“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood,” (although it’s flesh and blood villains arrayed against us at this time) “but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12

Kill the culture, and the culture will kill you right back.

One of the best ways to go about murdering your culture is to start with the children. Get their minds good and warped and anything can happen.

Italy has surged ahead in the race to extinction, coming up with compulsory cross-dressing days for kids in public schools. Italian parents are organizing against it. Don’t they know that the only meaningful protest against the public schools is to pull their children out of them?

Don’t ask me to explain why libs and humanists are always so eager to see little boys in dresses. But the official explanation for this wee experiment in social engineering is to erase “gender stereotypes.” Uh… doesn’t the everyday experience of life accomplish that? Is “gender stereotyping” so critical a problem that it must be solved by playing God with the psyches of young children?

Oh, but that’s Italy! It’ll never happen here!

Just wait.

Meanwhile, whatever portion of a child’s mind the educators don’t get around to warping, our own local despots take aim at.

Recently an 11-year-old boy in Florida came home from school to find his folks hadn’t gotten home yet. As it turned out, they were held up by bad weather and a traffic jam. So he harmlessly filled the time shooting baskets in his own yard. This innocent pastime plunged the whole family into a world of hurt.

There is a law in his town against children engaging in unsupervised play outdoors, an activity which used to be called “childhood.” A neighborhood busybody called the cops. They may not be much for coming down on drug dealers, knockout games, arson, rape, riots, or murder; but, boy, are they something when they get a chance to bust unsupervised play! The parents were arrested, strip-searched—pure humiliation, that—and jailed, and the boy was taken from his family for a month until a relatively sane judge ordered him back home.

By all means, if you want to kill the culture, cut the children off from childhood. Unsupervised play teaches all kinds of lessons deemed subversive by our ruling class and its mob of “scientific” experts—decision-making, independent thought, independent action, problem-solving, and amicable compromise. It undermines their efforts to turn children into docile cattle who sit around waiting for some adult to tell them what to do. It is an obstacle to the achievement of the humanist utopia.

And at the same time, they relentlessly preach to the children that they are little tin gods who can “choose” even their gender, engage in any conceivable form of sex without being “judged” for it, disobey their parents and sneer at the teachings of religion—as long as they jump when the rulers say jump, and never even think a thought disapproved of by the reigning experts.

If that doesn’t make you as crazy as a bedbug, what will?

Secular conservatives, country club Republicans, libertarians, and bent churchmen all want to go along with lib’rals and jettison those pesky social and culture war issues—to proclaim, in fact, their complete, abject surrender to the social engineering schemes of puffed-up little antichrists. They tell themselves that they can bend, fold, spindle and mutilate the culture any way they please, and everything will turn out hunky-dory as long as there’s a tax cut somewhere in the mix.

But when this confused generation of children grows up into a voting public of amoral zombies completely dependent on the government to make all their decisions for them, with an acquired gift for being herded like cattle, buttressed by colossal ignorance and selfish apathy, there will be no room in this utopia for the secular conservatives who conserved nothing, the libertarians who defended nothing, and the bent churchmen who preached nothing.

But the country club Republicans, who have made their peace with liberals—well, they’ll come out of it okay, with their wallets intact.

What a cold comfort there is in that!
