"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

In a discussion, which is objective, i.e., formal, i.e., focused upon doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth the person doing right according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth is the victim when he is done wrong by someone breaking the law, i.e., disobeying established commands, rules, facts, and truth. In dialogue, which is subjective, i.e., informal, i.e., focused upon the persons thoughts ("I think") which are controlled by his "feelings" ("I feel"), the person whose "feelings" are hurt, i.e., who's opinion is restrained by established commands, rules, facts, and truth is the victim, making the person holding themselves and others accountable to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., "rule of law" the criminal. In dialogue "rules" are "loosely defined," making "law" subject to the persons "feelings," i.e., opinion, i.e., "self interests," i.e., "felt needs," i.e., carnal desires, i.e., "lusts" of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating, making "law" easily 'changeable' "to best suit" the "self interest" of those in power in the 'moment,' making the victim the criminal when his established rights (rules) get in the way of the lawmaker's, the court's, and the criminal's "self interest," i.e., "lusts" of the 'moment.'

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

When lawmakers and the courts turn to "feelings," i.e., to opinion, i.e., to dialogue , i.e., to "self interest," i.e., to "lust" to determine right and wrong behavior instead of to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, i.e., to "rule of law," i.e., to discussion the citizen, holding himself and others accountable to established commands, rules, facts, and truth—that get in the way of the other person's "feelings," i.e., the other persons "lusts" of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating—is the criminal, victimizing themselves and the other person when they hold everyone accountable to established commands, rules, facts, and truth, needing to 'change' their way of thinking and acting.

"Laws must not fetter human life; but yield to it; they must change as the needs and capacities of the people change." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right') Any time a socialist/Marxist says "the people" they mean their "self."

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

"Lawfulness without law." (Immanuel Kant, Critique of Judgment) Where the law of the flesh, i.e., "lust" rules over and therefore against the law of God, i.e., the father's/Father's authority.

"To enjoy the present reconciles us to the actual." (Karl Marx, Critique of Hegel's 'Philosophy of Right') In other words: "Lust reconciles man to the world." Laws which get in the way of, i.e., which inhibit or block (prevent) "lust," i.e., "human nature" must therefore be negated, making the person struggling after pleasure, i.e., "lust" the victim when being punished for breaking laws which stand in his way, i.e., which go against his nature.

When "feelings," i.e., "lust," i.e., dialogue, i.e., "self interest," i.e., opinion becomes the foundation from which right and wrong behavior is determined the child becomes the victim when the father/Father rules, i.e., when the father/Father insists upon the child humbling, denying, dying to, controlling, disciplining, capitulating his "self" in order (as in "old" world order) to do right and not wrong according to the father's/Father's established commands, rules, facts, and truth. By making "feelings" the basis of right and wrong, "feeling" good (only God is good), i.e., making the person feel like God becomes "good" and hurting their "feelings," i.e., making them feel like they are subject to God becomes wrong, the child's carnal nature usurps (negates) the father's/Father's authority, making society subject to the child's carnal nature, i.e., "lust," making the father's/Father's authority, i.e., doing right and not wrong according to established commands, rules, facts, and truth the cause of neurosis (having 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) when doing wrong, disobeying, sinning, i.e., when "lusting" after the carnal pleasures of the 'moment' that the world, i.e., the current situation and/or people are stimulating "feels" good, i.e., "seems right."

"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)

"Experience ["lust"] is, for me, the highest authority." "Neither the Bible nor the prophets, neither the revelations of God can take precedence over my own direct experience ["lust"]." (ibid.)

"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)

"Once the earthly family [with children having to humble and deny their "self" in order to do their father's will] is discovered to be the secret of the Holy family [with the Son, Jesus Christ, and all following Him having to humble and deny their "self" in order to do His Heavenly Father's will], the former [the earthly father's authority system, with children having to trust in (have faith in) and obey the father (their parents)] must then itself be destroyed [vernichtet, i.e., annihilated, i.e., negated] in theory and in practice [must be negated in the children's personal thoughts and social actions—resulting in their no longer "fellowshipping" with one another based upon the father's/Father's (their parents/God's) commands, rules, facts, and truth but, through dialogue, "building relationship" with one another based upon their common carnal desires, i.e., "self interests," i.e., "lusts" of the 'moment' instead, turning "Oughtiness" into a world that "Is" made in their image (imagination)]." (Karl Marx, Feuerbach Thesis #4)

"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
