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&#8211;turned into demons.<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5>&#8220;Why is it that\u00a0<em>they<\/em>\u00a0can impose immorality on us, but\u00a0<em>we<\/em>\u00a0can&#8217;t impose\u00a0<em>morality<\/em>\u00a0on them?&#8221;<\/h5>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>by Henry Makow Ph.D. &#8212; <\/strong><em>(Updated from June 29, 2010)<\/em><\/h2>\n<h5><strong>Recently <\/strong>my wife introduced me to a Japanese animated feature called <em>&#8220;My Neighbor Totoro.&#8221; <\/em><\/h5>\n<h5>Although directed at children, this movie reminded me of the power of art to reassure, refresh and inspire.

I can&#8217;t remember when I have last seen innocence portrayed. These children are innocent, especially the youngest, Mei.
