> the sort to be attracted to "magical thinking"
It's not magical thinking to, for instance, pay farmers to farm atop buried pyramids of China, or conceal the existence of hundreds of European mummies found in China, or for the Egyptians to ignore the Sphinx is much older than the Pyramids, and that Kufu's pyramid is built atop weathered neolithic structures similar to the European sites, and conveniently ignore that the Pharaohs DNA has European markers.
The victors write the narrative of the history. The practice of rewriting history and withholding information to inflate status is ancient, and very well documented. In fact, this is HOW said intelligence agencies actually operate.
At the very least the most believable explanation is that someone has given a name to the process whereby Gods are made from Men by withholding from the the true knowledge. Eg: China did not, in fact, develop in isolation. Egyptians, did not, in fact, built the Sphinx (clear evidence of it's head being recarved exist, and thus its is out of proportion).
Likewise: The Holocaust of the Jews did not happen as is painted in the media.
As >>2389 mentions, the "Enlightened" are likened as closer to gods or gods themselves. How else do you maintain such a status removed from the population except by keeping secret knowledge from the populace? Everyone can't be a "god", or you're just normal.
It is plainly evident to any who independently studies history, especially ancient history, that the true history is frequently kept from a people to make their leaders into gods.
This is plainly evident in the construction of the Abrahamic religious texts of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism (though most Jews do not believe the Torah as literal and instead focus on the Talmud -- A secret kept from Christians who are told Jews believe the old testament, just not the new [again, the pattern repeats] ).
So, IMO, while it is yet unknown the intent of this "World Maker Ritual" meme, there may be something to the concept of remaking the world through disinformation and placing ones selves as godheads as this is a documented historic practice going back thousands of years.
