The War of the Words


by Teri Ong

Researchers have determined that women need to generate 4 times as many words as men, on average. It is a good thing that I do not feel compelled to keep track and generate 4 times as many words as my husband. He– a preacher– has been given the spiritual “gift of the gab.” There would not be enough time or legitimate opportunity in 24 hours to quadruple his output. I do, however, get in my fair share. Freedom of conversation was one of the things that drew us to each other 30 years ago.

In conversation, there are three identified levels of concern: people, events, and ideas, with talk about people being the lowest form and talk about ideas being the highest. Some have mistaken me for being rather a cold fish because I am generally more interested in talking about ideas than I am in chatting about people and the circumstances of their lives. (As a mother of seven children and grandmother of two, I have plenty of involvement in the circumstances of life of certain people.) But on the whole, society is obsessed with gossip about people. Witness the popularity of People magazine, the tabloids, and gossip shows on TV. Why would so many magazines, even news magazines, have celebrities on their covers? (Because they sell!) Look at Oprah– identified as the number one culture maker in our country– her picture is on her magazine every single month.

As Americans have drifted away from reason toward emotion as the basis of evaluating truth, words have become less important and pictures and images have become more important. The implications and reasons for this shift can be debated, but few would deny that it has happened. [see notes in References below] Two examples in the culture war come to mind: MTV (based on sensual/sensate images designed to arouse feelings) and conservative talk radio (no images, only words about large scale political and social ideas designed to provoke thought).

Technology has increased the output of both words and pictures in society. Until the printing press, writers and artists were restricted to single copies produced by hand. With the invention of the printing press, multiple copies could be produced quickly and with less investment of time and money, but the cost was often prohibitive and printing was in the hands of skilled tradesmen who made large investments in equipment.

During the early 70’s, when I was in high school , our journalism department moved from contracting out the school newspaper to a specialized print shop every other week, to printing on “insty-print” offset presses in the school print shop twice a week. What we wouldn’t have done for all of the computerized E-quipment available for in-house newsletters today! We could have produced the school paper every day of the week! But today, news is not even daily– it’s minute-by-minute. And anybody can sit around in their jammies and post written pieces, photographs, films, music videos– anything they want– on the internet, and almost for free, have an expectation of world-wide distribution.

This is not the first time in history that an explosion in technology has had ramifications in a culture war. In the 1600’s, English society saw unparalleled upheavals as royalists and republicans slugged it out physically and metaphorically over whether their government was going to be top down (royalist) or bottom up (republican). Historian Nigel Smith wrote, “The sinews of communication made the [English] Civil War possible, and, beyond the level of brute force, communication and authority were fought over and disputed until the end of the century. Moreover, as the most fixed and daunting structures of the external world– monarchy, Lords, church– crumbled, so the internal pillars of thought crumbled.” (P.1)

In his book Literature and Revolution in England: 1640-1660, Smith argues, “It is my contention that literature was part of the crisis and the revolution, and was at its epicenter. Never before in English history had written and printed literature played such a predominant role in public affairs, and never before had it been felt by contemporaries to be of such importance: there had never before been anything to compare with this war of words. It was an information revolution.” (P. 1)

What Smith identifies as a “war of words” was so intense that the monarchy at various times sought to control certain types of communications. In the 1620’s and 1630’s James I and Charles I (“Big Government”!) tried to stifle means that were used to criticize their regimes. When the Commonwealth failed and the monarchy was reestablished in 1660, the “Act of Indemnity and Oblivion” was enacted as a method of forcing political unity. It stated, “Anyone who shall presume maliciously to call or allege of, or object against any other person or persons any name or names, or other words of reproach tending to revive the memory of the late differences or occasions thereof, shall be punished with fines.” (P. 1) Evidently too many people were engaging in what the king saw as “the politics of personal destruction.”

  Don’t give up in the war of words.

This is eerily similar to modern day American attempts to hush up one side or the other: witness, hate crimes legislation, the “Fairness” doctrine, campaign finance reform, and a host of attempts to regulate the internet.

