The Filter.

"When a man has finally reached the point where he does not think he knows it better than others, that is when he has become indifferent to what they have done badly and he is interested only in what they have done right, then peace and affirmation have come to him." (G. F. W. Hegel, in one of the casual notes preserved at Widener)
"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

What Is Being Filtered Out? The father's/Father's authority, 1. preaching, teaching, discussing established commands, rules, facts, and truth |
|
The Filter: When children, in a facilitated meeting, dialogue their opinions to a consensus, i.e., 'justify' their "self," i.e., 'justify' their carnal nature before one another, they negate (filter out) the father's/Father's authority in their thoughts and actions, negating their having a guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., "lusting" in the process. |

Who Is Using The Filter On The Children And Why? The child's carnal nature, i.e., "human nature" 'liberated' from the father's/Father's authority, i.e., from restraint results in the facilitator of 'change' controlling "the children," i.e., "the group," i.e., "the people," seducing, deceiving, and manipulating them as "human resource" for his own pleasure and gain, i.e., "peace," with their "affirmation." Those children who continue to hold onto the father's/Father's authority, i.e., who condemn "lust," i.e., who inhibit or block 'change' are silenced, censored, removed, and/or negated (filtered out) in the dialogue of opinions to a consensus process, with the facilitator of 'change' in control. Welcome to the so called "new" world order, which was first put into praxis in the garden in Eden, i.e., Genesis 3:1-6., where the master facilitator of 'change,' through the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus process, was able to 'liberate' two "children" from the "Father's" authority, bringing them under his control. The true Christ and those who follow Him, recognize the Father's authority, obeying the Father in all things commanded. The anti-Christ does not, thinking only about his "self," filtering out all who do not affirm him, i.e., praise and worship him, who instead, humbling, denying, dying to, controlling, disciplining their "self," praise and worship of the Father, and His Son, Jesus Christ. That is what the filter, i.e., the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus process is all about, negating the father's/Father's authority so the facilitator of 'change' and all following after him can have "peace and affirmation" in their "self," i.e., in their "lusts," enjoying the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates without having a guilty conscience, i.e., without having to admit they were "wrong," and repent.

