you might dig up" (paraphrased). Since when did a stupid toy acquire strange, demonic powers? Now THAT sounds paranoid to me.

Summary: Absolutely Fascinating--Intellectual & Metaphysical Treatise
Comment: R.A.W. is my new favorite Writer. This man is a Genius. He is so far ahead of his time, that he will be Immortalized with Einstein, Crowley, etc. Robert Anton Wilson is one of the very few writers I have experienced, who sees through the smokescreens and delves into the mysteries, with a SMI(2)LE on his face
R.A.W. does not take himself too seriously, nor does he take society, government, religion or Secret Societies too seriously. This is one of the most Humorous books I have read recently--however, it will only be funny to those with a fairly decent knowledge base of; Physics, Quantum Physics, The Occult, Anthropology, Psychology, Secret Societies, Conspiracy Theories (see R.A.W.'s "Everything is Under Control"), and a good understanding of the fact that we are, indeed, living on "The Planet of The Apes."
R.A.W. hit the nail on the head, with his theory that we are "Domesticated Primates" --look around, and read the news.
The Essays, articles, quotes, reading lists, poetry, Scientific/Psychological breakdowns of the situation Domesticated Primates have gotten themselves into is fascinating and makes more sense than most of the theories circulating in the media, schools, etc.
I am studying Anthropology, and I have always studied various religions and Psychology...and I find "The Illuminati Papers" to be a revealing and important book to be circulated among the Eggheads. Most folks will not like it, because Americans do not read much and this book will make them feel inadequate. However, many people will "get it" and they will treasure this Tome of Wisdom.
"The Illuminati Papers" contains wonderful articles, essays, etc.--such as "The Abolition of Stupidity," "Quantum Mechanics as a Branch of Primate Psychology," "An Incident on Cumberland Avenue," "Beyond Theology: The Science of Godmanship," "Stupidynamics" & "Hey, man, are you only using half of your brain?"
This book seems small and appears to be a "quick read." However, this is a book that will often have you thinking more than reading. I often found myself wandering back to the pages, after some paragraph or line triggered a series of thoughts that carried me away into Contemplation for a while. I was astounded that I did not finish it in one or two sittings. This is definitely a Thinking person's book. I would raise a suspicious eyebrow at anyone who reads through it, swiftly....or look for Diplomas on their walls, stating that they are a Physicist, Neurologist, or Psychologist.... or, perhaps, a "Super Anthropologist." :-)Similar Books:
