Yet again falsely claims to be head of the Cicero's H:.O:.G:.D:. Accuses Pat Zalewski of fraud. Accuses Zalewski's and Thibeault's "Order of the Golden Dawn" of being a front for drug dealing, gun running and brainwashing. Compares them to a suicide cult. Accuses them of racism and anti-Semitism, along with Nick Farrell, Bob Gilbert and the "Order of the Rose Cross". Makes further reference to an ongoing SRIA conspiracy against him:

"This is the story of the shadowy world hidden behind the Golden Dawn - a world so strange and so corrupt that certain of those involved would stop at nothing to prevent you from hearing the rest of this saga." - David Griffin

"Since I began these revelations, I have been reviled and defamed on the internet. I have received numerous death threats. There have even been bizarre "accidents" which may or may not have been actual attempts on my life." - David Griffin

"...despite those who would stop at nothing to use the Golden Dawn for their own, corrupt ends." - David Griffin

"Most of this, sadly, has turned out to have been built on lies and deciet. Over the years, a very differentimage has emerged, asMr. Zalewksi's former house mates, friends, and colleagues began to speak out, painting a picture of something terribly wrong in Zalewski's "Order of the Golden Dawn," including allegations of a major drug ring,of gun running,and even cult-like brainwashing." - David Griffin

"This is not the first time that such allegations have surfaced around an esoteric order centered in Quebec, Canada either. Quebec Solar Temple Suicide Cult, Cult Leaders Joe Di Mambro and Luc Jouret. Quebec Order of the Golden Dawn, Pat Zalewksi and Martin Thibeault." - David Griffin

"Alleged Drug Kingpin, Martin Thibeault" - David Griffin

"Martin Thibeault:"Blacks will always rip you off!" - David Griffin

"There are other indications of racism in Zalewki/Thibeault's Quebec Golden Dawn as well." - David Griffin

"There are other indications of racism in Zalewki/Thibeault's Quebec Golden Dawn as well. The Yahoo group they operate is frequented by a host of trolls of the racist SRIA that have been attacking the Alpha Omega due to our tolerance of racial and religious diversity for years. These includeNick Farrell, listed as 3rd Grand Ancient of the anti-Semitic Order of the Rose and Cross. Pat Zalewski is also well known for his praise for SRIA Grand Archivist and OR+C Grand Exponent, R.A. Gilbert, infamous for his anti-Semitic rant on the OR+C website:" - David Griffin

"ORC Grand Archivist,Anti-Semite, R.A. Gilbert" - David Griffin

"Due to our tolerance of racial and religious diversity, Zalewski andracist SRIAtrolls vainly attempted to discredit our Golden Dawn lineages for years, using deliberate lies and misrepresentations on Zalewksi's Yahoo forum. These trolls were recently identified as SRIA operatives by the SRIA troll, Teletourgos." - David Griffin

"Pat Zalewksi himself has been throughly discredited in every regard." - David Griffin

"It would be bad enough were Pat Zalewksi's "Order of the Golden Dawn" is a merely a scam to sell a dubious correspondence course (which it is) for many thousands of dollars." - David Griffin

A Case of Apples Being Called Oranges

Frater Barrabbas - posting on behalf of David Griffin - calls Nick Farrell and Pat Zalewski illegitimate and "reconstructionists." Calls Nick Farrell a liar who is trying to destroy the Golden Dawn:

From: http://david-griffin-golden-dawn-magus.blogspot.com/2011/06/case-of-apples-being-called-oranges.html

"Nick Farrell has posted yet another article in a seemingly endless attempt to give credence to his reconstructionist approach to the Golden Dawn." - Frater Barrabbas

"Nick Farrell and Pat Zalewski: 'Your tradition will be reconstructed. Resistance is futile!'" - Frater Barrabbas

"I don’t know why Mr. Farrell continues to grasp at anything that would seem to redeem his perspective and make it legitimate, but perhaps he is haunted by guilt." - Frater Barrabbas

"I am going to give Nick the benefit of the doubt and state that I think he is making this comparison with the full knowledge that it is erroneous - in other words, Nick is purposefully telling falsehoods to his reading public." - Frater Barrabbas

"This is completely different from the reconstructionist, who, without the benefit of this direct transmission, can only assume their ideas are worthwhile, when in fact, they could be complete poppycock, or the result of nightmares caused by a bit of bad cheese." - Frater Barrabbas

"Shamanism is a living tradition, but Nick's self created Golden Dawn order is a reconstruction from a supposedly dead system." - Frater Barrabbas

"One has to wonder why Nick Farrell, who has blatantly and egregiously defamed his spiritual and magickal ancestors..." - Frater Barrabbas

"Nick is grasping at straws and seeking to somehow assuage his guilt, obviously because he suspects that the Golden Dawn is a true living tradition, but its just not the tradition that Nick claims ownership to. Mr. Farrell attempts in his books and posts to prove that the Golden Dawn is dead and that its founders were dupes and frauds. Nick wants to destroy the Golden Dawn so he can justify changing it in whatever manner he wants." - Frater Barrabbas

"All of this is quite sad and ridiculous, and we can easily dispense with Nick's feeble attempt at self-justification." - Frater Barrabbas
