The McGD(R) of Ronald McFarrell and other franchisees of the McGoldenDawn(R) "Cult of Reconstructionism" are only the latest McDonaldizers of Occulture, but the Golden Dawn is not just any Order! In fact this rot is now eating at what has long represented the public face of the Western Mystery TRADITION.
Even though the McGD propaganda offensive still spins itself into frenzies of purple prose pre-prepared by the McGD lobby for release just as the final plank in McFarrell's several volume political tract hit the streets, the Traditional Golden Dawn Defence Team has stood strong.
No amount of name-calling, mud-slinging, and rote denial of matters of fact has quenched the iron resolve of the Alpha Omega in drawing a line for traditional GD orders in the sand against ALL who deny our Way the right to exist unmolested, with Secrets intact, and our members respected in their Path of choice.
The agenda currently in use by the McDonaldizing franchisees is hallmarked by the blindness of Fundamentalism, which always requires that blinkers be worn to exclude any valid point of view coming from the marginalized Other.
What has given McGD added force in warping the debate is that post-modernist "culture" is itself fully in support of such agendas against traditional spirituality, and selectively redefines "that which is rational" to suit itself. This has become so all-pervasive in modern life as to represent an unconscious web of assumptions.
McGD(R) Secret Chief - Raphael McFallenAngel(R)
As a traditional Golden Dawn order, the Alpha Omega must be forever wary of this onslaught generated by popular culture's fear and denigration of tradition, which stands in stark contrast to the fast food mentality of "ME! MORE! NOW!" - as this is entirely underpinned by egotism, greed and impatience.
It becomes ever harder to successfully train aspirants who arrive at our doorsteps drenched in these poisons. When they discover that we are applying antidotes of selflessness, hard work and patience, the shock is often too much for those so used to instant gratification of their culturally manufactured "needs"! Nor do we pander to demands for adjustments to a more "politically correct" approach that would better suit the ego games of Fifth Columnists seeking to force the election of their preferred candidate in some variety of boardroom takeover fantasy.
The fast food spirituality of McDonaldized Occulture cannot digest us so it instead attacks us at every turn. The root of this is the infantile desire to kill their father and possess their mother, for the AO, as a traditional GD order, openly claims to be manifesting from the SOURCE, and thereby the Father of the GD Egregore, and to carry the maternal Isiac Mysteries.
In fact a juvenilization of the Golden Dawn is underway among post-modernist initiates, one that perfectly matches the regressive trends of the wider popular culture towards arrogant disregard for the traditions of elders, and failures to mature responsibly beyond the larval stage.
McGoldenDawn(R) GMO Bio-Science
This neoteny will drive the McGD Franchisees into a species of Genetically Modified Order, as the only response they have left in the face of their DENIAL of the validity of the Third Order!
McGD(R) FrankenFoods Borg of Directors
They think that they have published the entire GD GENOME now that McFarrell has declared himself Burger King, but they are imagining uses for this code that were never part of the original intention, and these are not natural to the system.
From their lust for Revelation via disembodied Secret Chiefs, they will breed strange hybrids and monsters to feed the power vacuum installed above the headless corpse of a system re-animated by Franken-Farrell's McGD - and some of these will inevitably turn and bite them.
It is truly no surprise to us that we are specifically NOT mentioned by name in McFarrell's Tract, even as he lists his Reconstructionist allies, teachers and McGD franchisees. This marginalization is fully intended. Traditional Golden Dawn Orders have no place in books publishing their secrets, vilifying their founders through pop-psychoanalysis, and setting forth the future plan of attack for the McGolden Dawn Franchisee.
Ronald McFarrell's "Rosy Cross" Inner Order
Those named will be high among the "peers" who will come to "review" every publication with regards to its post-modernist PURITY, and denigrate each traditional voice that dares to be heard over the cosy hubbub of self-congratulation, as it develops a New Orthodoxy.
As a traditional Golden Dawn order, we in the Alpha Omega are the fly in their ointment, and the memory of the Egrogore they think they can Genetically Modify to suit their Frankensteinian dreams. Ronald McFarrell's GMOrder Initiations may fix hunger pangs for a time, but the McGD Franchise knows that post-modern aspirants will keep demanding MORE...
Fast Food Spirituality does not satisfy for very long, and over indulgence in it can be damaging to psychic wellbeing.
