So is the Bible.

Like all things, they need to be read with context in mind. There's more than one way to interpret "do as thou wilt."
Looking at Crowley and what he did in his life says a lot. If you think we need more context surrounding the quote please share the context, don't just say we need more context.
Because "do as thou wilt" surely is something God operates by, isn't it.
YHWH operates by Torah https://seekingyhwh.org/torah/[url] and ... n&index=31. And look no quoting and expounding context, what a surprise.

If you put Crowley and the Bible in the same category you have serious problems.
Lol you missed my point entirely, my friend.

You brought up Satanists. If you ever read any of the writings of Anton LeVay, he makes the point that the church is the best friend Satan ever had. And he's right. Satanists regularly use the Bible and the hypocrisies of historical Christianity to lampoon it. So yeah, the Bible is pretty great for Satanists, too.

My point was it's about perspective and intent.
So you openly admit to twisting to meet your needs, got it ... And you still wont provide an example what a surprise ...
You lost me, man.

Sorry but what was lost on you? Scriptures and what people say are not for private interpretation. His life says a lot more than you trying to twist his words to be good.
