Welcome back all of you wild and woolly, freedom loving heretics! And a special welcome to all of you new subscribers!
For those of you who get offended by any type of writing that even remotely touches on religion or spirituality, be forewarned, if you don’t read this you will be missing an important part of the globalist agenda. They use all the tools at hand, including religion.
Over the past two years I’ve written extensively about the dark agenda of the medical industrial complex, the military industrial complex, and the people, organizations and corporations behind them.
I’ve also written a lot about how covidcon has been used to target our freedoms, including the freedom of religion. I’ve also talked about how the self proclaimed lord of science, Anthony Fauci, has overseen an offensive to try and replace traditional religion with the religion of science. We are now beginning to gain a better understanding of why these two entities must remain in balance to keep each other in check. As history has shown us, if religion gains too much power, we end up with an inquisition in which tens of thousands of innocent people are beheaded for wrong-think. Or, we end up burning innocent women as witches or burning books because some mortal proclaims them to be heretical.
On the flip side, we’re seeing right now what happens when science gains too much power and influence - we end up with countless millions of people being injured or killed by toxic jabs, pointless lockdowns, closures, masking and so on. We are also seeing books being banned and writers (like yours truly) being censored.
There can be no doubt that Church closures and lockdowns were certainly a part of the priority of this misguided ‘science’ agenda, but the pervasiveness in which religious freedom has been attacked goes much further than church closures. It includes; bribes to pastors of large churches to encourage their congregation to get jabbed, abridgment of our God given right to breath freely, to work freely, play freely, to visit loved ones and friends (especially those who are sick), to celebrate holy days and so on.
As long time readers know, I’ve written even more extensively about the ungodly injury and death toll from the covid jabs, beginning with the first report on May 20 2021, shortly after the first Covid jab injuries and deaths began to be reported to the CDC’s VAERS site. Total deaths reported then was already up to 1,039, a record amount that should have shut down the covid jab program. As we all know, it did not. The slaughter continued and is ongoing today.
To the most recent report from October 30, 2022. By this time the death count had skyrocketed to 31,653.
There were about 18 other reports in between those two.
Perhaps most importantly, I’ve also written extensively about the people and in particular the organizations that seem to be driving this unholy pseudo scientific agenda.
In other pieces I’ve posited the idea that the lockdown, injury, death and destruction outcomes of the covidcon agenda have a common theme based in the dark occult’s of archonistic arts, satanism and luciferianism.
What I’ve not yet contemplated is why so many of the people and organizations behind this dark agenda are concentrated in just a few places. What follows is a consideration of that topic.
As many of you know, I don’t use any social media. Because I got banned in mid 2020 from all Google owned platforms for talking about the lies being promulgated by the authorities about covid, if I tried to use other forms of social media, Google would likely see to it that I was banned from them as well. Thank God for Substack and you faithful readers who have been spreading the The Secular Heretic the old fashioned way, by word of mouth. It’s because of you that I’m still here. I mention all of this because a friend showed me this recent TikTok video on her cell phone, one that has apparently been getting some traction.

The guy who posted this begins by quoting Revelations 2:13.
13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
He then goes on to try and explain where Satan’s seat is, who Antipas is and what modern organizations are now aligned with Satans seat. Apparently he wasn’t overly concerned with accuracy. I also found the format and the sound track to be a bit dark and gothic. Given the topic, maybe that was intentional. Nevertheless, I was immediately intrigued by this and knew he was onto something, even if his information was wrong. What he was onto, I wasn’t sure, so I dove in to try and understand why I found this so intriguing.
And the more I looked into it, the more I realized what a rabbit warren this topic is. To take a deeper dive into all of this, let’s begin by breaking down this verse from Revelation (written by John of Patmos).
According to Eastern Orthodox Christian tradition, Antipas was a follower of Jesus who was ordained as the Bishop of Pergamum by the apostle John during the reign of the Roman Emperor Nero.
