"The cult of the goat has a long and distinguished history, to the point
where it has become an integral part of our society, an aspect of both
pop-culture and underground subversion. Centered around an
anti-civilization, anarchist platform, goat-culture tends to attract the
youth, particularly those youth who are especially frustrated and angry
at the status-quo, but too lazy to do anything about it. With nihilism
and apathy in hand, goat-children focus on pure hedonistic indulgence,
gluttony to the point of self-destruction, with no particular goal in
mind except perhaps a unspoken desire to satisfy the Goatman and his
incessant demand for flesh. As such, there are no organized rituals
within the cult -- however, it seems clear that at least in our present
culture, drug-induced malicious behavior is an essential facet of the
goat-experience. There also appears to be a unholy regard for one
particular drug, DXM, which members claim brings one spiritually closer
to Goatman more effectively than any other substance. Coined "sangre de
christo" by those within the inner-sactum, cough syrup both temporarily
and, disturbingly, permanently alters one's perception of reality, one's
ability to deal with those outside the goat-herd, and perhaps, even
one's ability to achieve and maintain an erection. Another drug of
choice appears to be ephedrine (aka Aunt Ephie), which, besides it's
standard stimulatory effects, also causes users to feel as if their body
was made of wood -- in combination, DXM and ephedrine can cause a
dangerous sense of invulnerabilty, which in the context of Goatman's
moral vacuum, should strike terror into anyone concerned with
maintaining the fabric of civilization. As a last note, rumors have
surfaced that some especially deranged members have participated in an
extremely volatile pseudo-ritual termed the "three-drug night" --
following ingestion of several beers, members dose up on DXM, once
hallucinogenic effects begin to surface the initiate proceeds to smoke
massive doses of marijuana in order to intensify the coming experience.
At this point, the individual is entirely isolated from this dimension,
fully immersed in the womb of Goatman, a wound on the flesh of this
world. Members believe that if enough children participate in this
absurd activity, the blood of the earth will flow into the Goatman's
maw, thus heralding in a new age of pure spiritual cannibalism.
It should also be noted that the cult of the goat, up until present times, has been primarily a rural phenomenon. From ancient times, when hoards of mad women, induced to a sexual frenzy by the flute of Pan and the wine of Dionysius, would roam the countryside in search of shepards to rape and consume, to the current age where bands of hill-billy youth in backwoods Pennsylvania and Upstate New York (the new spiritual apex of goat-culture) speed down dirt-roads with baseball bats and cartons of eggs, the Goatman has always preyed upon those closest to the earth, farthest from the city-leaders and "law", preyed upon those with the greatest sense of abandonment and loneliness -- catching the individual at his weakest moment, in an isolated wood with a wine/THC-soaked mind, no escape available the Goatman offers a solution when fear is at its height -- join him and you will lose fingers now, but you will inherit the ruins of mankind later. That the Goatman has recently infiltrated the World Wide Web, in a clear attempt to reach a larger and increasingly bored youth-audience, should send a clear signal of danger to those in the Ivory Tower that revolt, nay Revolution, may be at hand." - haz |
