Bohemian Grove? According to liberals that is a Republican Private Club with odd rituals... Or at least they claimed that when Reagan was President. The libs claimed Reagan was a member and participated, part of what they tried to use against him. Has it changed into something else?
But, yeah, they are certainly engaging in some type of ritual. But, it was never a Republican thing. It was always a powerful, well connected thing.
I guess I think about it like this. Whether or not I think Luciferianism or any religion for that matter is "real". I could certainly see how these people who get hooked up into it or are born into it--find themselves at the very top of the world pecking order--and think it's very real and that the rituals are someone allowing them to attain this power, wealth, status, etc.
Strange world we live in.
