Hierogrammates, Briah and Yesod

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Right here, giving reasons ...

I agree that the homologue interpretation is valid. I don't see any confirming reason for it outside an analysis of Tzadkiel's remarks. All there is, is pushing the explanation farther and farther away: well, there's ANOTHER universe with ANOTHER race, and THEY created YESOD, and ...

I think that the homologue interpretation is unlikely and the identity interpretation correct for the reasons I have given, and is supported according to the reasons I have given.

Imagine a ghost story that ends, "The ghost was ... MYSELF!"

Now imagine one that ends, "The ghost was ... some guy I never met! Over there ... somewhere."

Which one does Wolfe pick, over and over?

We've been discussing the matter. Where were you?
