It sure does...it changes the meaning quite a bit....now, if I could only
remember the CORRECT version of it :-)

....how about "love is the law, love under will"

(and who is this "Will" person, anyway?)

I suspect that Ben might be a Xist agent sent here to confuse us. If this is
the case he will have to try *much* harder than that. The actual quote
(from Crowley's "The Book of the Law" is as follows:

"THE COMMENT

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
The study of this Book is forbidden. It is wise to destroy this
copy after the first reading.
Whosoever disregards this does so at his own risk and peril. These
are most dire.
Those who discuss the contents of this Book are to be shunned by
all, as centres of pestilence.
All questions of the Law are to be decided only be appeal to my
writings, each for himself.
There is no law beyond Do what thou wilt.
Love is the law, love under will."
