Das Kapital.
(Capital)

by
Dean Gotcher

"For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world." 1 John 2:16

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" Romans 3:23

Karl Marx wrote "Das Kapital" in order to negate capitalism (capitulation, i.e., having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline your "self" in order to do the father's/Father's will, i.e., doing right and not wrong according to the father's/Father's established commands, rules, facts, and truth) once and for all, i.e., to "scientifically" prove that the father's/Father's authority was anti-humanist (anti-socialist) in nature. Marx's 'reasoning' was: until capital is used to augment pleasure ("lust"), i.e., used to augment "human nature," i.e., used to augment the child's carnal nature, 'justifying' the child's natural "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' (dopamine emancipation), which the world stimulates—including the pleasure which comes with being affirmed by others—(unrestraint by established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., unrestrained by the father's/Father's authority) "the people" (Karl Marx himself) can not do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., can not be "human" without having a guilty conscience, i.e., "the people" (Karl Marx himself) can not do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., can not be "human" with impunity. For Karl Marx "lust" is not "lust," it is only "human nature." It only becomes "lust" when the father's/Father's authority "represses" "human nature." For Karl Marx, in order for man to be "human," i.e., in order for a child to be his "self" without "feeling" guilty for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning against the father/Father the father's/Father's authority must be negated, i.e., his/His established commands, rules, facts, and truth that gets in the way of ("represses") "lust," i.e., "human nature" must be negated, i.e., the father's/Father's control of the children, i.e., control of "the people," i.e., control of "human nature," i.e., control of capital must be negated.

"From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God." James 4:1-4

Capital itself is pleasure. Pleasure becomes "lust" when it becomes subject to the father's/Father's authority. For Marx, since capital is tied to "lust," I.e., the persons desire for the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which the world stimulates, it must supersede the father's/Father's authority, preventing it from being stored up for future use in order to control the children/man. When stored up in an object it becomes external to the person, taking on value and worth in itself, offering pleasure only to the person who is in control of it, whose commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., authority forces others to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline their "self" in order to gain access to it (capital), i.e., in order to gain access to pleasure themselves. For Karl Marx any command, rule, fact, or truth that gets in the way of "lust," i.e., pleasure, i.e., "feelings," i.e., "your feelings," i.e., "human nature," i.e., "self," i.e., "the children" (the proletariat), i.e., "the group," i.e., "the people," i.e., "the state," i.e., "the socialist (Karl Marx)—socialism—is irrational (unreasonable), making it irrelevant in the thoughts and actions ("theory and practice") of "the children," i.e., "the group," i.e., "the people," i.e. "the state," i.e., "the socialist" (Karl Marx). Anyone, therefore, continuing to initiate and sustain the father's/Father's authority, i.e., insisting upon others humbling, denying, dying to, controlling, disciplining (capitulating) their "self" in order to obey established commands, rules, facts, truth, i.e., in order (as in "old world order") to do the father's/Father's will, i.e., in order to have access to capital (pleasure) is the enemy of pleasure ("lust"), i.e., is the enemy of "human nature," i.e., is the enemy of "the children," i.e., is the enemy of "the group," i.e., is the enemy of "the people," i.e. is the enemy of "the state," i.e., is the enemy of "the socialist" (is the enemy of Karl Marx), and must be converted, silence, or removed for the "good" of "the children," ... i.e., for the "good" of "the socialist" (for the "good" of Karl Marx). According to Karl Marx, only in a socialist ("of and for self"), i.e., dialoguing opinions to a consensus environment—questioning, challenging, defying, disregarding, attacking the father's/Father's authority, i.e., questioning, challenging, defying, disregarding, attacking capitalism (capitulation)—can the real you (the Karl Marx in you) be 'discovered' and 'liberated.' 'Driven' by your natural "lust" for pleasure ("human nature") and 'purposed' in the augmentation of it, not only for your "self" but for all of "humanity" the father's/Father's authority, i.e., having to obey established commands, rules, facts, and truth in order to gain access to pleasure, i.e., capitalism (capitulation), according to Karl Marx, must be negated.

"Any school which does not foster students' capacity for critical inquiry [preventing the children from questioning, challenging, defying, disregarding, attacking the father's/Father's authority, i.e., from questioning, challenging, defying, disregarding, attacking capitalism] is guilty of violent oppression." (Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed)

For Karl Marx capital (pleasure) must not be external to "lust," i.e., "your feelings," i.e., external to "human nature," i.e., external to "self," i.e., external to "the children" (the proletariat), i.e., external to "the group," i.e., external to "the people," i.e., external to "the state," i.e., external to "the socialist" (Karl Marx), "repressing" them (him), it must be "of and for your feelings," i.e., "of and for human nature," i.e., "of and for self," i.e., "of and for the children" (the proletariat), i.e., "of and for the group," i.e., "of and for the people," i.e., "of and for the state," i.e., "of and for the socialist" (of and for Karl Marx) instead. In doing so, i.e., 'justifying' "lust," i.e., "your feelings," i.e., "human nature," i.e., "self," i.e., "the children" (the proletariat), i.e., "the group," i.e., "the people," i.e., "the state," i.e., the "socialist" (Karl Marx) over (and therefore against) the father's/Father's authority (capitalism), Karl Marx made the father's/Father's authority (capitalism, i.e., capitulation) the enemy of "lust," i.e., the enemy of "your feelings," i.e., ..., i.e., the enemy of "the socialist" (the enemy of Karl Marx).

"No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon." Matthew 6:24

When you make "lust," i.e., "your feelings," i.e., ..., i.e., "the socialist" (the Karl Marx) in you the basis for determining right from wrong, when someone hurts "your feelings," i.e., get in the way of your "lust," they hurt "the socialist" (the Karl Marx) in you. Therefore when someone hurts "the socialist" (the Karl Marx) in you, "your feelings" must be "hurt" or else you are not a Marxist, i.e., you are in denial, i.e., you are an enemy of "the state," i.e., you are an enemy of "the people," i.e., you are an enemy of "the group," i.e., ..., i.e., you are an enemy of "your feelings,' i.e., you are an enemy of "lust" and need to be converted, silence, or removed for your own "good," i.e., for "the children's," i.e., for "the group's," i.e., for "the people's," i.e., for "the state's," i.e., for "the socialist's" (for Karl Marx's) "good." All people (your spouse, your children, you neighbors, your boss, your legislators, your minister, you) are therefore guilty of capitalism (forcing others to capitulate to them/you, satisfying their/your pleasure in order to gain access to pleasure themselves) until prove innocent (interestingly the socialist does the same thing, controlling people through capital in order to please themselves, only doing so in the name of "the people," to 'justify' themselves, 'justifying' your doing the same thing when you become like them, controlling people through capital for your own pleasure, doing so in the name of "the people," 'justifying' them). Innocents, according to this 'logic,' lies in "lust," i.e., in the child, i.e., in you, i.e., in your carnal nature 'liberated' from (purged of or void of) the father's/Father's authority. Therefore, according to dialectic 'reasoning,' until you are 'liberated' from (purged of or void of) the father's/Father's authority, you can not be innocent, i.e., mentally healthy. Placed in an environment of "lust" you have to choose between either being "normal," i.e., being of and for "human nature" or being "abnormal," i.e., capitulating to the father's/Father's authority, forcing others to do the same. If you resist or speak out against (condemn or judge) "lust," i.e., "human nature" you must be converted, silenced, or removed for the "good" of "humanity," i.e., for the "good" of "the group," i.e., for the "good" of Karl Marx. When starting with your "feelings," making dialogue the foundation of communication, "lust" becomes the 'drive' and the 'purpose' of life.

