Rasa Transcript Analysis
November 2012

Topic One: Rasa’s view on mainstream society- dichotomy between men and
women:
WORSHIP OF THE PENIS
•    “At some point though, the shift turned from rule of the mother and
worship of Mother God and veneration of women, into… the change happened
mind you over thousands of years. But the change went from what I just
said into they changed, the image of Mother God into a Father God… and
veneration of men. And what you have then is the worship of the phallus,
worship of the dick, the penis.” – Rasa’s view on how the shift has
changed from the worship of the female to the worship of the male. Yeah,
so this is what we have been moving for thousands of years into a stronger
and stronger worship of the dick, instead of the yoni, the vagina.
•    this satin and his demons, their vocation, are to torture people on
earth and to create, you know, torment and temptation, to sin, and destroy
souls and bring them to hell. Now that is the myth of patriarchy. That is
the story that explains patriarchy. What happened in a myth, it’s
explained in a myth, but it’s actually a re-ali-ty. The reality, the
reality is men, men, human men, not all of them, but a percentage of them,
according to this it’s 1/3, a percentage of them followed, instead of
following mother god and women, decided to break away from mother god and
women and matriarchy, create their own kingdom, their own worship of
THEMSELVES!  And they created god in their own image. It became the rein
of the phallus, the rein of the penis! Worship of the penis instead of the
vagina.- Rasa discussed how the shift went from female to male worship.
•    … hatred, competition, murder, genocide, atrocities, abuse of animals,
abuse of people, slavery, and every violent thing that we know of that is
common that they attribute to humanity, all these violent things come out
of the mind and hearts of the men in charge of the world.- Rasa believes
this is what happens in a male dominated society.
MALE SEXUALITY
•    And so the men have the freedom to control us and manipulate us and make
us get surgeries and make us wear cosmetics and make us wear sexy clothes.
Because we had to snag men, and we still do a little bit. We had to snag
men by our sex. By giving them a hard on, it’s all about their hard on.-
In our society it’s all about the man’s happiness, especially in sex. We
live in a society where women cater to men.
•    You know so love as we know it, as we know it in this patriarchal world
is what I call the “Blow and Hump.” Blow and Hump. That’s all they know.
And they are getting their teaching about sex from two sources, two main
sources. One is religion and culture, which is basically, religion is
teaching you repression, guilt and shame, patriarchal religion. The second
template that they’re learning from is pornography. Do you realize how
many of these boys and men are addicted to pornography? And that is the
center of their sex life. They begin getting addicted, looking at I should
say, at 11 years of age.- Men are addicted to porn, which Rasa believes
may be a main reason why women cannot get good sex.
•    And they masturbate to pornography every day. So besides all the other
problems they are having sexually, what is left for women? Women are
getting the crumbs off the table of men’s sexuality. Women are frustrated.
Women aren’t getting enough sex, and they’re not getting enough good sex.
Cause men are men are masturbating to pornography every day. And the
pornography is teaching them woman abuse. Hate women! Exploit women! And
USE them! And right now the prevalent teaching is fuck them up the ass.
Fuck women up the ass, every young man I’ve been talking to in the last
couple years has been talking about, “Can I fuck you up the ass?”- again,
rasa discusses pornography, and how women are held up to almost impossible
standards because of it. Thanks to porn, we as women also don’t get good
sex!


Here you will find the beautiful, much endowed model Fitzgerald Scott. 
The work is © Rasa Von Werder, 2013.  These are pictures of young males
for EVERYONE - including WOMEN - Patriarchs have hoarded everything for
themselves.  It’s time for women to take back the world, the young men. 
Youth will now learn love, (not death), compassion, (not exploitation),
tenderness, (not rape), relationships, (not domination).  The woman
leading the man shows a different perspective; Rasa Von Werder, as a
female photographer, portrays males in a wholistic & sensitive manner.


•    And I started asking questions, “Are you getting this from pornography?”
Well yeah..  So pornography taught, why do you think all women have shaved
vaginas? From pornography. Pornography taught men and women that women’s
vaginas have to be shaved. And pornography is now teaching men to fuck
women up the ass.- Rasa questions how porn taught men that women should
have shaved vaginas and its okay to fuck them up the ass.
Topic Two: What Rasa believes her purpose is, and how society should be
WORSHIP OF MOTHER GOD
•    I am mother God on Earth.- Rasa believes she is mother god on earth.
•    And a change of everything from a maternal matriarchal nurturing giving
loving benevolent way into a way of violence- Rasa believes if women were
in power, life would be better and less violent.
•    And everything about the woman was sacred, everything about sex was
sacred women were very powerful. They were both sexual and spiritual; they
were revered to be sexual and spiritual. There was no dichotomy between
the two, and there was no sexual repression. Sex was not considered dirty,
something to snicker about. Sex was a celebration of life and love in
those days.- Today, Rasa believes that since males dominate our society,
we don’t celebrate life and love as much anymore.
•    The perspective with mother god and women was, and it’s coming back, was
sex contained LOVE. And sex, and that’s what women call ROMANCE. And
that’s why women eat up romantic novels.- women should be power because
then sex is romantic and meaningful
•    called Shaktism and Shaktism is worship of God through the woman’s body.
So you see sex and spirit were once COMPLETELY in union with one another.-
Rasa reiterating how women were sexual and spiritual and how men
appreciated that.
EXTINCTION OF MEN
•    you know with the genetic, with the new science of genetics, and all the
other advanced knowledge that we have now, studies and genetics and
biology, and physics and everything, it’s an absolutely known fact that
women are vastly superior to men. Vastly superior, it’s also known, that
men are going extinct. There will be no more human men in a hundred
thousand years or so, give or take 25 thousand years. The Y-chromosome is
crumblinggggg. We are already on the brink of matriarchy. You might even
say we are already in matriarchy, but people haven’t woken up and seen
it.- Rasa discusses how women are superior to men and why we should live
in a female dominated society.
•    ?” women are moving ahead very quickly, and men are falling behind, its
not just that women are beating men, but that the men are falling back!
They’re quitting, not only are they quitting college, but they’re quitting
high school. And not only that, they are committing suicide more than
ever. Men always committed suicide five times more than women, but now not
only are young men 13-2 committing suicide a lot, abnormally, a lot more
than women, but middle aged men are right now. Committing suicide. And men
in the army, in the armed forces, in the military are committing suicide.
Uuhhh, more than ever. They always did, but now again its more than ever-
men are killing themselves. because they, they cannot bear this world, its
too much for them to handle.- Again Rasa reiterates why males are going
extinct, and how they cannot handle life as well as women can.
•    Because women were taking over education and management, once you take
over education and management it’s all over, the writing’s on the walls.-
women are superior in profession settings
•    Men, all they had to do was have money And so that’s where women will be
soon. They won’t have to be beautiful and sexy and wear sexy clothes and
get implants and get cosmetics, uh you know. And an inch of makeup, and
wigs and weaves, and god knows, everything that women do to be beautiful.
It’s exhausting, everything that women have to do.- Rasa muses on the fact
that women need to wear heels haha we could relate! But soon, women won’t
need to wear heels because men will fall at our feet anyways.
Topic Three: Female Empowerment
WOMEN ARE SEXUAL AND SPIRITUAL
•    Stripping for god broke through a dichotomy and an assumption. And that
dichotomy is another thing that patriarchy did. Patriarchy turned religion
into a woman is no longer sexual and spiritual. Cause, sexual and
spiritual is in one body and one person. A woman is either a Madonna or a
whore. That’s called the Madonna/whore concept- Rasa is trying to break
through and get rid of this dichotomy. Women should not be a Madonna or a
whore, it’s not black and white like that.
•    I am both sexual and spiritual. You are not a slut and a whore or a
Madonna. Do not descend yourself and say, “I’m not like her, not like the
hooker on the street.” Do not disconnect yourself from your sister, do not
look down on your sister, but realize that all women, are sexual and
spiritual at the same time. And so when I stripped for god, that is what I
brought back, I brought back that I am sexual and spiritual because I am
giving a sermon about god first, and then i’m dancing and showing my body-
Rasa shows how its possible to be both sexual and spiritul, and why she
stripped for God. Rasa feels connected to Shacktism- worship of the
Vagina. Again, being sexual AND spiritual.

The work is © Rasa Von Werder, 2013.  These are pictures of young males
for EVERYONE - including WOMEN - Patriarchs have hoarded everything for
themselves.  It’s time for women to take back the world, the young men. 
Youth will now learn love, (not death), compassion, (not exploitation),
tenderness, (not rape), relationships, (not domination).  The woman
leading the man shows a different perspective; Rasa Von Werder, as a
female photographer, portrays males in a wholistic & sensitive manner.


