Download or read book Their Angry Creed written by Herbert Purdy and published by lps publishing. This book was released on 2016-07-04 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forty-five years after women's liberationists first laid down their challenge, chanting 'Women demand equality!' and 'I'm a second-class citizen', their narratives are now so universally accepted that few people dare speak truth to the power in the land that feminism has undoubtedly become. However, this book does just that. Opening with a startling revelation in 2014 by Mallory Millett, sister of Kate Millett - a mentally-ill Marxist apologist, and probably the prime mover in the women's liberation movement around 1970 - Their Angry Creed is a detailed exposé of what she and her co-conspirators were planning from the start. The author shows how these activists influenced a generation of women - many of whom are now in prominent and powerful positions - to seek a seismic shift in the power balance between women and men by dividing society along the fault line of gender. Feminism has never been about equality for women. It is cultural Marxism, whose principles uphold matriarchy - the social superiority of women - which is to be achieved through the destruction of marriage, the re-engineering of the family, moving women en masse out of the home and into the workforce, and the disruption of society as we know it. Describing how these activists have already secured unreasonable and unfair privilege for women and girls, he points to the demonisation of manhood, men's effective social emasculation, the invasion of men's social spaces to the point of harassment, and the relentless excision of fathers from families. He ends by warning of a coming backlash from men.

This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forty-five years after women's liberationists first laid down their challenge, chanting 'Women demand equality!' and 'I'm a second-class citizen', their narratives are now so universally accepted that few people dare speak truth to the power in the land that feminism has undoubtedly become. However, this book does just that. Opening with a startling revelation in 2014 by Mallory Millett, sister of Kate Millett - a mentally-ill Marxist apologist, and probably the prime mover in the women's liberation movement around 1970 - Their Angry Creed is a detailed expose of the gender class war they initiated in those days. Showing how these activists influenced a generation of baby-boom women - many of whom are now in prominent and powerful positions - to seek a seismic shift in the power balance between women and men, the author explains how they have been spectacularly successful in conforming Western democracies to their Marxist worldview, destabilising their societies in the process, by dividing them along the fault line of gender. And, like in the dystopian communist countries Marxists created, feminists are positioning themselves to become a powerful ruling elite that runs society for its own benefit, building a gigantic gravy train upon which only its members have a ticket. Feminism has never been about equality for women, it has no interest in the liberal Enlightenment ideals of equality of opportunity based on merit and the just distribution of social benefit. Feminism is cultural Marxism. It seeks a communist-utopian definition of equality qua sameness: parity disconnected from achievement through merit and ability; and divorced from skills and attributes. For examples of this in action, we need only look at the power-hungry women who are using this false form of equality to gain equal representation in the boardroom, on no other merit than that they are a female: and in politics, where the British Labour Party's shameless pursuit of positive discrimination through all-women prospective parliamentary candidate short lists amounts to flagrant flouting of the democratic process. We see it in the appointment of women bishops in the church of England, and in the vast numbers of women who are taking over command of the police and the armed forces, where feminists are now even demanding that women take up combat roles. And all this is at the expense of the majority of ordinary women who are struggling to meet a myriad of conflicting pressures, and satisfying none. Feminists, whose principal aim is to overturn patriarchy, seek to replace it with a Marxist matriarchy - the social superiority of women - which they are achieving through the destruction of 'bourgeois' marriage, moving mothers of very young children into the workforce en masse and encouraging them to leave their children's early-years care to strangers who are effectively being subsidised by the state; and reengineering the family as the principal building block of society to exclude fathers who are the embodiment of patriarchy. Warning that the feminist elite's endgame is the final overturning of men's social power, and that we are already well on the way to seeing this come about, the author warns of a coming backlash from men."

Download or read book The Presbyterian Creed written by S. Donald Fortson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-02-16 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Presbyterian creed up until the second half of the twentieth century has been the confessional tradition of the Westminster Assembly (1643-48). Presbyterians in America adopted the Westminster Confession and Catechisms in 1729 through a compromise measure that produced ongoing debate for the next hundred years. Differences over the meaning of confessional subscription were a continuing cause of the Presbyterian schisms of 1741 and 1837. The Presbyterian Creed is a study of the factors that led to the ninteenth-century Old School/New School schism and the Presbyterian reunions of 1864 and 1870. In these reunions, American Presbyterians finally reached consensus on the meaning of confessional subscription that had previously been so elusive.