"It is not in man that walketh to direct his steps." Jeremiah 10:23

"And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever." 1 John 2:16

There is a price to pay in socialism. In socialism, when you remove restraint, i.e., when you remove the father's/Father's authority from your "self"—so you can be your "self," i.e., so you can do what you want, when you want—you remove restraint, i.e., you remove the father's/Father's authority from others, who, wanting to be their "self," i.e., wanting to do what they want, when they want, can do what they want, when they want, having no guilty conscience in getting rid of you—in the name of "the people"—when you get in their way, i.e., when you get in the way of "the people." Such is the nature of "lust" i.e., your "feelings," "human nature," "self," "the child" (the proletariat), "the group," "the people," "the state," "the socialist" (Karl Marx) when you (he) can have your (his) way. When you "direct your own steps" what seems to be "right" or "good" to you in the beginning ends up being a nightmare and death in the end. Somebody has to direct them for you. Karl Marx ("lust") is ready and willing. When those in power make "lust," i.e., their "feelings," i.e., "human nature" the foundation for determining "right from wrong," when you get in their way, i.e., in "the groups" way they are 'justified' (in their mind) in silencing or removing you. It is the price you will pay for making "lust," i.e., your "feelings" the foundation for determining right from wrong.

"The more of himself man attributes to God, the less he has left in himself [the less he has left for Karl Marx]." (Karl Marx, Selected Reading in Sociology and Social Philosophy)

"The only practically possible emancipation is the unique theory which holds that man [Karl Marx] is the supreme being for man." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right') As contemporary Marxist's say: "Don't' study Marx. Be Marx."

"Only within a social context ['discovering' what he has in common with others] individual man is able to realize his own potential as a rational being." Joseph O'Malley in Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right'

Capital, according to Karl Marx is found in the child's carnal thoughts (opinion), i.e., in your "feelings," i.e., in your "self interest" which includes your social actions, i.e., your desiring "relationship" with (affirmation from) others and their desiring relationship with (affirmation from) you (based upon your and their common carnal "self interest"—"theory and practice"), not in someone external to you, requiring you to humble, deny, die to your "self" in order to obey them. Despite all his financial "calculations" all Karl Marx had in mind was the praxis of 'liberating' you, i.e., "human nature," i.e., "self" (himself) from the father's/Father's authority, i.e., negating the father's/Father's authority (capitalism, i.e., having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline "self" in order to do the father's/Father's will) by 'changing' the structure of society (the use of capital) so you, i.e., the child's carnal nature could rule over and therefore against the father's/Father's authority, i.e., over and therefore against any (all) who believe in and follow after the father/Father..

"It is not men's consciousness [their awareness of and submission to the world around them, with someone in control "directing their steps"] that determines their existence, but on the contrary, their social existence [their desire for relationship with the world and those who are of and for it (affirmation), i.e., "the group"] that determines their consciousness." "Praxis [social action; i.e., "lust" and desire to relate with (be affirmed by) others with the same "lust"] becomes the form of action appropriate to the isolated individual, it becomes his ethics." "Marx urged us to understand 'the sensuous world,' the object, reality, as human sensuous activity ["lust," i.e., the child's carnal nature, i.e., the child being his "self," 'liberated' from the father's/Father's authority, finding common ground (affirmation) with other children with the same "lust"]." (György Lukács, History & Class Consciousness: What is Orthodox Marxism?) By making your carnal "feelings," which are subjective, objective, Karl Marx made anyone who requires you to set your carnal "feelings" aside (in order to do right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, truth) in order to gain access to capital, the enemy.

"It is usually easier to change individuals formed into a group than to change any one of them separately." "The individual accepts the new system of values and beliefs by accepting belongingness to the group." (Kurt Lewin in Kenneth Bennie, Human Relations in Curriculum Change)

"[Kurt] Lewin emphasized that the child takes on the characteristic behavior of the group in which he is placed. . . . he reflects the behavior patterns which are set by the adult leader of the group." (Wilbur Brookover, A Sociology of Education)

"One of the most fascinating aspects of group therapy is that everyone is born again, born together in the group." (Irvin D. Yalom, Theory and Practice and Group Psychotherapy)

In this 'logic' capital is not external to you (to the child) but must be "of and for self," i.e., must be of and for you (must be of and for the child). Capital is your "self," i.e., your opinion, i.e., the child in you "lusting" (coveting) after the things of the world. You, i.e., your "feelings" are capital, making you "human resource" to be bought and sold (seduced, deceived, and manipulated) according to the "felt needs" (carnal desires) of those in power. As Carl Rogers would more clearly state it, your opinion (which is subject to your "feelings" and the current situation which affects them) makes you subject to whoever is in control of the environment.

"We know how to change the opinions of an individual in a selected direction, without his ever becoming aware of the stimuli which changed his opinion." "We know how to influence the ... behavior of individuals by setting up conditions which provide satisfaction for needs of which they are unconscious, but which we have been able to determine." "If we have the power or authority to establish the necessary conditions, the predicted behaviors [our potential ability to influence or control the behavior of groups] will follow." "We can choose to use our growing knowledge to enslave people in ways never dreamed of before, depersonalizing them, controlling them by means so carefully selected that they will perhaps never be aware of their loss of personhood."
"'Now that we know how positive reinforcement [affirmation] works, and why negative [the father's/Father's authority] doesn't'... 'we can be more deliberate and hence more successful in our cultural design. We can achieve a sort of control under which the controlled [the manipulated] though they are following a code much more scrupulously [more regulations (sight based management)] than was ever the case under the old system, nevertheless feel free. They are doing what they want to do, not what they are forced to do. That's the source of the tremendous power of positive reinforcement—there's no restrain and no revolt. By a careful design, we control not the final behavior, but the inclination to behavior—the motives, the desires, the wishes. The curious thing is that in that case the question of freedom never arises." (Carl Rogers, on becoming a person: A Therapist View of Psychotherapy)

"The words 'seem to' are significant; it is the perception which functions in guiding behavior." (ibid.)

"There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." Proverbs 16:25

By making your heart (the child's heart), i.e., "human nature" "good" and the father's/Father's authority (capitalism) "evil" Karl Marx made society subject to you (the child) and therefore you (the child) subject to society, requiring the 'liberation' of your "self" (the child) and the 'liberation' of society from the father's/Fathers' authority (capitalism), making capital subject to your (the child's) "lust" for the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' (dopamine emancipation) which the world stimulates and your (the child's) hate of restraint, making capital subject to "Nature," i.e., subject to your urges and impulses ("lusts") of the 'moment' only. (Matthew 18:2-4)

"And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God." Luke 16:15

"And through covetousness [your "self interest"] shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you:" 2 Peter 2:3

When you make your "self," i.e., you "feelings" of the 'moment' (the child's carnal nature), i.e., your "self interest," instead of the father's/Father's authority ( doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth) the basis of communication, "social capital," i.e., your social worth (socialism) negates capitalism, i.e., your individual worth (individualism, unalienable rights, sovereignty, etc.). Making society subject to your "feelings" (the child) and your "feelings" (the child) subject to society engenders socialism, i.e., the "building of relationship based upon common self interest" (common-ism). "Building relationship upon common self interest" negates the father's/Father's authority, i.e., negates doing right and not wrong according to the father's/Father's established commands, rules, facts, and truth ("rule of law"), i.e., negates having a guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning against the father/Father, i.e., negates capitalism (capitulation) in the thoughts and actions of "the people"—making you subject to your carnal "lusts" of the 'moment' and anyone stimulating ('justifying,' i.e., affirming) them—seducing, deceiving, and manipulating you, i.e., making "merchandise of you."

