When I finish with The Killing Joke. Will start in a couple of months. Have a big engineering project to finish first - have to keep the fiat money coming in to pay the bills for all those things I don’t really need.
Absolutely astonishing. I've never read an account of history such as this. It's putting the backstory context to your Killing Joke series and shows the unbroken thread of the Philosopher Kings.
I hope that one day I can write as well and as virtuously as you do. Thank you very much; reading your work has been a true pleasure. The way you write brings me joy, your humorous and elegant style of weaving in references from our times is magnificent. I also hope that one day I’ll have the honor of inviting you to dine at my table and meeting you in person. Once again, thank you very much.
The False Prometheus is anything and everything that claims to be the benefactor of man, or to be the benefactor's intermediary, but instead does great harm to man. It is the inversion of what is noble and benevolent and its goal is to enslave mankind to its own base desires. It could be a Mullah, a President, or a Pope. It comes in many forms and changes over time. To be successful in its undertakings, its followers cannot see it for what it truly is.
The False Prometheus succeeds as it is the master at harnessing that latent nature within man which compels him to prostrate before statues while reciting magical incantations, begging to be granted some petty request.
The False Prometheus is Hope. And for Hope to flourish, fear and despair must rule the land. You are living within a grand Richter experiment.
When are you planning to write Part 2 ??

I'm trying to understand who you are referring to as the False Prometheus... it seems a little vague...
False Prometheus = Anti Christ?