Book The Fury of God

  • Author : Jeremy J. Lundmark
  • Publisher : WestBow Press
  • Release : 2014-05-27
  • ISBN : 1490836330
  • Pages : 248 pages

Download or read book The Fury of God written by Jeremy J. Lundmark and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-05-27 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is God loving? The Bible says that God is love; however, it also portrays a God that floods the earth, takes the lives of the firstborn in Egypt, and lashes out time and again in His fury. How can a God of love be synonymous with the God of fury displayed in the Old Testament? Are we fools? The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction (Pro 1:7). Twice in the Proverbs were told that the beginning of knowledge and wisdom is the fear of the Lord. Is it possible that we have become altogether ignorant simply because weve tossed out the Bibles basic teaching on Gods fury? The Fury of God penetrates the paradox and shows that we cannot truly understand Gods love until we fully understand His fury. If believers today are truly abiding in Gods Word, they will come face-to-face with the fury of God, and its truth will bring satisfaction to their souls. Gods people must know the truth. They longingly desire it. The truth is that our God is a consuming fire. He is a jealous God. He is a holy God. He is an unchanging God. He is a triune God. Our God is a God of fury. It is that God, the God of the Scriptures, whom I hope to resurrect in the hearts and minds of His people with this book.

Book Caught in the Crossfire

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in a Northern town, where right-wingers are determined to stir up hatred and racial prejudice, CAUGHT IN THE CROSSFIRE is about six teenagers whose lives are woven together by a series of shocking and tragic events. A British Muslim brother and sister, two Irish brothers who take different sides, and two lads out looking for trouble: all of them get caught in the crossfire. Inspired by the Oldham riots and the events of September 11th, this is a book that needed to be written. It is a chilling account of what is happening in Britain today, but as always Alan Gibbons writes with humour and understanding and is utterly on the wavelength of his many readers.

Book Freedom s Progress

    Book Details:
  • Author : Gerard Casey
  • Publisher : Andrews UK Limited
  • Release : 2021-10-04
  • ISBN : 1845409604
  • Pages : 969 pages

Download or read book Freedom s Progress written by Gerard Casey and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2021-10-04 with total page 969 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Freedom's Progress?, Gerard Casey argues that the progress of freedom has largely consisted in an intermittent and imperfect transition from tribalism to individualism, from the primacy of the collective to the fragile centrality of the individual person and of freedom. Such a transition is, he argues, neither automatic nor complete, nor are relapses to tribalism impossible. The reason for the fragility of freedom is simple: the importance of individual freedom is simply not obvious to everyone. Most people want security in this world, not liberty. 'Libertarians,' writes Max Eastman, 'used to tell us that "the love of freedom is the strongest of political motives," but recent events have taught us the extravagance of this opinion. The "herd-instinct" and the yearning for paternal authority are often as strong. Indeed the tendency of men to gang up under a leader and submit to his will is of all political traits the best attested by history.' The charm of the collective exercises a perennial magnetic attraction for the human spirit. In the 20th century, Fascism, Bolshevism and National Socialism were, Casey argues, each of them a return to tribalism in one form or another and many aspects of our current Western welfare states continue to embody tribalist impulses. Thinkers you would expect to feature in a history of political thought feature in this book - Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, Locke, Mill and Marx - but you will also find thinkers treated in Freedom's Progress? who don't usually show up in standard accounts - Johannes Althusius, Immanuel Kant, William Godwin, Max Stirner, Joseph Proudhon, Mikhail Bakunin, Pyotr Kropotkin, Josiah Warren, Benjamin Tucker and Auberon Herbert. Freedom's Progress? also contains discussions of the broader social and cultural contexts in which politics takes its place, with chapters on slavery, Christianity, the universities, cities, Feudalism, law, kingship, the Reformation, the English Revolution and what Casey calls Twentieth Century Tribalisms - Bolshevism, Fascism and National Socialism and an extensive chapter on human prehistory.