Just today I read a column by Gene Policinski (executive director of the First Amendment Center) entitled, “More fences springing up to restrain the wild wild web”. He details a variety of diverse groups such as the US Supreme Court, the Missouri Legislature, Verizon Wireless, AT&T, and their attempts to block certain kinds of e-mail and language on live broadcasts, to bring libel suits against bloggers and to restrict what bloggers can reproduce from news organizations. “Nostalgia and romantic notions didn’t stop the fencing in of the vision of a wild, open country. For good or bad, a combination of legislation, court decisions, self-imposed restrictions and private vendor rules are creating limits in and around the Web’s wide-open speech country in much the same fashion.”

Smith wrote, “When something as cataclysmic as the English Civil War and Revolution occurs, a massive destabilisation in the order of meaning is engendered. That there were so many words enhanced the sense of this, and it was a time which many acknowledged as a collective loss of reason.” (P. 362) In the current election cycle, we are seeing more clearly the cumulative effects of a similar collective loss of reason. Rush Limbaugh expresses it as “symbolism” (visual, emotional) over “substance” (ideological, rational). It goes back to that whole idea of people and events vs. ideas.

Star Parker, columnist for Scripps Howard News Service, points out that Republicans and Democrats alike are dissatisfied with “the state of their country”; 70% are unhappy with president and 90% unhappy with congress. That is pretty cataclysmic! “What also is happening is we are witnessing a phenomenon that, at least for the time being, is personal– not ideological.” She continues, “So the election is about change. It’s not ideology. It’s personal. And those who care about limited government and traditional values should be worried.” Our important presidential race is between Obama with 71% public visibility and McCain with 11% visibility.

Someone years ago uttered the truism, “One picture is worth a thousand words.” Pictures are, however, limited. One can photograph people and events, but one cannot photograph ideas. And pictures do need captions. When there is no caption, a picture may not be understood at all or may be misunderstood. It may evoke inappropriate emotions because it was not understood in context. So the need for words to go with our pictures is as great today as ever. During the English Civil War, Smith acknowledges, “As usual with governmental attempts to regulate language, the legislation did not work.” We should pray that attempts to regulate free speech, particularly political speech will be as ineffective today as they were 400 years ago. And we need to keep fighting hard and smart in the war of the words.

P.S. Our heart goes out to the family of Tony Snow, a fallen soldier in the War of the Words. May someone worthy step up to carry on the fight!

I personally attribute the shift from verbal to visual to two things:

1. Uncertainty of epistemology: post-modern relativism causes many to believe that there is no objective truth to be known rationally. Hence, we can only truly know how we feel. Visual images evoke feelings preeminently and are trusted as true.

2. Declining national character– i.e. laziness, selfish desire for ease. Studies have shown that alpha waves are produced in the brain during tv watching, making the brain more inactive watching tv than during sleep. We watch in a deep sleep with little ability to think critically about what we see.

Name Calling

by Teri Ong

I have been incommunicado for about a month now because I have been away from home more than I have been at home, and my road duties precluded much writing. Just about the time we went on the road, a retired political science teacher from the University of Northern Colorado wrote a column in our local Greeley Tribune bemoaning how the conservatives in Colorado have made an epithet out of the term “Boulder Liberal.” He went on to explain that liberal was a badge of honor; after all, the founding fathers had all been liberals. Liberal is related to liberty, which we all know means freedom. The modern day liberal movement is all about freedom– the freedom for all of us to band together and make a better collective society.

After accusing conservative (i.e. Republicans) of vicious name-calling, he engaged in a little bit of it himself. He called conservatives “reactionaries” and described them as quintessentially selfish.

His piece demanded a response. I know a little bit about classical liberalism, and I also know that classical liberalism does not reside in the Democratic party or any other modern American political group that calls itself liberal. Liberalism has shape-shifted into something the founding fathers would have abhorred– moral libertine-ism and a god-like state that can take whatever it wants from you for the good of whoever promises the most loyal obeisance. What follows here is my response, which was published as a guest column in the Greeley Tribune on Sunday, June 22, on page AA7. I called it “Free to Be Conservative”; they called it

“Definition of Liberalism Seriously Outdated”

Until I looked it up the other day, I didn’t know that there are over 30 definitions given for the word “liberal” and all its derivatives down through “liberty.” No, “sinister” wasn’t among them. But it did strike me that some of the definitions more closely describe 21st century liberalism than others. These all come from Webster’s New Collegiate Dictionary.

