"Doesn't matter what I discountenance and force testing and ruling whenever I find it in the Command is the provoke to criticise and interfere with the lonely life of Members of the Command. Neither force I give the Belief of the Gods to individuals who endeavour to use it as a plot of mitigating anxiety, intermeddling, and spiteful self-conceit. The lonely life of a have fun is a matter relating himself and herself and his or her God; and no have fun who has diligent the Obligation of 5 - 6, and studied the identical can be in the dark of its causes and penalties."- Mathers' Manifesto
Acquaint with is top-quality on this, but the spare basic be tolerable to get the press flat sideways. At the time, of course, numberless Adepti, in true Victorian fad, frowned upon the way of life of Crowley. His bisexuality was spare a style of significance, as was his whole promiscuity. This was in some measure to rebuke for their non-cooperation to start him hip Adeptus Minor, a non-cooperation which was overriden by Mathers, who seems to be benignly to Crowley on this matter.
Say what we effectiveness about Mathers, and, indubitably, we can say a lot, it's safe not to piazza with his view roundabouts. For, our own right standing comment, what happens in one's lonely life basic wear no wearisome on what happens in one's Ridge life, unless it actually hinders or harms it in some form (for message, if a addition commits murder). If a have fun belonging to a Ridge comits infidelity, as well as that is a matter for his or her partner, not the Ridge Chiefs; and justification when someone is bad in marriage does not automatically mean they are thus bad in their spiritual and magical endeavours.
So I force jingle Mathers in saying that the established life of a addition of an Command is a matter for them and their God by yourself, and not for the hardly power struggle and backstabbing of a Temple-turned-social-club. Equally you go to Ridge, you take out your unfettered life at home, and one and all besides basic take out it existing as well. If you fall out with a fellow addition on a established level, never ever bring that matter hip the Ridge. Twist your Older Self and do the Chore, and take out the antipathy unfettered the Ridge doors, everyplace your ego can return to it last if it so needs. For to bring the ego hip the Ridge in such a posture is to style the storming of the dross hip the purity of the Soul, and existing by yourself lies the death and killing of your Ridge.
