When We All Get To Heaven

1. Marx was right when it comes to ownership of the means of production. The people, for instance, own these blog sites, not the government, so whoever bleats about "marxism" and at the same time objects to being shut up bny the government is self-contradictory. And probably an asshole, but that goes to another issue.

2. Freud was right about childhood sexuality (unfocused as such), the effects of perversion, especially abuse; and the effect shaming little boys has on the type of male they become.

3. Agreeing that actors, in general, do not relate to reality the same way others do (Ronald Reagan, for instance, son of alcoholic Jack Reagan, who kicked him in the head with his boot -- was "always "on"" -- always acting something out), this old and honored truth ("never take a professional entertainer seriously; it takes something out of you ") was one of the inner lines broken down by the 60's baby-boomer generation. They undressed performers and looked back on the Bing Crosby-Frank Sinatra crooner mystique as clear hee haw, if taken seriously. Meanwhile, shifting the new be-bop teenage style to the mop-head Beatles, Rolling Stones and electric guitars, all of it. The old movier star/entertainer --Marlene Dietrich singing Lili Marlein! <> underwent de-mystification, along with "femininity", deconstructing into the opposites previously bonded psychologically. Kurt Cobain, Nirvana and "grunge" took one strain of that deconstruction to the limit. Ignore him if you like, "Nevermind" was one of the seminal youth group knock-out hits, and I have listened to the great things he did a lot, too. These ones showed lots of other ones "the way", the grammar of being, how a person has to fitthe pieces together to make it work, if you are going to "make it". Mel Gibson deconstructed the "Jesus trip" strain from the old 60's: you act out your version of what it is to have the Son of God incarnate in you; screw everybody else. I never judged people on their Jesus trip, if it was total. My own, as Southern Baptist, trusted human totality, and still do. But then came perversions, and I do mean those who abused 60's youth, themselves, and humanity with something called "Vietnam". Mel Gibson deconstructed what "Christ" had to be for descendeants of that generation in order for them to see a movie that stirs that form of deep religious feelings. <>> In other words, Mel Gibson became a surrogate Christ, himself, for the alter-personality of the abused baby boomer generation. Under the cover of him breathing 1.2 (no one is drunk on that, not even a 15 year old kid -- 1 beer plus) the "anti-semitixm" (judeophobia, I call it, asking it not be brought up, please, in connection with myself) everyone knows is latent in hard-nose hard-core Iron Cross Catholicism, not to put them down for it, is flushed right out into the open. Absolutely amazing, and I am trying to help Flemming appreciate how and why.

Again, I do not judge other people's Jesus trip when it is genuine, that is, a totality of their personality and not clearly perverted. However there is a point about the Catholicism in all this that should be brought up. It can so happenh that some persons will predicate their opinion, such as about "Marx" or "Freud" as facts -- political facts, one might say -- when they are not facts at all. Whether from ignorace, indifference or malevolence, they will proceed on the basis of falsehood and jive, until stopped: either by themselves, buried under the weight of sheer-self-contradiction; or by an external force which lawfully materializes against them in opposition. This was played out by the Roman Catholic Church of the old Holy Roman Empire in the 16th century, materializing opposition of the old German Houses, with their new found Protestant (Luther, Calvin). Led by the Great Swedish general Adolphus Gustavos, they defeated the power of this idea over mankind forever. It severed the secular from the sacred for all time (even though Luther himself wasn't too keen on that point). Catholicism may have its hierarchy, its name, traditions and sacrality respected, but it is not, and cannot be recognized as, recognizing the4 same God the founding fathers of America worshipped without dishonoring the dead of that first modern war of liberation in the Western world, and what they died for.

4. Which brings us back to the Jews.
Yes, I side with the content of Mel Gibson's tirade. I also side with Hizbollah's right to resist open genocide. Will other ging-ho-for-Mel or what nots take that ste4p? Not that I am "in bed with", or "secretely love" Arabs and Muslims, but because, independent of these names, they have tried to do there, namely, organize a community that could sustain and defend itself against Israel, which is an affirmative in the cro-magnon liberal's handbook. And, more in the forefront, to turn against them as "terrorist enemy of the United States who have killed more Americans since the Vietnamese" -- referring to the 241 Marines killed at the behest of Sharon via Reagan, after the "Christian" militia had been unleashed by the butcher on the old men, women and children at Sabra and Shatila, further smearing the name and reputation of American Christendom. Where was the outcry then? Where? -- besides clipping of my own saved of letters to the editor at that time. The fact is, those deaths were a sacrifice to Zion. Wm. Casey is a link to this website.

I think true conservative Catholics would agree on these principles.