TEACHER OF FEMALE EMPOWERMENT:
•    Which is, I am a template. I am a beginning. I am a teacher. I’m
teaching women, this is who you are.- Rasa is a teacher.
•    So that’s what I exemplified. I exemplified female strength! And female
liberty. That’s who I am. Female strength and female liberty.-Again, Rasa
is a techer.
•    I’m helping women understand men should be sex objects of women. Women
are the sex objects of men. I have been in the adult trade most of my life
as a model and as a dancer and I, the prevalent view point was always
WOMEN are the sex objects of men. So part of what I’m doing now is I’m
helping women to understand men are the sex objects of women- Trying to
convince other women to stand up for themselves and start having better
sex.
•    So I’m now on the forefront of teaching women and men a new sexuality.
Uh, I branched into sexuality I was celibate for 31 years. I started
dating again 4 ½ years ago. I am teaching women, “Look, men are your sex
objects. You are powerful. Go out with any age man you want. Go out with
young men.” I’m working to build a harem of young men myself I don’t have
it yet but I’m working towards it, that’s my goal.- Rasa wants many young
men to herself, and does not think men should be the only ones with power.
•    And I’m trying to help women to understand, “you’re getting powerful,
you’re getting money, start spending it. Spending it on pleasure! Spend it
on boys, on young men if you wish. You have the money stop giving it you
know to the Catholic Church or any church or anybody that’s gonna, you
know that’s doing evil. Use it for yourself. Use it for your own
happiness, your own pleasure. Go out with young men and see them as sex
objects.”- Rasa wants girls to have fun and have a lot of good sex!
•    In the last 5 years. So I do writing and teaching. I’m an educator, and
I’m an exemplar. An educator and an exemplar. I don’t just teach, see like
there’s people that sit in the college or university and they teach. I
live it! I live it! And they I teach it. See when I went downtown for 4
years every weekend, I was teaching by my living! I was living what I was
teaching.- Rasa is a techer.
•    well I’m an exemplar because I’m the oldest woman down there so I am
teaching “the old woman” to have fun. So I published 2 books called “Old
Woman, Young Men: Why You Belong Together.” And I explained the whole
philosophy, the whole philosophy is way beyond the cougar, um, concept.
WAY BEYOND THAT. It’s about taking back the world from the old men- Rasa
discusses her accomplishments and published books.

NOTE: Rasa explains a lot of our topics herself, so we didn’t know how
else to analyze the interview without just grouping topics into categories
and letting her words guide us.

THEIR FINAL PAPER

RASA TEACHES SEX
BINGHAMTON UNIVERSITY STUDENTS INTERVIEW RASA – IT BRINGS THEIR GRADES UP
TO AN “A”

Rasa:  This paper is not comprehensive nor does it cover a lot of my views
– It discusses one of my views on sexuality.  Give the kids time.  They
can’t grasp it all at once.  This young lady, Natalie, asked me for a
second interview on another paper for herself & her male partner.
Meanwhile I have heard from yet another student to do an interview / paper
on me, the same University.

From Natalie

I attached two documents, one is our analysis based off the interview,
which guided our paper, and the other is the final paper. The grading was
done in hard copy, so i can't send you comments, but we got a 60/60, which
brought my grade up from a B to an A- in the class! I was very excited. I
look forward to speaking with you again, and will probably e-mail/call you
once i think of another research topic within the next couple weeks.

Mother God On Earth

INTRODUCTION:
From birth to adulthood, people all over the world learn what is expected
of them based upon their gender. These identities that people form often
define the people they grow to be, and their relationships with others. In
American culture, we abide by a highly patriarchal system. Women are often
seen as inferior to men and therefore receive fewer benefits in both the
work field as well as the social field. Female sexuality is limited, and
based on a strong double standard. There exists a classification
separating women into two categories, the “Madonna” if they are a “good
girl,” and the “whore” if they are promiscuous.
Our interviewee, Rasa Von Werder, an infamous figure around Binghamton
University, disagrees with this mainstream belief, and argues that women
can be both sexual and spiritual at the same time. Her version of
feminism, which she likes to call female empowerment, is a way for women
to embrace their sexuality and be comfortable in their own bodies.  Rasa
believes that she is “Mother God on Earth,” and was sent here by God to
bring back a society that worships the woman, or the “vagina.” Rasa wants
to be an exemplar for other women, and strives to teach men and women a
new sexuality (Interview, October 7, 2012).

LITERATURE REVIEW:
Past studies have shown the “learned” nature of gender. Gender is not a
biological characteristic but rather something that humans “do,” (Eckert &
McConnell, 2003, p. 10). Eckert & McConnell discuss the “gradual process”
of learning to be a boy or a girl (p.16). This process creates a dichotomy
between men and women, as each gender grows to learn what is to be
expected of him or her. “Men are strong. women are weak: men are
aggressive, women are passive; men are sex-driven, women are
relationship-driven: men are impassive, women are emotional,” (Eckert &
McConnell, 2003, p.35). Although Western society has created this
discourse, these distinct characteristics of men and women have seemed to
become “natural.”  It is often difficult for women to break these
stereotypes and identify themselves as strong, sexual human beings; and
even if they do, they are often not taken seriously.
    Instead of women being appreciated for their sexuality and strength,
there is a lot of emphasis put on the sexualization of the female body.
Lee’s (1994) research specifically focuses on menarche, and how it
affects women. She studies how a lot of women feel anxious or ashamed of
their periods, and feel like they need to hide evidence of their
bleeding. Because of this, women feel like they need to focus their
attention on a more sexualized body image instead (Lee, 1994, p.360).
Menarche is seen as something that makes women “gross” or “ugly.” If we
lived in a matriarchal society where people “worshiped the vagina,”
menarche would be something natural and beautiful, symbolizing
reproductive and sexual potential, as opposed to something women should
be ashamed of (Lee, 1994, p.360).
    In Evans’ (2006) research, thirteen to sixteen year old girls also dealt
with serious body image problems when it came to participation in high
school physical education classes. Based on what a patriarchal society
expects of women, many adolescent girls grow up with the beliefs that
they always need to look sexy and feminine to impress men. Evans (2006)
notes that girls’ bodies are decorative, making them feel ashamed when
participating in sports (p. 548). When the girls were asked how they
would feel if they had to participate in PE with boys, they said they
would not be happy because it would be too embarrassing.  These girls are
afraid to be seen as “too athletic” or “not athletic enough.” Both Lee
and Evans touch on sensitive subjects that girls need to deal with when
going through puberty. The articles show how a male-dominated culture
often makes women feel uncomfortable in their own skin and ashamed of
themselves and their bodies.
    According to Tolman (1994), past research has found that female sexual
desire is defined by society’s dominant patriarchal system. Often women
are unable to recognize their own sexual feelings in order to abide by
social pressures of being a “good” woman (p. 325). Tolman discusses the
“Madonna/whore dichotomy” that Rasa also talks about. During adolescence,
girls’ bodies start to change and they begin to be viewed as sexual,
which conflicts with the “good girl” or “Madonna” image that females are
expected to have (Tolman, 1994, p.325). The research discusses how girls
learn to look at themselves through the perspectives of how men will view
them, and therefore lose touch with their own sexual feelings (Tolman,
1994).
Supporting Rasa’s version of female empowerment, Hanna Rosin (2012)
conducted research on the “hookup culture” at Yale University to get a
better insight on what young women want. She found that many young women
admitted to enjoying casual sex, and how they used their sexuality to gain
control over men. “Young women are more in control of their sexual
destinies now than probably ever before,” states Rosin (p.18). However,
when Rosin continued to research the subject regarding college hookups,
she found that young men were actually judging girls for their sexual
behaviors, taking it as far as tallying “fuck points” on the bulletin
board of their frat house. This tally system dehumanized these girls,
turning them from women to simply pawns in a game. Girls who slept with
several guys were not only given more “fuck points,” but were given
derogatory nicknames as well (Rosin, 2012, p. 20). This relates back to
the “Madonna/Whore” concept because while many college girls were enjoying
and exploring their sexuality, young men were judging them for it.
In contrast to Rosin’s studies, Orbach and Eichenbaum (1983) discuss how
women know and expect that their sexual needs will not be met in bed.
According to the authors, women are too occupied with satisfying their
partners during sex instead of focusing on themselves (p. 114). In the
patriarchal society that we live in, it is no surprise that women feel
inferior to men even in the privacy of their bedrooms.

METHODS:
Rasa is well known among college students in Binghamton since she parties
with us downtown. Around campus we had heard of her and her experiences
“stripping for god.” She is an extremely interesting woman who has been
around the world, has given a great amount of sermons, and has written
many books. We selected her because of her unique view on femininity,
sexuality, and spirituality. She is currently not in the area because she
is elsewhere focusing on spreading her beliefs; therefore we had to
conduct the interview over the phone.
Natalie spoke with Rasa as Haley wrote down some notes and listened in. We
originally had questions regarding her background and religious mission,
but Rasa ended up directing the conversation, which was a lot more
interesting. Our questions helped guide the interview, but Rasa surprised
us with a lot of information that we did not expect, shaping our topic
into what it is now. She certainly had a lot to say, and provided us with
a lot of knowledge about her beliefs, life, and experiences. After the
interview, we read through all of the information that she gave us, and
analyzed her thoughts based on major themes involving gender dichotomies,
spirituality, and female empowerment.

