Orgone Committee Language Subcommittee Report Summer Solstice Report 1990 E.V. Greetings from the language labs! latest news is the beginning adaptation of American Sign Language to meet the needs of a Telescreen oriented society. The earlier resolutions to eliminate the is of identity are being further developed by a united effort of the Neo-Thelemoids and Wiccoid-Panpaganites. Instead of "is" we use "as". Examples: I as chairman of the Language Subcommittee instead of I am chairman of the Language Subcommittee That guy as stupid. Replaces That guy is stupid. Or Take: Neo-Thel is the most survival enhancing philosophy. And make: Neo-Thel as the most survival enhancing philosophy. Or: The Orgone Committee is the best Initiatic body ever! Becomes: The Orgone Committee as the best Initiatic body ever. Heres: I am the master, you are the slave. Now: I as the master, you as the slave. All Jews are evil. Now: All Jews as evil. I am right! The less certain: I as right! When we say that something "is" we invest it an identity that has a solidity which is more absolute than human experience and speculation indicates. To say that someone "is" something is to unnecessarily restrict their identity to that one thing. It allows us to foist consuming roles on others and ourselves simply because of the inaccurate piece of mental territory that the word indicates and creates. It allows us to be lazy and get into the habit of investing words with a level of reality that does not get us the results we need. At this stage, we are not seriously implementing the Agenda Items concerning the creation of a hieroglyphic written language which the Committee is resolved to have created by 1994 (e.v.that is). Naturally, any and almost all suggestions by the membership are welcome, and will be added to the language labs database. Please address any correspondence Attention: Language Subcommittee.
