I read Richard Fernandez’s article about a new book – The Fiery Angel by Michael Walsh – with intrigue. What stuck with me most, initially anyway, was the following:
“Walsh’s goal is to demonstrate that culture — religion, the arts, language itself — are the core libraries of civilization built in a stack one upon the other. His thesis is that culture stores and slowly modifies a civilization’s foundational libraries — its attitudes toward eternity, dominant narratives and ultimate ground for hope — which eventually underpin our entire world.”
Perhaps the remainder of the article is a bit pointless to read unless one has a good grasp of what is being said here. Presented as the book author’s thesis, our so-called “foundational libraries” are what gives us our identity while guiding and directing us. Is there little doubt about that? It seems a fair conclusion that these libraries are and have been forever changing. The question might become who is really responsible for the changing foundational libraries? Doesn’t such changes also give cause to even change the reference title of “foundational libraries” to “social controlling libraries” as with these changes so also does the actual foundation deteriorate until it is gone, replaced by controlling social demands as expressed in the article?
This is just another way of describing a condition that has existed since the beginning of time – manipulation of public opinion, i.e. brainwashing.
The Global Power Structure is designed with seemingly unlimited numbers of organizations whose purpose is nothing more than to manipulate and control our minds by inundating us with mass media. Programmed to feed off this useless garbage, that at the same time is crafted to take away our ability or desire to think for ourselves, we essentially become the techno-zombies or automatons the Global Power Structure wants us to be – easily manipulated and controlled acting out the roles designed for us.
The authors want to blame this rapid destruction of our Foundational Libraries on the Left. If one identifies themselves with the Right, this only makes sense. On the flip side, and I witness it constantly, one on the Left blames the destruction of our culture on the Right. While the Left and Right are eagerly mired in the false paradigm of Left vs. Right, blinded by the fabricated hatred toward others of unlike idealisms, the real powers continue to pull all the strings that bring the Foundational Libraries to a point that best benefits them.
One might think that a Foundational Library would offer some semblance of stability, a grounding in moral behavior and existence. It’s easy to blame the Progressives for the radical destruction of the foundation, but both “sides” are to blame. Because I tend to identify more closely with a conservative perspective, certainly the Left is radically pushing to upend all things that offer stability in conservative reasoning. It works both ways and that is why there is such animosity, anger, and hatred toward “the other side.” It is designed to be so. It is part of the destruction of our Foundational Libraries, to bring us into an existence void of common moral decency, separated from the love and life of our Creator God and his simple plan of salvation -further proof that Satan rules this world and we are being manipulated by his evil powers.
And thus, the Global Power Structure is headed by Satan himself.