FINDINGS:
Studying Rasa is important not only because she is “Mother God on Earth”,
but because she is an educator teaching women around the world to be both
sexual and spiritual. She does not follow a specific religion but instead
uses God to support her argument of female sacredness. She believes that
her mission through God is to bring back female power and dominance. Her
ideas and views on sexuality and gender are very interesting and different
than what mainstream Western society believes, and it’s always exciting to
get a different perspective (Interview, October 7, 2012).
Rasa spent many years of her life trying to break the sexual
classification of females by “Stripping for God.” “You are not a slut and
a whore or a Madonna... realize that all women, are sexual and spiritual
at the same time. And so when I stripped for God, that is what I brought
back, I brought back that I am sexual and spiritual because I am giving a
sermon about God first, and then I’m dancing and showing my body,”
(Interview, October 7, 2012, 151-156). Rasa toured the country “stripping
for god” and spreading her female empowering beliefs. She strongly
disagrees with patriarchal society’s limitations on female’s ability to
express themselves sexually, something that Tolman (2012) also heavily
focuses on. If women do exhibit sexual desire they are often seen as
promiscuous. By “stripping for God” Rasa hoped to prove that a woman can
still maintain her faith and respect while expressing herself sexually as
well.
One of Rasa’s main goals as Mother God on Earth is to help all women feel
comfortable with their bodies and sexual desires. “I’m helping women
understand men should be sex objects of women,” (Interview, October 7,
2012, 284). In her version of feminism, she believes that women should be
able to use men for their own sexual needs. She goes far enough to claim
that women are in fact the dominant gender and deserve the power in the
male/female relationship (Interview, October 7, 2012). “Women are getting
the crumbs off the table of men’s sexuality” (Interview, October 7, 2012,
400-401). Like Orbach and Eichenbaum (1983), Rasa argues that women are
not sexually satisfied, and are treated as inferior in bed. According to
Rasa’s strong feminist views, women are not getting enough good sex, let
alone enough sex in the first place (Interview, October 7, 2012, 400-401).
She believes that heterosexual men are only concerned with their own
sexual desires and do not take the time to cater to the sexual needs of
their female partners. Changing the dynamics between men and women in the
bedroom is one of Rasa’s main goals. Rasa wants to educate women, and help
them know what they want in bed, and in the end be more sexually satisfied
(Interview, October 7, 2012).
Rasa’s sexual adventures in downtown Binghamton led to her many
realizations about the sexuality of twenty first century American youth.
When she noticed a pattern of young men asking her to “fuck her up the
ass,” the first thing she wondered was where a request like that was
coming from (Interview, October 7, 2012, 404-408). She concluded, that
exploiting women was positively correlated with watching lots of
pornography. Rasa believes that one reason why women lack sexual
satisfaction is because men spend all of their time “masturbating to
pornography,” (Interview, October 7, 2012, 402-403). According to Rasa,
this high level of pornography consumption gives men high and unrealistic
expectations of how females should act, behave, and look during sex. A
good amount of popular pornography in the twenty first century depicts men
as sexually dominant in the bedroom. According to Rasa, this teaches men
to exploit women, abuse them, hate them, and use them (Interview, October
7, 2012, 402-404).

CONCLUSION:
    Rasa Von Werder’s unconventional ideas regarding women’s sexuality go way
beyond the traditional ideals of feminism. After speaking with her, we
were able to get full insight on how Rasa hopes to help change western
culture into a more matriarchal society. Along with previous research,
Rasa agrees that there is a double standard placed on women to be “good
girls” but also sexual beings that can satisfy men. She has devoted her
life to erasing this standard and making girls feel more comfortable with
their sexuality.
    Some of the most interesting components to Rasa’s version of feminism are
the contradictions. One finding that stood out to us during our interview
was the contradiction between her childhood experiences and the way she
views men and women now. When talking about her mother, Rasa described
her as an extremely mean and abusive person. On the other hand, her
father took the kind and nurturing role in raising her (Interview,
October 7, 2012, 213-216). This goes against her views today regarding
the natural evil nature of men and superiority of women. We wonder how
she came to these conclusions after growing up with parents that went
against the typical male/female stereotypes.
    To further investigate Rasa’s case it would be very interesting to speak
with her daughter.  Although she was not mentioned much in the interview,
Rasa stated that her daughter has become a religious Muslim who now lives
in Turkey. It would be interesting to see how and why she chose that
path, instead of following in her mother’s footsteps. She may be able to
give us more insight on her own experiences. Rasa has inspired many women
all over the world to stand up for themselves sexually, and continues to
do so today.

BAPTISTS COVER UP 4 EACH OTHER MOLESTING CHILDREN
  Baptist Hide & Seek

Ever wonder why there are so many stories about child-molesting priests
and not many
about child-molesting Baptist ministers? It's not  because there are less
predatory
clergy among Baptists. It's because there are easier hiding places among
Baptists.
"It's harder to track down sexual abuse allegations involving children in
Protestant
denominations."

Baptist scholars confirm this: "The problem of clergy sexual abuse is not
just a
Catholic issue...Studies have shown no difference in its frequency by
denomination,
region, theology, or institutional structure." But while Catholics and
most mainline
Protestant denominations have developed national policies to deal with the
problem,
"decentralized denominations such as the Southern Baptist
Convention...have no
national policies" and "sexual misconduct is routinely covered up in these
settings." Trull & Carter, Ministerial Ethics at p. 162 (2d ed. 2004).

Remember: Most clergy child molesters have never been convicted of
anything. Of all
the Catholic priests who have been removed from ministry, only 3 percent
were able
to be criminally prosecuted and only 2 percent were ever jailed. If Catholics
themselves had not taken action - finally - over 700 child molesting
priests would
still be working in ministry. The largest Protestant denomination needs to do
something about this problem as well.

How do the cover ups happen with Baptists?

The buck stops nowhere.
For a Baptist minister, there is no one with the power to remove his
credentials or
to say that he can no longer be a minister. This is unlike the Catholic
system
where, if a bishop suspected a problem with one of his priests, and did
nothing
about it, he could be held accountable.

If a Baptist minister began to suspect a problem with one of his
colleagues, it
would be far easier for him to simply suggest that the problem minister
move on.
Though irresponsible, it would be much more comfortable to choose not to
look too
closely. If no investigation is done, and no record made, there’s nothing
to tell to
the man’s new church. So rather than going through the difficulty of
determining the
facts, the problem minister is simply allowed to go on his way to a new
congregation, where he may find fresh young prey.

In "Where Does the Baptist Buck Stop?" columnist Terry Mattingly explained
how the
Baptist system leaves a void in accountability. The buck stops nowhere.

The church where it happened says "not our problem."
Most clergy abuse victims do not speak of the trauma at the time. This is
normal and
well-documented. If they speak of it at all, it is usually many years later.

At that point, the victim goes back to the church where it happened, and
that church
effectively says, “Not our problem - he’s not here.” (That’s the good-case
scenario;
in some cases, the church also tries to intimidate the victim, presumably
so that
the church's complicity in the cover-up will not be revealed.)

No denominational help for finding the hiding predator.
If the perpetrator has moved several times, as is often the  case, the
victim may
not be able to find him, and there is no denominational office to turn to
for help.
(The SBC’s ministerial database is not reliable and is easily manipulated.
Even
prominent ministers may not appear in it, and a minister’s name can be
readily
removed to avoid detection.) Without denominational assistance, locating the
perpetrator can take a lot of time, money and energy, and many victims
will give up.

This is a hide & seek game in which the clergy-predator gets a
many-years-long head
start and the hiding places span the country.

No systematic record-keeping
Catholic canon law requires record-keeping. So, they keep records on
virtually
everything, including where priests are located and including any abuse
reports. So,
it's easier to track priests, and when lawsuits are filed, there are often
documents
that show the history of accusations against a priest. But with Baptists,
no one is
keeping any records. How would anyone know whether a particular minister
had any
abuse reports made against him? Even if someone made a report, where would
it be
filed? Would it even be kept? What system is there?

Who's a "minister"? It's a word-game that can throw victims off-track.
Denominational leaders may play games that throw the victim off-track. For
example,
the victim may be told that the man isn't an "ordained" minister, and the
victim may
walk away thinking this means he is no longer a minister. But that's just a
word-game. A great many Baptist ministers are not formally ordained, but
people in
the pews  still see them as ministers. (For example, First Baptist Church
of Farmers
Branch initially said that James A. Moore is "not an ordained minister."
Yet, Moore
was listed in the SBC's online registry of "ministers", and then temporarily
removed, and then returned to the registry when the lawsuit was over. And
the church
itself now lists Moore on its website as "minister of music.")

This ease of being (or not being) a "minister" is also why it's easier for
predators
to infiltrate Baptist clergy ranks than Catholic ranks. Priests go through a
definite period of training, but with Baptist clergy, almost anyone who
can convince
a dozen deacons that he's been called by God to serve their church can be a
minister.

Similarly, a man can be moved from being a minister "on staff" at a church
to being
a "consulting" minister. Because he isn't on staff, it may make it harder
to track
him and it allows leaders to play word-games with whether he is in a
ministerial
position. Of course, most people in the pews will simply view the man as a
minister
and may not have any idea whether he's on staff or merely consulting.
Again, this
sort of gamesmanship about what constitutes a "minister" wouldn't be
possible in the
Catholic system. A priest is a priest until he's defrocked.

The man's current church says "not our problem."
If a victim gets lucky and, even with no help from the denomination, still
manages
to find the perpetrator, she may then attempt to contact the man’s current
church.
But the leaders of that church will probably say something like, “Not our
problem -
we only deal with things that happen in our own church.” That's if they
respond at
all. The current church is just as likely to completely ignore this
stranger from
the outside, who is trying to warn them about their much-loved minister,
and there
is no denominational process that would compel them to investigate.

Denominational leaders say "not our problem."
Ignored by the churches, the victim may then turn to denominational
leaders at the
state and national level. They wash their hands of it and say, “Not our
problem -
congregational autonomy.” This assumes that they say anything at all. They
may be
just as likely to simply ignore the victim. So the minister may have been
found, but
his predator persona still remains well-hidden.

Dee Miller has written at length about how Southern Baptist structure allows
denominational leaders to turn a blind eye to clergy sex abuse. See her
article,
"The Collusion Act of the Southern Baptist Convention and Clergy Sex Abuse."

