>>>>>"Original Sin" has no explanatory power. You refuse to consider conditions in which what you refer to as Original Sin can flourish and other, more salutary conditions where it is minimized.<<<<

It most certainly explains why no man can be trusted to rule over his fellow man, no matter how much YOU and other people pushers think you can "perfect" human beings with the "correct" (nontraditional) parenting "style". Just as dumbing down the masses with "schooling" has deformed them intellectually, YOU seek to turn them into docile "nonviolent" sheep....using state aggression (violence) which I'm SURE will eventually "wither away".

>>>>>>Further, since Lloyd deMause is an advocate of a stateless society, he hardly qualifies as a social engineer by any definition except your own.<<<

???Odd, since he was a pioneer of your pet theory of blaming parenting for flawed human nature. Of course mainstreaming these theories is not any attempt to re-engineer "society" to yours and his specs. My question is what makes this guy any more of an authority than anyone else.

>>>>>>I'm sure you prefer Hoppe's social engineering, banishing homosexuals from society, to any wisdom Mitch Hall, Riane Eisler or Lloyd deMause might advocate.<<<<<

??? Why shouldn't Hoppe be allowed to associate with whoever he wants and not associate with those he prefers not to? Why must people be forced to associate with those they do not agree with or like? What makes FORCED association preferable? Could that possibly lead to...violence? I'm not seeing any wisdom emanating from your rogues gallery of change agents.