Right here we need to take a brief break and consider an aspect of this that will prove to be important as we go along. The hierarchy, vestments and the idea of a ‘pontiff’ among certain groups of early Christians stems from the ancient Babylonian form of idolatry, which, within the Catholic church has taken on a more formal, structural aspect than some other types of Christianity. It was this faction of early Christians that won the day at the two councils of Nicea, which led to the formation of the Constantine’s Catholic church. It also led to the destruction of the rather boisterous, free thinking, freedom loving followers of Jesus who are now portrayed by some as Gnostic’s.
Back to the narrative.
Tradition has it that Antipas was martyred by being burned to death in a brazen alter made in the shape of a bulls belly, a typical Greek altar of the time. As John saw it, this is what happened to those who refused to bow before Satan’s throne.
At that time Pergamum was in the eastern part of Greece, now Western Turkey.
Pergamum was one of the most important cites of its time, hosting major monuments and temples to the gods. To provide an idea of how important this city was, Pergamum was the first city to be named as Neocorate or, Temple Warden of the Imperial Cult. Its rival city Ephesus (just to the south), was later given the Neocorate designation. Pergamum was then given a second Neocorate designation as was Ephesus, but Pergamum was often considered the favored city because it was first to get both the first and second designation... and possibly a third.
Pergamum today.
The largest Greek alter ever built and the largest alter to Zeus in the Greco/Roman empire was built in Pergamum of long lasting ashlar marble. It was simply called the Alter of Zeus. Its primary function was as a sacrificial alter to Zeus. Yes, we’re talking about burnt offerings to Zeus.
Zeus was paramount among the Greco/Roman gods. Some information indicates that the bulls belly alter depicted above was located at the heart of the Alter of Zeus. As the verse above seems to indicate, the followers of Jesus referred to the Alter of Zeus as being the seat of Satan.
We also know that Pergamum was where many Christians were brought to be tried and sacrificed for heresy against the gods. Were they sacrificed at the Alter of Zeus? I don’t know. Maybe some of you readers can answer that in the comments.
If we fast forward to today and consider how some of us view the actions of Fauci, Gates and Biden and their zealous efforts to push the deadly nano weapon jabs into us (or a deadly nuclear war in Ukraine) as being satanic, that brings into focus why the early Christians would have seen Zeus and those who believed in Zeus as satanic. Furthermore, if we see the dark actions of the US deep state as being satanic, we might even be able to understand why many early Christians viewed the entire Roman Empire as satanic.
When we realize that the DoD, DARPA, the FDA, the CDC, the NIH, Fauci’s NIAID, the FBI, the CIA and all the rest of the deep state, satanic agencies are located in or near Washington DC, we can begin to understand why some think the seat of Satan now lies there.
Like the battle for the hearts and minds of the besieged Christians living in the Greco/Roman Empire, we are now living in a time of great spiritual warfare. Everywhere we look today we see good battling evil, light battling dark. But where does it all stem from? Yes, in the time of Antipas, Pergamum was home to the Alter of Zeus. But in the same way the US is now home to the DoD, DARPA and the rest of the deadly medical/military industrial complex that aided the rise of covidcon, the deadly jabs, and may soon give rise to nuclear war in Ukraine, it’s also home to a vast community of freedom loving souls - once again, many of them Christian - who are fighting tooth and nail against all of this darkness. The point being, it seems safe to assume the same can be said of Pergamum in the time of Antipas, that it wasn’t all sacrifices, idolatry and other malevolent activities. There were good folks living there who saw through the veil of darkness and were fighting against it. Antipas might have been one of them, or he might have been brought there along with many other Christians to be tried and sacrificed for heresy against the gods.
Of course the hopeful take-home for us today is that Christianity won, Zeus and the other gods fell and the Roman empire collapsed.