Absent denominational action, the press is less likely to publish.
What about the press you say? Most newspapers won’t take the risk of
writing about
clergy abuse claims unless there is a conviction, some denominational
action, or a
lawsuit. For clergy child molesters, there are few convictions because the
nature of
the psychological damage is such that victims often don't report it until
after the
period for prosecution has passed. Most of the news reports you read about
Catholic
priests are NOT reports about convictions but are instead about action
taken by a
bishop, such as suspending a priest or removing a priest from duties.
Catholics have
a hierarchy and they have an abuse review board, and so they have the
possibility of
denominational action that can serve as the impetus for a news report.
Southern
Baptists don’t have a hierarchical structure or any sort of abuse review
board.
Since there’s no possibility of any denominational action that a reporter
can use as
a launchpad for an article, the news about a reported clergy-perpetrator
never makes
it to the people in the pews.

Lawsuits are also less likely with Baptists.
The remaining possibility for disclosing the hiding clergy-predator is a
lawsuit,
and that too is far more problematic with a Baptist predator. The autonomous
structure makes it much easier for a Baptist church to reorganize and
present itself
as though it were an entirely new entity with no connection to the church
in which
the perpetrator previously worked. Catholic dioceses endure. By comparison, a
Baptist church can exist or not exist almost at whim.

This means that, in many cases, an attorney will size up the situation of
a Baptist
abuse victim and see that, no matter how horrible the crime and no matter how
certain that it occurred, the odds are nevertheless great against ever
obtaining any
monetary recovery. Even if the attorney thinks he can get past the very
significant
limitations hurdle that presents itself in most cases, there may still be the
additional risk that the church will be able to evade liability by
contending that
it’s not the same church. And even if the attorney thinks he can get past
both of
those front-end hurdles, he may look down the road and see that, even if
he takes
the case to the limit and flat-out wins, the autonomous individual church
could
still restructure post-trial and avoid payment of any judgment far more
easily than
a Catholic diocese would be able to.

Not only is it easier for an autonomous Baptist church to restructure
itself, but
the entire Southern Baptist denomination is set up in a way that provides
an almost
perfect wall for allowing the state and national organizations to avoid
liability.
It is much easier to get at deep-pockets in a hierarchical system than in
a system of autonomy.

Like anyone else, attorneys are people who need to make a living. Most
cannot afford
to work several hundred hours on a case without a reasonable likelihood of
obtaining
some income out of it. That’s just reality. So, most attorneys cannot take
on a case
if they see that the odds are too greatly stacked against obtaining a
financial
recovery - and that evaluation may have nothing at all to do with the
merits of the
case or the truth of the claim, but instead may turn on these sorts of
technicalities.

The increased difficulty of recovery in a suit against a Baptist church
may also
make the attorney very reluctant to put the client through the additional
anguish
that a lawsuit would bring to her, particularly when the victim has
already been
told by confident church leaders that they will “crucify her” if she
pursues it. Why
put the client through hell if you can’t foresee a strong possibility that
she’ll be
able to impose some accountability and achieve some closure via the lawsuit?

So, even with respect to the viability of a lawsuit, Baptists' autonomous
structure
works against the possibility that a clergy predator will ever be exposed.
And
without a lawsuit, it is very unlikely that a reporter will be able to
print a story
about the victim’s report of sexual abuse. The people in the pews in all the
congregations where the man has worked will remain unaware.

Bottom line: The Baptist system shields clergy perpetrators.
Every step of the way, the Baptist clergy-predator stays well-hidden in
the layers
of autonomy. As Marv Knox, editor of the Baptist Standard wrote, Baptists'
disconnected system is a structure that "indirectly shields perpetrators."

The only way this problem will be solved is if denominational leaders make
protecting kids the paramount priority and impose a system for
accountability.
Tragically, it seems that so long as state and national organizations
perceive that
they are at little risk of legal liability, they lack the motivation to be
proactive
in taking steps to protect kids.

Kids in Baptist churches would be a great deal safer if denominational
leaders would
recognize that, whether or not they have any legal obligation, they have a
moral
obligation to congregations and to the public to investigate and disclose
admitted,
proven and credibly accused child molesters hiding among the ranks of Baptist
clergy.

Deadly Secrets: New book shows terrible cost of Baptists' keep-it-quiet
culture


Author Kathryn Casey tells the true crime story of Southern Baptist pastor
Matt
Baker, who was able to migrate through many Baptist churches and schools
despite
multiple reports of sexual assault and abuse. In Baptistland, Baker
apparently
learned that his deeds carried no consequence. Ultimately he tried to get
away with
murder. . .  and he nearly did.  This is NOT fiction. Here’s an excerpt
from Deadly
Little Secrets.

”When her parents arrived, they accompanied Lora back to the stadium to
meet with
Sims. Once Lora explained what had happened, Matt was called into Sims’s
office.
'Matt admitted what he’d done, but he said he didn’t realize he was
hurting me,' she
said. But there was no doubt that Lora had attempted to fight him off,
attested to
by the bite mark on his shoulder.

'This will be taken care of,' Sims assured her, saying she didn’t need to
involve
the police. Lora and her parents agreed to let the university handle the
situation..
. . .  [“The university” is Baylor, a school affiliated with the Baptist
General
Convention of Texas.]

Lora returned to the campus after Christmas break… When she reported for
work at the
stadium, Matt was there, and it appeared his only punishment was to be
confined to
the training room to work with the players. ‘That was something that
usually only
the seniors were able to do,’ Lora says. ‘It wasn’t a punishment. It was
more of a
promotion.’

Clergy sex abuse and the "silence of the many"


"True evil lies not in the depraved act of the one, but in the silence of
the many."
On this day, I am contemplating these words, attributed to a black Baptist
preacher,
Martin Luther King, Jr.

In countless stories of Baptist clergy sex abuse, we have seen the sad
truth of
King’s words made manifest. Even with childhood histories of horrific
abuse – of
having been molested, raped and sodomized by Baptist preachers – many have
said that
the worst of their experience came when they tried to tell about the abuse
within
the faith community.

That was when they faced “the silence of the many.”

That was when the relational fabric of community, and often even of
family, was torn
asunder.

That was when faith itself was deemed a fraud.

Church after church has stood, not in solidarity with those who have been
abused by
clergy, but rather, with the accused minister-molesters. Often, the
churches have
stood with the ministers even when they admit their soul-murdering deeds, and
sometimes, even when they have been criminally convicted.

Church leaders have quietly allowed accused preacher-predators – even
those with
multiple accusations -- to hop to new churches – and to do so repeatedly.

Denominational leaders have sat back and claimed powerlessness.
Simultaneously, they
have stayed silent about Baptist pastors, including some high-profile
pastors, who
kept quiet about abuse allegations involving ministerial staff.

The unmistakable message of so much silence and do-nothingness is that, among
Baptists, clergy sex abuse is typically treated as “no big deal.”

No one in Baptistland wants to hear the voices of those who were sexually
abused by
Baptist clergy. Indeed, in the Southern Baptist Convention, there does not
even
exist a basic structure to support the compassionate hearing of such
wounded people.
Instead, they are told that they must take their allegations to the church
of the
accused minister. This is like telling bloody sheep that, if they want
help, they
must go to the den of the wolf who savaged them. It is a system that does
not work.

But no one in denominational offices will take responsibility for assuring
that
clergy abuse allegations will be responsibly heard, or even that any
records will be
kept.

As a practical matter, because the vast majority of molestation
allegations cannot
be criminally prosecuted, a Southern Baptist preacher can stand in a
pulpit so long
as he is not literally sitting in prison. There is no denominational
entity that
will stop him. Even when a minister has hopped through multiple churches
in multiple
states with multiple allegations, Southern Baptist denominational entities
pretend
that it is better to not know -- to not even try to know.

Denominational leaders claim that their hands are tied by the
congregationalist
polity of Southern Baptist churches. In effect, they assert an “it’s our
religion”
rationalization for denominational do-nothingness.

However, some have realized that this is not truly a stance based on
religion.
Rather, it is based on the weighing of “responsibility and liability
issues.” In
effect, it’s a business decision. As David Roozen, director of the Hartford
Institute for Religion Research at Hartford Seminary, recently explained:
“If the
organizing body of a denomination claims no responsibility for
supervising, or even
ordaining clergy, it may be harder to hold it responsible when a pastor
molests a
child.”

Southern Baptist leaders have weighed these “responsibility and liability”
issues
and have come down on the side of seeking to protect denominational
entities via a
do-nothing response. Other major faith groups, including some
congregationalist
faith groups, have come down on the side of seeking to protect church kids
via the
implementation of denominational review boards to assess abuse
allegations. Such
review boards can at least provide a first step toward denominationally
hearing the
voices of those abused by clergy.

leading the man shows a different perspective; Rasa Von Werder, as a
female photographer, portrays males in a wholistic & sensitive manner.


But for Southern Baptists, this first step remains untaken. They stand on
an island of inertia.

The result is that Baptist church kids are being ravaged, not only by the
sexual
abuse of many ministers, but also by the denomination’s complicit silence.
The
rationalization by which the denomination cloaks its do-nothingness is of
little
consequence; this is true even when that rationalization is called
“religion.”

The end of power remains the same  --  to preserve the status quo. If
Southern
Baptists want to responsibly engage their faith with respect to clergy sex
abuse,
they must start by considering the silent complicity of their own church and
denominational power structures. They must respond to this systemic
problem from a
position of compassion and care rather than from a position of power.

What better way for Baptists to honor a Baptist preacher’s timeless voice for
justice than by committing to actively hear the voices of those brutalized
by their
own clergy and ostracized by their own complicity?

