I have nothing against religion. I count some pretty devout Christians, Pagans and Thelemites among my friends. I do however hold a beef against people who use their religion like a giant self-righteous hitting stick. If you are going to use Jesus/Pan/Crowley/Cthulhu or Zoroaster as your tag team partner please keep up-to-date with their latest developments
We have a site FAQ. It isn’t there to look pretty. We try and answer as many of your questions as we can so that if you message for help, we aren’t spending our, and your, valuable time explaining who we are and what we stand for.
*I*, Gehenna, yes that’s G-E-H-E-N-N-A, really do not want to spend my work and email time explaining the 20+ years of pop culture and arcane religious references behind the name, that hold a deep enough meaning for me to use it as my online alias. It is there in a simplified form on the FAQ.
If you don’t like our vibe, then don’t read us and don’t buy from us. Simple. We debated long and had a drink or two.. hard about how we should represent ourselves on our site. Did we want to be businesslike? HELL no!
Who we are is important to us. Our testimonials often mention that we come across as people our clients can relate to. I am not willing to compromise my identity for the sake of a sale, nor will I spend hours of back-and-forthing explaining myself to people who cannot be bothered to understand their own religion.
I recently posted an unmoderated blog comment denouncing us as clowns and scammers (written by someone perturbed by my choice of name) on my personal facebook page.
Here are some responses:
SH–good response, not worth taking the time to explain the unexplainable to the ignorant and irrelevant…
SMcB–A lot of people miss the one, main positive of the meaning of Gehenna – Gehenna symbolizes the process of PURIFICATION through fire (whether that be energetic fire, violet flame, etc) People like him just google the word and pick the first few descriptions without actually taking the time to read and understand.
Me-^this. And They also miss the AD&D stuff
SMcB–Hell yeah! Or should I say Gehenna yeah LOL – You can find a few sources for this if you google Gehenna and Purification but there will always be some dork who blocks out the rest and goes straight for for the “hell and damnation” meaning.
One example is the story of TOPHET AND MOLECH IN HINNOM “During the twelve-month period in Gehenna, the soul goes through a process of purification and atonement”
LtG–He probably knows SO little about his own religion that he doesn’t realize gehenna is a REAL place outside Jerusalem and there IS NO HELL. Jews don’t acknowledge one, nor do they acknowledge any devil character.
LW–evil in who’s eyes huh? Lack of understanding ANYTHING is the biggest problem in this world. Too many morons, who know NOTHING with far too much to say on things they will never understand.

It should be noted that although this person has never bought any of services they would advise you “not to buy from these clowns or you’ll live to regret it“. Consider yourselves warned! *Leers scarily at you*
My advice to anyone curious about us would be to open your minds and leave your preconceptions at the door. Read our site. If you like us as people then it is highly likely we will be happy to work with you. If you feel that we are evil then please google for someone who will be better suited to meet your needs.
A name is just a name. After all, do you think xXxSexy-hot-babe69xXx is really a hot 21yr old?
For the record, I am female, which is pretty obvious if you read the “about us” page. Not “he” as our disgruntled reading-shy friend kept repeating.
