As much as it pains me to say, you might be on to something there.

The Order, Crowley, Egyptian influence...it's all there.

I'm pretty sure this was briefly mentioned before becuse of the influence/evolution with the OTO and Golden Dawn. I didn't read that whole link, but I was under the impression that this "order" doesn't exist anymore.

So yeah first post ever- yay- avoided this for awhile but I guess I just have no life lol.

ok so my question: now that we know that bree isn’t in a religion per se, but 'the order' & we know this "order" is Egyptian in founding (with a little bit of allister and zodiac and blah blah blah) I seem to recall the video when Dan B&Ed into Lucy’s apt- one of the ppl in the forum (I cant seem to find it now) posted a Google earth map of all the locations on Lucy’s comp. I think there were 5 locations & if I remember correctly the lines made a 3-d pyramid. Literally just occurred to me now & I’m thinking this plays in nicely with the Egyptian road the creators have put us on. Thinking that maybe that will come into play a little later on in the story, especially if Bree & Dan take a ROAD TRIP!! So I hope all that made sense & was in the correct spot\forum- yeah, now I sleep.

That would probably make it perfect, though, wouldn't it? No one to piss off if they make something up or get something wrong.

I'm not saying that this is it, just that it could work for the videos from what I've read so far.

Why does it pain you to say it? I hope I haven't upset you in any way.

No offense, really (though that comment I made did sound a little pissy, sorry), but you have made some pretty big claims about actually knowing what the religion was. As I'm not even sure the creators know for sure where they are going with this, it's hard to believe that anyone else could know for sure either.

And Bree loves the stars. I had missed the connection with astrology. Thanks for posting the link; I forgot to post mine. :lol:

No, the last sentence says it exists today. Anyway, just something to throw in the hat.

Well, I thought I did know it was this for sure, but now not so certain. I guess that was a little arrogant sounding.

Even if it doesn't exist anymore in RL, the creators might be using it for the storyline.

maybe it doesn't officially exist today, but does in secret, hence being a secret society.

also, way back when, bree mentioned her extreme love of astrology when discussing her brief experience in public school. i have always felt this would come into play, and here it definitely does.
i think we are definitely onto something with this.

someone posted about the maps in lucy's apartment and the locations forming some kind of pyramid? i don't remember that, but someone should relocate that information. it sounds really important.

i'm gonna go look for it in the videos thread. :)

If this "order" Bree is in is so secretive, shouldn't it be vague on whether it exists or not to outsiders?

i just read the entire thread of the lucy's apartment video and couldn't find the pyramid thing. ralksdhfiasyt9sdhf...i'm gonna go take a break so my head doesn't explode.