Baptists should heed mother's call for accountability


Members of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Pastors
at Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, Texas, on January 26, 2012.

A mother, who says her son was repeatedly molested by a minister at one of
the
Southern Baptist Convention’s largest churches, claims the church needs to
come
clean about a cover-up of child sexual abuse.

“I want people to know the truth,” she said in a written statement
released to CBS
News last Saturday. “The hurt our family endured…is indescribable. . . .
The church
never reported John to the police . . . . We ask that Prestonwood take
responsibility for their cover-up, and to say they are sorry.”

After minister John Langworthy was allowed to simply walk away from abuse
allegations at Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, Texas in the late
1980s, he went
on to serve two decades as music minister at another prominent Southern
Baptist
church, Morrison Heights in Clinton, Mississippi. There, he recently
received a
50-year suspended sentence for molesting multiple boys as young as six. But
Langworthy avoided prison time because, in the plea bargain process,
prosecutors
were concerned about the statute of limitations.

So, thanks to many years of secrecy surrounding his crimes, minister John
Langworthy
walks away with no prison time. But no one should overlook the fact that
his crimes
could have been disclosed many years earlier – and countless kids better
protected
-- if only the leadership of Prestonwood had spoken up and reported
Langworthy to
police.

As described in the Associated Baptist Press, Prestonwood is the
fifth-largest
church in the Southern Baptist Convention. Its pastor, Jack Graham, was a
two-term
Southern Baptist Convention president from 2002-2004. So this is a pastor
who is
well-entrenched in Baptists’ good-ol’-boy network.

Who in that Baptist network will now answer this mother’s anguished call for
accountability? Who will require that Prestonwood “take responsibility for
their
cover-up”? Will anyone do diddly-squat? Not if the patterns of the past
continue.

Much like the insider network that covered up a coach’s abuse of kids at
Penn State,
the Baptist good-ol’-boys don’t hold one another accountable.

MALE VIOLENCE—YES THEY R VIOLENT, MUCH MORE SO THAN WOMEN

Why are men more violent than women?

    Around the world, women report physical and sexual violence against
them from an intimate partner at a rate of 15 to70 percent, depending
on the country. That means that at some point in their lives, between
15 percent and 70 percent of all women have experienced violence at
the hands of a partner. Up to 11 percent also report violence from
someone other than a partner [source: World Health Organization].

    In the United States in 2008, there were more than 550,000 women or
girls age 12 and older who were victims of violence at the hands of
intimate partners -- or ex-partners. To be fair, however, men also are
victims of domestic violence. In the same year, about 101,000 men
experienced violence from partners [source: Department of Justice].
Some of this violence might have come from same-sex partners, but the
same could be said for some abused women. Women are killed by intimate
partners twice as often as men, while men are more likely to be killed
by people they don't know.

    Sociologists and psychologists debate why men display violent tendencies

RASA:  EXCUSE ME, VIOLENT TENDENCIES?  IT IS MUCH MORE THAN THAT, IT IS
BEHAVIOR, IT IS ACTS OF VIOLENCE.

more often than women. One theory is that it stems from a basic gap in
equality between genders. The argument states that men have more
opportunities to commit violence than women. The fact that men dominate
most criminal organizations seems to provide evidence for this theory.
But other experts disagree with this assessment, calling it too narrow a
view. They suggest there may be psychological differences between men and
women that can explain the disparity. Physiological differences also have
been proposed. For instance, adult men have twice as much testosterone as
women do [source: deMause]. This theory also can be debated, however,
because testosterone levels are equal in young children, yet boys tend to
play more violent games and act in domineering ways compared with girls.

    The ways in which boys and girls learn to deal with fear and adversity
might explain some of the violent tendencies in men. Girls tend to
retreat within themselves or try to please, but boys might act out
their fears with violence, risk-taking and even self-destructiveness
[source: deMause]. Recent research on chimps has quieted long-held
beliefs that both chimps and humans -- particularly the species' males
-- evolved with a propensity toward violence. Instead, it is more
likely that cultural and societal practices have led to violence among
men and some women [source: Narvaez]. The bottom line is that there
really is no single reason why men are more violent.

RASA:  YES, THERE IS A REASON OR REASONS.  YOU ALL ARE JUST NOT STUDYING &
TUNING INTO IT, BECAUSE YOU ARE DUMB.  STUDY “KILLOLOGY” & YOU WILL KNOW
WHY.  ALSO STUDY WILLIAM BOND & HIS GREAT TEACHINGS.  I HAVE MY OWN
THEORIES ALSO, ON TOP OF THAT.  MEN ARE VIOLENT BECAUSE THEY ARE STUPID.
ONLY A STUPID SPECIES OR GENDER WOULD DESTROY OTHERS AS WELL AS ITSELF –
THE HEIGHT OF STUPIDITY.  EVEN TODDLER BOYS ARE STUPID & MUCH MORE VIOLENT
& DESTRUCTIVE THAN GIRLS—BEFORE THERE IS A CHANCE TO PROGRAM OR BRAINWASH
THEM INTO IT.

It’s 2013, And They’re Burning ‘Witches’
By Jo ChandlerFebruary 15, 2013

Belief in black magic persists in Papua New Guinea, where communities are
warping under the pressure of the mining boom’s unfulfilled expectations.
Women are blamed, accused of sorcery and branded as witches — with
horrific consequences.

RASA:  THE ARTICLE EXPLAINS WHERE WOMEN WHO R MARGINALIZED—DO NOT HAVE A
HUSBAND OR STRONG SONS, R SCAPEGOATED 4 THE PROBLEMS OF THE COMMUNITY—JUST
AS HAPPENED IN THE “BURNING TIMES” OR INQUISITION OF 300 YEARS—WHERE FROM
THE PULPITS OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH, WOMEN WERE CONDEMNED AS THE CAUSE OF
EVERY EVIL UPON MANKIND.  THESE WOMEN SUSPECTED WERE USUALLY OLDER (IF U
LIVED PAST 40 IN THOSE DAYS & ALONE, U WERE A SORCERESS)—THESE WOMEN WERE
ARRESTED, TORTURED TO DEATH.  IF U EVER SAW A DOCUMENTARY OF HOW CATHOLIC
MALES INSTITUTE A CHURCH, U WILL LAUGH UR HEAD OFF @ THE NUMBER OF
*SPELLS” THEY USE – MAICAL DOZENS OF SPELLS—THEY TOOK OVER THE SPELLS OF
THE WOMEN & INSTITUTED THEIR OWN.  I AM PROUD OF THE FACT THAT IT WAS *MY
PRAYERS* WHICH CAUSED THE “CATHOLIC CRISIS” OR *BLESSING” MORE ACCURATELY,
OF EXPOSING THE 2,000 YEAR PRACTICE OF PEDOPHILIA.  SO AS IT WAS THEN, SO
IT IS NOW, THEY JUST WON’T STOP UNTIL WE WOMEN TAKE OVER & STOP THEM, &
THEN – FINALLY – EXTINCTION OF THIS DISEASE CALLED HUMAN MALES.  (APOLOGY
TO THE GOOD MALES)

“They’re going to cook the sanguma mama!”

The shout went up from a posse of children as they raced past the health
clinic in a valley deep in the Papua New Guinean highlands. Inside,
Swiss-born nurse and nun Sister Gaudentia Meier — 40-something years and a
world away from the ordered alps of her homeland — was getting on with her
daily routine, patching the wounds and treating the sicknesses of an
otherwise woefully neglected population. It was around lunchtime, she
recalls.

Sister Gaudentia knew immediately the spectacle the excited children were
rushing to see. They were on their way to a witch-burning. There are many
names for dark magic in the 850 tongues of Papua New Guinea, sanguma
resonating widely in these mountains. The 74-year-old sister hurriedly
rounded up some of her staff, loaded them in a car and followed the crowd,
with a strong foreboding of what she would find.

Two days earlier she had tried to rescue Angela (not her real name), an
accused witch, when she was first seized by a gang of merciless
inquisitors looking for someone to blame for the recent deaths of two
young men. They had stripped their quarry naked, blindfolded her, berated
her with accusations and slashed her with bush knives (machetes). The
“dock” for her trial was a rusty length of corrugated roofing, upon which
she was displayed trussed and helpless. Photographs taken by a witness on
a mobile phone show that the packed, inert public gallery encircling her
included several uniformed police.

In Papua New Guinea, the Pacific nation just a short boat ride from
Australia’s far north, 80 per cent of the 7 million-plus population live
in rural and remote communities. Many have little access to even basic
health and education, surviving on what they eat or earn from their
gardens. There are few roads out, but a burgeoning network of
digital-phone towers and dirt-cheap handsets now connect them to the world
— assuming they can plug into power and scrounge a few kina-worth of
credit.

The beautiful landscape of PNG’s highlands belies the brutal reality of
life in the region, where more than 90 per cent of women report suffering
gender-based violence.

The resources-rich country is in the midst of a mining boom, but the
wealth bypasses the vast majority. In their realities, some untouched by
outside influence until only a couple of short-lived generations ago,
enduring tradition widely resists the notion that natural causes, disease,
accident or recklessness might be responsible for a death. Rather, bad
magic is the certain culprit.

“When people die, especially men, people start asking ‘Who’s behind it?’,
not ‘What’s behind it?’” says Dr Philip Gibbs, a longtime PNG resident,
anthropologist, sorcery specialist and Catholic priest.

