. . . [I]ndustry turned "the worker" into "the tool," by getting rid of the human being. Thus monastic discipline, the Christian practice and urge to "free" the spirit by subjugating the body, was institutionalized throughout the Western world. And thus it led directly to the mechanization of the body, the human being turned into an appendage of the machine, a servomechanism, at work, play, love, and war. The spirit was never "freed" in this process, needless to say; it continues to share, with the body, in what Foucault calls "a subjection that has never reached its limit." It has never reached its limit because the exercise of subjugation itself—the chronic submission of the human to the system and mechanism of such discipline—has become a function of profit, i.e., of world power.
The "Protestant spirit" added greatly to this process by rationalizing worldly profit as a function of Christian spirit. The fundamentalist-Protestant tautology that "wealth is a sign of God's favor because God wants you to be rich" is a perfect machine: While it grinds out "the profits of morality" for the many, it gathers in "the morality of profits" for the few; and thus Christian capitalism, where God becomes a kind of shrewd world banker in the sky, exchanging souls for dollars, and dollars for souls . . . at a terrible rate of exchange.

Hamas supporters showed up in droves for a riot organized by radical hate group WOL Palestine in lower Manhattan today.
Israel supporters showed up to peacefully counterprotest, carrying Israeli and American flags. One of their American flags was set on fire by a Hamas supporter; the man holding the flag nearly got burned. As the flag burned, a masked terror supporter yelled “Death to America!” Several members of the pro-Hamas crowd echoed his cry.
If it wasn’t abundantly clear by now, these terror supporters don’t just want to destroy Israel. They want to tear down the entire Western world.
This isn't only about Israel anymore. These crazed terrorists want to destroy everything.
Believe them when they tell you who they are and what they're up to.
