Download or read book The Anti Mary Exposed written by Carrie Gress and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Demonic Influence on Women Today In the late '60s, a small group of elite American women convinced an overwhelming majority of the country that destroying the most fundamental of relationships-that of mother and child-was necessary for women to have productive and happy lives. From the spoiling of this relationship followed the decay of the entire family, and almost overnight, our once pro-life culture became pro-lifestyle, embracing everything that felt good. Sixty million abortions later, women aren't showing signs of health, happiness, and fulfillment. Increased numbers of divorce, depression, anxiety, sexually transmitted disease, and drug abuse all point to the reality that women aren't happier, just more medicated. Huge cultural shifts led to a rethinking of womanhood, but could there be more behind it than just culture, politics, and rhetoric? Building off the scriptural foundations of the anti-Christ, Carrie Gress makes an in-depth investigation into the idea of an anti-Mary-as a spirit, not an individual-that has plagued the West since the '60s. Misleading generations of women, this anti-Marian spirit has led to the toxic femininity that has destroyed the lives of countless men, women, and children. Also in The Anti-Mary Exposed: How radical feminism is connected to the errors of Russia, spoken of by Our Lady of Fatima. The involvement and influence of the goddess movement and the occult. The influence of "female" demons, such as Lilith and Jezebel. The repulsive underbelly of radical feminism's chief architects. A look at the matriarchy, a cabal of elite women committed to abortion, who control the thinking of most women through media, politics, Hollywood, fashion, and universities.

Book excerpt: The Fates follows societys search for immortality. The exploration of what each of us would sacrifice if it meant that we could live forever. Changing societal values and reducing the importance of community has resulted in a society that continues to put the needs of the individual first. The Fates explores a society made up of those that put their needs ahead of all others versus those that believe the spiritual self is the destiny of all humans. The conflict in a society and each individual that devalues the basic human characteristics that make each of us unique manifests itself in some devastating outcomes. Each day we are faced with decisions of what each of us value and what each of us will fight for. The youth of today are influenced by increasingly uncontrolled and self-centered ideas about how they should live. The path is being set in our world where through media, we are changing culture. The Fates at one time may have seemed like science fiction; however, with our increasing knowledge of genetics and our belief that immortality can only be obtained through science rather than spiritually or through the legacies we create to make our world a better place for future generations.
