The left - right paradigm is only for the common folks .. the oligarchs are neither and/or both ... depending on the audience.
But mans thinking was not always that way. And not that many of past civilizations were good in Gods eye because he told Abram get ye out of Ur as we remember but the Sumerians for example saw dimensional perception that had them seeing their Gods with a mans head,wings the body of an Ox with five legs instead of four. Many of the Minoans pottery art depicts mis-shaped men and women or octopus,dolphins, birds among others. Several times I have ask people I've known about what they saw in the multiple images of Minoan women with their breast exposed and most saw it as perversion but to the Minoans it meant that their woman were wonderful mothers and raised many strong children. Egypt saw three dimensional thinking and even in the Scriptures of our Bible animals are used to depict the empires of the Beast.
This manner of thought is all but gone today and in the two dimensional thinking they were taught to think they can no longer see that a mans head,the body of an ox,wings and five legs instead of four may not have been an image of God to them but instead an image depicting his attributes, not that I endorse their religion. So he was sure footed,flew in the heavens,the bull over all the cattle and with the face of an man.
In the same our Lord warned us to look out for an beast
and a false prophet to rise together and that
neither would be by his authority. He warned us of the deception that would come from them. Today with the two dimensional thinking so abound they can only see two sides as they were taught to see. They both pretend to be good before our eyes and point to the other and accuse them of being the bad. By the time they choose their side they will be worthy of the prize. Let them both fall together, the two feet of the man with his ten toes of clay and iron.
