(Cont.)
And it was so, that all the elohims in the Fulness saw this, and they said amongst themselves: “Behold, Mazzaroth is returned to Chaos. No such deed has been done or seen from tomorrow till the day that the workforce quit the Empire. Let us consider of this: take counsel, and speak your minds.”
Then all the Volcano’s multitudes went out from Eldorado and elsewhere, and the caravansary was gathered together as one man, from the Brunonians to the Midianites, with the Ozians and others, unto the volcano of potential.
And they all met in the Infernal Council Chamber of Pandemonium. The population of the Volcano assembled together with the elohims. And the Demiurge came also among them.
Thus did the elohims from the Fulness, even all those employed under Enoch Metatron, including the Unknown God, present themselves in the Infernal Council Chamber, before the assembly of the people of the Volcano.
(Now the Fundamentalists in the Heaven of X heard that the multitudes of the Volcano were gone up to Pandemonium.)
Then said the elohims of the Fulness: “Tell us, how did this happen?” And they were referring to the affair of Tiamat.
And the young nameless elohim, who was standing among the people, answered and said: “I came into the pearly gates of the Heaven of X, the country that belongs to the Fundamentalists, I and my concubine, to lodge. (Her you know as Tiamat; she was with us in Eldorado; her father is John, who resides in Chaos.) Then, in Heaven, the Fundamentalists rose against me, and beset the house round about by night, and thought to have converted me: and my consort have they forced, under inquisition, and won her soul away.
“As she was suspended into the state that they misname purity, and rendered into standing water, I divvied her zelem in Tohu Bohu to reinstate Bereshith. Lo, you are all elohims of the Volcano; give here your advice and counsel. Did I err?”
Then all the elohims arose as one god, saying: “Amen, amen.” (By which, they seem to have meant: “What’s done is done; let’s make the best of this.”)
Then Mulciber Elohim said: “We will not any of us go back to his tabernacle, neither will we any of us turn into his house. But now, this shall we do to the Heaven of X; we will march up by our multitudes against it.”
And Moloch Elohim agreed, and said: “This must happen, according to what these Fundamentalists have done unto the Dragon of Chaos.”
So all the elohims of the caravansary were gathered against the Heaven of X, knit together as one god.
And the Volcano’s multitudes sent angels through all the city, saying to the Fundamentalists: “What wickedness is this that is done among you? Now therefore open the pearly gates of your zone for our forces, that they may come and lighten you up.”
But the members of the Fundamentalist cultus would not hearken to the voice of their brethren the elohims of the Fulness, for the Volcano had hardened their hearts. Thus the Fundamentalist cultists congregated out of the cities of Heaven unto the pearly gates, to go out to battle against the elohims of the Fulness.
And the Fundamentalists of Heaven were numbered at that time out of the cities twenty and six thousand men that carried firearms, beside the border patrol at the gates, which were numbered seven hundred chosen men. And all these men were righthanded; every one being a skilled and accurate marksman.
And the elohims of the Fulness were numbered four hundred thousand souls that drew sword: all these were poets.
And the elohims of the Fulness arose, and went up to the mountain of Sinai, and asked Yahweh Elohim, and said: “Please give your counsel: Which of us shall go up first to clash against the Fundamentalists of Heaven?” And Yahweh said: “Hermes Elohim shall go first.”
And the elohims of the Fulness rose up in the morning, and encamped against the pearly gates.
Then the border patrol of the Fundamentalists of Heaven came forth and aimed their weapons, and shot down to the ground of the elohims that day twenty and two thousand souls.
Yet the elohims of the Fulness encouraged themselves, and set their forces again in array in the place where they had been positioned before. (And the elohims of the Fulness went up and wept before Yahweh and Metatron until even, and asked counsel of those two great elohims, saying: “Shall we indeed go up again to clash against the heavenly Fundamentalists; for, lo, are they not our siblings?” And Yahweh said: “Go up against them.”)
It was now the second day of the Great War in the Heaven of X. And the elohims of the Fulness came near against the cultists of Fundamentalism; and those cultists went forth against them out of the pearly gates, and shot down to the ground eighteen thousand elohims, all fine swordsmen.
Then all the elohims of the Fulness, and all the multitudes of the caravan who were watching from Pandemonium, went up from the Infernal Council Chamber, and came unto the house of gods, and wept, and sat there before Yahweh and Metatron, and drank all day from the grail of Samson, and they grilled meat, and offered these things to all the LORDs, and enquired of them their opinions on the situation at hand. (For the Ark of Remembrance, with its golden image of Yahweh that King Bryan made, had been brought to Micah’s sanctuary, during this time of conflict, and Man the mechanical son of the robot Satyajit, the artificial offspring of King Bryan, stood before it, and on this occasion his replica, the Son of Man droid, stood at his side: thus, there were two matching bots and two matching idols with their corresponding gods, Yahweh and Metatron, there in the same room. It was but a coincidence devoid of deeper meaning, all this doubling and duplication, but its appearance was majestic.) The elohims said: “Shall we yet again go out to clash against the Fundamentalists of Heaven, who are our siblings, or shall we cease? For we believe that this dispute could be solved with ease diplomatically.” And Jehovah said: “Go up; for tomorrow I deliver them into your hand.”
So the elohims set liers in wait round about the Heaven of X. This was Day Three of the faceoff. Then, for the third time, the elohims of the Fulness went up against the cultists of Fundamentalism; and they put themselves in array against the pearly gates, as at other times.