The McGD Reconstructionists have attacked every traditional Golden Dawn order they could see for two decades now. Dr. Robert Word, Chief of the August Order of the Mystic Rose was forced into silence by legal harrassment. The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, our outer order was harrassed in court as well, trying to prevent us from even calling ourselves Golden Dawn.
McGD has used every dirty trick in the book including every fear mongering rumor to try to scare people away from traditional Golden Dawn orders. They have spied on us, sabotaged our temples, tried to poach our members, and everything else you can imagine.
But all of this has been to no avail because the Alpha Omega is still today the largest Golden Dawn order in the world. In the AO, we do not believe that resistance is futile. We will continue to resist the McDonaldization of the Golden Dawn and the AO will always remain a shining beacon of light for people not satisfied with post-modern fast food spirituality, but who are looking for the real deal.

ATTENTION: THE DOCUMENTS QUOTED IN THIS ARTICLE ARE 100% GENUINE. DESPITE COVER-UP EFFORTS, THIS CAN STILL BE VERIFIED IN NUMEROUS PLACES ON THE INTERNET, INCLUDING HERE, HERE, AND HERE. Olen Rush, defending the culprits, claims documents in this article are fake - taken from an Illuminati site. Rush now accuses ME of racism - merely for outing his involvement with GOLDEN DAWN LEADERS LISTED AS GRAND OFFICERS ON THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE OF THE ANTI-SEMITIC "ORDER OF THE ROSE AND CROSS," INCLUDING RUSH'S OWN PUBLISHERS!
They don't want you to know what I am about to reveal...
When The Dark Hand of SRIA, pulling strings in the Golden Dawn, was revealed in Episode 6, most people thought the Golden Dawn Saga was over. As you will see in episodes to come, we are only at the beginning, just entering the shadowy world beyond the Golden Dawn.
What makes the Golden Dawn Saga so unique? This is a TRUE story. The evidence you will find along the way may shock you, but it is truer then you would like to admit. We are entering a world so strange, so marvelous, so terrifying, I shall henceforth only leave you a trail of crumbs to find your way in the labyrinth. This thread of Ariadne, you must follow on your own, and find the Minotaur yourself.
In June 2007, scandal rocked the Golden Dawn community as a new and obscure Rosicrucian order broke onto the esoteric scene. They say this Order of the Rose and Cross was born in schism, condemning the SRIA for its lack of CHRISTIAN PURITY. The esoteric world looked on in horror, as in their manifesto of the ORC, as reported on usenet at the time the ORC opened in June, 2007, identified themselves as "CHRISTIAN IDENTITY. WE INVITE FELLOW CHRISTIANS, FREEMASONS, AND ROSICRUCIANS TO JOIN US IN RAISING CHRISTIANITY TO ITS MANIFEST DESTINY IN THE FINAL STRUGGLE TO ESTABLISH GOD'S KINGDOM ON EARTH, AND IN RESTORING THE ROSICRUCIAN TRADITION TO ITS TRUE CHRISTIAN IDENTITY." Manifesto of the Order of the Rose and Cross. [The entire manifesto follows below.]The scandal deepened when Nick Farrell openly admitted on the internet that SRIA is a racist organization. Following the SRIA-ORC schism in 2007. Nick Farrell wrote on alt.magick:"ORCs policy on admission is considerably wider than the SRIA in that it is open to all races and sexes. The ORC was originally formed by a group of people who felt that SRIA was too conservative."Here is what Wikipedia says of Christian Identity:"Christian Identity is a label applied to a wide variety of loosely affiliated believers and churches with a racialized theology. Many promote a Eurocentric interpretation of Christianity... In turn, most modern Christian denominations and organizations denounce Christian Identity as heresy and condemn the use of the Christian Bible as a basis for promoting anti-Semitism... Christian Identity followers believe that Adam and Eve are ancestors of whites alone, and that Adam and Eve were preceded by lesser, non-Caucasian races often (though not always) identified as "beasts of the field"... Racialism, or race based philosophy is the core tenet of Christian Identity, and most CI adherents are White Nationalists or support racial segregation. Some believe that Jews are genetically compelled by their Satanic or Edomite ancestry to carry on a conspiracy against the Adamic seedline and today have achieved almost complete control of the Earth through their illegitimate claim to the white race's status as God's chosen people..."
Christian Identity
Scandal rocked the Golden Dawn community when news broke that numerous leaders of Golden Dawn orders were listed as Grand Officers of the nascent "Order of the Rose and Cross." These included Nick Farrell, The Present Supreme Maga of the SRIA (America), her husband who also belongs to the segregationist SRIA and SRIC, and SRIA member and Golden Dawn author R.A. Gilbert.