In other words, Georg Hegel was saying: when a person is no longer concerned about "content," i.e., about others (and his "self") being right or wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth (notice he used the words "better" and "badly" which are opinion words, which are based upon "feelings" instead of wrong, which is based upon established command, rules, fact, and truth), and is only concerned about "feelings," with "feeling good" being "right," then "peace" (pleasure, i.e., "lust") and "affirmation" (approval, i.e., "self" 'justification' before others) have come to him. In one sentence Georg Hegel 'justified' "human nature," i.e., "the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life," i.e., that which is "of the world" over and therefore against the "Father's" authority, i.e., doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth. Dialectic 'reasoning,' i.e., 'reasoning' through the use of dialogue, i.e., 'reasoning' from and through your "feelings," i.e., your carnal desires, i.e., your "self interests," i.e., your "lusts" of the 'moment' which are being stimulated by the world (by the situation), i.e., which are being manipulated by others (you seduce, deceive, and manipulate others and are seduced, deceived, and manipulated by others via. "feelings," you persuade others and are persuaded by others via. established commands, rules, facts, and truth), is you 'justifying' your "self," i.e., you 'justifying' your "lust of the flesh," your "lust of the eyes," and your "pride of life," i.e., you 'justifying' "human nature" before others, negating (filtering out), in your thoughts and in your actions the father's/Father's authority, i.e., your having to do the father's/Father's will.
"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
As a friend of mine, Steve Rea, says, "No matter how you toss it up, three hundred and sixty-five days a year it comes down the same way, it lands on all four feet," i.e., the outcome is always the same. If you do the dialectic process, i.e., 'justify' your "self" before others, the father's/Father's authority is negated (filtered out) in your and their thoughts and actions (praxis). Dialogue, i.e., your carnal desires ("lusts") of the 'moment' being 'justified' by others—being "positive" to both you and them—always filters out (negates) discussion, i.e., having to do right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., having to do the father's/Father's will—being "negative" to both you and them—when the two are brought together to solve a crisis, i.e., to decide what to do in a situation. In brief: dialogue filters out (negates) discussion—since dialogue is you 'justifying' your "self" before others (and them doing the same before you), negating (in your and their mind) your and their having to do right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., negating (filtering out) your and their having to do the father's/Father's will as an issue.
The dialoguing of opinions to a consensus (affirmation) process, i.e., "self" 'justification' before others always filters out (negates) the father's/Father's authority, i.e., having to do right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., having to do the father's/Father's will.
"We are not attempting to classify the particular subject matter or content." "What we are classifying is the intended behavior of students—the ways in which individuals are to act, think, or feel as the result of participating in some unit of instruction." "Educational procedures are intended to develop the more desirable rather than the more customary types of behavior." "[W]e recognize the point of view that truth and knowledge are only relative and that there are no hard and fast truths which exist for all time and places." (Benjamin Bloom, et al., Taxonomy of Educational Objectives, Book 1, Cognitive Domain) All "educators" are certified and schools accredited today based upon their use of what are called "Blooms' Taxonomies," i.e., "a psychological classification system" as their curriculum (method of teaching) in the classroom—through dialogue replacing established commands, rules, facts, and truth with opinion, making the student's "feelings," in the "light" of the given situation, the foundation from which to 'discover' the truth, doing so in the name of "tolerance." If you tolerate wrong, i.e., "lust," wrong becomes right, i.e., the "norm," making right, i.e., doing the father's/Father's will wrong. "In fact, a large part of what we call "good teaching" is the teacher's ability to attain affective objectives ['liberating' the students "feelings" from their parent's authority] through challenging the student's fixed beliefs and getting them to discuss issues [personal-social issues which in actuality is dialogue, i.e., done through dialogue]." "The affective domain is, in retrospect, a virtual 'Pandora's Box' [a "box" full of evils, which once opened, can not be closed].' It is in this 'box' that the most influential controls are to be found [the students can be 'liberated' from the father's/Father's authority system, i.e., their parent's authority]." "There are many stories of the conflict and tension that these new practices are producing between parents and children." "Bloom's Taxonomies" are all about "ordering" "different kinds of affective behavior," i.e., "the range of emotion(s)" "organized into value systems and philosophies of life [in order to change' the students paradigm, i.e., their way of thinking and acting, i.e., in order to turn them into socialists]." (David Krathwohl, Benjamin S. Bloom, Taxonomy of Educational Objectives Book 2: Affective Domain) As Kurt Lewin said: "The child takes on the characteristic behavior of the group in which he is placed. . . . he reflects the behavior patterns [paradigm] which are set by the adult leader of the group." "Change in methods of leadership is probably the quickest way to bring about a change in the cultural atmosphere of a group." "Any real change of the culture [paradigm] of a group is, therefore, interwoven with the changes of the power constellation within the group." (Kurt Lewin in Wilbur Brookover, A Sociology of Education; and in Barker, Dembo, & Lewin, "frustration and regression: an experiment with young children" in Child Behavior and Development) The "educator" does not have to tell the students to question, challenge, defy, disregard, attack their parent's authority when they get home from school (if they were not doing that already), telling them would be "old school," re-establishing the father's/Father's authority way of thinking and acting, all they have to do, using "Bloom's taxonomies" as their curriculum, is create a classroom environment where the students can dialogue their opinions to a consensus (affirmation), i.e., filter out (negate) their parent's established commands, rules, facts, and truth concerning personal-social issues and they will do that automatically when they get home from school. The classroom environment, i.e., the curriculum (filter) used will guarantee it.
For Hegel, et al, i.e., for those who 'justify' their "self" before men, i.e., for those of dialectic 'reasoning,' who 'reason' from their "feelings" it is through the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus process that "peace and affirmation," i.e., "self" 'justification,' i.e., "self" esteem, i.e., "self actualization" becomes 'reality,' a process which negates the father's/Father's authority, i.e., having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline one's "self" in order to do right according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, negating the guilty conscience (which the father's/Father's authority engenders) for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., "lusting" in the process, so man can (including Hegel himself could) do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., "lust" i.e., have "peace" with impunity, i.e, with "affirmation," i.e., with the approval of others (of like mind and action). The dialoguing of opinions to a consensus process 'creates' a new world order of "lawfulness without law" (Immanuel Kant, Critique of Judgment), where children of disobedience, i.e., the child's carnal nature, i.e., "lust" rules without the father's/Father's restraints getting in the way.
"[E]very one of us shall give account of himself to God." Romans 14:12
"The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes. For he flattereth himself 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
In dialogue, in an opinion, and in the consensus process there is no father's/Father's authority, i.e., there is "no fear of God," there is only the carnal nature, i.e., the "self interest," i.e., the "lusts" of the child and the "pride of life," i.e., "self" 'justification' before men. This is why the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus process is used by psychologists, i.e., behavioral "scientists," i.e., "group psychotherapists," i.e., facilitators of 'change,' i.e., Marxists (Transformational Marxists)—all being the same in method or formula— who, wanting to 'justify' their "self," i.e., 'justify' their "lusts" before men (so they can "lust" without having a guilty conscience), use dialogue to filter out the father's/Father's authority in their communication with others, through dialogue establishing policies and making laws that are based upon the child's carnal nature, i.e., the child's "feelings," i.e., the child's "lust" for the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' (dopamine emancipation) that the world stimulates instead, thereby negating the children, "the group," "the people," and their "self" from having to do right according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth so the children, "the group," "the people," and they can do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., "lust," i.e., have "peace" with impunity, i.e., with "affirmation," i.e., with the children's, "the group's," and "the people's" approval (as was first put into praxis in the garden in Eden—Genesis 3:1-6).
"Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished." Proverbs 16:5

