To: NYer

An impressive list in the judgment of the secular world.

Consequently, they inevitably taught that the human person:

• is not in the image of God because God does not exist,

• comes from chaos and shall return to chaos,

• is the product of purposeless processes,

• is defined by Power, not Love,

• is either an Oppressor or a Victim,

• is an illusion disguising a fathomless abyss of conflicted impulses and irrational desires,

• must kick down the ladder of history and biology by which he climbed and create himself,

• cannot be hobbled by love, pity and a slave morality that cringes before God,

• improves himself through competition, enmity and strife as he destroys the weak,

• should seek pleasure in this world, because this is all there is,

• must defeat and destroy anything standing in the way of the quest for pleasure and power, and

• is arrogant for thinking himself “made in God’s image” and superior to other creatures.
