Beyond Psychoclass
Back to the Bible as evolutionary psychohistory
There IS a generation gap -- but it is not along lines of
childrearing styles (authoritarian v. permissive). A Jungian Reversal ("enantiodromia": conversion of psychic energy driving a process into the force opposing it) has occurred throughout the psychodynamics of American group-discourse.
-meger of 'liberal' into 'conservative' positions (of consciousness) occupied by G.W. Bush, so that those who destroyed America 2000-2008 could return, now portrayed as 'the good guys". Rush Limbaugh and Karl Rove reunited over the corpse of Terry Shaivo. Revenants of Reaganism redux redux, taking charge again, Al Haig style, after the calamity.
The youthful Obamacan voices heard then
sounded "HOPE!" --the birthnote of New Testament Pauline religion. This followed "FAITH!" -- birthnote of Protestant break with Catholic Rome.
-deMause's unreconstructed liberalism winds up (by affiliation with ZION-ism) supporting CIA drone bomb terrorism on Afghanistan civilians, as "FAITH" Reversal. G.W. Bush's "Faith" =>* seques into "Israel's Right To Exist" =>*segues into 'pre-emptive' behavior. (Ex.: West Bank settlers massing in support of construction of exclusively Jewish housing on land officially disputed by Palestinians) (see NYTimes-"A Diplomatic Scramble As Mideast Talks Teeter. 9/28 A10. Bronner/Landler)
The settler's will be the "FAITH" party over there, consonant with the "FAITHERS" here, who followed GWB. This is the pre-emptive co-optation of "Soul Re-Birth" ("second birth", born again) talk.
HOPE => FAITH => (Obamacare, nannystate dependent society, guilt for lying wars, pilloring the U.S. Treasury) => (LYING) LOVE (take it if U can get it, let the devil take the hindmost). A short, but extremely important psychosemiotic progression. It begins with the Birth token, proceeds through the Re-Birth token (=> 1 + ~1 dyad), initiating the Bible's soul-talk completed in the New Testament. But because of enantiodromia, the moment of 4th Turning cannot pass from LOVE by marriage* to UNION (<=completion of merger fantasies). "MARRIAGE" ITSELF HAS BECOME THE TOKEN-VEHICLE OF THE CORRUPTED 4TH. "Same-sex marriage" reverses natures connubial relationship of fecundity. Thus, evocation and mental completion of FAITH/ / HOPE / / LOVE =>* results (by psychosemiotic processing) in: OBAMA THE BLACK/WHITE HARLEQUIN FATHER-SURROGATE. But bearing the stigma of having been anally penetrated, in unconscious group-fantasy, by Zionist Messiah Netanyahu. Therefore making AMERICA'S UNBORN children In Darkness, fathered by Darkness. The New Testament, previous Token-vehicle of the Holy, testified by belief in Christ on the Cross, through grace, appropriated by ZIONIST NATIONALISM, has today become the vehicle of the soul-force it once opposed: the pre-human snake brain. This gets named "Satanism", but that is only* one of other personified expressives of this pre-human instinctive force, though one of its most powerful.
That, again, is due to the Bible's influence and the ur-unconscious group-fantasies it constellates. Through these, "the great dragon, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who was cast down to earth" (Rev. ) links w/ Rev 20.1-3) "(the angel) laid hold of the dragon, that serpent of old, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years; and he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and put a seal on him, so that he should deceive the nations no more for a thousand years were finished. But afer that he must be released for a while." This synthesizes the snake-Satan evil incarnate motif with Genesis 3.1: "now the serpent was more cunningthan any best of the field the lord God had made. And he said to Eve..."
Great depths of amygdalan memory are Squared* here: 1. snake-brain evolution (the human neck-skull intersection 'plugs in' this genetic 'bulb' at the vertebrate's end, virtually unchanged) 2. mammalian brain evolution ('Eve', whose biological function, after sex organs evolved, was to carry to the seed of human kind to fruition in her womb). "Satan, that old serpent, the Devil tempted Eve in The Garden of Eden with an apple" is the soul-sentence resulting from synthesizing Genesis and Revelation. It* loops collective memory through these stages of evolution, as a pre-paternal drama, but 'under' it, as a further evolved Father-male totality (tacitly judging by recognition of its advancedness). This psychosemiotic function of bringing together these two dyads, Serpent/Eve / /Male God parent/Adam, is the ineradicable genius of the Bible's fantasy template.
If this evolutionary brain-evolution hypothesis holds, it is not just "fantasy". It is an historically imprinted route of neural energy transformation (like a tree-ring record in the cortex.) These two ends of The Bible, Genesis and Revelation, Squares* vast oceans of time
through this simple narrative, each time it is recalled. This can happen directly ("fighting Satan" by demented preachers); or indirectly, through symbolic associations (as in 'demonizing' political/military "enemies", Ex.: "the axis of evil".). In any case, in psychohistorical terms, these signs all cathect the Punishing Placenta -- polluting, smothering, strangling, poisoning the blood of the fetus in utero, brought back to consciousness in collective representation. "The Enemy" is always located spatially Outside the collective Womb-surround (nation, state, ethnicity, religion); never "inside", as "my-, not his" problem". However, this metaphysical psychodynanmics doesn't leave "ideal humanity" hanging there, requiring self-negation in the face of accusation of projecting personal Negativity. This is to ignore the enantiodromia.
