The dangers of rigid thinking.
Oct. 4th, 2012 07:25 pmI read recently in one of Robert Anton Wilson's books (Cosmic Trigger III) that some feminists actually believe that Beethoven's 9th symphony is a hymn to rape. This made me think back to the "all men are rapists" Belief System (BS). Because previous parts of the book had been talking about conspiracy theories, I had this thought:
Feminists of that kind are a patriarchal conspiracy to make feminism look bad!
Now, I don't know whether or not I really believe that, per se, but I think this is a good example of how rigid/fundamentalist modeltheism reflects poorly on the model the zealot has so much zeal for.