Once the scandal broke, the list of officers was quickly truncated on the ORC website, deleting all offices filled by Golden Dawn leaders from the list. It is highly likely, however, that Nick Farrell and the other Golden Dawn leaders still serve Grand Officers for the anti-Semetic ORC, despite their rote denials. Below is the original list of officers captured from the ORC website on June 3, 2007, followed by the "sanitized" list, captured the following month on July 4.

The scandal was compounded by the rampant anti-Semitism in the article written by R.A. Gilbert, "Golden Dawn or Gotterdamerung," as follows below. Note that the ORC has attempted to sanitize this article from its website as well, but have been sloppy. Although the.pdf is no longer available on their server, the link to it still remains on the articles page, as follows:
Despite this obvious attempt by the Order of the Rose and Cross to remove all evidence of anti-Semitism from their website, can still be downloaded from the original version of their website from the Internet Archive HERE.
ORC Grand Archivist, R.A. Gilbert
"HOW CAN WE BEST PRESERVE THE WESTERN HERMETIC TRADITION FOR THE FUTURE? I TRULY BELIEVE THAT INITIATIC ORDERS ANALOGOUS TO THE GOLDEN DAWN ARE STILL NEEDED AND THAT THEIR ROLE IS CRUCIAL IN PRESERVING OUR SPECIFICALLY WESTERN ESOTERIC SPIRITUALITY. WE MUST ALSO RECOGNISE THAT THE TRADITION WHICH REPRESENTS THAT SPIRITUALITY FACES REAL THREATS, both from the growth of RELIGIOUS INDIFFERENCE and from the determined efforts of its SPIRITUAL ENEMIES to capitalise on such indifference, and to undermine the tradition by perverting its ethos and substituting darker and avowedly anti-Christian goals. If we are true to our Rosicrucian principles then we must recognise and strive against those THREATS." - R.A. Gilbert It is obvious, that Gilbert is here espousing an Anti-Semetic "Christans only" view of Rosicrucianism. Gilbert makes direct reference to some mysterious "ANTI-CHRISTIAN" (READ JEWISH? PAGAN? MUSLIM?) THREAT. Such paranoid declarations are highly reminiscent of other Anti-Semetic tracts like the infamous "Protocols of the Elders of Zion."
Another Anti-Semetic Tract talking about "threats" from "spiritual enemies" with "anti-Christian goals."
Finally, here is the full text of the manifesto of the Order of the Rose and Cross, as reported on usenet at the time of the official opening of the ORC in June, 2007. The fact that ORC has attempted to remove every other trace of proof of racism from its website aw well, speaks to the authenticity of this document.
WE, THE FRATRES ET SORORES OF THE TRUE ROSE AND CROSS HEREWITH PROCLAIM THE BIRTH OF A NEW ORDER, SO THAT CHRISTIANITY MAY YET FULFILL ITS MANIFEST DESTINY AND THE ROSICRUCIAN TRADITION MAY BE RESTORED TO ITS ORIGINAL CHRISTIAN PURITY: "The Order of the Rose and Cross" Our Order teaches that true Christianity is not merely a question of belief, but also one of RACIAL KARMA.AFTER THE INVASION OF THE KINGDOM OF ISRAEL, THE ASSYRIANS SCATTERED THE INDIGENOUS POPULATION. THEY RESETTLED IN THE CAUCASUS MOUNTAINS, AND LATER DRIFTED INTO EUROPE. WE BELIEVE THAT THE ANGLO-SAXON AND ASSOCIATED INDO-EUROPEAN CULTURES ARE THE SPIRITUAL AND LITERAL DESCENDANTS OF THESE "LOST TEN TRIBES OF ISRAEL," REPRESENTING GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE AS MENTIONED IN THE OLD TESTAMENT. WE BELIEVE IN THE INEVITABILITY