Here is a couple of quotes from the interview for Regina
Magazine
The
Frankfurt School and Critical Theory.
THE FRANKFURT SCHOOL KNEW THAT IN ORDER TO
CHANGE SOCIETY THEY NEEDED TO UNDERMINE CHRISTIANITY and they developed what is
known as Critical Theory. Critical
Theory drew upon Marxism and used the media to undermine virtually all the
building blocks of western society, especially Christianity and the family. The
Catholic Church had the Vatican II document Inter Mirifica as a blue print on
how to use the latest media; unfortunately many of the hierarchy do not appear
to have read Inter Mirifica and many Catholics seem to follow something like a
nebulous ‘spirit of Vatican II’ which sometime seems little different from Critical
Theory.”
If a
script doesn’t have a ‘kickass’ girl as a leading lady then it will
not make it off the page.
‘Critical Theory’ has taken over the mind
set of Hollywood where traditional marriage is disparaged, plots are contrived
to feminise men and masculinise women,
and if a script doesn’t have a ‘kickass’ girl as a leading lady then
sometimes it will not make it off the page. It can make men feel that as we are
no longer needed or wanted to protect our wives and children. Women can do it
all for themselves, so men can just stay home have a beer and watch the
football on TV or be patted on the head and sent out to play, and many do just
this. However, I firmly believe it is possible that by the use of the Gospel and
the traditions of the Church we can turn Critical Theory on its head. Take any
plot and put a faithful Catholic in there and see what happens.