"The heart is deceitful above all things [thinking pleasure is the standard for "good" instead of doing right and not wrong according the Father's commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., having to set aside pleasure, i.e., having to humble, deny, die to "self" in order to do God the Father's will], and desperately wicked [hating God the Father and His authority which "gets in the way," i.e. which prevents, i.e., inhibits or blocks it from enjoying the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which the world stimulates]: who can know it?" Jeremiah 17:9 Those of dialectic 'reasoning,' as children of disobedience, 'justifying' their "self," can not see their hatred toward God the Father as being evil because their love of "self," i.e., their love of pleasure—which the world stimulates—is "in the way," blinding them to the truth, i.e., to the deceitfulness and wickedness of their heart.

Refusing to recognize the deceitfulness and wickedness of his heart all Karl Marx could come up with was the father's/Father's authority getting in the way of his carnal nature, i.e., his "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which the world stimulates, including the pleasure which comes with the praises of men, i.e., "the pride of life." The issue is not capital, i.e., money. It is the love of it—with it controlling the thoughts and actions of men ("theory and practice"), whose hearts are void of Godly compassion and restraint.

"Laws must not fetter human life ["human nature"]; but yield to it; they must change as the needs and capacities ["lusts"] of the people change [as Karl Marx's and those who think like him perceive them in the current situation—subject to their carnal needs ("lusts") of the 'moment,' sustaining their control of, i.e., power over "the people"]." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right') If A, for example, initiates and sustains capitalism (requiring capitulation of "feelings" in order to obey, i.e., in order to get the job done right and not wrong), i.e., if A gets in the way of socialism ("feelings," i.e., "lust" for the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which includes the pleasure which comes with affirmation, i.e., "self" 'justification' before others), then anyone demanding A in the current situation is out of touch with the "needs and capacities of the people," needing to be converted, silenced, or removed for the "good" of "the people," i.e., for the "good" of Karl Marx. In this way laws do not judge you (hold you accountable) for doing something wrong, they judge you (hold you accountable) for not doing "good" for "the people," i.e., for not doing "good" for socialism, i.e., for not doing "good" for the socialist, i.e., for not doing "good" for Karl Marx, i.e., for not making them (him) "feel" "good," i.e., like God, doing what they want, when they want.

"To enjoy the present reconciles us to the actual." (ibid.) In other words, pleasure ("lust") is the standard for "good," missing out on pleasure (having to humble, deny, die to, discipline, control your "self") in order to do the job right, i.e., in order to do the father's/Father's will is the standard for "bad" or "evil"—"Make me 'feel' good and you are rational, i.e., good, i.e., you are of value or worth." "Hurt my 'feelings' and you are irrational, i.e., evil, i.e., your are of no value or worth."

"The philosophers [those who are dissatisfied with how the world "is," subject to authority (as a child is subject to the father's authority, as man is to God's authority), thinking about how it "ought" to be, satisfying their carnal nature, i.e., satisfying their desire for ("lusting" after) the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which the world stimulates] have only interpreted the world in different ways [have established, through preaching and teaching their "opinion" as the only right way, thus by establishing laws, i.e., commands, rules, facts, and truth to be accepted and obeyed as given, they are inhibiting or blocking others from enjoying the carnal pleasures ("lusts") of the 'moment' which they desire], the objective however, is change [doing the dialectic (dialogue) process—there is no father's/Father's authority ("obedience to laws") in dialogue, only the persons carnal desires ("lusts") of the 'moment,' which "seem" to be "good" in the persons eyes, i.e., in the persons 'reasoning']." (Karl Marx, Feuerbach Thesis #11)

"For the dialectical method the central problem is to change reality.… reality with its 'obedience to laws'." (György Lukács, History & Class Consciousness: What is Orthodox Marxism?)

Karl Marx based his ideology upon Immanuel Kant's "lawfulness without law," where the law of the flesh (which is stimulated by the world) rules without the law of God, i.e., the Father's authority (which is not of the flesh, i.e., which is not subject to the world), i.e., where the child's carnal nature rules without the father's/Father's restraints. (Immanuel Kant, Critique of Judgment) If there is no longer a father's/Father's authority (and the guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning which it engenders) in the world, i.e., if the father's/Father's authority is negated then "lust" is no longer "lust" but only "human nature," i.e., "normal," making the father's/Father's authority, which gets in the way of the child's/man's natural "lust" for the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which the world stimulates, i.e., "human nature" "evil." The only 'rational' ("actual") means to Kant's world of "lawfulness without law" is the negation of the father's/Father's authority—so that all children/men can be "normal," i.e., "of and for self" and the world only. Kant's world of "lawfulness without law" requires therefore a violent solution (against the father/Father, i.e., against the father's/Father's authority)—not only physically (a removal of the children from the father—negation of the father, i.e., the father must die) but emotionally (a removal of the father from the children—negation of the father's authority in the children's thoughts and actions, i.e., the child's soul must die) as well. The soul knows there is a God, knowing right from wrong, doing the father's/Father's will (discussion, filling "the empty space" with facts and truth which are not changeable), the flesh knows the world, doing your own will, subject to your love of pleasure and hate of restraint instead (dialogue, filling "the empty space" with your "feelings," i.e., your carnal desires of the ''moment' which are 'changeable' according to the current situation). Kant's "lawfulness without law" means: "Preventing someone who KNOWS from filling the empty space." (Wilfred Bion, A Memoir of the Future)

"Not feeling at home in the sinful world [in a world where the Word of God is preached and taught in the home and in the community, making man "feel bad" for his sins, i.e., guilty for being "human"], Critical Criticism [questioning, challenging, defying, disregarding, attacking the father's/Father's authority, i.e. replacing the father's/Father's commands, rules, facts, and truth with dialectic 'reasoning,' i.e. dialogue, i.e., "self" 'justification,' i.e., using "higher order thinking skills" (which are used on material things) as the means to establishing "valid" morals and ethics] must set up a sinful world in its own home ['rationally' making sensuousness , i.e. the child's carnal nature, i.e., love of pleasure and hate of restraint the "drive" of life and its augmentation the "purpose," fulfilling Kant's "purposiveness without purpose"—the purpose of life is to enjoy the carnal pleasures ("lusts") of the 'moment,' which requires negating the father's/Father's authority in order to enjoy them in "peace"]." "Critical Criticism [children questioning parental authority, i.e. 'justifying' their "self," i.e., their carnal desires of the 'moment,' dialoguing with their "self" their "self interest" i.e., their carnal desires of the 'moment' (dopamine emancipation) which the world stimulates and their hatred toward restraint, i.e., toward the restrainer] is a spiritualistic lord, pure spontaneity, actus purus, intolerant of any influence from without." (Karl Marx, The Holy Family)

"The child, contrary to appearance, is the absolute, the rationality of the relationship; he is what is enduring and everlasting, the totality which produces itself once again as such [once he is 'liberated' from the father'/Father's authority to become as he was before the father's/Father's first command, rule, fact, or truth came into his life (separating him from his "self" and the world), of (and now for) "self" and the world only]." (Georg Hegel, System of Ethical Life) If you start with, i.e., communicate through dialogue, you start with, i.e., communicate through the child's carnal nature. If you start with, i.e., communicate through preaching, teaching, and discussing, you start with, i.e., communicate through the father's/Father's authority system. Starting with the child, i.e., dialogue automatically negates the father's/Father's authority. This is why 'liberal's,' socialists, etc., always move communication away from discussion (facts) toward dialogue (opinions, i.e., "feelings") in order to control the outcome, i.e., 'justify' themselves (like children do when they want their way).

