This is the natural end of the notion that every societal change is progressive.
If society is progressing towards a natural end where all evils (as defined by those wielding power to define evil) are to be abolished, it naturally follows that there can be no further debate once a particular stage of “progress” is reached.
Yet history shows otherwise. Man, on his own, does not progress morally so much as he swaps out one immoral practice for another, and calls it progress.
Nary a word. Change is upon us and woe it is.
We fight to take back our country. But appears every step forward three steps back. Climate deniers to be put in jail, speak for same sex marriage and you are banned from your work and business.
We all wondered what the end of America would look like. Wonder no more
Revolt is coming.
For one side it’s dissent. For the other side it’s wrong.
This is possible when the MSM, educational establishment, and government choose sides.
The left is so sure of its viewpoint that it has to kill anyone who thinks different. If everyone think alike, where will new ideas come from? Of course the Left is not interested in new ideas, it is interested in holding uncontested power.
How does that happen? How was he appointed in the first place?
Thinkin much more to the story
They will NEVER be sucessful.
"On Monday, OkCupid greeted Firefox users trying to visit its site with a message encouraging them to try other browsers like Chrome, Internet Explorer, or Safari. The pop-up did not specifically call for Eich's resignation, but it certainly didn't mince words, either.
"The message said: "Those who seek to deny love and instead enforce misery, shame, and frustration are our enemies, and we wish them nothing but failure."
A dating service gets him fired. Really. Ain't gonna happen
I used to think so too but where is the evidence? It is like me thinking some day my ship will come in. Unfortunately right now it is surrounded by a wolf pack of submarines.
One thing I do ascribe to is our forefathers would have been shooting by now. Unfortunately for us, the notions of self reliance, moral compass, debate, and open mindedness have left the playing field. Our society is spinning around the bowl and on the way down the tubes IMO.
“But appears every step forward three steps back”
What happened to the next generation clergy that was to fill the void left by the passing of pastors like James Kennedy, Jerry Falwell and Adrian Rogers?
The Silent Church will bring down America.
Is there any doubt whether these tyrants would be burning books and locking people up if they could? Seeing how fanatical they’ve become, I think we’re almost there....
I wish that were so. We've arrived at a point where a CEO of a corporation is fired for supporting traditional marriage. Who'd believe such a thing could have happened 20 or even 10 years ago? Conversely, imagine if a CEO spouted some anti-Christian rhetoric today; what would happen? I think the answer is absolutely nothing; it would be defended as "free speech". "Free speech" meaning today's "free speech"; which is to say one is free to spout any of the current Leftist dogma.
Probably won’t be noticeable to anyone of influence, but I uninstalled Firefox from my home pc.
My mom fed me the line of feminist crap.
I realized she was a hypocrite when I wanted to join the JAG Corps and she wanted me to go to some “workshop” about non traditional careers for women. I said “JAG is a non-traditional career for women”. She would have liked it better if I opened a macrame store.
I had to figure out on my own that having kids and crating a nurturing home was the ultimate good. When I figured it out, I was livid with her stupidity.
So, the evil can be taught, but eventually its students might call it on the lie.
The only thing is that it was against good and decency. Now it is what was once was good and decent is considered evil while that which was once degenerate and perverse is considered good.
I have wondered the same. Depends on who you talk to, some say the church is gaining strength, I am not there so I can not see and know.
But when we have a spokesperson describe people who support same sex marriage as enemies, then I am beginning to question my moms words and Christian faith where it says hate the sin love the sinner. They have declared their hatred of me, he considers me an enemy,
What if the sin is so intrinsic to the sinner’s identity that the sin cannot be differentiated from the sinner?
I stand by what I say.
Because it is a sinful lifestyle choice in other words.
