Humans are sadomasochistic, and I do not mean this as an accusation. It has to do with flow and balance, the supposed duality of Creation. Sadism is the urge to have an effect. Masochism is the desire to be effected.
Tame is lukewarm. It cannot change the world. Extremes are required. “Be fruitful and multiply” is not only about reproduction. God designed humans to yearn to do things. Humans would not bother otherwise. Yes, humans do bad things because of these urges, such as rape and molest. So what? It is better they do horrible things than nothing at all.
The prudes are not men and women of God. He is all flow and they stifle flow. The prudes offend his Spirit, for his Spirit is Freedom and the prudish disapprove of freedom.
The libertines are not men and women of God. They imbalance their society, causing what works to malfunction. They ignore justice in favor of rights, thus, they offend the Spirit of God, justice itself.
Sadomasochism is clean of itself, as all things are. It can be sublimated. It can provide energy for artistic endeavors. It becomes inspiration, stirring the loins through the eyes and into the mind and heart. The soul is invigorated.
Of course great evil comes of sadomasochism. It is great because
of the sadomasochism! God knew what he was doing. In his wisdom, he made even
the horrible things interesting.
Very profound! Without the extremes humans would indeed stagnate. Why would God allow horrible things such as rape? Why not? The alternative is dust and water settling in their cult of nothing, BORING! Samson was a favorite of God and he was FAR from a church lady.
ReplyDeleteFired up for or cold against. Everything else is tepid.
DeleteWell, all these things came from God. He planted the seeds from his own imagination. It's a bit irritating when people attribute some things as from the Devil. The freaking Devil came from God.
ReplyDeleteExactly! The characters do not write the book. The AUTHOR does.