It was therefore, according to Karl Marx, the child's carnal nature, i.e., the child's "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which the world stimulates (which is common with all children), not the father's/Father's authority (which divides children between one another according to their father's "right-wrong," "good-evil," "saved-lost," "above-below," etc.,) that must become the basis of life, i.e., society. Following after Georg Hegel's logic, the child is the ground of being, therefore "human nature," i.e., the child's nature, i.e., the child's carnal desires of the 'moment' which the world stimulates must supersede any command, rule, fact, or truth that gets in his/its way. Kant's, Hegel's, Marx's, and (as you will see) Sigmund Freud's 'logic' was all about negating the father's/Father's authority.

"On account of the absolute and natural oneness of the husband, the wife, and the child, ... the surplus is not the property of one of them ... all contracts regarding property or service and the like fall away ... the surplus, labour, and property are absolutely common to all, inherently and explicitly." (George Hegel, System of Ethical Life)

"The fruits of the earth belong to us all, and the earth itself to nobody." (Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Discourse on Inequality)

Georg Hegel, sounding more like Karl Marx than Karl Marx himself (who was not yet born), is saying, when you make the child's carnal nature, i.e., "human nature" (man's sinful nature, which is common to all mankind) the foundation of life, then your spouse is not yours but the community's, i.e., the socialist's, your children are not yours but the community's, i.e., the socialist's, your property is not yours but the community's, i.e., the socialist's, your business is not yours but the community's, i.e., the socialist's, you are not yours but the community's, i.e., the socialist's, all that is yours belongs to it, i.e., them (Karl Marx).

"If the 'restoring of life' of the world is to be conceived in terms of the Christian revelation [the Word of God, i.e., the authority of the Father, i.e., doing the Father's will as commanded (correlated to the father's authority in the home, engendering individualism-nationalism, under God, i.e., "rule of law," i.e., "the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof." 1 Corinthians 10:26], then Marx must collapse into a bottomless abyss." (Jürgen Habermas, Theory and Practice)

Das Kapital revolves around Karl Marx's hate of the father's/Father's authority, with the father's/Father's control of capital (which is stored up pleasure) controlling the children's behavior, i.e., their thoughts and their actions, i.e., blessing the children who obey, chastening those who disobey, and casting out (cutting out of his/His will) those why challenge his/His authority, requiring them to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline their "self" in order to do his/His will, i.e., in order to receive an inheritance (stored up pleasure). While the father/Father is not against pleasure itself, giving his children gifts, he is against them loving the gifts (pleasure) more than him/Him, refusing to put them up when told—in order to do what he/He commands—seeking ("lusting" after) the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which the world stimulates instead. While dad and mom might have been (or may be) tyrants, using the office of authority, as disobedient children, i.e., for their own "lusts," i.e., "selfish" pleasures, the office itself is perfect, having been given to them by God, who is perfect, in which to serve Him, doing His will. Karl Marx, seeing the father's/Father's authority as getting in the way of his "lusts," was all about getting rid of (negating) the office itself.

"Once the earthly family [with the children humbling, denying, dying to, controlling, disciplining their "self" in order to do their father's will] is discovered to be the secret of the holy family [with the Son, and all following Him humbling, denying, dying to, controlling, disciplining their "self" in order to do the Father's will], the former [the traditional family, with the children trusting in and obeying the father] must then itself be destroyed [vernichtet, i.e., annihilated (negated)] in theory and in practice [in the children's personal thoughts and social actions—no longer fellowshipping with one another based upon the father's/Father's commands, rules, facts, and truth (customs, traditions, doctrine) but, through dialogue, "building relationship" with one another upon their common "'self interests'" (their carnal desires of the 'moment') instead]." (Karl Marx, Feuerbach Thesis #4)

As Sigmund Freud said, you can keep the father around (physically) as long as he no longer recognizes or uses his office of authority. Since there is no father's/Father's authority in dialogue, keeping dialogue as the means of communication in the home guarantees the father's/Father's authority is negated, is not present in the home.

"'It is not really a decisive matter whether one has killed one's father or abstained from the deed,' if the function of the conflict and its consequences are the same [the father no longer exercises his authority over his family]." (Sigmund Freud in Herbert Marcuse, Eros and Civilization)

The very essence of 'limited' government, unalienable rights, private convictions, private property, private business, inheritance, posterity, individualism (under God), sovereignty, "rule of law," etc., is founded upon the father's authority in the home, i.e., upon the Father's authority over mankind, judging the child's/man's thoughts and actions according to His Word. The "love of the Father" is the ability of the father/Father to love his children while hating what they do when they disobey, judging them for their actions, forgiving, having mercy and grace toward them when the repent and turn from their wicked ways, grieving for them when they refuse to repent and go their way. The child's love on the other hand can not separate itself from the child's love of the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which the world stimulates, loving the object of pleasure (which is of the world) and his hate of restraint, i.e., hate of the father and his authority which gets in the way, with his hate, i.e., rage stimulating pleasure, i.e., satisfaction, i.e., dopamine in his brain—"If I can not get pleasure from what I want, because you are in the way, I will get it in hating you."

"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 1 John 2:15

Marxism, i.e., socialism is based upon the assumption that when a person abdicates the pleasures of the 'moment' which the world is stimulating in order to satisfy someone else's pleasure, he is destroying his "self," making his "self " subject to "an alien and hostile force," resulting in the guilty conscience—"feeling bad" for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning (a product of the child/man accepting and honoring the father's/Father's authority)—getting in the way of "human nature." The only pathway to "freedom" (of "self") is 'liberation' from (negation of) the father's/Father's authority, which, according to him, "the people" created in the first place by their obedience to it. It is not only the father's/Father's authority that, according to this 'logic,' must be negated, it is also the guilty conscience, which the father's/Father's authority engenders, as well. This is where psychology comes into play Psychology and Marxism are both one and the same in thought and in action with one beginning with society, the other with the individual, both ending up in the same place, negating the father's/Father's authority, i.e., 'liberating' children (the psychologist/Marxist) from the father's/Father's authority and the guilty conscience, which the father's/Father's authority engenders.

