NOW THAT WE'VE ESTABLISHED that verily capitalism and christianity are the twin towers of american cultural determination, and that they conflict, in terms of attitudes towards sex, money, and competition, among other things; we might wish to further our inquiry by trying to find out whether this conflict, which obviously does not preclude the joining in america of two ostensibly opposing forces, helps or hinders american society.
In america, the people who believe most strongly in christianity tend to believe most strongly in capitalism.
The effect of capitalism on american sexual behavior is that capitalism influences americans, entices americans, or tries to, into having as great a desire for sex as possible. A cursory glance at any television channel quickly reveals this. Television in america is the means by which the corporate oligarchy seeks to shock, seduce, sadate the american people into nothing less than complete compliance with the corporate oligarchy.
The bad news is that they have succeeded, long since, and there is no sense in denying it. We americans are, overwhelmingly, the property of our corporate masters. Simply consider to whom you owe money, and under what terms.
The thing to do , of course, is to refuse to pay for television, satellite or cable - then we'd end up getting it for free, and be back where we started, sedated - but how many americans are willing to do it (go without television)?
The american corporate marketing advertising media entertainment comples sells violenc and sex to the american people like an opiate, and we lap it up like puppy dogs. Meanwhile, christianity in america continues the insanity of telling its adherents that ses under nearly al lcircumstances is a sin, and so, what do people do? They practice their in strictest secrecy, creating a culture of guilt, retribution, and violence.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, capitalism is selling sex like a street drug, an irrestiable one, don't forget... wev'e gotten ourselves into quite a mess, haven't we..