History ground on and the Ottomans took over what was left of Pergamum. The Alter of Zeus was purchased from the Ottomans by the German archaeologist Carl Humann for 20,000 Francs on behalf of the Berlin museum. It was dismantled, crated-up and shipped to Berlin Germany. It first opened as a museum there in 1902. It then closed for a time, was remodeled and reopened in 1930, just in time for Hitlers rise to power. Indeed, Hitler expressed a fascination with the alter and had his chief Nazi architect, Albert Speer, design the Zeppellin tribune (his grandstand) based on the format of the Alter of Zeus.
One other tidbit about Hitler: His Final Solution, aka the great “Holocaust”, is a word derived from Greek that means “a wholly burnt animal sacrifice”. How many millions of Gypsies, Poles and Jews were burned in the ovens by Hitlers regime?
The first 9 minutes of the above video corresponds to the research I’ve presented so far. I’ll let you make up your own mind about the rest of the video.
Considering that the Alter of Zeus now resides in Berlin, and given Hitler’s terrible reign, and knowing that the current Prime minister of Germany, Angela Merkel is a graduate of Klaus Schwab’s WEF Young Global Leaders program, and looking at Merkel’s current moves to impose the WEF’s nazi-esque Great Reset agenda in Germany and across the EU, it’s easy to see how some could think of Berlin as being Satan’s new throne.
the seat?
But wait, what about a physical seat or throne? Is the Alter of Zeus the same as the seat or throne of Satan, as some proclaim? This is where things get murky.
For most of history the seat of power - whoever and wherever that might be - has often been referred to as a place, as in the seat of power in the US is Washington DC or the White House. But the TikTok video shows an actual seat, a black throne in the background, but… he never claims it was the actual seat of Satan. I’m not sure where this comes from, but he claims - without proof - that it now resides in Geneva Switzerland in some kind of Appolyon temple in the vicinity of Geneva Switzerland.
Some hold that Satan’s seat originated in the idolatrous Babylonian empire. From there it was moved to Tyre around 600 BC. Tyre was in what is now modern day Lebanon, on the coast just south of Beirut. After King Nebuchadnezzar’s rout of the coastal city, Tyre and Satan’s seat was apparently moved to an island just off the coast. Later, Alexander built a causeway to the island and sacked it.
Moving right along, historically speaking, Attalus the first helped the Romans move the Phrygian “mother of gods” to Rome around 205 BC. Some believe this is why the Vatican began to later teach that Mary was the mother of God.
Satan’s seat was then believed to have also been moved to Rome. In Revelations 17 John describes a city that is “drunken with the blood of saints and with the martyrs of Jesus” a city with “seven hills” and “that great city that reigneth over the kings of the earth”.
That could only have been Rome.
Here is a modern glimpse into the dark side of the Vatican in Rome. (The sound track repeats several times but the video does not.)
Is Rome the seat of Satan?
What about Geneva, the city claimed in the TikTok video to be the seat of Satan? The only references I found to this accusation all point back to the TikTok video. I can find no authentic, original reference to Satan’s seat or throne being located in Geneva anywhere online. If anyone knows anymore about this, please let us know in the comments.
The claim in the video that there was a Temple of Apollyon in the vicinity of Geneva is just plain false. There certainly is a Temple of Apollo at Delphi, but that was in Greece.
Regardless of all of that, Geneva is home to a long list of organizations, many of dubious renown, some of which I’ve talked about here in the past. Let’s briefly touch on a few mentioned in the TikTok video.
The WHO is a branch of the UN. The video claims the UN is headquartered in Geneva. It’s not. UN headquarters are in New York city (I’ve been there). However, the WHO is headquartered in Geneva. I’ve written about how the WHO has been given authority to declare pandemics and favored vaccines. Signatory countries are contractually bound to follow WHO vaccine guidelines.
The WEF is in Cologny, canton of Geneva. If you want to know more about the WEF, read this.
