an Ideal |
On many levels these words will remain an idea, or an ideal unattainable by believers, the mundane and those committed to their lot in life. The society we are living in has not, and is unable to embrace, or embody this. The Christian Bible in the last book of Proverbs speaks the same teachings, and is the identical sentiment of my Native culture, but it has always been lost upon the dominant culture.
I know the Apostle Paul had two missions: to spread the Gospel of Christ, and the other more nefarious was to eradicate the Goddess from minds, hearts and traditional practice. The Founding Fathers of the United States examined and studied the Great Law of the Iroquois Confederacy, and gagged on the central element that balanced and made sense to the organizational genius of their laws.
What was it?
I'll tell you.
It was the power of the women to elect leaders, and decided if the nations went to war or not. We haven't ventured far from these notions. These fears dictate behavior, and inform custom and chastise people who look around and discover the Goddess.