"The life [authority] which he [the child/man] has given to the object [to the father/Father, i.e., the parent, the teacher, the boss, the ruler, and/or God—when he humbles, denies, dies to, disciplines, controls his "self" in order to do the father's/Father's will, thus, according to Karl Marx, "empowering" the father/Father] sets itself against him as an alien and hostile force." (Karl Marx, MEGA I/3)

"The guilty conscience is formed in childhood by the incorporation of the parents and the wish to be father of oneself." "What we call 'conscience' perpetuates inside of us our bondage to past objects now part of ourselves: " (Norman O. Brown, Life Against Death: The Psychoanalytical Meaning of History)

"Authoritarian submission [the child humbling, denying, dying to, disciplining, controlling his "self" in order to do the father's/Father's will] was conceived of as a very general attitude that would be evoked in relation to a variety of authority figures—parents, older people, leaders, supernatural power, and so forth." "God is conceived more directly after a parental image and thus as a source of support and as a guiding and sometimes punishing authority." "The power-relationship between the parents, the domination of the subject's family by the father or by the mother, and their relative dominance in specific areas of life also seemed of importance for our problem." (Theodor Adorno, The Authoritarian Personality)

"The superego 'unites in itself the influences of the present and of the past.'" (Norman O. Brown, Life Against Death: The Psychoanalytical Meaning of History)

"It is a function of the ego to make peace with conscience, to create a larger synthesis within which conscience, emotional impulses, and self operate in relative harmony." "When this synthesis is not achieved, the superego has somewhat the role of a foreign body within the personality, and it exhibits those rigid, automatic, and unstable aspects discussed above." (Theodor Adorno, The Authoritarian Personality)

"If the guilt accumulated in the civilized domination of man by man can ever be redeemed by freedom, then the 'original sin' must be committed again: 'We must again eat from the tree of knowledge in order to fall back into the state of innocence." (Herbart Marcuse, Eros and Civilization: A philosophical inquiry into Freud)

"To experience Freud is to partake a second time of the forbidden fruit" (Norman O. Brown, Life Against Death: The Psychoanalytical Meaning of History) The master facilitator of 'change,' i.e., the master psychotherapist drew the woman in the garden in Eden into dialogue"What do you think?" "I feel like touching it," "It will not hurt you." "It seems to be good, pleasing, and desires"—in order to 'liberate' her (thoughts and actions) from the Father's authority, with Adam following.

In essence, according to Karl Marx, life only has worth (value) when it is tied to the "building of humanist relationships." In other words, social capital, i.e., a person contribution to society, determines his worth or value, i.e., the individual has no worth or value if he is not a part of "the community," i.e., "the people," i.e., society doing the socialists will, i.e., following after, working for, supporting, protecting, worshiping, and praising socialism, i.e., the socialist, i.e., the 'liberal.'

"It is not individualism [the child holding his "self" accountable to the father's/Father's authority, doing the father's/Father's will instead of his own] that fulfills the individual, on the contrary it destroys him [Marx saw the child's act of obedience to the father, which goes counter to his own carnal nature as empowering the father to "repress" him]. Society ["human relationship based upon self interest," i.e., through dialogue 'discovering' one's identity ("self") in "the group," i.e., in society] is the necessary framework through which freedom [from the father's/Father's authority] and individuality [being "of and for self" and the world only] are made realities." (Karl Marx, in John Lewis, The Life and Teachings of Karl Marx)

"The real nature of man is the totality of social relations." (Karl Marx, Thesis on Feuerbach #6)

"Only within a social context individual man is able to realize his own potential as a rational being." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right)

"Part of the dialectics of the process of winning independence from parental authority lies in using the extrafamilial peer group as a foil to parental authority, particularly in the period of adolescence." (Bradford, Gibb, Benne, T-Group Theory and Laboratory Method: Innovation in Re-education)

"In the dialogic relation of recognizing oneself in the other, they experience the common ground of their existence." (Jürgen Habermas, Knowledge & Human Interest, Chapter Three: The Idea of the Theory of Knowledge as Social Theory)

"For one class [socialists, i.e., children and their carnal nature, i.e., the "disenfranchised"] to stand for the whole of society, another [capitalists, i.e., the father's/Father's authority, i.e., the "repressors" and "alienators"] must be the class of universal offense and the embodiment of universal limits. A particular social sphere must stand for the notorious crime of the whole society, so that liberation from this sphere appears to be universal liberation. For one class to be the class par excellence of liberation, another class must, on the other hand, be openly the subjugating class." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right')

In traditional education, with children divided against one another, i.e., with each child coming from a home with different standards than the other children's home, in the praxis of dialoguing their opinions to a consensus they become one in thought and actions, united in the singular goal of negating the father's/Father's authority, something they could never do on their own, in the home. It is in their new found collective consciousness—based upon their carnal nature, 'liberated' from the father's/Father's authority—that Marxism, i.e., socialism is initiated and sustained, bringing them, i.e., "the group," i.e., society together as one, united in one agenda, the negation of the father's/Father's authority (and the guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning which the father's/Father's authority engenders) from society, so that all "citizens" can do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., be "humanists" with impunity. With capital is no longer under the father's/Father's control, making the children subject to his/His commands, rules, facts, and truth (in other words, if the father/Father no longer controls the capital, he/He can no longer dictate how the children are to think and act—in order to benefit from it) capital, under the control of the children, i.e., under the control of the socialist makes the children subject to society, i.e., to the socialist instead—making sure the socialist is financed, empowered, supported, protected, worshiped, and praised (for 'liberating' the children from the father's/Fathers' authority, i.e., from the father's/Father's control over capital, so they can be themselves, i.e., "of and for self" and the world only, supporting only the socialist, i.e., socialism.

Through the practice of "bipartisanship" the same agenda is taking place in government—with elected officials (representatives) setting aside their constituents principles (platform), i.e., local control, i.e., restraints, in the consensus meeting representing the collectives "feelings," i.e., their own "self interests" instead. When meeting with their constituents they 'justify' their compromise, claiming it was necessary for the "good" of "the people," i.e., for their own "self interest," making their constitutes, if they complain out to be the enemy of "the people" (heartless, uncaring), doing so without having a guilty conscience. In this way the constituents money no longer belongs to them but belongs to "the people," i.e., to the socialist instead. When capital belongs to the children, i.e., to "the people" (the proletariat), those who "helped" the children, i.e., "the people" 'liberate' themselves from the father's/Father's authority, i.e., from the father's/Father's control over capital own it (capital) instead, using it to control "the people", in the name of "the people" for their own pleasure and gain—without having a guilty conscience. "Bipartisanship," i.e., the consensus process, 'justifying' the negation of the father's/Father's authority, i.e., capitalism for the sake of "the people," negates the guilty conscience for all the evil deeds that have been, are, and will be done in order to negate the father's/Father's authority, i.e., capitalism (not only in the consensus meeting but in the enforcement of laws passed to negate the father's/Father's authority, i.e., capitalism from society as well).

"Freud commented that only through the solidarity of all the participants could the sense of guilt [the guilty conscience for disobeying the father/Father, i.e., the constituents] be assuaged." (Norman O. Brown, Life Against Death: The Psychoanalytical Meaning of History)

Sigmund Freud likewise believed "the individual is emancipated in the social group." (ibid.) Herbart Marcuse explained Freud's history of mankind, i.e., his basis ('justification') for psychology as: "hatred against patriarchal suppression—a 'barrier to incest,' ... the desire (for the sons) to return to the mother—[which] culminate[d] in the rebellion of the exiled sons, the collective killing and devouring of the father, and the establishment of the brother clan [socialism]." (Herbart Marcuse, Eros and Civilization: A philosophical inquiry into Freud) Only in Freud's history the "brother clan," having a guilty conscience for killing the father, restoring his "top-down" form of government ("morality") produced civil neurosis (the separation of pleasure and action, where a person is caught between doing the father's/Father's will or doing his will, doing the father's/Father's will instead). "The overthrow of the king-father is a crime, but so is his restoration.... The crime against the reality principle [getting the job that needs to be done, done] is redeemed by the crime against the pleasure principle [repressing man's carnal nature, i.e., his natural "lusting" after the carnal pleasure of the 'moment' which the world stimulates in order to get the job done]: redemption thus cancels itself." (ibid) The only way to overcome this default was to overcome resistance to 'change,' i.e., to overcome the father's/Father's authority in the workplace, i.e., to negate the father's/Father's commands and rules to be obeyed as given and facts and truth to be accepted as is, by faith in the workplace. The 'secret' ingredient is found in dialogue (in the dialectic process, i.e., 'reasoning' through "feelings"), uniting all workers through dialogue, which all children do naturally, negating preaching, teaching, disusing, rewarding, chastening, casting out according to commands, rules, facts, and truth which is established by the boss, i.e., by the father/Father, so all employees can do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., be "human" without having a guilty conscience.

