Erotophobia

About Christian hypocrisy concerning sexual matters and Christian’s gynophobic belief that women are the fount of all Original Sin.

Here, God is not love, but obedience; with the resulting desire for arbitrary power over others in that absence of freewill.

Insightful look into an institutionalized culture that is dying because it hates the individual. This institution here is the wider culture in macrocosm, so that true escape is only possible mentally. The choice offered is to hate yourself or hate others; while pretending that whichever you select is a form of God’s love.

Like all do-gooders, the nuns in this convent are not out to reform their charges. They wish to provide themselves with holier than thou jobs for life by exploiting healthy sexuality for the religiose aggrandizement of the sisters who, themselves, lack a carnal outlet.

Science:



No science is immune to the infection of politics and the corruption of power.



Jacob Bronowski… (1908 - 74), British scientist, author. Encounter (London, July 1971).


Sleep of Reason:



The dream of reason produces monsters. Imagination deserted by reason creates impossible, useless thoughts. United with reason, imagination is the mother of all art and the source of all its beauty.



Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes… (1746-1828), Spanish painter. Caption to Caprichos, number 43, a series of eighty etchings completed in 1798, satirical and grotesque in form.


Humans & Aliens:



I am human and let nothing human be alien to me.



Terence… (circa 190-159 BC), Roman dramatist. Chremes, in The Self-Tormentor [Heauton Timorumenos], act 1, scene 1.


Führerprinzip:



One leader, one people, signifies one master and millions of slaves… There is no organ of conciliation or mediation interposed between the leader and the people, nothing in fact but the apparatus - in other words, the party - which is the emanation of the leader and the tool of his will to oppress. In this way the first and sole principle of this degraded form of mysticism is born, the Führerprinzip, which restores idolatry and a debased deity to the world of nihilism.
