Man is not satisfied with how God has created Him and so man will recreate himself according to his own divine fiat word to be cast in a physical image that is consistent with his autonomous vision. The act of unnecessary cosmetic surgery, piercing, tattooing, and now the new piercing rage called corsetting are acts of defiance against being defined by God in our very physical appearance. It is a form of alienism in as much as the pursuit of body modifications indicates a alienation that exists between the person and their own physical appearance.

What modern man is doing to himself in his desire to remake himself physically is akin what happens when one enters into the military. Upon entry into the military the individual is stripped of all identifying marks: jewelry, individual clothing, distinctive scents, hair- facial & head, while covering visible tattoos in order to ‘reformat the individual hard-drive’. The recruit receives standardized grooming and uniform with distinctive ‘writing’ (patches & ensignia) and ‘action codes’ (UCMJ, General Orders etc.) bearing on all of life, which recreate the individual and identify him/her as a soldier/sailor. Now with that as a backdrop one should evaluate the contemporary ‘reformatting of youth’s hard-drives’ that we are seeing in the tattoo / piercing culture and the subsequent impact of this upon our youth’s behavior. Tattoos and piercings (as well as dress) have received renewed emphasis, and have historically been religiously derived.

Like the actions of the military the actions of the tattoo / piercing culture has the goal of stripping and remaking the individual according to a proscribed worldview. The individual hard drive is being reformatted with the goal of creating the new Alienist man.

Now further all this that piercing in the Scripture was, for men, a sign of submission. Rushdoony teaches in his lecture on “Dependence” that when piercing showed up in the West again it was initially done by Pirates and communicated that the one pierced was a subordinate in a homosexual relationship. Tattoos in the ancient world (and in biblical culture) were a sign either of slavery or allegiance to a pagan god. Tattooing is condemned in the Pentateuch.

It is my conclusion then that the tattooing – piercing phenomenon that we are finding in our current culture is merely the outward expression of a slave people’s inward beliefs. Because we have become slaves in our thinking, we are marking ourselves as slaves, all the while telling ourselves that this remaking of our physical appearance is the very essence of freedom. Remember, in an upside down world, slavery is freedom and freedom is slavery.

Interestingly enough, as recently as the 1950’s in America ear piercing was not something nice girls did, and girls being tattooed was virtually unheard.

Behold The Psychological Bedrock of Cultural Marxism

‘…the next step in personal evolution is a transcendence of both masculinity and femininity to general humanness.’

Abraham Maslow’s contribution to the agenda of Alienism is seen in the quote above. By aiming at a “post-gender” reality Maslow, in harmony with all theo-psychological Alienism, seeks to place both men and women in the same egalitarian psychic ‘iron-cage,’ that disallows traditional distinctions — whether ethnic, gender, religious or familial — as a matter of course.

Cultural Marxism is characterized by its pursuit of Maslow’s “general humanness.” This “general humanness” is defined within the worldview of and according to the standards of Alienism. This Alienist “general humanness” is a washed out, faded out, lowest common denominator humanness, which produces a new Alienist “man” which is unaffected by the sex organs it is born with and so is hermaphroditic in its thinking, attitude and disposition. This new Alienist “man” is also universalistic in its despising of home, place, and people. The new Alienist “man” loves no home, place and people, because it claims to love all homes, places, and peoples. Finally the new Alienist “man” is Unitarian in its faith. Like Prince Charles’ desire to be the “Defenders of the faiths” the new Alienist “man,” embraces all faiths as equally valid and so ultimately the same.

And so what Maslow gives us, with his theo-psychological leaven, in concert with the movement of all of Cultural Marxism is not only a “post-gender” reality but rather a “post-reality” reality. In this reality there is no distinct gender because all gender has been transcended and so is the same. In this reality there is no distinct home, place and people because all homes, places, and peoples have been transcended and so are the same. In this reality there is no distinct faith because all faiths have been transcended and so are the same.

Who would have thought John Lenon and Abraham Maslow could have so much in common?

Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too

The West is still marginally structured by the hegemonic values of Christianity. The work of the Cultural Marxists has been to attack that structure at its foundation in every sector of the West’s Social order. The Alienists understand that in order for the remnants of Christendom to be extinguished what must happen is a continued re-ordering along egalitarian, anti-property, and anti-family lines of thought. As such what is embraced by the shock troops of the cultural Marxists — those battalions of feminists, sexual perverts, and disaffected minorities who have embraced the tenets of Alienism — is continual social revolution committed to the destruction of distinctions, family integrity, and property ownership. Each day, and every day in the West is now “Bastille day.” Each day and every day Alienists — both of the epistemologically self conscious variety and of the “useful idiots” variety — are driven by the cultural Marxist motto of, “We will not be satisfied until the last King is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.” All remnants of Christian social order must be pulled down and as such all of life, from the marriage bed to the work place, from the playground to the Corporate office, from the Sanctuary to the Labor Union, and from the Courtroom to the Corner Convenient Store is open season for the political gamesmanship of Alienism political correctness. All of life is political.

The struggle is hegemonic — a clash of an ascending Cultural Marxist Worldview that is totalistic against a descending Christian Worldview that once was totalistic. Because the culture war that ensues is totalistic we find concepts like like “Institutional racism,” “the Battle of the Sexes,” “Hiring Quotas,” and “Global Warming.” These are all concepts that are devoted to the elimination of the residual social order values of Hegemonic Christianity.