"The philosophers [those who are dissatisfied with how the world "is," i.e., subject to authority (as a child is subject to the father's authority, as man is to God's), thinking about how it "ought" to be, i.e., satisfying their carnal desires ("lusts") of the 'moment' instead] have only interpreted the world in different ways [establishing, i.e., preaching and teaching their "opinion" as the only right way, thus inhibiting or blocking others from enjoying the carnal pleasures ("lusts") of the 'moment' which they desire], the objective however, is change [dialogue; in Marx's case, kill the one who says "Because I said so," i.e., "It is written ...," "This is mine. Not yours," i.e., who prevents dialogue]." (Karl Marx, Feuerbach Thesis #11)

"The individual may have 'secret' thoughts which he will under no circumstances reveal to anyone else if he can help it. To gain access [through getting him or her to dialogue, i.e., to share his or her "feelings" ("lusts" and hate) of the 'moment' with others] is particularly important, for here may lie the individual's potential [for 'change,' i.e., to become of and for his or her "self" and the world only'liberated' from the father's/Father's authority]." (Theodor Adorno, The Authoritarian Personality)

"Parental discipline, religious denunciation of bodily pleasure, . . . have all left man overly docile [obedient to authority], but secretly in his unconscious unconvinced, and therefore neurotic [believing one thing while feeling and/or acting contrary—called belief-action dichotomy, i.e., desiring to obey God, yet sinning, feeling guilty for sinning]." "Neurotic symptoms, with their fixations on perversions and obscenities ["lusting" after the things in the world], demonstrate the refusal of the unconscious essence of our being [our flesh and eyes "lusting" after the pleasures of the world] to acquiesce in the dualism of flesh and spirit, higher and lower [to submit to the father's/Father's authority, doing right and not wrong according to his/His commands, rules, facts, and truth]. The foundation on which the man of the future will be built is already there, in the repressed unconscious [in the child's carnal nature, i.e., sinful nature, i.e., "human nature" "lusting" after the things of the world]; the foundation has to be recovered [by 'liberating' the child's praxis of dialoguing with his "self," where he is 'justifying' his "self," i.e., 'justifying' his love of pleasure and hate of restraint, only doing it with other children, finding "common ground" with them (common-ism), 'creating' a "new" world order, i.e., a world where children thing and act according to their carnal nature, i.e., "human nature" without the father's/Father's restraints]." (Norman O. Brown, Life Against Death: The Psychoanalytical Meaning of History)

It is in the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus, i.e., in affirmation, i.e., in 'creating' a "feeling" of "oneness" with others and putting that "feeling" into social action (praxis) that individualism is negated, i.e., is replaced with socialism, i.e., "building relationship" with others based upon common "self interest," i.e., upon "humanist nature," i.e., upon man "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' which the world stimulates, 'justifying' his hatred toward the father's/Fathers' authority (and anyone who supports and propagates it) which gets in the way of "progress," i.e., the augmentation of pleasure.

"Sense experience must be the basis of all science." "Science is only genuine science when it proceeds from sense experience, in the two forms of sense perception and sensuous need, that is, only when it proceeds from Nature." (Karl Marx, MEGA I/3)

Whoever defines terms for you controls your life. By redefining terms Karl Marx was able to make the "lust of the flesh," "lust of the eyes," and the "pride of life" acceptable (academic) by calling them "sensuous needs," "sense perception," and "sense experience" instead. Doing so he made all things subject to "Nature," i.e., to "human nature" only, thereby making all things subject to science, i.e., "behavior science," 'liberating' the child/man (himself) from the father's/Father's authority (restraints). Abraham Maslow's "hierarchy of felt needs" is in actuality the "hierarchy of the child's carnal lusts" since they negate (leave out) the father's/Father's authority. It is through dialogue that the child's nature is 'justified,' overcoming the father's/Father's authority, i.e., restraints in his thoughts and actions.

"'Capital' … is, according to Marx, 'not a thing but a social relation between persons mediated through things.' 'These relations,' Marx states, 'are not those between one individual and another, but between worker and capitalist, tenant and landlord, [children and their parents] etc. Eliminate these relations ["top-down" authority] and you abolish the whole of society [capitalist based society that is];" (György Lukács, History & Class Consciousness: What is Orthodox Marxism?)

As long as preaching, teaching, discussion, rewarding, chastening, casting out, i.e., doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., the father's/Father's authority, i.e., individualism (under God) remains in place, "humanist relationships," i.e., socialism can not be initiated and/or sustained. The children's parent's standards not only prevent the children from being their "self," "repressing" them, they also, differing from one another, "alienating" the children from one another—separating themselves from one another in order to obey them, i.e., do their parent's will.

"The dialectical method was overthrown—the parts were prevented from finding their definition within the whole." (György Lukács, History & Class Consciousness: What is Orthodox Marxism?)

"The justice of state constitutions is to be decided not on the basis of Christianity, not from the nature of Christian society [humbling, denying, dying to, controlling, disciplining "self" in obedience to authority, i.e., "rule of law"] but from the nature of human society ["self" 'justification']." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right')

"The state arises out of the exigencies of man's nature." (ibid.)

By changing communication from the preaching of commands and rules to be obeyed as given, the teaching of facts and truth to be accepted as is, by faith, the discussing of any questions those under authority might have, at the one in authority's discretion (providing there is time, those under authority can understand, and are not challenging authority), the rewarding of obedience or doing things right, the chastening of disobedience or doing things wrong, and the casting out of any challenging authority to the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus (affirmation) 'changes' those participating in the dialectic (dialogue) process of 'change,' negating the father's/Father's authority in their feelings, thoughts, and actions, 'changing' how they sees their "self," others, and the world, and how they respond to authority—negating the guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying sinning in the process. By bringing dialogue into an environment of established commands, rules, facts, and truth the father's/Father's authority is automatically negated.

"For to accept that solution [where those in authority must dialogue, i.e., set aside, i.e., suspend, as upon a cross established commands, rules, facts, and truth in order to "get along," i.e., "build relationship with one another," i.e., continue dialogue, i.e., participate in the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus process], even in theory, would be tantamount to observing society from a class standpoint [from the child's perspective, from the child's carnal nature] other than that of the bourgeoisie [from the father's/Father's authority]. And no class can do that-unless it is willing to abdicate its power freely." (György Lukács, History & Class Consciousness: What is Orthodox Marxism?)

"Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God." Hebrews 12:21

Capitalism in essence is the capitulation (setting aside) of pleasure (as well as the enduring of pain) in order to enjoy something in the future, i.e., to receive a reward, to make a living, and/or to get ahead, or in the Lord's case suffering the rejection and hate of men (and death on the cross) in order to save us from damnation, i.e., eternal death so He could enjoy spending eternity with us. Doing right and not wrong, according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth often requires the setting aside of pleasure in the present, in order to gain the reward of doing good work (keeping your job and getting paid) and the benefits (pride) which come with doing it right. Socialism on the other hand demands that work be enjoyable in the present if it is to be of value ("actual"), whether it is done right or not. In socialism when a person does the work wrong, he actually did it "badly," which is not a crime unless he was doing it for himself (capitalism), then he was doing it wrong, which is a crime—the idea being, do it in a group then you can blame the group or someone else for not supporting you, thus getting you off the hook. The lessons of history have taught us that capitalism rewards good work,. socialism bad. Traditional education emphasizes the value of capitalism, i.e., doing good work, when it is done fairly (honestly) with compassion toward others. Transformational education pushes socialism. Robert Owens was the founder of socialism. His son, Robert Dale Owens, after observing his father's works, defined it as having only produced and rewarded the "improvident, unskilled, and vicious."

"Self-actualizing people have to a large extent transcended the values of their culture. They are not so much merely Americans as they are world citizens, members of the human species first and foremost." (Abraham Maslow, The Farther Reaches of Human Nature)

The re-educative process has to fulfill a task which is essentially equivalent to a change in culture." (Kurt Lewin in Kenneth Bennie Human Relations in Curriculum Change)

Some refer to this as a "culture war," i.e., a war against the tradition of doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., a war against the father's/Father's "top-down" authority system.

"Bypassing the traditional channels of top-down decision making, our objective centers upon transforming public opinion into an effective instrument of global politics." "Individual values must be measured by their contribution to common interests and ultimately to world interests transforming public consensus into one favorable to the emergence of a stable and humanistic world order." "Consensus is both a personal and a political step. It is a precondition of all future steps." (Ervin Laszlo, A Strategy for the Future: The Systems Approach to World Order)

The dialoguing of opinions to a consensus process ("Bloom's Taxonomies"), when used in a classroom 'changes' how the teacher responds to the students. The teacher no longer honors the obeying of commands and rules as preached, the learning of facts and truth as taught, by faith, etc., but, as a psychotherapist, i.e., a facilitator of 'change' (a Transformational Marxist) accentuates the "positive," i.e., the child's carnal nature, i.e., "human nature" over and therefore against the father's/Father's authority system, negating (attacking with the intent of destroying) the "negative," i.e., the fathers'/Fathers' authority system (called "the negation of negation"), i.e., nationalism so that all students (in the "safe zone/space/place," "positive," i.e., dialoguing opinions to a consensus, soviet, brainwashing, "snowflake" creating classroom) can become 'liberals,' socialists, i.e., "of and for self" and the world only, thinking and acting without having a guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, so that all "the people," including the facilitator of 'change' can do wrong, disobey, sin with impunity instead.

"I have found whenever I ran across authoritarian students [those who honor the father's/Father's authority] that the best thing for me to do was to break their backs immediately." "The correct thing to do with authoritarians is to take them realistically for the bastards they are and then behave toward them as if they were bastards." (Abraham Maslow, Maslow on Management)

Welcome to the contemporary classroom, i.e., what your children, friends, spouse, or you are going to face when they or you go off to college or for special "teambuilding," management, etc., training. All vocations and professions are now subject to what is called "group think," i.e., the consensus process. If your child resists and/or exposes "the group," i.e., holds to the truth instead of suspending it (as upon a cross), i.e., condoning a lie (being "tolerant of ambiguity") in order to be a part of "the group" he will be martyred, i.e., he will be labeled as being negative, divisive, hateful, intolerant, prejudiced, a "lower-order-thinker," maladjusted, not a "team builder," "psychological," mentally ill, "in denial," a sociopath, a Fascist, a Nazi, a racist, neurotic, phobic, unreasonable, irrational, etc., i.e., he will become irrelevant, i.e., like his traditional minded parents. The object is to wash the father's/Father's authority system (Hebrews 12:5-11) from the children's brains so they can do wrong disobey, sin without having a guilty conscience—which the father's authority engenders (Romans 7:14-25)—so they can do wrong, disobey, sin with impunity, i.e., so they can believe in the lie that they are "good" or can become "good" by doing "good deeds," making them "feel good," i.e., god in their eyes, making good and evil, right and wrong (as two children did in the garden of Eden—with the help of the master facilitator of 'change,' Genesis 3:1-6) subject to their "feelings" of the 'moment,' resulting in their having a Facebook mentality—"If I 'like' you, i.e., If you make me 'feel' good, i.e., god in my eyes, you are saved, i.e., you are of worth." "If I do not 'like' you, i.e., if you make me 'feel' bad, i.e., If you do not treat me as god, you are lost, i.e., you are of no worth."

"'The ideological history of the bourgeoisie [those supporting/perpetuating the father's/Father's authority] was nothing but a desperate resistance to every insight into the true nature of the society it had created [the father ruling over the children, i.e., the King ruling over the people, i.e., God ruling over man (oppressing them)] and thus to a real understanding of its class situation [its "creation" of a "top-down," "Do what I say or else" relationship].… the Communist Manifesto makes the point that the bourgeoisie [those initiating and sustaining the father's/Father's authority] produces its own grave-diggers [their children who hate restraint, i.e., who hate the father's/Father's authority].'" (György Lukács, History & Class Consciousness: What is Orthodox Marxism?)

According to Sigmund Freud, the father's/Father's authority resulted in "the rebellion of the exiled sons [and] the collective killing and devouring of the father." (Herbart Marcuse, Eros and Civilization: A philosophical inquiry into Freud) Violence against the father and his authority (and all who support and perpetuate it) is the mandate of all who participate in the dialectic process, i.e., in their opinions ("self interests") being dialogued to a consensus , i.e., in the "building of relationship on self interest," the motto of the French Revolution: Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité.

"Only a world government with world-shared values could be trusted or permitted to take such powers. If only for such a reason a world government is necessary. It too would have to evolve. I suppose it would be weak or lousy or even corrupt at first―it certainly doesn't amount to much now & won't until sovereignty is given up little by little by 'nations.'" "The whole discussion becomes species-wide, One World, at least so far as the guiding goal is concerned. To get to that goal is politics & is in time and space & will take a long time & cost much blood." ". . . A caretaker government could immediately start training for democracy & self-government & give it little by little, as deserved." "This is a realistic combination of the Marxian version & the Humanistic. (Better add to definition of "humanistic" that it also means one species, One World.) (Abraham Maslow, The Journals of Abraham Maslow)

Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov (Vladimir Lenin) stated: "...a more powerful enemy, the bourgeoisie [the citizens honoring (submitting to) the Kings authority over them, the property and business owners expecting the workers to do the same to them, i.e., to honour (submit themselves to) their authority over them, as children, honoring (submitting themselves to) their father's authority over them, as man honors (submits himself to) God's authority over him; all being the same in structure, system, or paradigm (patriarchal)—"top-down," "do it right, i.e., My way, or else," "Mine. Not yours"], whose resistance ... and whose power lies in ... the force of habit, in the strength of small-scale production [in private business, where workers must submit to their bosses authority as children must submit to their father's authority]. Unfortunately, small-scale production [local control, under the father's authority] is still widespread in the world, and small-scale production engenders capitalism [capitulating to the father's authority] and the bourgeoisie [the middle class which initiates and sustains, i.e., engenders and supports the father's authority] continuously, daily, hourly, spontaneously, and on a mass scale. Capitalism and the bourgeois environment … disappears very slowly even after the overthrow of the bourgeoisie, (since the peasantry constantly regenerates the bourgeoisie) give rise to what is essentially the same bourgeois careerism, national chauvinism, petty-bourgeois vulgarity [belief or faith in a higher authority than themselves], etc. —merely varying insignificantly in form—in positively every sphere of activity and life. … until small-scale economy and small commodity production [private property and business under the father's authority] have entirely disappeared, the bourgeois atmosphere, proprietary habits and petty-bourgeois traditions will hamper proletarian work both outside and within the working-class movement, … in every field of social activity, in all cultural and political spheres without exception. We must learn how to master every sphere of work and activity without exception, to overcome all difficulties and eradicate all bourgeois habits, customs and traditions everywhere." (Vladimir Lenin, Left-Wing Communism: an Infantile Disorder; An Essential Condition of the Bolsheviks' Success, May 12, 1920)

