The individualistic, non-violent man drops out of society to become a nomadic moral philosopher. He is a bachelor, with no wife or child. He is opposed by Rabbis, religious functionaries and the government. He encourages men to drop out of society and become nomadic moral philosophers just like him. Jesus DeFOOs, severing himself from his family of origin and adopting his disciples as his family of choice. He is the true rugged individual-- unconquered by church, state, women, and family (the entities that want to use men as socially retarded obedient workhorses.)

I'm going to try to keep this as easy to understand as possible, so bear with me if my explanations are a bit oversimplified.

When one analyzes narratives and mythologies, it is often helpful to think of them in terms of "dualities" or "dichotomies"-- In other word, the Yin and Yang. The actual Yin Yang is fairly simple: black vs. white, cold vs. hot, wet vs. dry, good vs. evil, etc. These are easy to understand, and indeed many narratives and mythologies are concerned with good vs. evil. Obviously the Bible concerns itself with the last one. But others include inside/outside, rich/poor, top of the hierarchy/bottom of the hierarchy, alpha/beta, dominant/submissive, male/female, and so on. When reading mythologies I think it is beneficial to look at them like this. So what does the story of Jesus have to say? Right off the bat it smacks you across the face with some pretty meaningful imagery.

King Herod the Great, anticipating the coming of a new Messiah (savior) gives an order to kill all male children under 2 years old. He is afraid of his own hierarchy being uprooted, so we learn that Government preserves itself by killing young males. Modern governments preserve themselves by throwing men onto the bayonets of the enemy. Males are under attack right from the get go as the narrative reveals that male humans are the disposable ones.
