The Biblical Subversion
May 22, 2023 Season 2 Episode 5

George and Virgil are back on their project of subverting the twin neo-paganism of the new right and the postmodern left. These two take a lot of pride in themselves subverting "traditional morals." For the new right, it's Nietzschean revaluation of all values and ceasing to feel sorry for the "refuse" of humanity. For the postmodern left, it's subverting traditional power structures, all of which are oppressive.

But the truth is, both of these would-be subversions are aping the one permanent subversion, which is the subversion of the sacrificial mechanism, or the scapegoating mindset brought about by the Old and New Testaments. 

Listen to this episode to hear it explained how one can tell good subversion from bad, and how and why paganism, both old and new, is beautiful lies hiding an ugly truth, while the Bible is the beautiful truth revealing the ugly lies, which we still try not to see.
