The Marxist Bait And Hook.
(Personal note.)

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

"To enjoy the present reconciles us to the actual." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right') In other words, according to Karl Marx and his followers it is "lust" that "reconciles you to" "the world," i.e., to what is "actual." This requires the negation of the father's/Father's authority in order for "self," i.e., "lust," i.e., your "self interest" to become "actual," i.e., for you to become "self-actualized." See the issue "Chasing Dopamine."

"... every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death" James 1:14,15

"Flee also youthful lusts:" 2 Timothy 2:22

"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

The bait that Marxists use to draw you to their hook is your "feelings," i.e., your "self interest," i.e., your "lusts" of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating, i.e., you saying to your "self" "What can I get out of this situation and/or person for my 'self?'" The Marxist hook is your desire to be approved, i.e., affirmed by others, 'justifying' your "lusts" of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating which then ignites your fear of rejection, i.e., "What is going to happen to me if they 'reject' me?," i.e., "What will 'the group' think?" or "What will happen to the group (which you are now part of, i.e., which is your pathway to pleasure) if it is broken up or punished?" which then 'justifies, in your mind the negation of the father's/Father's authority that gets in the way—that "represses" you, i.e., that divides you from your "self" and "alienates" you from others, both of which would 'justify' your "lusts." Marxists, Socialists, Psychologists, you, your spouse, your children, your neighbors, etc., have this one thing in common—what "self" and "others" have in common—"the lust of the flesh," "the lust of the eyes," and "the pride of life," which is the basis of "common"-ism. When you negate the Father's authority, i.e., negate "every one of us shall give account of himself to God." (Romans 14:12), i.e., when you replace "Thou shalt surely die," i.e. that which is "negative" with "Ye shall not surely die," i.e., that which is "positive" (Genesis 2:17; 3:4) from your thoughts and actions, i.e., when you remove God, i.e., fear of judgment (from God) from your conversation with your "self," making your "self," like Karl Marx, God, i.e., "I am nothing and I should be everything" (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right'), then you are thinking and acting like a Marxist, i.e., 'justifying' your "self," i.e., your "lusts" before your "self" and others, negating the guilty conscience that the father's/Father's authority engenders for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., for "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating, so you can do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., "lust" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' (dopamine emancipation) that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating with impunity, i.e., with "the group" approval, i.e., affirmation.

"One of the most fascinating aspects of group therapy is that everyone is born again, born together ['liberated' from the father's/Father's authority] in the group." (Irvin D. Yalom, The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy)

"It is usually easier to change individuals formed into a group than to change any one of them separately." (Kurt Lewin in Kenneth Bennie, Human Relations in Curriculum Change) The dynamics of "the group" ("group dynamics"), i.e., the persons desire for "the groups" approval (affirming his carnal desires) has a direct effect upon his thinking and acting.

"Lust" and "'self' preservation" go hand in hand. The one seduces you while the other takes control of you. Just because you want to do it (whatever it is) and "everyone is doing it," i.e., "It 'seems' like everyone is doing it" does not make it right. Two wrongs or a million wrongs do not make a wrong right. Marxists make wrong right by getting rid of wrong, i.e., by negating those who tell them they are wrong, holding them accountable (negating them) for making them "feel" bad, i.e., for attempting to engender a guilty conscience in them for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., for "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating. When caught doing wrong Marxist go to dialogue, i.e., to "Everyone is entitled to their opinion" or "That is your opinion," where there is no wrong, only going to discussion (where there is wrong) when you are wrong, holding you accountable—making you wrong for accusing them of being or doing wrong, i.e., for hurting their "feelings," i.e., for getting in the way of their "lusts." In the Marxist courtroom, the victim is punished for hurting the perpetrators "feelings," not understanding that the perpetrator is human to, only trying to satisfy his "lust" which "society" aka the victim was preventing. When you find yourself in a "Be positive, Not negative" environment you are in a Marxist camp ground meeting—where anyone accusing the Marxist of being wrong is "negative," needing to be "positive" or silenced or "removed." The emphasis being "Can't we all just be 'positive,' i.e., be Marxists and get along?" Marxists, in their mind are never wrong, only needing to do things "better" if things do not go their way, i.e., when they get caught—holding all who accuse them of being wrong guilty of a crime, hurting their "feelings," preventing, i.e., inhibiting or blocking them from reaching their full potential. Anyone bringing an established command, rule, fact, or truth into a Marxist camp meeting, i.e., the dialoguing of opinions to a consensus meeting, exposing the Marxist as being wrong is the source of controversy and division, i.e., the enemy of "the group," i.e., the "people," preventing group harmony, needing to be "converted," silence, or removed (martyred, i.e., negated) in order to prevent "the group" or some in "the group" from developing a guilty conscience for doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., for "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating, i.e., for not doing the father's/Father's will, engendering division, i.e., inhibiting or blocking social harmony..

