It is impossible for a snake to grow without losing its skin. A snake getting rid of its skin is doing the hardest work of its life. If it doesn’t get rid of its skin, it will die of suffocation.
Catholic Fundamentalism suggests that we give up the constraining lies that cause intellectual suffocation. The world has woven webs around our minds and souls. Those confining webs keep us away from God and His teaching. Confusion, anger, and bitterness follow.
As with the snake, freedom is our reward for shedding our intellectual constraints. As we shed those chains, the joy lets us begin to see why He said, “You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.” Bliss follows.
We understand why children have, in the last two generations, developed a reluctance to learn. Education has been perverted by the lost souls. Education is now used to undermine the reality that God made the world and all that’s in it.
Public education has become unnatural to the part of our nature which has a basic affinity for God. Seeing that their teachers and the subjects they teach have been perverted to do the Devil’s work, children, especially the brighter ones, instinctively view them with suspicion.
In their innocence, children sense the conflict between being pro-God and pro-life and sciences that undermine life and its relationship with their Creator.
People who “shed their skins” cast off the shackles of perverted science. We reject disgusting pills that kill unborn babies; new medications that purport to cure but actually addict gullible people to endless cash drains; alarmists worried about every catastrophe; and those who pervert the study of statistics to justify each new fear. In freedom, we turn back to our loving God.
Public education is always one of Babylon’s pawns. Escape its confining orthodoxy. Shedding our skin. Freeing our mind. Saving our soul.
