Aleister Crowley was a complex man. Taking a few thing he said out of context will not give a clear picture of his teachings. The children he spoke of sacrificing was sperm, he was talking about masterbation. No one knows what is last words were, he was in his room alone when he died. Crowley suffered from acute asthma brought on by years of mountain climbing (he was at the forefront of mountaineering in his time) and heroin was often prescribed by doctors for asthma at the time. Anyone that is interested in Crowley/Thelema, please do some real research their are a lot of lies spread around the "net" about both subjects.