"The heart is deceitful above all things [thinking pleasure is the standard for "good" instead of doing the father's/Father's will, i.e., having to set aside your carnal desires of the 'moment,' i.e., having to humble, deny, die to, control, discipline your "self" in order (as in "old" world order) to do the father's/Father's will, i.e., in order to do right and not wrong according the father's/Father's established commands, rules, facts, and truth], and desperately wicked [hating the father's/Father's authority that "gets in the way," i.e. that prevents, i.e., inhibits or blocks you from enjoying the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates]: who can know it?" Jeremiah 17:9 You can not see your hate of restraint as being evil, i.e., "wicked" ("desperately wicked") because your love of pleasure ("self interest"), i.e., your love of "lust," getting in the way blinds you to it. Like a drug, pleasure (dopamine emancipation), i.e., "self interest," i.e., "the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life," which the world stimulates blinds you to your hatred toward restraint, i.e., blinds you to your "wickedness" which is being expressed toward those who are preventing (or trying to prevent) you from having access to the drug, i.e., to pleasure (dopamine emancipation) when you are doing wrong, disobeying, sinning—making you not just wicked but "desperately wicked" in your effort to attain it, keep it, or get it back.

When you make "feelings" and "self preservation," i.e., "the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life" the agenda (the 'drive' and 'purpose') of life the only recourse you have, when the father/Father, i.e., the truth, i.e., that which is "negative" shows up is to negate it, called "the negation of negation."

"The Communist Manifesto makes the point that the bourgeoisie [those initiating and sustaining the father's/Father's authority system, doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth no matter what it costs] produces its own grave-diggers [their children "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates, hating restraint, i.e., killing the father, negating the father's/Father's authority system in their thoughts and actions].'" (György Lukács, History & Class Consciousness: What is Orthodox Marxism?) Dialogue with "self" 'justifies' the "lusts," dialoguing with others 'justifies' "the pride of life," i.e., 'justifies' digging the father's grave with God, having the last word, saying "Do not ask who's grave you are digging. You are digging your own."

Forcing everyone into dialoguing their opinions to a consensus, i.e., into suspending the truth, as upon a cross in order to "get along," i.e., in order to "build relationships," when it comes to determining right and wrong behavior does the trick, i.e., accomplishes the deed, 'justifying' the Marxist's desired outcome, freedom to "lust" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world stimulates, negating anyone who gets in the way, including the unborn, the elderly, the innocent, the righteous without having a guilty conscience (which the father's/Father's authority engenders), with "the group's," i.e., "the people's" affirmation—engendering freedom from the conscience. You took the bait and became hooked the 'moment' you, through dialogue with your "self" and with others, established your carnal desires, which includes the approval of men, i.e., the "building of relationship upon self interest," i.e., "the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life" as being the 'drive' and the 'purpose' of life instead of doing the Father's will, i.e., holding to His position, i.e., the truth.

"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

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

"The words 'seem to' are significant; it is the perception which functions in guiding behavior." (Carl Rogers, on becoming a person: A Therapist View of Psychotherapy)

"[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." (Book 1, Cognitive Domain) All "educators" are certified and schools accredited today based upon their use of what are called "Bloom's Taxonomies," i.e., Marxist curriculum in the classroom.

"In the eyes of the dialectic philosophy, nothing is established for all times, nothing is absolute or sacred." (Karl Marx)

"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."
'...we can be more deliberate and hence more successful in our cultural design. We can achieve a sort of control under which the controlled though they are following a code much more scrupulously 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." "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." (Rogers) emphasis added.

