Innocence

Dean Gotcher

"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)

Dialectic 'reasoning' (the 'reasoning' of Hegel, Marx and Freud) is based upon the premise that "human nature" is "good" or has the potential of becoming "good" as man and child work for the "common good" (create community) and that anything which inhibits the potential of "human nature," i.e. the Father's authority restraining "human nature" (divides community), is "evil." By starting with the nature of the child, i.e. "human nature," as being the thesis, i.e. the "good," the Father's authority, the engender of "self-restraint," i.e. of "repression," alienation," and "neurosis," is perceived as being the antithesis, the source of "evil." By the children, who are already dialoging (reflecting) within themselves, regarding how the world "ought" to be, i.e. according to their "human nature," i.e. their hearts desires, now dialoguing amongst themselves, i.e. how they "feel" and what they "think" regarding the situation or crisis of the 'moment,' they come to realize their "oneness," i.e. what they all have in common, i.e. their "human nature" and their dissatisfaction with the Father's authority which restraints it. In this way of thinking, that which was "innocent" before the Father's first command and threat of chastening, is now recovered, actualized by the 'justification' of "human nature" over and against the Father's authority, with the facilitator of 'change,' i.e. the initiator and sustainer of dialectic 'reasoning' becoming the savior of the world, 'redeeming' the child from the Father's authority, 'reconciling' him back to the world, i.e. no longer living as one, i.e. isolated, alone amongst the many (isolated from the world, i.e. thinking and acting according to the Father's authority) but now as at-one-with himself (his carnal nature) and the world, making himself and others, i.e. the world a "better" place to live within, i.e. in the praxis of synthesis, i.e. in consensus, 'liberating' himself and the world from the Father's authority.

In this way of thinking and acting (through the use of dialectic 'reasoning") unrighteousness, i.e. "human nature" becomes righteousness and righteousness, obedience to the Father's authority becomes unrighteousness, with sin, i.e. "eating from the tree of knowledge" becoming the way of life, restoring man to a state of innocence, making unrighteousness, i.e. abomination, 'good" and righteousness, i.e. faith in the Lord God and the Lord Jesus Christ (the Father and the Son) alone, i.e. restraining "human nature" (condemning sin), "evil." The consensus process, as put into praxis today in education, in the workplace, in government, and in the church is thus the way of restoring innocence to man as he kills, tears down, and destroys the "old" world order with its Father's authority. Doing so, i.e. killing the unborn, the elderly, and anyone who stands in its way, without a "guilty conscience," i.e. 'justifying' its praxis for the "common good," making unrighteousness, i.e. abomination the law of the land with the lawless one, i.e. the master facilitator of 'change' leading the way. Innocence is now being restored as the children are being raised in a homosexual home, 'liberated' from the restraints of the Father's authority. It is what "Bloom's Taxonomies," Common Core, and the "new" world order are all about, making mankind God, making himself as "one," as he creates a "new" world made only of his image, i.e. as he negates the God of the Scriptures (the Father's authority) from his thoughts and his actions. Those of dialectic 'reasoning' must destroy innocence (expose the child to abomination) to 'liberate' the child from the Father's authority, making abomination the only way of life. "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 16:5

"Individual psychology is thus in itself group psychology ... the individual ... is an archaic identity with the species." "This archaic heritage bridges the 'gap between individual and mass psychology.'" (Freud, Moses and Monotheism in Herbart Marcuse, Eros and Civilization: A philosophical inquiry into Freud)

"In the process of history man gives birth to himself. He becomes what he potentially is, and he attains what the serpent―the symbol of wisdom and rebellion―promised, and what the patriarchal, jealous God of Adam did not wish: that man would become like God himself." (Erich Fromm, You shall be as gods)

George Hegel wrote: "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." "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)

Karl Marx wrote: "Once the earthly family is discovered to be the secret of the holy family [with the Son being obedient to His Father's authority in all things, even unto death], the former must itself be annihilated theoretically and practically." (Karl Marx, Feuerbach Thesis #4)

Sigmund Freud wrote: "'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." (Herbart Marcuse explaining Freud's historiography in his book, Eros and Civilization: a psychological inquiry into Freud) "Freud speaks of religion [loving the Father over and against the world] as a 'substitute-gratification' – the Freudian analogue to the Marxian formula, 'opiate of the people." "We must return to Freud and say that incest guilt [the Father's authority engendering a "guilty conscience" in the child while he is doing (or thinking about doing) that which comes naturally, i.e. becoming at-one-with the world in pleasure, i.e. following after his carnal nature, i.e. satisfying his urges and impulses of the 'moment, i.e. "lusting" after the things of the world—Freud considered children as being sexually active, just not able to procreate] created the familial organization." (Norman O. Brown, Life Against Death: The Psychoanalytical Meaning of History) "... the hatred against patriarchal suppression—a ‘barrier to incest,' ... the desire (for the sons) to return to the mother [to be at-one-with nature, i.e. following after their natural urges and impulses of the 'moment']—culminates in the rebellion of the exiled sons, the collective killing and devouring of the father, and the establishment of the brother clan," (Herbart Marcuse explaining Freud's historiography in his book, Eros and Civilization: a psychological inquiry into Freud)

"Freud noted that patricide and incest are part of man's deepest nature." (Irvin D. Yalom, Theory and Practice and Group Psychotherapy)

"Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God." 1 Corinthians 6:9-11

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God." John 3:16-21
