On Remarkable Beliefs


from frontpagemag.com: 'Marxist Feminism's Ruined Lives' - Mallory Millet - Sept. 2 (posted at Tea Party C.C. - by Natl Dir. Dee - Sept. 2)
The author's sister is Kate Millet, of 'Sexual Politics' and feminist Marxist-agenda fame.
"It was 1969. Kate invited me to join her for a gathering at the home of her friend, Lila Karp. They called the assemblage a “consciousness-raising-group,” a typical communist exercise, something practiced in Maoist China.  We gathered at a large table as the chairperson opened the meeting with a back-and-forth recitation, like a Litany, a type of prayer done in Catholic Church. But now it was Marxism, the Church of the Left, mimicking religious practice:

“Why are we here today?” she asked.
“To make revolution,” they answered.
“What kind of revolution?” she replied.
“The Cultural Revolution,” they chanted.
“And how do we make Cultural Revolution?” she demanded.
“By destroying the American family!” they answered.
“How do we destroy the family?” she came back.
“By destroying the American Patriarch,” they cried exuberantly.
“And how do we destroy the American Patriarch?” she replied.
“By taking away his power!”
“How do we do that?”
“By destroying monogamy!” they shouted.
“How can we destroy monogamy?"
Their answer left me dumbstruck, breathless, disbelieving my ears.  Was I on planet earth?  Who were these people?

Many thanks, Mallory, for your insightful and refreshingly honest article.
My take: This issue needed to be a) brought up, and b) outed, as the 'false flag' that it was, and is. We are on our way to a healthier society, for this process. Methinks.
This is how we learn lessons. Which is precisely what we are here for. Life being a school. The purpose of which is to graduate.

"There must needs be opposition in all things."  One of the more remarkable observations that Joseph Smith is reported to have made, and therefore, to have taught.  

And which, with its spot-on insightfulness - which, for whatever all reasons, really resonated with me, even as a child when first coming across it - kept me in the 'Mormon' Church for some time.  Until I read my way out of it.

Another blog, perhaps.   But just to say, that this particular 'teaching' has informed, and been an essential ingredient of, my 'education' ever since.

Some things just stick in one's mind when going through The School.  And others don't, so much.  Curious, that…