"Prior to therapy the person is prone to ask himself, 'What would my parents want me to do?' During the process of therapy the individual come to ask himself, 'What does it mean to me?'" (Rogers)

"The individual may have 'secret' thoughts ["lusts"] which he will under no circumstances reveal to anyone else if he can help it [out of fear of being judged, rejected, and/or punished]. To gain access [through getting him or her to dialogue, i.e., to share his or her "feelings," i.e., carnal desires ("lusts") and dissatisfactions 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]." This was accomplished by "encouraging" students "to talk freely ... by indicating, for example, that critical remarks about parents were perfectly in place, thus reducing defenses as well as feelings of guilt and anxiety." (Theodor Adorno, The Authoritarian Personality)

"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." "In fact, a large part of what we call "good teaching" is the teacher's ability to attain affective objectives through challenging the student's fixed beliefs and getting them to discuss issues." (Book 2: Affective Domain) Once the lid to the child's carnal nature is removed, i.e., once the father's/Father's authority is negated in the child's thoughts, the child is 'liberated' to do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., to "lust" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating without having a guilty conscience, 'justifying' the removal of all who get in his way, including the unborn, the elderly, the innocent, and the righteous with impunity.

"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)

"Few individuals, as Asch has shown, can maintain their objectivity in the face of apparent group unanimity." "To question the value or activities of the group, would be to thrust himself into a state of dissonance." (Irvin D. Yalom, The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy)

"And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you." 2 Peter 2:3

Through the use of dialogue, gaining access to your "self interest," i.e., your carnal desires, i.e., your "feelings," i.e., your "lusts" of the 'moment,' i.e., what you "covet," using "feigned words," i.e., plastic words (πλαστός, i.e., plastos; Greek) giving you what you want to hear ("Trust me/us." "I am/We are here to help you." "We are in this together." "We working for Us." etc.,) in order to gain your trust ("building relationship with you based upon your and their common self interest") thereby being able to move you down their pathway, they are able to turn you into "human resource," i.e., "merchandise" so they can use you (fearful of what they might do to you if do not please them or you get in their way) for their own pleasure and gain (profit), buying and selling your soul on the open market of trade, with your approval. Once you are hooked you can not get off, i.e., you have nothing wherewith to pay them off—they own it all (you gave it to them when they hooked you on your desire for their approval).

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

"Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet." Romans 7:7

If you reject (set aside) God's law—out of your fear of the rejection of men, i.e., the pleasure that comes with men's approval (affirmation)—you have no one to blame but your "self" when you are cast aside by them (once they have no use for you or you get in their way) and, after death—for your sins, i.e., for establishing your "self," i.e., your "self interest," i.e., your "lusts" over and therefore against God the Father's authority (making your "self" God)—you are cast into the lake of fire that is never quenched. When you remove God from your communication with your "self" you become God ("good" in your own eyes—only God is good), demanding that all worship you, removing those who do not, facing God's wrath on you (for being God, i.e., for being "good" in your eyes) on judgment day. Since the child can not separate pleasure from "life" and the missing out on pleasure from "death," once pleasure, i.e., "life" is initiated and sustained in "the group" anyone coming against "the group" ("life") must be negated in order to sustain "life," i.e., "the group." This is why the hook, i.e., approval from others, i.e., affirmation, i.e., "the pride of life," i.e., "self" 'justification' before others is so intoxicating, addictive, and possessive, taking control of a persons thoughts and actions—to the death.

"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

"Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD." Jeremiah 17:5

"Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them." Ephesians 5:5-7

The child can not separate pleasure from life and the missing out on pleasure from death. It is the father's/Father's authority, through chastening the child when the child does wrong that reveals to the child that separation from pleasure is not death, learning to humble, deny to, control, discipline his "self" in order to do right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., in order to do the father's/Father's will instead, getting pleasure out of being right, i.e., out of doing the father's/Father's will, which is life, instead of doing his own will which is "lust," i.e., death. While the father has authority over his children in his home he does not have the same authority over his children when they grow up and leave home, i.e., get married, having children of their own, the son now the head of his home. This applies to the workplace as well, with his employees being subject to his authority, with employees under other authority not subject to his authority. If the father tries to claiming authority over his relatives, neighbors, other's employees, etc., demanding they do what he says or else, he is a despot. All he can do is refuse to go into partnership with them, let them come into his house, i.e., under his roof, or take control over his children—the same right they have.

