The ongoing battle between the two civilizations—the Christian, which elevates man to the supernatural order, and the modern, which imprisons him in naturalism—is not waged only in parliaments, academies, or on battlefields, but, first and foremost, within the family (Delassus, 1910). The family, as the fundamental cell of Christian society, represents the first and most robust bulwark against revolutionary dissolution. It is within the family that the truths of faith, the principles of morality, and the notions of authority and sacrifice are transmitted from generation to generation. Within this institution, the woman occupies the position of the heart and educational center. Her mission is not limited to the generation of offspring but extends to the formation of souls, being the first guardian of faith and morals. For this reason, the anti-Christian conspiracy, in its destructive logic, has identified woman as the strategic target par excellence. To demolish the edifice of Christendom, it is imperative to undermine its foundations; to poison society, it is first necessary to corrupt the source from which it drinks its moral life.
📜 The Explicit Plan of Corruption
The thesis that feminine corruption is a deliberate project is not based on mere conjecture but on documents that reveal the strategy of the secret societies. One of the instructions of the High Lodge, dating from the 19th century, is explicit in its design: "To crush Catholicism, one must begin by suppressing woman... since we cannot suppress woman, let us corrupt her along with the Church. Corruptio optimi pessima. The goal is beautiful enough to tempt men like us... The best dagger to strike the Church in the heart is corruption. To work, then, until the end!" (Delassus, 1910).
This directive reveals the depth of the plan. It is not a crude and direct attack, but a subtle and perverse infiltration. The strategy consists in "popularizing vice in the multitudes," causing them to "breathe it in through the five senses, to become saturated with it." The final goal, as confessed by the conspirators themselves, is to "form vicious hearts" so that, consequently, "there will be no more Catholics" (Delassus, 1910). The woman, through her determining influence on customs and childhood education, becomes the main vector for this dissemination of vice. By stripping her of pudency, modesty, and the virtues that adorn her sex, the sect transforms her from the sanctuary of the family into an agent of its dissolution.
🛡️ The Woman as Guardian of Tradition and Faith
Christian civilization rests on the continuous transmission of a spiritual heritage. This transmission occurs, primarily, in the home, through maternal education. The virtues of piety, obedience, charity, and sacrifice are, indeed, "transmitted from the heart of a mother to the heart of a son." The Christian mother is the first catechist, the one who teaches how to make the sign of the cross, to pray, and to love God. It is she who lays the foundations of moral life upon which the Church and society can later build.
The modern conspiracy has perfectly understood this mechanism. To attack woman, therefore, means to cut the root of Christian education. A mother imbued with the spirit of naturalism, who seeks only earthly pleasure, who despises sacrifice, and ridicules purity, can only produce children in her own image: selfish, materialistic, and rebellious against all authority, be it paternal, civil, or divine (Delassus, 1910). Thus, feminine corruption ensures that the very source of social regeneration runs dry, producing an uprooted generation, ready to embrace the revolutionary utopia of a society without God and without law.
⛓️ From "Emancipation" to Social Dissolution
One of the most effective artifices employed by the sect to achieve its ends is the promotion of a "false feminine emancipation." Under the banner of a supposed "freedom," what is preached is liberation not from injustice, but from duty. The woman is "emancipated" from her mission as a wife and mother, from her vocation to sacrifice, and from her dignity as guardian of the home. In return, she is offered the mirage of absolute independence, limitless pleasure, and rivalry with man (Delassus, 1910).
This "emancipation" is, in truth, the most degrading of servitudes. By abandoning the home, woman finds not freedom, but the slavery of salaried work and unfair competition in a world shaped by masculine values. By rejecting motherhood, she deprives herself of her highest glory. By despising pudency, she lowers herself to the condition of a mere object of pleasure. This process, presented as "progress," is nothing more than a return to pagan barbarism, where woman was either a slave or an instrument of lust. The destruction of pudency and the encouragement of family dissolution are direct consequences of this subversion, which ultimately aims at the atomization of society, leaving individuals isolated and defenseless before the centralizing power of the revolutionary State (Delassus, 1910).
⚔️ Conclusion: The Battle for the Soul of Society
In short, the condition of woman is the barometer that measures the moral health of a civilization. Christendom flourished when the dignity of woman was elevated to its highest expression in the figure of the Most Holy Virgin, a model of purity, sacrifice, and spiritual motherhood. Conversely, modern civilization, heir to the pagan Renaissance and the Revolution, systematically attacks this model, for it knows that by corrupting woman, it corrupts the family, and by corrupting the family, it deals a death blow to the entire Christian social order.
The war waged against woman is, therefore, not an isolated or accidental phenomenon. It is the methodical execution of an ancient and well-articulated plan, whose purpose is the complete eradication of Christ's influence on society. To recognize this strategy is the first step to combating it and to working for the restoration of true feminine dignity, which is the indispensable foundation for the reconstruction of a truly human and Christian society (Delassus, 1910).
