The way Campbell explained it,
Young Men need a
Secondary Father
to finish raising them.
Beyond their Biological Father,
they need a surrogate,
traditionally
a
minister
or a
coach
or a
military officer.
The floatsam and jetsam of a generation
washed up on the beach of last resort.
That's why street gangs are so appealing.
They send you men out,
like Knights on Quests
to hone their skills and improve themselves.
And all the TRADITIONAL Mentors -- forget it.
Men are presumptive predators.
They're leaving Teaching in droves.
Religious Leaders
are pariahs.
Sports Coaches
are stigmatized as odds-on pedophiles.
Even The Military is sketchy with sexual goings-on.
A Generation of Apprentices
Without Masters.