"Any non-family-based collectivity that intervenes between parent and child and attempts to regulate and modify the parent-child relationship will have a democratizing impact on that relationship." "For however much the state or community may wish to inculcate obedience and submission in the child, its intervention betrays a lack of confidence in the only objects from whom a small child can learn authoritarian submission," ". . . any intervention between parent and child tend to produce familial democracy regardless of its intent." "The consequences of family democratization take a long time to make themselves felt—but it would be difficult to reverse the process once begun." (Warren Bennis, The Temporary Society)

"Once the earthly family is discovered to be the secret of the Holy family, the former must then itself be destroyed [vernichtet, i.e., annihilated, i.e., negated] in theory and in practice." (Karl Marx, Feuerbach Thesis #4)

"'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 the family]." "... the hatred against patriarchal suppression—a 'barrier to incest,' ... the desire (for the sons) to return to the mother culminates in the rebellion of the exiled sons, the collective killing and devouring of the father." (Sigmund Freud in Herbert Marcuse, Eros and Civilization: a psychological inquiry into Freud) Focusing upon the family established the child's "feelings" and "human relationship," i.e., "lust" and "the pride of life" over and therefore against the father's/Father's authority, i.e., doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, negating the father's/Father's authority in the children's thoughts and actions.

"Authoritarian submission [humbling, denying, dying to, controlling, disciplining "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." "Submission to authority, desire for a strong leader, subservience of the individual to the state [parental authority, local control, Nationalism], and so forth, have so frequently and, as it seems to us, correctly, been set forth as important aspects of the Nazi creed that a search for correlates of prejudice had naturally to take these attitudes into account." "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 [how to 'liberate' children from parental authority, man from God's authority, mankind from Nationalism aka Fascism, etc., so they can be their "self," i.e., "actualize" their "self," no longer seeing their "self" as being subject to a higher authority other then to their carnal desires of the 'moment']." (Adorno) The error in this 'logic' is that all forms of socialism, including Fascism must negate the father's/Father's authority, i.e., accountability to a higher authority other than one's own carnal desires ("lusts") in order to rule over "the people."

"Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby." Hebrews 12:5-11

The Marxist, rejecting the father's/Father's authority, i.e., Hebrews 12:5-11 outright, establishing pleasure ("lust") as being "life" and the missing out on pleasure (doing the father's/Father's will) as being "death" instead, sees it differently. It is in the father's act of compromise (setting aside the standards he holds his "self," his wife, and his children to in the home) in order to initiate or sustain "relationship," i.e., pleasure with those outside his home, i.e., his relatives, neighbors, etc., that 'justifies' in the Marxist's mind the need to compromise for the sake of "relationship" with his wife and his children in the home and "relationship" with his employees working for him. This 'justifies' in the Marxist's mind the law of compromise, i.e., setting aside all standards, i.e., commands, rules, facts, and truth that get in the way of initiating and sustaining "relationship" with others, making "the lust of the flesh and eyes," i.e., the bait and "the pride of life," i.e., the hook all there is to life (with Marxists, Socialists, Psychologists reeling everyone in under their control), 'justifying' the negation of the father's/Father's authority and the guilty conscience it engenders in order to have "life"—bringing the Father's "wrath" upon them and those who follow after them (for rejecting His authority) in the end (after death). Dialogue, where you must suspend, as upon a cross any command, rule, fact, or truth that gets in the way of "relationship," 'justifies' pleasure as "life" and the missing out on pleasure as "death." Discussion, on the other hand, where you must, as upon a cross suspend your "self," i.e., your "lusts," i.e., your carnal desires of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating (in order to hear and receive the truth) establishes doing right as life and doing wrong as death (there is a consequence to being wrong). The child and the world go to dialogue , i.e., to "lust" and "the pride of life," i.e., the bait and hook of the Marxist, Socialist, Psychologist when it comes to determining right and wrong behavior so they can do wrong, disobey, sin, i.e., can "lust" after the carnal pleasure of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people stimulate without having a guilty conscience, with impunity—dying in their sins. The father/Father goes to discussion, cutting off dialogue with "Because I said so"/"It is written," chastening the child/man when he disobeys, for the child's/man's soul sake. You do not walk by "lust." You walk away from it (the Scriptures say "flee" from it)—if you do not, you will get hooked.

"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 by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God; not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians. 2:8, 9"For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ." Galatians 1:10

"Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself [get rid of the bait, i.e., deny "the lust of the flesh and eyes"], and take up his cross [get rid of the hook, i.e., reject the approval of men, i.e., "the pride of life," enduring the rejection of men for not affirming their "lusts"], and follow me [doing the Father's will]. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works." Matthew 16:24-27

"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
