Noses of God

Subject: Noses of God (Summary of AC's polytheism)

Here are the results of the Crowley's Favorite God Poll.
The numbers represent the number of books, essays, letters, rituals, etc.
that deal with the God in Question, rather than an absolute number of
mentions. Offhand, I would say that Egyptian was his favorite flavour, and
Horus his favorite God, though Ra and Mercury would appear to Place and Show.
I threw a couple of Norse Pantheon types in so as to make the Luciferians feel
better. Also, strictly speaking, I suppose that Set is part of the Egyptian
Pantheon too, but the number of works dealing with him would not significantly
affect the Egyptian Factor anyway.

Caveats: I do not represent this to be an exhaustive search. Exhausting,
yes, but Crowley's writings fill many shelves and filing cabinets, and the
time involved (not to mention some travel) would be prohibitive to getting a
complete answer inside of a year. This sampling is only from material that has
been recorded electomagnetically. Luckily, most publishers of current editions
have done their typesetting on computers, and so we have the majority of
Crowley's books now in print in the index. It also means that his early
poetry, now almost completely out of print and/or demand, is not represented
as well as might be hoped.