"By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil." Proverbs 16:6
"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths." Proverb. 3: 5-6
"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
Facilitators of 'change,' i.e., psychologists, i.e., behavioral "scientists," i.e., "group psychotherapists," i.e., Marxists (Transformational Marxists)—all being the same in method or formula—are using the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus (affirmation) process, i.e., dialectic 'reasoning' ('reasoning' from/through the students "feelings" of the 'moment,' i.e., from/through their "lust" for pleasure and their hate of restraint, in the "light" of their desire for group approval, i.e., affirmation and fear of group rejection) in the "group grade," "safe zone/space/place," "Don't be negative, be positive," soviet style, brainwashing (washing the father's/Father's authority from the children's thoughts and actions, i.e., "theory and practice," negating their having a guilty conscience, which the father's/father's authority engenders, for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning in the process—called "the negation of negation" since the father's/Father's authority and the guilty conscience, being negative to the child's carnal nature, is negated in dialogue—in dialogue, opinion, and the consensus process there is no father's/Father's authority), inductive 'reasoning' ('reasoning' from/through the students "feelings," i.e., their natural inclination to "lust" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment'—dopamine emancipation—which the world stimulates, i.e., their "self interest," i.e., their "sense experience," selecting "appropriate information"—excluding, ignoring, or resisting, i.e., rejecting any "inappropriate" information, i.e., established command, rule, fact, or truth that gets in the way of their desired outcome, i.e., pleasure—in determining right from wrong behavior), "Bloom's Taxonomy," "affective domain," French Revolution (Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité) classroom "environment" in order (as in "new" world order) to 'liberate' children from parental authority, i.e., from the father's/Father's authority system (the Patriarchal Paradigm)—seducing, deceiving, and manipulating them as chickens, rats, and dogs, i.e., treating them as natural resource ("human resource") in order to convert them into 'liberals,' socialists, globalists, so they, 'justifying' their "self" before one another, can do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., "lust" with impunity.
"Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken." Jeremiah 6:16, 17
Home schooling material, co-ops, conferences, etc., are joining in the same praxis, fulfilling Immanuel Kant's as well as Georg Hegel's, Karl Marx's, and Sigmund Freud's agenda of using the pattern or method of Genesis 3:1-6, i.e., "self" 'justification,' i.e., dialectic (dialogue) 'reasoning," i.e., 'reasoning' from/through your "feelings," i.e., your carnal desires of the 'moment' which are being stimulated by the world (including your desire for approval from others, with them affirming your carnal nature) in order to negate Hebrews 12:5-11, i.e., the father's/Father's authority, i.e., having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline your "self" in order to do the father's/Father's will, negating Romans 7:14-25, i.e., your having a guilty conscience when you do wrong, disobey, sin, thereby negating your having to repent before the father/Father for your doing wrong, disobedience, sins—which is the real agenda.
"And for this cause [because men, as "children of disobedience," 'justify' their "self," i.e., 'justify' their love of "self" and the world, i.e., their love of the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' (dopamine emancipation) which the world stimulates over and therefore against 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