OF THE END OF THE WORLD AND IN THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST. WE BELIEVE THAT THE COMING "END TIMES EVENTS" ARE PART OF A CLEANSING PROCESS THAT IS NEEDED BEFORE CHRIST'S KINGDOM CAN BE FIRMLY ESTABLISHED ON EARTH. DURING THIS TIME, SATAN AND HIS ALLIES WILL ATTEMPT TO DESTROY GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE USING ANY MEANS AVAILABLE. THE RESULT WILL BE A VIOLENT AND BLOODY MILLENNIAL STRUGGLE, IN WHICH CHRISTIANS SHALL BATTLE SATAN AND THE FORCES OF EVIL. MANY WILL PERISH, AND SOME WILL BE FORCED TO WEAR THE MARK OF THE BEAST MERELY TO PARTICIPATE IN BUSINESS AND COMMERCE. AFTER THE FINAL BATTLE IS ENDED, HOWEVER, CHRIST'S KINGDOM SHALL BE ESTABLISHED ON EARTH, AND CHRISTIANS BE RECOGNIZED AS THE ONE AND TRUE ISRAEL.THE PRINCIPAL AIM OF "THE ORDER OF THE ROSE AND CROSS" IS TO PRESERVE AND PROPAGATE PURE, ESOTERIC CHRISTIANITY, the true essence of the Western Mystery Tradition, by means of study, debate and meditation within a consecrated space, in order to prepare Christians for the coming struggle. WE BELIEVE, MOREOVER, THAT THE ROSICRUCIAN MOVEMENT HAS BEEN FROM ITS INCEPTION AN INHERENTLY CHRISTIAN MOVEMENT. THEREFORE ONLY CHRISTIANS MAY JOIN THE ORDER OF THE ROSE AND CROSS. WE BELIEVE, MOREOVER, THAT ROSICRUCIANS HAVE A SPECIAL ROLE TO PLAY IN THE END TIMES STRUGGLE, AND THAT CHRISTIANS SHALL GATHER AROUND THE SYMBOLS OF OUR ORDER, THE ROSE AND CROSS, IN THEIR STRUGGLE AGAINST SATAN AND HIS ALLIES. MANY MEMBERS OF OUR ORDER WERE ONCE MEMBERS OF OTHER ROSICRUCIAN ORDERS WHOSE LEADERS HAD LOST THEIR WAY. THE FOUNDERS OF THE ORDER OF THE ROSE AND CROSS HAD ALL BEEN SENIOR AND LONG-STANDING MEMBERS OF THE SOCIATAS ROSICRUCIANA IN ANGLIA (S.R.I.A.), A MASONIC ROSICRUCIAN BODY THAT PROFESSED TO BE CHRISTIAN IN NATURE AND MEMBERSHIP, BUT WHICH HAD GRADUALLY SLIPPED FROM MAINTAINING ITS CHRISTIAN IDENTITY as well as a wholly Christian membership. THE SLIPPAGE AWAY FROM SPIRITUAL INTEGRITY GAINED MOMENTUM, AND WHEN THE HEAD OF THAT BODY DRIFTED AWAY FROM CHRISTIANITY, THEY SAID 'ENOUGH IS ENOUGH' AND LEFT, BUT MORE IN SORROW THAN IN ANGER. THEY DID NOT, HOWEVER, LEAVE ROSICRUCIANISM BEHIND THEM, AND CREATING A NEW ORDER WAS A NATURAL STEP - AS WAS THE INEVITABLE REVILING AND ILL-WILL FROM SOME OF THEIR ERSTWHILE COLLEAGUES. BUT THE BREACH WAS ONLY WITH THE MISGUIDED LEADERS OF THAT ROSICRUCIAN BODY, NOT WITH ITS WIDER MEMBERSHIP, WHO ARE WELCOME AMONG US AS PILGRIMS ON THE ROSICRUCIAN PATH.WE INVITE FELLOW CHRISTIANS TO JOIN US ON THE ROSUCRUCIAN PATH OF TRUE ESOTERIC CHRISTIANITY. WE INVITE FELLOW CHRISTIANS, FREEMASONS, AND ROSICRUCIANS TO JOIN US IN RAISING CHRISTIANITY TO ITS MANIFEST DESTINY IN THE FINAL STRUGGLE to establish God's kingdom on earth, and in RESTORING THE ROSICRUCIAN TRADITION TO ITS TRUE CHRISTIAN IDENTITY."
Does the ORDER OF THE ROSE AND CROSS truly subscribe to the hate filled philosphy of Christian Identity?
How deeply has this cancer infiltrated the Golden Dawn?
Do Nick Farrell and other Reconstructionist Golden Dawn leaders still serve as Grand Officers in the "Black Dawn" ORC?
Black Dawn: ORC attack on the Alpha Omega
Is there still more here than meets the eye left to discover, despite the vacuous denials and shocking revelations thus far?
Keep coming back, and you will find the answers to these and many other questions as The Golden Dawn Saga continues, here on The Golden Dawn Blog.
