Just curious as to others' thoughts on the topic.
I personally think that it could be considered LHP because it's a highly experimental path. It also has no dogma, just theory.
No, because it doesn't have a belief system or philosophy other than that any of those are toys. People here will debate what is the LHP all day, but I'd say you need:
1) Antinomianism (rejection of status quo)
2) Personal Anarchism (belief in self-rule)
3) If spiritual involvement with "dark" entities/beings, henosis/worship, etc., as an act of rejection of the spiritual mainstream. (The rejection part is important...)
4) If philosophical not spiritual, the focus being on the freedom from the shackles of spirituality/moral relativism, etc.
Chaos magick techniques are pretty useful to some degree even if you are a theist, but obviously they aren't involved in the other points I've mentioned above. Chaote's tend to have no real beliefs, but rather assume them temporarily for a purpose. They pretend while people who really are on the LHP are full-time.
