From the Ziggurat Press run of the Moorish Science Monitor, Vol. V, #1, Winter 1990/1991 “Special Preternatural Hygiene Issue”

Calling All Moors …

past, present, and future. The Moorish Science Monitor has awoken from its brief slumber of rejuvenation and has returned to illuminate, elucidate, execrate and excite!

Let’s Gibber, the official organ of Ziggurat – and what an organ it is! – has for the time being imbedded itself in the body of the Moorish Science Monitor to more ably serve the needs of the World Moorish Community. Like a glorious engine of effulgent joy, it calls to the faithful: open yourselves , make room in your hearts, bowels, minds and souls for the truth that passeth understanding.

The Ziggurat Lodge of the Moorish Orthodox Church proudly – though with not a little trembling of the innermost viscera – hereby takes on the mantle so nobly worn in the past by Hakim Bey (Moorish Metropolitan of Manhattan, Adept Chamber), Jacob Rabinowitz (redactor extraordinaire and Evil Step-Mullah of Miss Living Proof) and the mysterious forefathers/mothers/entities in the shadowy and legend-haunted past.