Last year, a two-year investigation by the country’s Constitutional and
Law Reform Commission observed that the view that sorcery or witchcraft
must be to blame for sickness or early death is commonly held across PNG.

Many educated, city-dwelling Papua New Guineans also espouse some belief
in sorcery. But in the words of the editor of the national daily Post
Courier, Alexander Rheeney, city and country-folk alike overwhelmingly
“recoil in fear and disgust” at lynch-mobs pursuing payback, and at the
kind of extremist cruelty that Sister Gaudentia was about to witness.

Angela’s accusers — young men from another town, high on potent highlands
dope and “steam” (home-brewed hooch) — had come back for her. Sister
Gaudentia suspected the same mob had tortured a young woman she nursed a
few months earlier. She had dragged herself, “how … I don’t know”, says
the nun, into the clinic, her genitals burned and fused beyond functional
repair by the repeated intrusions of red-hot irons.

The concept of a serial-offending torture squad hunting down witches
doesn’t fit the picture anthropologists have assembled of the customs that
underwrite sorcery “pay-back” in parts of PNG. Attacks are, as a general
rule, the spontaneous act of a grieving family, inspired often by
vengeance, and sometimes by fear that evil magic will be exercised again.
But experts also concede there are caveats to every rule in PNG. One of
the most ethnically diverse landscapes in the world, PNG is endlessly
confounding to outsiders, and even as modern explorers strive to pin down
aspects of the old world, it changes before them.

Walne was accused of using sorcery to kill a young boy and hunted by her
husband's family. Narrowly escaping public execution, she is currently in
hiding.

As more reports of sorcery-related atrocities find their way into the PNG
media, United Nations’ forums, and human rights investigations, there are
concerns that the profile of this social terrorism is shifting. Ritual
attacks on accused sorcerers — historically brutal in some parts,
notoriously so in the punishing highlands — appear to have broken out of
traditional boundaries, and now crop up in communities where they have no
history.

Despite a lack of data and the suspicion that only a fraction of incidents
are ever reported, the 2012 Law Reform Commission examination of
sorcery-related attacks concluded that they have been rising since the
1980s. It estimated about 150 cases of violence and killings are occurring
each year in just one volatile province, Simbu — wild, prime coffee
country deep in the nation’s rugged spine. Figures vary enormously but
volumes of published reports by UN agencies, Amnesty International, Oxfam
and anthropologists provide unequivocal evidence that attacks on accused
sorcerers and witches — sometimes men, but most commonly women — are
frequent, ferocious and often fatal.

Australian National University anthropologist Dr Richard Eves is a PNG
specialist who is convening a conference on the issue in Canberra in June.
As he explains, the truism of anthropological literature is that the
thrall of sorcery and witchcraft over a society declines with modernity,
as occurred in Europe and North America. But right now in Melanesia, and
particularly in PNG, this seems not to be the case.

Instead reports indicate tradition has in places morphed into something
more malignant, sadistic and voyeuristic, stirred up by a potent brew of
booze and drugs; the angry despair of lost youth; upheaval of the social
order in the wake of rapid development and the super-charged resources
enterprise; the arrival of cash currency and the jealousies it invites;
rural desperation over broken roads; schools and health systems propelling
women out of customary silence and men, struggling to find their place in
this shifting landscape bitterly, often brutally, resentful.

“I have been in PNG since 1969,” says Sister Gaudentia. “We always had
sanguma, but not to the extreme, not like it is now.”

Gibbs, who has published many articles on the issue, agrees that attacks
have become more brutal. “It used to be that they would push someone over
a cliff, something like that. They still ended up dead, but it wasn’t the
torture, like now. This interrogation, this public stuff, with the kids
watching, it becomes a spectacle.”

On the first day of Angela’s agonies, the nun pleaded with the watching
police to intervene. Why would they and other community leaders not act?
Gibbs explains: “Even if they would want to stop the violence, they have
little power today in the face of a village mob — particularly when many
young men within the mob are affected by alcohol or drugs”.

These men call their gang “Dirty Dons 585” and admit to rapes and armed
robberies in the Port Moresby area. They say two-thirds of their victims
are women.

PNG’s police force is underpaid, under-resourced and under-trained. It’s
also notoriously corrupt and abusive. Many members subscribe to sorcery
belief and some may see the interrogation of women like Angela as
legitimate under custom, a view some argue is encouraged by the
controversial PNG Sorcery Act of 1971, which acknowledges the existence of
sorcery and criminalises both those who practice it and those who attack
people accused of sorcery.

On that opening day of her “trial”, Angela was tortured, humiliated and
interrogated; an absurd Monty Python-esque parody of prosecution in which
she was in one moment accused of causing the deaths, the next being asked
to give up the name of the real witch — “kolim nem, kolim nem [call the
name]”, the gang demanded. At one point, in wracked desperation, she
shouted out the name of another woman, but her accusers showed no
interest.

For reasons not clear, they let her go, and the next day Sister Gaudentia
heard she had been taken to a holding room at the police station,
apparently for her safety. The nun tried to see her but the room was
locked and no-one could locate the key. “I thought she was safe.” She
later learned that at some point the police had released Angela after her
attackers signed pledges to leave her alone.

It was lunchtime the next day when Sister heard the children’s chilling
chorus outside the clinic window. “I left the car up the road and then we
went into the village. At least we tried to go in,” the Sister recalls.
The crowd was so dense she couldn’t push through. “I went back to the car
and drove to the police station to report that they were torturing her
again. The police commander said, ‘We can’t do anything. They promised me
they wouldn’t.’”

Sister drove back, taking a priest with her. This time they fought their
way through. “There must have been 600 people watching; men, women and
children — a lot of them.”

Angela was naked, staked-out, spread-eagled on a rough frame before them,
a blindfold tied over her eyes, a fire burning in a nearby drum. Being
unable to see can only have inflated her terror, her sense of
powerlessness and the menace around her; breathing the smoke and feeling
the heat of the fire where the irons being used to burn her were warmed
until they glowed. Would she be cooked, on that fire? She must have known
it had happened to others before — and would soon infamously happen again,
the pictures finding their way around the world.

The photographs witnesses took of Angela’s torture are shocking, both for
the cruelty of the attackers and the torpid body-language of the
spectators. Stone-faced men and women and wide-eyed children huddle under
umbrellas, sheltering from the drenched highlands air as Angela writhes
against the tethers at her wrists and ankles, twisting her body away from
the length of hot iron which a young man aims at her genitals. [The
photograph of Angela accompanying this article, taken on the first day of
Angela’s torture, is confronting, but chosen as less humiliating and
dangerous than pictures taken on the second day which would identify key
individuals.]

Angela — a woman in her late 40s — is the mother of a small boy, says
Philip Gibbs, who later collected her testimony and that of witnesses to
her ordeal. Typical of the victims of sorcery-related attacks and killings
in the highlands, she had been existing on the margins of her community.
She had no husband or male family to protect her. Custom often requires
women to leave behind the safe enclave of their own place and family when
they marry. If their husband dies or leaves or abuses them, they find
themselves stranded on “foreign” soil. As Gibbs has documented in his
published work, which delves into the dynamics of accused and accusers,
“when a family, believing that death comes through human agency, looks for
a scapegoat to accuse, fingers will very often point at a woman without
influential brothers or strong sons”.

Sister Gaudentia shouted over Angela’s screams, part begging, part
ordering the interrogators she calls “the marijuana boys” to cease their
assaults. “They held me back, stopped me getting to her,” she says. When
Gibbs later investigated, he learned that the nun had put herself at dire
risk — the torturers had tried to burn her, too. It was perhaps only her
pale expat skin that saved her.

When there was nothing more she could do to stop Angela’s torment, the
Sister gathered her clinic staff around her and shouted out to the crowd.
“I called on the people. I asked, ‘Who here is a Catholic? Come, we will
pray the rosary.’

“And a lot of people came and prayed with me. We prayed the whole rosary.”
Angela’s suffering echoed around them through their invocation, the ritual
comforts of one belief system colliding with the atrocities of another.

“A man came from another village and drove us back to the police and we
pleaded with them again to come,” Sister recalls. She was still at the
station when Angela was cut down. By then there was heavy rain falling.
Perhaps the fire had gone out. Perhaps some of the sport had been
dampened. Perhaps police did intervene.

It was around 5pm when “the marijuana boys” let Angela go, more than four
hours after they began their assaults. When Angela’s elderly mother tried
to attend to her they set upon her too, breaking her leg and her pelvis.

Later a police car delivered Angela and her mother to Sister Gaudentia’s
clinic. “We treated them that night. People came to our house and wanted
us to send these women out, but we didn’t.”

Then the mob grew and began shouting and throwing stones on the clinic
roof, and Sister called the police, fearing the clinic would be burned
down. “This time a different policeman came, he was really concerned. We
had to agree to let the women go to the police cell for their own
protection. We took them food.”

With that officer’s help, they smuggled Angela and her mother away by car,
taking them a long way away, eventually finding them care in another
hospital. When their physical wounds were healed, she was relocated again.
She has now joined the ranks of sorcery survivors who are not only damaged
but forever displaced by their experiences, refugees within their own
country, forced away from the land many of them rely on for survival.

Dini was accused of using black magic to kill her son. His friends dragged
her to a pigsty, where she was tortured using bush knives and red-hot iron
bars.

LAST THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 7, Papua New Guineans woke to the headline “Burnt
Alive!” and pictures of a large crowd, including school children, watching
as flames engulfed the body of a young woman.

