In the Name of The Father, and of The Son and of The Holy Spirit, Amen.

The dissolution that characterized the 1960s in Europe and the Americas started with Pierre Boulez’ attack on Arnold Schoenberg, in the form of a notoriously nasty obituary dated 1952 and titled Schoenberg Est Mort!.

The dissolution was made irrevocable by Harvey Cox’s attack on Paul Tillich, in the form of a peevish, bumptious writing dated 1965 and titled The Secular City.

Gide, Satre, Genet, Cocteau, Kerouac and Ginsberg and their orbit of queers are often credited with that dissolution. But that orbit, which generated Pol Pot, comprised merely intellectual and not cultural and moral forces. Queering is a type of masturbation, unproductive.

Boulez (Once the past has been gotten out of the way, one need think only of oneself.) and Cox (paraphrasing from memory: Tillich is old and out of date and unworthy of attention.) were and remain cultural and moral foces, and specifically, forces of anti/counter-culture and anti/counter-morality.  Morbid misanthropes.  Their famous efforts at self-elevation through attack on culture and morality creators, Schoenberg and Tillich — neither of whom was queer, for, queers, by the nature of their addiction, cannot create — began and lent confirming pulse to the dissolution that characterized the 1960s in Europe and the Americas.

That dissolution persists in the religion, humanities and journalism departments of the European and American systems of education. George Soros is its currently most monied inciter. The antidote to Boulez was Glenn Gould and the antidote to Cox was Joseph Ratzinger. The antidote to dissolution in general is West Point and our United States Army.

Update I: Harvey Cox powerfully pushed the dissolution started by Boulez.
