...Yet Liberals continue in their fervent desire to erase any mention of God, the Bible, or Christianity in our nation. Why do they campaign so eagerly for God to be escorted out of our schools, government, courtrooms, and public places?

Simply put God is not only our Creator but also the source of all liberty, and the source of our nation’s founding. The Founders made all this very, very clear. And this scenario my friends just does not match the Liberal utopian fantasy the Left wants America to be.

In Liberal think government, run by Liberals of course, is the sole source of liberty and the judge of how much liberty the people can be trusted with. God gets in the way of this since He is the true source of our freedoms. So Liberals must first push God out of the way before they can establish their god, government, as the Supreme Being.

Hence the steady campaign by the Left to remove God as far as possible from as many places as possible...

"My object in life is to dethrone God and destroy capitalism."--Karl marx

quote:

The liberal attack on religion stems from envy, greed, anger and hate, just like every other precept of liberalism. Liberals envy the loyalty and devotion that religion inspires. They hunger greedily to have it for themselves.

Mostly, they are angry because the religious dare to defy them and to reject the ugly and inhuman tenets of collectivism. And they hate God for having the temerity to define right and wrong. They consider that their sole prerogative...

Some, embracing the “New Atheism” of Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris and Bill Maher, attack religion directly. Back on August 29, 2013, Matty Yglesias, a liberal blogger known only for his experience in the field of being a liberal blogger, tweeted: “I take an old-school Jacobin-style line that religion should be stamped out.”

Here’s a helpful hint, Matt. The end with the hole is the one that goes “bang.” That’s the end you’ll want to point at those religious people whose religion you want to stamp out. I know a bunch of people who would die to preserve their religion. I’m not sure Matt would be willing to die to stamp it out – or that he could find any other sucker willing to lose his life trying to fulfill that liberal fantasy.

What Matt reveals is the not-so-hidden desire of the left to wipe out every competing power center in society, and religion is a competing power center. He, and his goosestepping brethren, hate the idea that people might hold and act upon beliefs other than those he and his pals cooked up at some D.C. cocktail party or in some faculty lounge at the local university’s Oppression Studies Department. This is why they must break religion to their will. Some, like the alleged Presbyterians who recently divested in Israel, are only too eager to obey by choosing leftism over God’s chosen people.

But where they can’t stamp faith with their brand, they will seek to stamp it out. My new book,Conservative Insurgency, is a speculative history of the future struggle against the false religion of liberalism, and it anticipates that this war on those of faith will only get worse before it gets better. But then oppression is something the religious (and secular people who defend religious liberty) have faced throughout history. Yet today, the religious have tools they did not necessarily have in the past – first and foremost, a Constitution that protects our right to practice our religion as we see fit. Moreover, we also have social media that allows us to bypass the secular gatekeepers to spread information and organize.

Oh, and we also have God on our side.

I believe that most people have an innate spirituality born from our logical minds. It is our way of trying to explain the impossible... the reality of magic that had to occur for the universe to be created from nothing at the beginning... or if not a beginning then time without beginning. This fact can never be explained by science but it can be imagined spiritually.

As long as our species exists this spirituality will continue to manifest itself in each new generation. I'm not sure if we are blessed or cursed to be able to contemplate eternity... Life would be much simpler if we didn't look to the stars for the explanation of us.

Our minds require a beginning and before that beginning there could only be nothing and that fact is beyond and will always beyond our comprehension.

1) Liberals are relativists and hate Christians because Christians believe in absolute truth.

2) Liberals do not want anyone to say that immorality is immoral.

3) Liberals are selfish and are more interested in their "feelings" then they are with what is right for others.

4) Liberals misunderstand what Christians really believe.

5) Since liberals see themselves as the superior enlighten ones they do not recognize that taking a position against their position is not automatically hate.

6) Liberals do not want to listen to what makes sense, they would rather listen to their senses.

7) Liberals ignore the clear evidence of the result of their philosophical positions influence on the last 40 years. It had been a social disaster and they do not want to hear it.

8) They see Christians as intellectually inferior.

9) Liberals see Christians as wanting to impose their religion on them when in truth it is the liberals who have used the courts system to impose their secular humanism religion on all of us.

10) Liberals are spiritually lost and blind to the truth of the gospel.

You say that with such firm confidence but where do you locate your Self? Is the Self you identify situated in your left foot? Is it in your tummy? Most of us locate our Self in our head, in our brain. Could it be that the Self is a creation derived from all the internal and external experiences of the brain?

Maybe the Self is an illusion created by the brain. Maybe it is an ephemeral representation the brain creates to encounter and through encounters with the world. Maybe the brain is you and you are the brain, which is located in the skull that sits on your vertebral column. Maybe the illusion of Self and Self itself die with the death of the brain.

Hmmmm? Just asking.

I work with literally dozens of liberals who are Christians as well. I personally know many, many more. They don't hate Christians. They do however have issues with people who tell them that if they were good Christians they would hate liberals. They seem to get that a lot.

Funny thing, those liberal christians seen to actually walk the walk a lot better then their alt-reich brethren do. If there is a god, I think they would be awfully upset at the alt-reich christians' actions and behavior and they're going to be in for a rather rude awakening should they ever get to their promised judgment day.
