off thy shoes: for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground."
Let me I introduce
you to my
religion of 3ism, where we bow down and
worship the number 3 together. Just feel 3 in the
presence
of the
number 3. There is freedom in threedom. Tired of your present religion?
Tri 3ism
instead.
Here are a
few interesting facts about 3
An
octopus has 3
hearts (and 9 brains).
A
triangle is the polygon with the most amount of line and the least

There are 3 polar
constellations and 3 polar stars. I bet you thot that
the north star was the only polar star -- it's not . .
. there are 3 north stars,
each belonging to
one of the polar constellations. These stars alternate every so many
thousand years as the functioning
north star of that era.
The 3 Giza
pyramids were built
in exactly the same
pattern as
the 3 stars of Orion's Belt (in the constellation of Orion). These 3
stars are also

Captain
Cook first set foot in
Australia (New South Wale) in April 1717 at the location of Botany
Bay which is 33 degrees south of the equator. An island located in
Botany Bay is called Lion Island because of its resemblance
to
the Sphinx, is located at 33.3 degree. (Interestingly, 1717 was also
the year that the first Free Mason Lodge that was ever built which
was the Grand Lodge of London.)
The
numerical value of the
letters in the middle row of a keyboard (asdfghjkl) total 33
333
is attained by multiplying the primes 3 and 37 as follows: 3 X 3 X 37
= 333. If we break down the multiplication into pairs, 3 X 3 =
9, and interestingly 3 X 37 = 111. The total number of divisors into
333 are 1, 3, 9, 37, 111, 333 which total six divisors, with 6 being
a multiple of 3.

mystery of the work, but does not know how it is performed.
3)
The
Adept: One who has learned The Great Work and has performed it.
In
ESoteric
numerology there are only
3 prime numbers: 3, 5,
and 7, all of which are odd. (This is because in ESoteric
numerology only 9 numbers exist.) When we add 3+6+9 we get 15, which
adds to 6. When we miltiply 3X5X7 we get 15 which again reduces to 6.
When we start with 3, then subtrract 5 we get -2, then when we subtract
7 we get -9.
Three
numbers
have 3 letters: one, two, six, and when we add 1+2+6 we
get 9.
Here
are some jokes about 3:
Marriage is a 3 stage process of a man getting

will not be making their yardsticks any longer.
We already know that 7 ate 9, but few people know why. It is because 7

If

jokes, please send them to me. Thank
you.
