The death cult of expressive individualism may 10th 2021.

Introduction. The battle of our time is the war between those who demand their right to be creators.

Over against those who seek to defend their right to be creatures.

Everything comes down to that simple division. The two ways.

A corollary of the first position that we must be untrammeled creators, that we must be as gods, that we must ascend the sides of the North,

is that the raw material of the cosmos, whatever it is, must be assumed to be infinitely plastic.

The process of getting to that point is initially exhilarating, especially when it comes to loosening the requirements of our sexual behavior,

but the process, once begun, is not so easily stopped.

Before long, the exhilaration is replaced by terror, as we find ourselves standing on the lip of an abyss.

But a corollary of the second position is that Darwin was wrong about everything, entirely and utterly and completely wrong.

God, out of the good counsel of his will, spoke the authoritative word, and where before there had been nothing, there was now heaven and earth.

Not the detritus of some big explosion, but rather an enormous jewel cut by infinite wisdom and now on display.

When he was done at the end of the creation week, this world was well stocked with all creatures great and small.

At the apex of this creation, he placed mankind, his own image, male and female, Genesis 127.

When he gave us the cultural mandate in the words following, Genesis 128 and following, he granted us the dignity of being sub-creators with the granted authority to rearrange the materials he supplied to us,

but only with the proviso that we constantly remember that he was the only true creator.

Because our first parents disobeyed the instructions given to them, our race fell into sin.

At the instigation of the devil, we became children of the devil, but God, in his infinite grace, reserved for himself a seed, fallen like the rest but preserved by grace.

God promised that a time would come when the woman would have her revenge, and the seed of the woman would crush the serpent's head, and the long war would be finally one, Genesis 3-15.

And so it is that the antithesis was established. This is the foundational antithesis, and the story of our battles with one another runs down through the entire course of history.

There are those of us who want to be creators, and there are those of us who want to be creatures, secular society.
