Dear Dan, >> how compatible is Bardonism and Mormonism? Do they have similiar outlooks and practices? << It's not really a question of whether or not Mormonism, or any other religion, is more or less compatible with Hermetics. As Bardon stated, an Hermetic can practice any religion they choose. I think the question facing an Hermetic in this context is whether or not the Hermetic him or herself can satisfactorily combine their Hermetic practice with their religious belief. Where the conflict usually arises is that religion, by definition, is rooted in the acceptance of a specific dogma revealed through another person's experience; whereas Hermetic practice, is rooted in the idea of training the skills whereby the Hermetic is enabled to seek out their own "revelation" and experience.
