What is sorcery? One definition is that sorcery is the use of sounds to create an artificial reality. Everything today is sorcery, because everything today is artificial. In a man-made world, reality can be whatever man wants it to be. An artificial world – with artificial cities and artificial food and artificial social morality and artificial economics and artificial global crises – is a world with the artificial delusion that it exists outside of God. And even then, it’s the artificial god of the Freemasons and Donald Trump and Dwight Eisenhower that you see on the dollar bill.

When I was a young man, I called myself a Christian, but what I really worshipped was rock n roll. One of the greatest forms of sorcery is music, and it was one of the first rebellions against God in Genesis 4:21. Music casts a spell over you. If you do not believe me, play “Run Around Sue” by Dion and watch people move involuntarily. Music changes your feelings and emotions. It makes you want things you did not want.
