When Marxist theory was proven wrong after WWI, and the working class did not revolt and launch a communist revolution, Marxist theorists decided that for a communist revolution to succeed, the structure of Western democracy and capitalism must be destroyed. Communist party activists set their sights on creating a culture war that would rip apart society from within.
In 1918, Georg Lukács became minister of culture in Bolshevik Hungary. During this time, Lukács realized that if the family unit and sexual morals were eroded, society could be broken down. Lukács implemented a policy he titled “cultural terrorism,” which focused on these two objectives. A major part of the policy was to target children’s minds through lectures that encouraged them to deride and reject Christian ethics.
In 1934 the Frankfurt school, as it became known, came to Columbia University in America and began publishing material that criticized the foundations of Western culture, including family, democracy, freedom of speech, and many others. The writings focused on challenging Americans’ views on gender and sexual ethics and called them prejudiced. Cultural Marxism was born.
In 1973 the American Psychiatric Association voted to remove homosexuality from its Diagnostic Statistical Manual (DSM). The World Health Organization (WHO) did not remove homosexuality from its ICD classification until 1992. Today, the standard of psychotherapy in the U.S. and Europe is gay affirmative psychotherapy, which encourages gay people to accept their sexual orientation.
In 1978 the North American Man/Boy Love Association was formed. According to their website:
NAMBLA’s goal is to end the extreme oppression of men and boys in mutually consensual relationships by:
- building understanding and support for such relationships;
- educating the general public on the benevolent nature of man/boy love;
- cooperating with lesbian, gay, feminist, and other liberation movements;
- supporting the liberation of persons of all ages from sexual prejudice and oppression.
Today many colleges and Universities teach that gender is a social construct and not inherently biological or God-given. Children experiencing gender dysphoria are being given hormones and other chemical therapies to help them transition by pausing puberty.
University of Texas at Austin professor Thomas Hubbard writes that that “contemporary American legislation premised on children’s incapacity to ‘consent’ to sexual relations stems from outmoded gender constructions and ideological preoccupations of the late Victorian and Progressive Era.” Hubbard argues that it should be legal for grown men to have sex with children. He is not alone, a 2014 editorial in the New York Times suggested that pedophilia is not a crime but rather a disorder.
The sexualization of children has been a steady and incremental over these past decades since the advent of Cultural Marxism. Recently Netflix premiered a new series called “Cuties” which blatantly sexualizes young girls.
While many have predicted the decline, they are primarily told that they are neurotic and overly puritanical. When same-sex marriage became legal, advocates claimed it is all about love and that no one was trying to take anyone’s rights away. That turned out to not be true
It has become painfully obvious where we are headed as a society, and this NetFlix premiere showed us the next level of conquest the cultural Marists have in mind. Christians have always understood that sex is a sacred gift and about much more than love. Christian doctrine, based on the creator’s natural law teaches that every genital act must be within the framework of marriage. Those who violate His laws not only offend the divine Majesty but degrade themselves and humanity.
Fifty years ago Pope Paul VI wrote an encyclical entitled Humanae Vitae. The Pope’s writing warned against the consequences of artificial contraception. Predicting that it would lead to the objectification of women unfaithfulness in marriage and overall disrespect for human life.
As recently as 1930, every mainline Protestant church vigorously condemned those sexual behaviors that they considered to be damaging to society and a danger to the souls of individuals. These acts included divorce, artificial contraception, abortion, euthanasia, fornication, adultery, the use of pornography, and homosexual behavior. The Roman Catholic Church is the only remaining major religious entity that holds fast to its prohibitions on these behaviors.
