You can’t tell the woman from the man is a very straightforward (i.e., like a little baby could understand it) reference to the blurring of the lines in Babylon society between the roles of men and women. Women do all the things that men do and they are taught that they must be able to compete equally with men in all areas. Their sacred role as mothers and nurturers of the next generation is demeaned and disparaged by Babylon as a lack of accomplishment and a form of subjugation. Their role in the family as a loyal supporter of the husband & father is disparaged as a form of servitude, exploitation & subjugation. All of this quite simply works toward the Devil’s goal of undermining the love between men & women, the love of families, and, ultimately, the procreation of human life. The midnight ravers are the people who, out of sight & earshot of Babylon while hidden in the darkness of the midnight hour, contemplate the Truth of what Babylon is and how it separates us from reality and one another. They renew their energy to continue the struggle against the Babylon System. |
