Hansel & Gretel

My family and I were just watching this movie when, a sudden insight, into the two presuppositions underlying the gist of the movie, hit me.

The presuppositions at work is that evil arises out of nature, and that goodness is generated in urban areas, and its instrumentation is human beings.

This characterization is very old, probably Judeo in origin. God is holy and good and is found in heaven, transcendent from and apart of Satan and evil witches immersed in or close to nature.

God is good, in heaven, above and apart from nature. Humans have the potential to be good if they live godly, holy lives self-realizing in urban settings far from nature.

Wicked humans celebrated the beast at work in each of them, reinforcing wicked tendencies by being nature lovers and haters of humans and their technocratic civilization. Wicked humans remain wicked by acting subservient towards nature, so they roam in cliques. They lead nonindividuator lives in society collectivized and are hierarchized as institutional belongers.

Some witches are good, but most are wicked, a salute to Satan as the Master of this world. If God ruled this world, most witches would be white witches.

Notice that black witches are women, an allusion to women being a bit more wicked than men just by loving, submitting to and being a bit more groupist than men.

In light of this moral and spiritual characterization of good and evil and their sources, we realize that hard-core conservatives are anti-environmentalism and pro-development of nature. Humans are God's agents, so as good stewards of nature, they are to develop and control nature as its rulers, not surrendering to become Nature's subjects or servants.

Liberals worship nature and hate humans and their artificial, accompanying society. Liberals want no capitalism, a rigidly stratified society of a few rich and all poor, with all moving in groups, all wards of a totalitarian state, all nonindividuating and all existing as small souls ruled by higher-ups in big institutions. No wonder Liberalism yields nothing but death and suffering.
