Every perception is a gamble, in which we see part, not all, (to see all requires omniscience) and “fill in” or project a convincing hologram out of minimal clues. We all intuitively know the obvious and correct answer to the Zen koan, “Who is the Master who makes the grass green?” – Robert Anton Wilson, Natural Law

The “Natural Law” debate has been raging around anarcho-libertarian circles for some time now. Well folks, it’s all over. “Natural Law” died an unnatural death, murdered (“executed” if you insist) by notorious stand-up comic Robert Anton Wilson. If you enjoyed pamphleteering in the old sense of the word, unabashed rhetorical mud-slinging on a high intellectual level, you will want to examine the murder weapon: Natural Law; or Don’t Put A Rubber On Your Willy. – Hakim Bey

An appropriately savage attack on the “natural law” doctrines of certain “libertarian” pundits. – The Egoist

Today is Maybe Day, a day inspired by the late writer Robert Anton Wilson. It was his hope that on this day people of all creeds and beliefs would come together and chant, “Jesus is the only son of God, maybe” “Hear O Israel, the Lord thy God is one, maybe” and “There’s no God but Allah, maybe, and maybe Mohammed is his prophet.” At this point the world would suddenly become a far saner place. – John Higgs, writing in The Guardian“

A fantastic compendium of pre-9/11 conspiracy knowledge. Get it HERE.

“Before the X-Files, before alt.conspiracy, there was Robert Anton Wilson and his legendary Illuminatus! Trilogy. Now this avatar of conspiriology, renowned for his razor wit and progressive philosophy, takes you on a fascinating, eclectic ride through what Wilson has termed the “Cultic Twilight” where conspiracy theories flourish.

Everything Is Under Control covers the range of Wilson’s kaleidoscopic knowledge, from John Adams to the Voronezh (former Soviet Union) UFO sighting, the Campus Crusade for Cthulhu to the Mothman prophecies, and everything in between. What do the Freemasons, the Kennedys, and Princess Diana have in common? All are at the center of gigantic conspiracy theories with incredibly complex and endlessly multiplying twists, turns, highways and byways. Arranged by alphabetical entries which include cross-references to other entries in the book and also provide addresses to related sites on the Web, this book is truly interactive–you can dip in, read through, or follow one of the URLs from an interesting entry onto the internet.”
