    About this audiobook

    The Demonic Influence on Women Today

    In the late ’60s, a small group of elite American women convinced an overwhelming majority of the country that destroying the most fundamental of relationships—that of mother and child—was necessary for women to have productive and happy lives.


    From the spoiling of this relationship followed the decay of the entire family, and almost overnight, our once pro-life culture became pro-lifestyle, embracing everything that felt good. Sixty million abortions later, women aren’t showing signs of health, happiness, and fulfillment. Increased numbers of divorce, depression, anxiety, sexually transmitted disease, and drug abuse all point to the reality that women aren’t happier, just more medicated. 


    Huge cultural shifts led to a rethinking of womanhood, but could there be more behind it than just culture, politics, and rhetoric?


    Building off the scriptural foundations of the anti-Christ, Carrie Gress makes an in-depth investigation into the idea of an anti-Mary—as a spirit, not an individual—that has plagued the West since the ’60s. Misleading generations of women, this anti-Marian spirit has led to the toxic femininity that has destroyed the lives of countless men, women, and children. 


    Also in The Anti-Mary Exposed:

    • How radical feminism is connected to the errors of Russia, spoken of by Our Lady of Fatima.
    • The involvement and influence of the goddess movement and the occult. 
    • The influence of “female” demons, such as Lilith and Jezebel.
    • The repulsive underbelly of radical feminism’s chief architects.
    • A look at the matriarchy, a cabal of elite women committed to abortion, who control the thinking of most women through media, politics, Hollywood, fashion, and universities.

    The antidote to the anti-Mary is, of course, Mary, the Mother of God, known widely as the most powerful woman in the world and the source of the belief that women ought to be treated with dignity. She is a beacon of all the virtues and qualities—purity, humility, kindness, beauty—that oppose this sinister force that has cast its spell upon so many women. Mary’s influence is unparalleled by any woman in history. She is the perfect model of Christian femininity, who desires to be a spiritual mother to us all, leading us to her Son, and to the fulfillment of our heart’s deepest desires.

      This book and those like it are nothing but total bs. We have seen what happens to many women and children in a lot of these groups. We have seen these groups deny responsibility for their actions, we have seen how abuse survivors are blamed and counseled to remain in physically and sexually abusive relationships, we have seen the cover ups of illegal and horrific abuse, and we have seen how many of these groups deny adult women any free choice over her life or any safety or recourse in an abusive situation. If you are a woman and you believe these lies against your own interests as my mother did, unless you are very privileged, you will see abuse of yourself or an acquaintance. Cognitive Dissonance indeed-Arguing against yourself and those like you and safety of yourself and any children you may have. Do not be brainwashed and buy into these lies. Haven’t you ever wondered how the will of god is always the same as and beneficial to the will of men?

      A few interesting ideas enclosed in a blather of poorly-reasoned, right-wing, twaddle.

      Complete hypocrisy - trying to blame women for societies ills. Right wing propaganda and a perfect example of Republican’s strategy of blaming the victims for the problems caused by rich white men. Anyone who truly cares about the sacredness of life should not be funding the NRA and sponsoring weekly mass shootings of American children with AK-15s sold like candy to any idiot who wants one. Only a complete misogynist who is already brainwashed would ever listen to this. It’s scary how hateful this is.

      Excellent, everything about this book is important. I'll read/listen to it again. I don't typically do that with books but this one calls for it. I have daughters to raise and make sure they are filled with grace to follow the Trinity and love Mary.

      The author gave me a lot of good for thought. I agreed with a lot of what she talked on but found some excerpts to n distressing and seemed overboard. I just listened on audio so didn’t see her references. She has very interesting slant to how feminism has harmed the family. I can’t agree with all of it but find I do agree with young women’s need to control in relationships.