It happened in the busy, mercurial hub of Mount Hagen, smack in the heart
of the country. A 20-year-old mother of two, Kepari Leniata, had been
stripped, tortured, trussed, doused with petrol, thrown on a rubbish tip,
covered with tyres and set alight.

The killing was reportedly carried out by relatives of a six-year-old boy
who had just died in the local hospital. They seized a couple of women
they suspected of causing the death, among them Leniata, and soon
determined that she would be the scapegoat of their grief. Witnesses
claimed the crowd blocked police officers and firefighters who tried to
intervene.

The news provoked a statement of “deep concern” from the UN human rights
office and international media coverage. PNG Prime Minister Peter O’Neill
condemned the killing as a “despicable” and “barbaric” act. He said he had
instructed police to use all available manpower to bring the killers to
justice.

“It is reprehensible that women, the old, and the weak in our society,
should be targeted for alleged sorcery or wrongs that they actually have
nothing to do with,” said O’Neill. Similar sentiments resounded across
PNG’s always animated social media scene, and included a push for a
campaign to enlist Leniata’s name and legacy to rally momentum to address
endemic, epidemic violence against women.

Leniata’s death and the anguish it provoked reprised a very similar
scenario only two years ago, also on a rubbish tip in Mount Hagen, when an
unidentified young woman — according to some reports, possibly as young as
16 — was tied at the stake and burned. But this time there were pictures.
The horror of the act, and the passivity of the watching crowd, sent
shockwaves across the country.

As the Post Courier’s Rheeney editorialised, the failure of witnesses to
intervene, “to stop and condemn the murderers’ actions, points to a bigger
danger of ordinary Papua New Guineans accepting this callous killing as
normal and this methodology of dispensing justice as acceptable.
Dini shows wounds she received after she was accused of using sorcery to
kill her own son.

“Respect for the rule of law and the rights of others are pillars of a
modern-day democracy, and we would like to think PNG falls under this
category,” he wrote. Leniata’s murder raised questions, he noted, about
whether “we believe that justice is dispensed in a legally constituted
court of law and not a kangaroo court chaired by individuals misled by
superstition and trickery”.

The earlier witch-burning at Mount Hagen, in January 2009, had been the
catalyst for the Government’s directive to the PNG Constitutional and Law
Reform Commission to review sorcery violence and the legal issues around
it. Community distress had peaked following a series of similar reports,
including that people accused of sorcery had been roasted over slow fire,
nailed to crosses, hung in public places and beaten to death, locked
inside homes and set alight, weighted with stones and thrown into rivers,
and hacked to death with machetes.

Now Rheeney’s editorial echoed the view of many PNG commentators and
international human-rights groups when it urged the Government to at least
pursue one powerful, urgent measure and fast-track the key recommendation
to emerge from the review: repeal the Sorcery Act.

The 1971 Act, in its preamble, acknowledges “widespread belief throughout
the country that there is such a thing as sorcery, and sorcerers have
extra-ordinary powers that can be used sometimes for good purposes but
more often bad ones”. It distinguishes “innocent sorcery”, defined as
protective and curative, from “forbidden sorcery” — everything else.

The Act, the review explains, was largely aimed at recognising the reality
of citizens’ concerns and to provide a mechanism for them to have an
accused sorcerer dealt with by the courts rather than taking the law into
their own hands. Extensive consultations out in the PNG provinces over the
past two years revealed that many communities still wanted the law to
recognise that sorcery was real and active, and to provide systems to
prosecute and punish sorcerers and their accomplices.

As the late Sir Buri Kidu, PNG’s first national Chief Justice, observed in
a judgment in 1980, “in many communities in Papua New Guinea belief in
sorcery and its powers is very strong and we cannot brush it aside. My own
people believe it and greater fear is caused by such belief.” (His
Australian-born widow — Dame Carol Kidu, for many years the only woman in
the PNG Parliament until her recent retirement — has recounted the story
that every night of her young married life in the family’s village home,
Buri’s mother would pull the shutters to keep out what in her language
they called the “vada”, only to have Buri get up in the small hours and
open them again.)

Rasta was accused of sorcery by people in her village after the death of a
young man in 2003. She was set upon by a crowd at his funeral, beaten and
strangled until she escaped. She lost her hand in the attack.

The review concluded that the Sorcery Act had plainly not prevented bad
magic, and nor had it punished practitioners. What it had done was provide
legal refuge for murderers and vigilantes to argue sorcery as a mitigating
factor, allowing self-styled witch-killers — and comparatively few have
even been prosecuted — to get off with light sentences.

After examining various options for amending the Act, the Commission has
recommended its repeal, but with provision for village courts to continue
to deal with sorcery disputes. It has drafted a Bill to that effect that
commission secretary, Dr Eric Kwa, hopes will go before the PNG Parliament
in the next few months.

“I’m really appalled by the [latest] reports,” Kwa told The Global Mail.
“It is really sickening that Papua New Guineans are not able to stand up
for the weak and vulnerable to oppose this evil in our society. We hope
that with the repeal of the Sorcery Act [if the recommendation is
supported], the normal criminal liabilities will apply in terms of serious
crimes such as the one we read of today.”

Many commentators argue it will take much more than a change in
legislation to achieve any meaningful inroads against the violence.
Anthropologist Philip Gibbs, whose archive of work was heavily drawn on by
the Law Reform Commission review, is one of them.

At the national level he urges the Government to also set up a PNG
human-rights council — a measure promised in the past — and to consider
establishing special police task forces to pursue killers. Human rights
and UN agencies have repeatedly slammed PNG police for failing to
intervene to stop attacks or to arrest suspects. But they also recognise
the besieged force requires monumental investment in training, resources
and equipment if it is to be effective.

As one 2011 UN report summarised, the PNG constabulary lacks everything
from adequate pay, uniforms and accommodation to leadership. As a
consequence, corruption is rife and morale poor. Police have almost no
intelligence-gathering capacity. The likelihood of criminals being caught
has been estimated at less than 3 per cent.

Even assuming the political will emerges to invest in stronger policing
and community protection, it will be years before the terrorism fades in
communities like Simbu, an epicentre for violence. Aid and development
agencies have also been reluctant to touch the issue, says Richard Eves.
“For many years religion was a taboo for donor agencies. Because it is so
cultural and so complex, it’s not easy to come up with projects to address
it.”

In the meantime concerned citizens, local human-rights activists and
churches — deeply engaged with their congregations, and often the only
functional institutions in sight — are devising grassroots interventions,
some of them with substantial effect, according to Gibbs.

Rasta had one hand severed and the other mutilated by the frenzied crowd.

One such program is championed by Bishop Anton Bal, the Catholic bishop of
Kundiawa, the capital of Simbu. Born and raised in the province’s remote
south, he’s enlisting his networks and his understanding of the culture to
find ways to infiltrate and change thinking. Working with him is
Polish-born surgeon and priest Father Jan Jaworski, whose work in the
community as a healer of body and soul over more than 25 years resonates
widely, earning authority.

Through its close connections to families the diocese is able to measure
the reverberating damage from sorcery violence. The casualties number many
more than the dead. The bishop’s office has estimated that as much as 10
to 15 per cent of the population have been displaced by fallout from
accusations and attacks, many of them banished, their homes and sustaining
gardens destroyed.

Bishop Bal argues that the catch-22 with sorcery is that the more it’s
talked about, the greater its power and allure. So his programs include
training up networks of local parish volunteers as a kind of resistance
movement. Operatives deflect and douse conversations about blame as soon
as a death in the community occurs. They go to the funeral and when
someone brings up the question of sanguma they shift the topic — talk
about the weather, shut it down. Or raise the alarm.

Kundiawa is in name a provincial capital, but in reality a pit stop on the
nation’s only east-west thoroughfare, the Highlands Highway, which is
heavily trafficked and rapidly eroding under the wheels of fortified
convoys running to and from mine sites. It’s also the trading post and
heart of a far-flung society of hamlets sprinkled through some of PNG’s
steepest, tallest, harshest and lushest ranges.

At Kundiawa Hospital, which is distinguished by the proud efforts of its
staff and community as something of a showpiece within PNG’s weary
provincial hospital network, Jaworski sees patients with sorcery-related
trauma being admitted at least a couple of times a week. “[They’re]
usually women, but not only. It’s the tip of the iceberg. It is still very
strong [the belief]. It is part of the system of justice.” After so many
years at sanguma ‘Ground Zero’, there’s not much that shocks him.

Part of his practice is to use the influence he has gained to interrupt
the cycle of accusation and prosecution, to go to the grieving family and
explain medical cause of death whenever he has the opportunity, and pray
that his story finds its way onto the bush telegraph and around the
district.

Gimu Jack, from Yamox Village in the Eastern Highlands. She lost her
finger when her husband attacked her with an ax.

Not long ago the brother of a local politician died. When Jaworski got
word that some 300 family members had gathered and were milling about
looking for someone to blame, he went and confronted the mob. “I told them
[his death] was his own responsibility. He was a fat man. He didn’t look
after himself. Sometimes you have to put the responsibility on the person
who has gone, or it hurts someone else.”

On another occasion he confronted the family of a young woman who had died
of HIV/AIDS. When she was still a girl the family had given her to an
older man in the community. She became his third wife, and then she became
infected and sickened, leaving behind a young baby. “I told them ‘It is
your fault she died — not sanguma. You sold her as a third wife.’ I wanted
to burden them with the responsibility, otherwise they will just accuse
someone else.

