What’s going on
guys - as always I’ll be your disembodied floating voice Jack Finch - as we forget all
about the Illuminati - because listen up guys - they’re small fry compared to what lurks
its bulbous head beneath the shadowy sects of civilization.
Hold onto your hats - because we’re doing it, as we ask the question - What If The Sarkic
Cult Was Real?
Now - it’s important to note that - the word cult was used more for dramatic effect,
shall we say.
A better phrasing would be the Sarkic Religion - or Sarkicism, but that’s by the by - and
I’m not in the business of offending anyone.
Particularly not any anomalous occultist organisations, that’s for sure.
Let’s not get bogged down with semantics because there are some absolutely mammoth
themes that we’re going to have to traverse over the next 7 or so minutes - the majority
of which serve as a lynchpin to the SCP Foundation and its mythos that makes up its entire established
universe.
Well - er - multiverse.
Before we indoctrinate ourselves with that though folks - you all know the drill by now.

The beacons are lit.
The War of the Flesh has arrived.
On with the show.
Where do we even begin with Sarkicism - a religious/philosophical system that encompasses
a variety of traditions, beliefs and spiritual practices - largely based on the teachings
of Grand Karcist Ion - the Foundation’s version of Jesus Christ, Moses and the Prophet
Muhammed all rolled into one.
It’s perhaps the broadest theme in the entirety of the SCP Foundation - established by eaons
of history, cryptic origins and practiced anomalous religion.
It’s also important to note that followers of his teachings are split into two opposing
branches - proto-Sarkicism - and Neo-Sarkicism.
Yeah, don’t get the two mixed up either, because they’ll be pretty pissed.
Either way though - both of these camps are agreed on several things when it comes to
their religion.
They both practice ritual cannibalism, human sacrifice, corporeal augmentation, thaumaturgy,
dimensional manipulation and have no problem forming blood pacts with otherworldly entities.
The best way to explain this flesh based philosophical lexicon, then - would to be at the start.
It’s creation story.
Sarkic cosmology is pretty bleak - and as far as it’s concerned - existence is on
the lowest pecking order of importance.
Life is a brute form - corruptible, discordant and devoid of any higher purpose.
The principle power in the universe is Yaldabaoth - the God Eater - The Womb of Chaos.
Remember I spoke about those two opposing branches?
Yeah, well Neo-Sarkites revere this entity, worshipping it’s base desire to consume
and destroy.
On the other hand - Proto-Sarkites often describe it as the true enemy of all people, viewing
it with fear and disgust - and regarding it as both the creator and destroyer of all life.
Now, enter Grand Karcist Ion - the saviour of Sarkicism - who somehow usurped control
of this cosmic entity, wearing the flesh of the Old God as an armor and ushered in a new
age in the ancient times of our planet.
Again, proto-Sarkites hold Ion as their ultimate saviour - they worship him with reverence
and take his teachings to remain steadfast in an ever changing world.
On the other hand, Neo-Sarkites take Ion’s life as an example of their own apotheosis.
If he can rise to the power of killing an Old God - then so can they.
Now, if I’m being honest - the proto-Sarkites are pretty chill dudes.
Yeah, they might sacrifice a few human beings now and then, and cultivate flesh like a Bonsai
tree - but they’re harmless enough.
They’re just waiting for their saviour to return and usher them into a new paradise.
The real bulk of this question resides with the Neo-Sarkites - and the possibility that
they could actually, hypothetically speaking, be active - right now - in our own society
- and we’d never even know it until it was too late.
If we could offer a real world parallel - then Neo-Sarkites would be the Illuminati on crack
times a million.
Whereas proto-Sarkites renounce any form of technology, opting to live a simpler life
based on the teachings of the flesh - Neo-Sarkites are much more cosmopolitan.
They embrace technology and modernity - often found in heavily populated cities - living
the same life as the people that they pass on the street.
They’re wall-street bankers, high flying socialites, governors and politicians.
The reason that they can operate though, is that they exist in a vacuum - each cult revolving
around an ancient family, unified by incest and familial bonds.
In theory then, could the Neo-Sarkite’s exist in today’s society?
Well - yes.
Now don’t get me wrong - let’s eschew the thought of a New World Order and not get
bogged down in that whole kerfuffle - but it is safe to say that there are some very
influential families on this planet that we know next to nothing about.
The Rothschild’s, the Rockefeller’s, the Du Pont’s - The Morgan Family - collective
groups that enjoy the wealth of secrecy.
As the SCP Foundation record states - they have knowledge of a Sarkic organisation known
as Adytum’s Wake - thought to be the oldest neo-Sarkite organisation in North America
- with evidence of their existence dating as far back as 1650.
Up until 1952 - the group was led by Cornelius P. Bodfel the Third - a millionaire industrialist
with an acute interest in the occult.
This group was often dismissed by the Foundation as being a decadent upper-class social club
- much like how the likes of Bohemian Grove, The Skull and Bones Society and Hell Fire
Club are viewed in our society - and in reality, there lies the rub.
The veil of secrecy exists right up until it’s broken.
If such a groups intentions were nefarious - we’d never have knowledge of said intentions
until it was too late.
In that case then - let’s hope they’d just want to seize control of the planet under
one unified government - rather than consume us all into a writhing mass of flesh.
Actually, now I’ve said it - I’m not sure which ones worse.
Well - unfortunately folks, that’s all we’ve got time for in today’s video - cheers for
sticking around all the way to the end.