Book Quiet Pictures

    Book Details:
  • Author : Sarah Artt
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing USA
  • Release : 2024-04-18
  • ISBN : 1501347225
  • Pages : 237 pages

Download or read book Quiet Pictures written by Sarah Artt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2024-04-18 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quiet Pictures approaches the films of Joanna Hogg, Lynne Ramsay, Céline Sciamma, and Lucile Hadžhalilovicthrough the lens of silence as a motif and texture. This book takes up the question of different uses of silence in the work of these directors and how this creates a space for foregrounding innovative practices that establish new ways of looking, staring, and gazing. Sarah Artt discusses how the deliberate deployment of silence creates space for the formation of reciprocal gazes that counteract the typically gendered and binary ways in which women and femme-presenting people tend to be portrayed on screen. Quiet Pictures draws on the political legacy of feminist film theory to explore and conceptualise what it means to not just look back, but to share the gaze. This book discusses several films, including: Unrelated (Hogg, 2007), Archipelago (Hogg, 2010), Exhibition (Hogg, 2013), The Souvenir Part I and II (Hogg, 2019 and 2021), Morvern Callar (Ramsay, 2002), We Need to Talk About Kevin (Ramsay, 2011), Innocence (Hadžhalilovic 2004), Evolution (Hadžhalilovic 2015), Waterlilies/Naissance des Pieuvres (Sciamma, 2007), Tomboy (Sciamma, 2011), Girlhood/Bande des Filles (Sciamma, 2014), Portrait of a Lady on Fire/Portrait d'une jeune fille en feu (Sciamma, 2019), and Petite Maman/Little Mother (Sciamma, 2021).

Book Super Bitches and Action Babes

Download or read book Super Bitches and Action Babes written by Rikke Schubart and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-08-23 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With actress Pam Grier's breakthrough in Coffy and Foxy Brown, women entered action, science fiction, war, westerns and martial arts films--genres that had previously been considered the domain of male protagonists. This ground-breaking cinema, however, was--and still is--viewed with ambivalence. While women were cast in new and exciting roles, they did not always arrive with their femininity intact, often functioning both as a sexualized spectacle and as a new female hero rather than female character. This volume contains an in-depth critical analysis and study of the female hero in popular film from 1970 to 2006. It examines five female archetypes: the dominatrix, the Amazon, the daughter, the mother and the rape-avenger. The entrance of the female hero into films written by, produced by and made for men is viewed through the lens of feminism and post-feminism arguments. Analyzed works include films with actors Michelle Yeoh and Meiko Kaji, the Alien films, the Lara Croft franchise, Charlie's Angels, and television productions such as Xena: Warrior Princess and Alias.

Book After  MeToo

  • ISBN : 1788360338
  • Pages : 308 pages

Download or read book After MeToo written by Gerard Casey and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2020-04-02 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In After #MeToo, Gerard Casey provides a critical assessment of the #MeToo movement, situating it in the context of the radical feminism of which it is just the latest manifestation. Apart from its legitimating an indiscriminate attack on men and masculinity, Casey argues that the #MeToo movement has exposed a conceptual fault-line in radical feminist anthropology. Are women fully-developed moral agents, able to exercise moral choice and to take responsibility for what they do; or are women elements of a collective made up of the victims of sexual crimes, whose suffering is not just that of any one individual woman but of the group as a whole? Casey's analysis of the #MeToo movement is prefaced by a brief typology of forms of feminism and by an account of the supposedly universal oppression of women by a malign patriarchy. He argues that if there is such a thing as the patriarchy, it is singularly and spectacularly ineffectual in its operation inasmuch as women, on the whole, are not only not oppressed in comparison to men but are rather the beneficiaries of legal and social privileges. After #MeToo concludes with a consideration of the changing legal definitions of rape. Once understood to be essentially a crime of violence, rape has now come to be regarded as a violation of personal autonomy. In common law systems, a certain conception of consent is now central to the definition of rape, a conception that, Casey argues, is unworkable, at once infantilising women and, at the same time, potentially criminalising every sexual encounter in which a man is involved.