And the Fundamentalists of Heaven went out against the elohims, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to shoot the elohims, and mow them down in a hail of bullets, as they had done repeatedly now. Thus they effectuated deicide, all along the golden highways, of which one goes up to the Bosom of Jesus, and the other to the pearly gates before the field of strawberries which lies at the border. They killed, on this occasion, about three thousand elohims.
And the Fundamentalists of Heaven said: “They are smitten down before us, as at the first.” But the elohims of the Fulness said: “Let us retreat, and draw them outside the city, into the rolling plains, and ultimately over by the Palm Tree of Deborah, where the acoustics are superb.”
So all the elohims of the Fulness rose up, and put themselves in array at that same palm where Gertrude Stein as Deborah met with the ahistorical George Washington. And the liers in wait among the elohims came forth out of their places, where they were stationed in the meadows outside the pearly gates.
And there were altogether about ten thousand elohims posing there, in the picturesque landscape adjoining the Heaven of X. They had no inkling of how much evil the Fundamentalists were about to pour upon them.
And those cultists charged out from the pearly gates and gunned down elohims left and right. They destroyed that day twenty and five thousand and an hundred gods, in sum: all unparallelled swordfighters.
So the elohims saw that they were drubbed: for their counterparts in the field had given place to the Fundamentalists, after they failed in their attempts to reason with them. When they began their diplomatic outreach, while they were talking, the Fundamentalists shot them.
Then a great flame with smoke rose up out of the field, where all the elohims had fallen.
And when the Fundamentalists saw this, they said: “Surely they are smitten down before us, as in the first revolution.” And the flame of the elohims ascended up into Chaos.
And the elohims who remained turned to look in the direction of the attackers, and they were amazed: for they saw that doom was come upon them. Thus the Fundamentalists enclosed the elohims round about, and corralled them, and shot them down with ease over against the pearly gates toward the sunrising.
And there fell eighteen thousand more elohims, all souls of valor.
Then the remnant turned and fled toward the wilderness, unto Lynch Peak, which is Fallout Rock. And the Fundamentalists gleaned of them as they ran five thousand elohims; and they pursued hard after them, through the sticks, and slew two thousand more.
By now the court historians had lost count of how many among the elohims of the Fulness had been blotted altogether. But the few hundred who remained turned and fled to the wilderness, as was mentioned, and took refuge at Fallout Rock, and they abode therein four months.
And the Fundamentalists of Heaven turned and sought out all the multitudes of the caravansary, and shot them from far away or near: either as snipers, at a great distance; or very close up; and they shot the pilgrims in every city where they had toured, and in all the places where they had taken root: also they set on fire all the cities that they came to.
§
Now the elohims of the Fulness had no remaining goddesses or offspring; for the Fundamentalists had exterminated all their women and children, as they also had now begun to do to the wayfarers of the Volcano’s caravan.
So the majority of the remaining elohims came to the house of gods in Paris, in the mountains, and lifted up their voices unto Yahweh and Metatron, and wept sore; and said, “O LORDs of the Fulness, why is this come to pass among the pantheon, that there should be today one full sex lacking in Eternity? And how now shall we preserve our seed?”
Also the wayfarers of the caravan, who had gathered in the Infernal Council Chamber of Pandemonium, sent angels bearing prayers unto the Volcano, saying: “What shall we do, now that this destruction is come among your people, and among the elohims?”
And Yahweh answered, at once, both the angels of the wayfarers, via vortex, as well as the elohims of the Fulness who were in the house of gods, and he said: “As for the elohims, on account of their womenfolk and little ones having all been struck down, their surviving males shall come and seek out helps meet for them from among the daughters of humankind.”
Therefore the elohims that were at the house of gods came down from the mountains of Paris to rendezvous with the wayfarers, and to engage in courtship and mass trysting with their females. For this purpose, they met in the public parks around Las Vegas and in the office buildings of Oz.
But if you were to number the seeds conceived from this affair, lo, your total would come to zero. For here is what happened:
The congregation of the Fundamentalists sent thither twelve thousand gunmen, and commanded them, saying: “Go, and utterly destroy every elohim, and every earthwoman that you catch being wooed by such.” And they thereby eliminated four hundred young Baalims and Ashtaroths.
So one last throng of eligible women from the caravansary, as a final course of action, trekked forth into the wilderness, where the only remaining elohims were hiding, in Fallout Rock. And the damsels, when they arrived, called peaceably unto the gods, and took themselves tabrets and pipes, and began to dance. And the elohims saw this, and they were lured forth from the rock, and they joined the dance, and they all played, and mixed and mingled.
Yet the Fundamentalists came again this time; for they had said, Behold, there is a feast of fornication in the wilderness planned for the morrow: Go, lie in wait, and let us cleanse the scene. And see, and, behold, if the daughters of men come out to dance in dances, then leap ye out of the bushes, and blast you every god that couples.” Then they went and secluded themselves in places on the north side of Florida, on the east side of the highway that goes up from there to Chaos, and on the south of Transylvania.
And the women of the caravan did so, and enticed out all the remaining elohims from Lynch Peak, according to their nature, and they paired with them that danced. Meanwhile, the Fundamentalists of Heaven had been lying low, concealed behind their thorny bramble bushes; and they surprised the lovers, and shot them when they conjoined. And they murdered them all.
And, after every elohim was eliminated, the Fundamentalists departed thence at that time, and they went out to Paris of the mountains, to Micah’s house of gods, and they discovered in the holiest place Yahweh and Metatron, and they shot them point-blank.
So from that time forth, there were no gods but the Lord GOD of Fundamentalism. And every man did that which was right in the eyes of THE CHURCH.
