Herman Cain. Joe Paterno. The Catholic church. Politics. Sports. Religion.

Connected by their positions of power, they are all guilty of using that power to allow and cover up the sexual abuse of children and women.

This is the way the world has been for a long time, it’s just more visible now. And it’s almost always men who are involved. The running of our governments, sports, and religions ought not to be guided by the same rules as a Wall St. corporation, out to accumulate great wealth, power, and control. Is it any surprise the major Wall St. players are primarily men?

Women don’t generally behave this way.  They don’t make war on each other or abuse children, at least not nearly as often. They tend to talk things out, like reasonable human beings. Perhaps a guideline for better politics, sports, and religion is to embrace those qualities we value in women, their ability to nurture, to bring life into the world and care for it.

I think we’re flushing this bad stuff out of our system in a big way now, cleansing ourselves from a toxic nightmare of child abuse, subjugation of women, and rape of the environment. As this happens, if more men embrace the principles of the divine feminine instead of making war on them, these abuses of power may finally end.