“Generous and open handed”: I would have to say that this is very descriptive of American liberals. The catch, however, is that they are generous and openhanded with “government” money, rather than their own. Not very many seem to realize that the government doesn’t produce anything, so to get money it must take it from citizens. When the liberals are being generous with money they have liberated from my pocket, it doesn’t seem to me that they have given me more freedom to spend it the way I want. But perhaps they have given me freedom from money.

“Lacking moral restraint, not bound by traditional forms”: The liberal minds in the Colorado State Legislature were so concerned about the people who don’t know which restroom to use that they made a law allowing anyone to use any facility they want. Why be bound by traditional signs on doors? I guess they have given me freedom from using public facilities, since I don’t want to worry about who I’ll meet in one. [author’s note for out-of-state readers: S.B. 200 allows public restrooms and public locker rooms to be non-gender-specific, ostensibly so as not to discriminate against the trans-gendered population.]

“A theory in economics based on free competition, the self-regulating market, and the gold standard”: This one doesn’t quite fit our modern liberal friends. In fact, we’d have to go all the way back to the Founding Fathers for this one– true classical liberals! The last things 21st century liberals want are these things. Just in the 2008 legislative session we got more regulation of oil and gas (That will help free up supply!), more freedom for unions to take money and spend it in ways workers may not want, and a plethora of bureaucratic fees liberally raised without regard to actual cost of services.

“A political theory based on the autonomy of the individual”: Sorry, this one doesn’t fit either. Modern liberalism is heavily invested in determining what is good for everyone and forcing everyone to be “good.” How many autonomous individuals at the Democratic National Convention this summer will be sipping their Cokes from disposable plastic cups or eating their burgers and trans-fatty fries? No, they will all, with one accord, be eating their multi-colored vegetables off of china plates that have to be washed with thousands of gallons of precious western water.

By the way– I looked up “conservative” too. “Reactionary” was not a listed meaning. Webster says a conservative “adheres to traditional norms of taste…methods or views…to keep in a sound state or condition.” I am a conservative– I still believe in freedom based on American traditions of self-determination and personal responsibility. Some things shouldn’t be changed.

A Final Note

There is nothing wrong with name calling as long as the name accurately reflects the character of the named. Even names spat out with abusive intent may be accurate, and may eventually come to be appreciated as such. For example, “Christian”, or “little Christs”, was first used derisively. Likewise, the term “puritan” was used against those Christians in England who stood, often at great personal cost, for the purity of Christ’s church.

We are told to ask God for things based on His name– that is, based on the character of God. We acknowledge that character when we refer to God Almighty or Holy Father. Things we ask for need to be in line with His might and his holiness.

Problems arise when name callers don’t understand the real significance of the name they are using. When that happens, we have an excellent opportunity to disabuse them of their erroneous ideas.


“One of my names is Conservative.”

Arts! Shvarts!

I am going to be teaching a course next semester on Puritan literature and art (yes, there was some!). Knowing that about me would give you a clue that I am not heavily vested in the modern or post-modern eras in terms of art history and appreciation. I could probably be described as “an old dinosaur,” a Lewis-esque term, in regard to what I truly like in music, literature, and art.

I don’t subscribe to the “old is automatically better” school of thought, but it is probable that the better artworks have been preserved over many years or centuries, while a good percentage of the mediocre and mundane have been lost, forgotten, or destroyed. It is unlikely that some piece of abstract sculpture formed out of a movie star’s dryer lint will be preserved with the same vigor as the frescoes of the Sistine Chapel. On a personal level, I assume my children and grandchildren will be more careful to preserve my grandmother’s “Scenes After Constable” china, than they will be to preserve my “Old Town Blue” Corningware. My point is that a higher percentage of the old works are better because they have already been through many years of evaluation and selection.

When I hear in an academic presentation, as I did last summer, that contemporary people don’t patronize traditional art museums because they don’t like all of those larger-than-life haughty, white, European males (or their wives and off-spring) looking down at them from the wall of the gallery, I dissent. For one thing, it has always seemed pretty crowded to me whenever I have taken a group of students to the National Gallery in London. An awful lot of people seem to be there appreciating a fair cross-section of the canon of western art– everything from Giotto to Picasso.