I think the reason so many dark agencies are located in Geneva has little to do with any perceived ‘seat of Satan’ being there and everything to do with the tax benefits and the protected banking system for which Switzerland is famous. Globalists love to hide in dark places.
Here’s what I think. Whether we want to call it the seat of Satan or the throne of Satan, ultimately it really doesn’t matter if and where it might reside in any physical sense. I see all of these historical stories as allegory, telling the tales of the propensity for evil and power to coincide alongside each other.
As I hope these examples have made clear, evil resides in the mind of those who conjure it, which means it can manifest anywhere, anyplace, at any time. It doesn’t need a seat or a throne to exist and exert its influence.
Could it be the Jesus understood this? Is this why he despised hierarchical, institutionalized religion and its propensity to concentrate power? Is this why he often taught outside under Gods great sky? Is this why he said in Mathew 18:20, “Where ever two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them”?
All of this also highlights why centralization is bad - be they corporations, governments or religions - and why anything that moves us towards local level decentralization is good.
All of this means that we must be constantly on guard. There is no end to the battle against the dark globalists. Yes we will eventually prevail against those dark forces that are trying to stick their voodoo needles into children around the world. And yes, those evil perpetrators now pushing that agenda will either face retribution at the hands of man or at the hands of God. But our role to remain diligent against darkness never ceases.
Proverbs 12:24 - The hand of the diligent shall bear rule: but the slothful shall be under tribute.
I think the illuminati have a set of main "unholy" spaces they inhabit an' bring in their own incarnations of "Satan" ( yer deep dive into the concept is facinatin'!) and keep some form of "throne" 'er "fancy chair" on-site...
I recall Arizona Wilder's interviews with David Icke and her describin' the Queen Mother on some sort of twisted elaborate ornamental throne awaitin' her blood feast--it was purdy horrific (clearly this wasn't the "coronation throne!"
Fiona Barnett (who was ritually abused in Australia) if I recall correctly offered an accounting of regular churches bein' "converted" at night (only) into SRA (satanic ritual abuse) spaces fer dark ceremonies and some throne was brought up... like they keep another set of furniture stored in the basement (er crypt!) ... almost like film sets...
Masonic Temples (which happen to be bee-u-teeful even if some of the upper degrees 'r up to no good...) ALWAYS have a throne... golden 'er painted with symbols...
Then again', in many faiths God sits on a throne too... I'm sort of fascinated with the holy /unholy chair thing.... WHY? Why the chair an' not the table (there's lots more room on a table for symbolic stuff...)...
Standing is more powerful than sittin'--more imposin'--and yet all cultures seem to "hold to" the seated ruler in power thing... We find it in "county seat" or the "seat of Justice" or other such expressions... so it's part of linguistic lore too... Also we have the "Chair" (as in Chairman of the board...)--an important position...
So the physical thing've a seat IS one of deep meaning... While fer most've us a chair is jus' a place to park yer keester, in most hierarchical so-sigh-ities whar power "is" King, there are thrones by some name 'er other.
One more thing...that bull imagery (vessel fer human fiery sacrifice) is still big with the illuminati--there was the giant bull on fire in that 2012 British Olympics which was like a purely satanic speactacle (videos 'r still online--it's jaw-droppin'ly creepy)... The fiery bull was also in many dark music videos that have other devilish imagery... It's a "thing"--I thought it was just about destruction but didn't realize it was literally where they put the bodies--eeeek! Why is a "decree" a bull? (as in papal bull)...
Never knew there were thrones, let alone Satanic ones!, in the rabbit warren (and it ain't the little bunnies usin' 'em either!) Interestin' too that this crosses cultures...
Man has been at war with God from the moment evil, in the form of the serpent in the perfect garden, seduced man. Since then, man has been on a mission to make himself a god. A futile mission. Shelley wrote of the pharaoh Ramesses II, a once great and famed ruler: “My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings. Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair. Nothing beside remains. Round the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare, the lone and level sands stretch far away.”
