Message: Entry: "Islamophobia" and "Anti-Fascist" Frauds Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/islamophobia_and_anti_fascist_frauds#1520 Post contents: MSS- In "Why Homosexuals Want What Marriage Has Become" ( http://www.profam.org/pub/fia/fia_1804.htm ) the author points to the 60's as a main problem, (which ties in well with the discussion last week about Mandolyna's article "Freedom is for Fools"). You lay blame at the feet of Marcuse. I need to study up on Marcuse and the Frankfort School - any suggested readings? My understanding of the decline of the family has been from an agrarian perspective, from reading authors like Wendell Berry and Hugh Nibley. This perspective is that the agrarian ethos centered on the traditional patriarchal family, where responsibilities and roles intertwined and overlapped, but were distinct. Long before Industrialism took its toll, Imperialism with its merchant trade and consumerism laid the groundwork for cutting the family free from its place in the daily functions of society. All three of these attacks on the family (consumerism, utopian scheming, the '60s) seem to flow relentlessly. Looks like all they need is the official stamp of law to be done. Sent at: 2008 05 16