On the other hand, when the tour boat commentators on the Thames point out the Tate Modern gallery and joke about it being free because no one would pay to get in, I laugh along with everyone else on the boat. Who, indeed, would pay to see “sculpture” made of moldy bread or crumpled paper, or unmade beds, piles of litter, or moth-eaten suits? Most of us don’t need to go to a gallery event to see those kinds of things; all we have to do is clean out our garage, basement, or the back of the fridge.

At least, the suits of clothing one sees in the National Gallery will never be moth-eaten. And they are stunningly painted! Even if you don’t care a bit about the history of old Lord Whosits or Lady Whatsits, anyone with eyes that can see should be able to appreciate the individually painted pearls, the delicately shaded lace, the sumptuously textured velvets, and glistening brocades crafted by artists of incredible talent and skill with pigments in two dimensions on enormous pieces of canvas. Amazing! Then there’s the Canaletto room where the pictures of Venice are so detailed and so historically accurate that they have been used to calculate how much certain Venetian buildings have sunk in the last two hundred years. I have sat for long periods of time trying to absorb the brightness and beauty of those paintings– they are so vivacious and exude the joie de vivre and variety of everyday life.

Almost all of my experience with post-modern “performance” art has been vicarious– I feel safer that way. My personal moral space is less likely to be violated by the crass, crude, and downright obscene if I stick to reading reviews and critiques. For a masterful handling of one of the latest artistic atrocities, I thank World Magazine, which recently reported on the scandalous work of Aliza Shvarts.

Shvarts perpetrated her perverse performance as a student in the art department at Yale University. I will not defile you by describing her artwork in detail, but it involved supposed by-products of perverse sexual activities in a graphic multi-media presentation. She explained that her goal is to show that “normative understandings of biological function are a mythology imposed on form. It is this mythology that creates the sexist, racist, ableist, nationalist, and homophobic perspective, distinguishing what body parts are “meant” to do from their physical capability…” Such mythology is the source of oppression, according to the standard line from the skewed worldview she has been taught to believe. (See World Magazine references)

What we should see when we look at

Shvarts’ artwork.

The real elitists in the art world are not those looking down on us from the walls in some traditional gallery, they are the ones winking and bumping elbows as they watch the “shock and awe” created by Shvarts’ artistic bomb. How bold! How meaningful! How original!

The man on the street may not understand the tenets of post-modern deconstructionism (1. Truth claims are fiction, 2. Totalizing discourses are to be rejected, 3. Liberation comes through rebellion), but he understands that Shvarts’ “art” is hideous and perverse. He understands that the nihilistic philosophy portrayed by it is about as original as mass produced floor tiles. He understands that the truly “bold” thing to do is to say that the post-modern art emperor has no clothes. He understands that even an Elvis on Black Velvet has more artistic merit, since not a few people actually enjoy looking at them.

Dorothy L. Sayers, in The Mind of the Maker, explains a Trinitarian model for artistry. She argues persuasively that true art requires an un-imaged idea or experience in the mind of the artist for which he must make up a design; the design must then be skillfully fleshed out or expressed in a concrete and creative way; through that concrete expression an audience will be able to recognize the truth of the artist’s idea. I see the three phases as design, craftsmanship, and communication.

Since the 1960’s, and with increasing intensity since the turn of the millennium, design has been replaced with “concept”, skilled craftsmanship has been replaced with staging and spectacle, and communication has turned into manipulation. Shvarts’ literal “bloody mess” is a prime example.

Many years ago the president of St. Benedictus College told an auditorium full of students, including this one, “If they tell you it’s art, and you don’t think it’s art, don’t believe them!” Notice, he didn’t say, “ if you don’t feel it’s art.” Valid evaluation requires a thought process. “I like it” or “I don’t like it” won’t hold up. There are probably some of those elitist winkers and bumpers who would at least say they like Shvarts’ work.

But think about it– Did her work require design? Hardly! Smearing blood on white plastic does not require a schematic or even a rough sketch. Does it evidence skilled craftsmanship? Crassly put, cats and dogs in heat make messes too. Does it communicate truth? It does communicate the depravity of the human heart and give evidence to the truth of what the Apostle Paul wrote in Romans 1:18-32. However, it doesn’t communicate that truth by the artist’s intent.

Perpetrations of supposed art are ubiquitous in today’s society. When you experience one, stop and think, before you believe!
