Japanese Cartoon - Sacred Innocence Lost
February 10, 2020
I watched "My Neighbor Totoro" again last night and was struck by the fact that there was no evil in this world. Even the monsters were benign. It was a fresh reminder that most entertainment is dedicated to inducting us into a satanic cult by showcasing and promoting all our worst instincts and vices.
This film reminded me that a child's innocence is sacred and priceless. This innocence is being destroyed by the new sex education curriculum which teaches children about intercourse and homosexuality even before they reach puberty. Clearly, sex is used to despoil and debauch, not just children but society in general. It reduces all relationships to the level of sexual exploitation. This is more evidence that society is controlled by Satanists, who no longer even think it necessary to hide. We are under occult attack yet are too compromised to even recognize that we are being dehumanized--turned into demons.
"Why is it that they can impose immorality on us, but we can't impose morality on them?"

Recently my wife introduced me to a Japanese animated feature called "My Neighbor Totoro."
Although directed at children, this movie reminded me of the power of art to reassure, refresh and inspire. It was a reminder of what we are being denied.
Written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki (left) in 1988, the film describes the interaction between two sisters, Satsuki and Mei, and "wood spirits" in a rural area near Tokyo in 1957.
Many things about this picture amazed me. I can't remember when I have last seen innocence portrayed. These children are innocent, especially the youngest, Mei. The child's wide-ranging emotional reactions deftly conveyed in her facial expressions reminded me that art makes us more human by revealing what is universally human. The feelings of a child resonated in me.
Rarely do I see recognizable human emotions portrayed in the movies--loss, yearning, hope, love. I'd list more but I have forgotten what they are. I have been brutalized and become jaded.
The girls' father, Mr. Kusukabe, an archeology professor, is acting as a single father. Mrs. Kusukabe is in the hospital. I loved the way this father treated his children, with such patience and respect. I loved the world they inhabited, where he could bathe naked with his two girls without neighbors snooping and Family Services breaking down the door.
This world is innocent. The culture is intact. People know the difference between what is healthy and what is sick and evil. .
When Mei sets out alone to visit her mother, we don't have to worry about her being abducted or sexually molested. When Satsuki goes to find her, everyone is courteous, concerned and helpful. Despite what Japan went through in the last war, the culture remained intact.
Satsuki calls upon the wood spirit Totoro for help. In turn, he enlists a giant cat (left) who doubles as a bus. I loved that these creatures were benign. There was no sense of menace.
Compare this with the trauma or filth found in many children's movies. Take Bambi where the mother is killed by hunters or Finding Nemo where his family is eaten by a shark. Madagascar is full of homosexual references.
If we want a healthy society, the mass media has to uphold healthy values. Call me Ayatollah, but I would ban porn, depravity and violence. Why is it that they can impose immorality on us, but we can't impose morality on them?
We have been brainwashed to reject the notion of Satan and Satanism, but our society is satanically possessed. You can see it in the obsession with sex and money and the acceptance of depravity, obscenity and violence. This is not accidental. It is the deliberate policy of the Illuminati, a satanic cult that controls the mass media and much more.
Even the Internet has become a source of irritation. I spend too much time reading doom and gloom, and not enough being inspired by the free music or beautiful pictures on Flickr.
A FM-radio jazz announcer used to sign off with the words: "Think nice thoughts." That's half the battle to saving our souls. It's all in where we focus our attention.
I was amazed by how much "My Neighbor Totoro" invigorated me. I felt cleansed and uplifted. It reminded me that my soul needs nourishment, not just mind and stomach.

Don't forget the terrifying "hell fire" sequence in Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame or the inspiring concept in Brave of a loving mother who gets turned into a bear by a witch and spends half the movie roaring and threatening to kill (and eat?) her little girl. Great fare for the kiddies!
It's time for parents to face the fact that they have been had by hype and deception to harm their children's natural sense of security, going right back to the woodsman taking Snow White into the forest to kill her. What a concept to instil in an innocent mind! But it's undoubtedly intended as preparation for the finance-generated insecurity the little ones will be expected to endure, despite physical super-abundance being all around them, in adult life.
Matt said (November 5, 2015):
. It was nice to read your article about the Japanese cartoon you enjoyed it. The Japanese are another culture that's being eradicated from this demonic conspiracy today though. They were once a people that lived by strict moral principles. They called it 'Bushido'. Obviously it wasn't at the standard of pure Catholicism, but it did have enough truth to create a strong people and culture that cared about integrity and virtue. Today the Japanese are as heavily into pornography as Europeans, and as such their child birth rate is among the very lowest in the world at 1.4 children per woman. It is easy to get bogged down in the cesspool this world is sinking into. I often do to be honest. It weights heavily on my soul. But the Bible does speak of the peace that surpasses all understanding, and It also gives 'Comforter' as one of the names of the Holy Ghost.
Frankly, I think it's healthy to struggle with the realities this world is facing and the increasing ignorance that's deepening in the people and communities around us. It shows our eyes AND hearts are open. It means we 'care'. But at the same time it's critically important to keep turning to God for comfort in our prayers, actions, hopes, dreams, and faith.
When it's all said and done maintaining the integrity and purity of ones soul is what matters most Henry:
Matthew 16:26:
For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss of his own soul? Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?
