Post #76 "The 'Weak' Side of Creation"

Creation is the process of division. Creation divides itself, through the layers and levels of its history down to 'nothingness'. This 'nothingness' is the 'nothingness' of the abyss of precreation. Creation has beginning and end. Creation does not exist. Creation does not exist to Reality. Creation exists only to itself. In this process of division, amoeba divides down into male and female. As creation is image, it acts as image. What image perceives as Reality, image as image tries to duplicate. As image/non-reality sees itself and from itself conjures its impression of what it is not, image attempts to replay the original Reality-non-reality scenario. In this replay, the role of Reality is played by Male. In this replay, the role of creation is played by Female. As is obvious, female must be overcome by Male as reality must be assumed and consumed for image to transfer into Reality. Male thus assumes itself to be strength and must prove itself through aeons of competition, always striving to best, to overcome what it forces to become weakness that it may become strength.---the emergence of the weak side of Creation.

Its not that the feminine is weakness, but that weakness is feminine. The feminine is the representation of the negative side of creation, while the masculine represents the positive side; the duality of creation expressed in weakness and strength. Weakness has been named 'female' and is expressed in all the opposite qualities that have been designed and expressed by humanity to best describe the idea of human perfection, consequently of humanity's idea of what it calls God. Strength becomes strength through defeating and feeding. Weakness struggles for survival and finally gives up and lies down to be eaten, in other words, defeated----the creation of strength and weakness.

In the pursuit of becoming God, strength is seen as 'the essential' and so becomes the most important characteristic attributed to God--- strength-the ability to conquer; ultimately to conquer death. History, all the way back to the errant Sophia of Wisdom literature, reeks of attempts to disqualify any positive feminine ability or attribute and to render her nameless. Abuse, especially sexual, has kept the female meat for the hungry. Patriarchal religion has empowered and advanced itself though the consideration, application, and practice of the cruelest forms of abuse: the abuse of denying her a name as identity, the refusal to recognize and accept the female as equally human. The abuse of the feminine by religion through the loss of name, respect, and identity has been adopted and adapted throughout history to the present by social codes and standards and models of behavior, and has set and nourished the horrendously evil moral code of our history. Religion has set in process through abuse of the feminine its own desire to be the God it created to serve its own purpose.