When "social worth," i.e., "self interest" is brought up in order to decide how to judge a person, there can be no justice—right and wrong are (individualism, under God is) sacrificed upon the alter of the judges "self interest," i.e., "what can I get out of this for me." Everyone, including the children in the "group grade" classroom, dialoguing their opinions ("feelings") to a consensus (to a "feeling" of "oneness"), affirming their carnal nature over and therefore against the father's/Father's authority, are being judged according to their "social worth," i.e., according to the "self interest" of whoever is—as a pimp or pedophile—seducing, deceiving, and manipulating them, i.e., facilitating the meeting.

"Jurisprudence of terror takes two forms; loosely defined rules which produces unpredictable law, and spontaneous changes in rules to best suit the state [the "self interest" of those in power]." (R. W. Makepeace and Croom Helm, Marxist Ideology and Soviet Criminal Law)

In such an "environment" ("jurisprudence of terror," i.e., the consensus meeting) objective truth, i.e., truth that is (and facts that are) external to the judges ("the consensus groups") carnal desires ("self interest") of the 'moment,' i.e., (facts and) truth that is external to his "sensuous needs" of the 'moment' and his "sense perception" of the situation, i.e., his "sense experience," i.e., his love of pleasure and hate of restraint is rejected—"rule of law" (the standards of the "past") is sacrificed upon the alter of subjective truth (the "feelings" of the "present"), i.e., the judges (groups) carnal desires of the 'moment'—making anyone holding onto objective truth (and facts) the enemy of "the state," i.e., the enemy of "the people," i.e., the enemy of the one(s) in power. In that case, those in power will do whatever it takes (anything) to destroy (negate) those who stand in their way, who bring object truth (and facts) before them—truth being to them whatever is "good," i.e., makes them "feel good," i.e., "feel" like God in their own eyes. In the "environment" of subjective truth "feelings" rule, making rules "unpredictable" and "spontaneous," i.e., subject to whatever keeps those in power, in power. As the heart is "deceitful, above all things," thinking pleasure is the standard for "good" instead of doing the Father's will, i.e., doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth (no matter what it costs you personally) and "desperately wicked," i.e., willing to destroy anyone who gets in its, i.e., pleasures way so are those who rule the world according to their "feelings," i.e., their "felt needs," i.e., their opinions of the 'moment,' which are being stimulated by, i.e., subject to the world, i.e., to "human nature" only. As Karl Marx stated is: laws must not "fetter human life," i.e., get in the way of the carnal desires of those in power (the judge or "the group"—since their "feelings" represent the "feelings" of "the people," including the desire for affirmation, i.e., 'justification' by men—they, in essence, i.e., in their "feelings" of the 'moment' represent "human nature" itself, i.e., all of mankind) but be "changeable," i.e., subject to the "needs," i.e., "felt needs" and the "capacities," i.e., abilities of "the people," i.e., of those in power so they can satisfy (fulfill) their carnal desires ("lusts") of the 'moment,' i.e., their "What can I get out of this situation for me." When "right" become subject to "feeling," i.e., to the person's (judge's) carnal desires of the 'moment,' i.e., subjective, wrong, in regard to their carnal thoughts and carnal actions, is negated. The worst they can do is be judged for having done things "badly," which is not a crime—the person only needing remediation or re-programing,, i.e., to do "public service" to become "healthy," i.e., a "good" citizen again. That makes anyone holding themselves and others subject (accountable) to objective truth, i.e., to the father's/Father's authority, i.e., to the "rule of law" wrong, which is punishable as a crime.

"When a man has finally reached the point where he does not think he knows it better than others [when right and wrong are no longer an issue regarding a persons thoughts and actions], that is when he has become indifferent to what they have done badly [notice that Hegel did not use the word "wrong," which is punishable, only "badly," which is not—letting the socialist "off the hook" for doing wrong. Run your business like this and see how long you stay in business. This is why socialists have to keep looking for more victims to pillage, living off their money and labor, forcing them to pay and support them for the "good" of "the people"] and he is interested only in what they have done right, then peace and affirmation ["the lust of the flesh," "the lust of the eyes," and "the pride of life," i.e., "sensuous needs," "sense perception," and "sense experience" (Karl Marx, MEGA I/3), i.e., "self" 'justification before men] have come to him." (G. F. W. Hegel in Carl Friedrich, The Philosophy of Hegel) When the woman in the garden in Eden ate of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil she, being able to do what she wanted to do, when she wanted to do it, had "peace," and in giving the fruit to Adam, who ate it, she had "affirmation," being 'justified' by someone else regarding her thoughts and actions.

All Das Kapital was about, was the manifestation of Karl Marx's heart, i.e., his hatred toward the father's/Father's authority, restraining him from what he wanted to do, with the father/Father judging him for his sinful ways, engendering a guilty conscience in him, i.e., making him "feel" bad about his "self" for doing it, wanting instead to do wrong, disobey, sin with impunity, wanting everyone else to join him (affirm him) in doing the same, 'justifying' his "self." We now live in the world of Karl Marx's and Sigmund Freud's making, a world where the child's carnal nature rules over and therefore against the father's/Father's authority. You can see it everywhere you go and in everything you see, the questioning, challenging, defying, disregarding, attacking of the father's/Father's authority, with "Make me 'feel good' (right/good/God in my eyes) and I will listen to you" i.e., "you are of worth." "Make me 'feel bad' (wrong/evil/wicked in my eyes) and I will not listen to you," i.e., "you are of no worth" being the language of the day.

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." 2 Timothy 4:3, 4

"This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;" 2 Timothy 3:1-4

"The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes. For he flattereth himself [his "self"] in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful. The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good. He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil." Psalms 36:1-4

"And for this cause [because men 'justify' themselves, i.e., 'justify' their love of "self" and the world, i.e., 'justify' their love of the pleasures of the 'moment' over and therefore against the Father's commands, rules, facts, and truth, thereby 'justifying' their hatred toward the Father's authority] God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie [that pleasure is the standard for "good" instead of doing the Father's will]: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth [in the Father and in His Son, Jesus Christ], but had pleasure in unrighteousness [in their "self" and the pleasures of the 'moment,' which the world stimulates]." 2 Thessalonians 2:11, 12

"For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." Matthew 24:38, 39

The gospel message is all about the Father's authority, sending His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, who in obedience to His Father, died on the cross for our sins, 'redeeming' us from His Father's wrath upon us (because of our sins, covering our sins with his blood), imputing His righteousness to us according to our faith, with the Father raising His Son from the grave, 'reconciling' us to Himself, that we might spend eternity with Him in his holiness, instead of in the torments of the fire of hell, reserved for the master facilitator of 'change' and all who follow him. Those of this world might think hell will be a time to party, but they do not understand that pleasure itself is a gift from God, which will not be present there.

"And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven." Matthew 23:9

"For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother." Matthew 12:50

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6