“The uncle stood up and said, ‘Thank you for providing the explanation —
we will not go for sanguma’. It was a hard thing for the family to hear’ —
and, the priest admits, a nerve-wracking thing to say to a riled Simbu
family — “but otherwise some innocent will be tortured and killed.”

Anecdotal testimony, discreetly shared, points to a substantial and
growing underground movement of self-proclaimed human-rights defenders
working within communities to identify and hide people who are at risk of
attack, or who have survived. In some of the most fraught parts of the
highlands aid agency Oxfam engages in a range of programs that support
some of those evolving networks.

But people operate in this sphere do so at some personal risk. In a
locally infamous case in 2005 highlighted by the UN Office of the High
Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), Anna Benny, a woman in Goroka who
had a reputation for fearless work protecting and supporting rape victims,
tried to defend her sister-in-law from allegations of sorcery. Both women
were killed. Police took no action.Emate Sekue was accused of using
sorcery to kill her husband. She survived the brutal attack that followed,
but has to pay for her own treatment, as the government offers neither
support programs nor shelters.

In his interviews surveying survivors of sorcery-violence, including
Angela — the woman likely rescued by the intervention of Sister Gaudentia
and some heavy rain — Philip Gibbs identifies a consistent, fortifying
thread. Those victims who lived to tell the tale owe their lives either to
individual police members or to a strong church leader who intervened for
them.

“In effect it means that, if sufficiently motivated to act, the power of
the police and civil authorities, or the power of the church, can be
enough to defend a person who is otherwise powerless.”

In particular the angry frustrations of young men, and for which there are
no easy remedies. “Today 70 to 90 per cent of young people are unemployed.
They went to school, but there is no future for them. They don’t fit back
in their gardens and their villages.” They are without prospects in the
new world, and without skills for the old one.

On bleaker mornings, navigating broken roads strewn with rocks from a
night of fighting, or stitching up the casualties in the operating
theatre, Jaworski worries that the rage of young men will one day propel
the community back to the tumbuna (the time of the ancestors).

“I hope I am a wrong prophet.”

BEAR BILE MOTHER KILLS HER OWN BABY & HERSELF FROM LIFETIME OF TORTURE
CHINESE KEEP BEARS IN TINY CAGES, PUT HOLES IN THEIR STOMACHS & TORTURE
THEM DAILY SO CHINESE MORONS CAN CURE THEMSELVES OF THEIR SHIT

The Chinese media has reported on an extraordinary account of a mother
bear saving her cub from a life of torture by strangling it and then
killing itself.

The bears were kept in a farm located in a remote area in the North-West
of China. The bears on the farm had their gall bladders milked daily for
'bear bile,' which is used as a remedy in Traditional Chinese Medicine
(TCM).

It was reported that the bears are kept in tiny cages known as 'crush
cages', as the bears have no room to manoeuvre and are literally crushed.

The bile is harvested by making a permanent hole or fistula in the bears'
abdomen and gall bladder.

As the hole is never closed, the animals are suspect to various infections
and diseases including tumours, cancers and death from peritonitis.

The bears are fitted with an iron vest, as they often try to kill
themselves by hitting their stomach as they are unable to bear the pain.

A person who was on the farm in place of a friend witnessed the procedures
and told Reminbao.com that they were inhumane.

The witness also claimed that a mother bear broke out its cage when it
heard its cub howl in fear before a worker punctured its stomach to milk
the bile.

The workers ran away in fear when they saw the mother bear rushing to its
cub's side.

Unable to free the cub from its restraints, the mother hugged the cub and
eventually strangled it.

It then dropped the cub and ran head-first into a wall, killing itself.

Many TCM practitioners have denounced the use of bear bile in their
treatment as there are cheaper herbs and synthetics that can be used in
its place.

Bear bile is traditionally used to remove 'heat' from the body as well as
treat high fever, liver ailments and sore eyes.

RASA ASKS QUESTIONS OF WILLIAM re. MALE VIOLENCE

I have my own theory on this, which I have written about many times. Most
male animals have a strong instinct to compete with each other for
dominance and for access to females. So we find animals like bulls, stags
and rams fight each other every spring for this. There is no sense of
fairness in this, "the winner takes it all" and the losers get nothing.

Men are similar but men fight each other with spears, swords, rifles,
machine guns, bombs, rocket and nuclear weapons. So it is men's
competitive and aggressive instincts that drive them to be like this.

Females on the other hand have a powerful maternal and nurturing instinct.
Most female animals want to have young and care for them until they are
able to look after themselves. This is also true of women who all have a
desire to love and care for others.
As we can see, in a world ruled by men, their competitive and aggressive
instincts are encouraged and exaggerated until we have wars and genocide.
These instincts also create poverty, as the rich compete with the poor for
wealth and power and keep it all for themselves. Like a alpha stag who
will keep all the females for himself. Men also compete with women for
wealth and power and this is why women end up having less than men in
patriarchal societies.

While men continue to rule the world we will always have war and poverty.
The only way out of this is to allow caring and nurturing women to rule
instead. So they can curb men's aggressive instincts, and rule without war
and poverty.

The idea of a matriarchal society will be popular with both men and women,
because many men do not want to fight in wars, and are concerned with
things like poverty. The only barrier to matriarchy is that the general
public do not know there is an alternative to patriarchy and that is women
ruling the world, instead of men.

WOMEN CANNOT – TO DO ALL THIS VIOLENCE?

STEVE ANDREWS HAS REMARKED AT THE CRUELTY OF BOY CHILDREN, WHO START

I KNOW MEN ARE BRAINWASHED INTO MORE EVIL.  HOW MUCH OF THIS IS INBORN,
HOW MUCH BRAINWASHED?

I NEED TO STUDY KILLOLOGY BUT HAVE BEEN DRAGGING MY HEELS DUE TO TRYING TO

Diaz also mentioned Lanza’s love of video games. “He caught on to video
games very fast. I remember playing Warcraft 3 with him, he enjoyed
playing the violent game,s but I never really imagined Adam wanting to
hold a gun, at one point he was a good kid. The events he did that day may
have been evil, but before then he was just another kid.” Take a look at
the list of games that Lanza frequently played with his school mates
below.

THIS AD KEEPS COMING UP ON MY FB:
No games. Just real guys looking for a faithful woman to take care of.
Click and go to SeniorsMeet to see Pics of local men.

Translation by RASA:  Real guys looking 4 faithful, dumb women who will
serve them, wait on them, take care of them day by day & when they get
sick (men over 50 R always sick) So they can get CHEAP LABOR instead of
paying for a nurse.  They also want U to sukk their dikk after they take
Viagara, then lay there as they use U as the garbage disposal 4 sperm,
maybe pick up dis eeses from the local crack hoe they went to see.  You
will need to prepare their meals, feed them, wash dishes & laundry, clean
house etc.

U will also have to listen to their useless banter about sports, which
they watch incessantly, fantasizing they R the heroes, & other garbage
they think about.  They have no mental ability for anything past 12 year
old status, so the only conversation U will get is idiotic.  They will
never empathize or worry about Ur important issues like relationship stuff
or world problems, animal rights – God – Nothing that has any meaning,
because they have no meaning.

What do U get out of it?  They might share some of their money with U if
Ur lucky.  But U will have a lot more, & peace of mind, if U can take care
of yourself by work or getting some kind of benefits – If left alone U’ll
be able to use Ur mind for God or self, or some constructive stuff instead
of always having to focus Ur time, energy & strength on numnuts needs.

BTW  numnuts seniors looking for faithful?  If he ever finds a YOUNG WOMAN
who wants him, no matter what U have done 4 him, he will drop U like a hot
potato & throw U in the trash like last week’s pizza, case closed.

WILLIAM BOND ON MEN’S VIOLENCE—HE DECLARES EMPOWERING WOMEN IS THE BEST
SOLUTION:

It is very hard to know how much men's violence is down to their inherent
behaviour and how much is down to social conditioning. Also, all men are
all different anyway, so it means some men will be more inherently violent
than other men.

What we can say about men is that they can be easily brainwashed into
becoming violent. We can see this with Japanese men. The crime rate in
Japan is one of he lowest in the world, (it is mostly men who commit
crime). Yet in World War Two the Japanese military trained their soldiers
to be even more brutal than either German or Russian troops.

The point is that women do have a very powerful maternal instinct and
because of this most women do not have an option, of not being caring of
others. We must remember that in a patriarchal society, women are far more
brutalised than what men are, but women on the whole, are no where near as
violent as what men are.

Because men's behaviour is not so controlled by a maternal instinct they
have a far bigger range of behaviours. This means men can be trained to be
cruel and sadistic killers or be trained to be loving and caring people.
Whereas, it is a lot harder to train women into becoming brutal killers
and so you can only do this with a small minority of women.

The only way we can find out how much men's behaviour is down to nature or
nurture, is if you had a patriarchal and matriarchal society living side
by side. Then the behaviour of men in both societies can be compared. But
as all societies in the world are patriarchal, it is hard to compare men's
behaviour in different societies. All we can say is that war and poverty
do seem to increase men's violence. There is a big difference in men's
violence between the USA and Canada. This is because the USA has greater
poverty as well as it's men are fighting wars all over the world.
Switzerland also has one of the lowest crime rates in the world, and they
haven't fought a war since the 19th century, and poverty has been nearly
eliminated there.

The problem is that the more extreme patriarchy becomes the more it tend
to increase wars and poverty, making men even more violent. So patriarchy
seems to feed on itself. This is why empowering women is the best way to
overcome male violence. So women have the power and authority to train
their sons and partners into becoming caring and loving people.
