I know many here will object to Lively's contention that the cultural Marxists have defeated the American church, but a little thought will reveal that, "for all practical purposes," this is true. Where is the real, meaningful opposition by the church? That is what he is talking about. The modern American Church may not acquiesce to the left's ideas across the board, but they remain quiet about it.

Well look at where we are at:

1. We are now fighting battles over bathrooms.

2. We have forced homosexual marriage in our culture.

3. We have normalized illegitimacy.

4. We are on the road to normalizing drug use in our laws.

5. Political correctness has become the dominant thought process. Even those of us who think political correctness is horse blank, still consider it when you are making comments in public about issues, or talking to people, or are on forums like this. There is great fear of being called a racist/bigot/hater and we are having to qualify our statements that we don’t hate someone. We’re on the defensive because of the suffocation of political correctness.

Mr. Lively sums up our current situation brilliantly.
We have to defeat the One Worlders before they consolidate their power and make their final move on stamping out Christianity.

It has been obvious since the whole gay marriage ordeal that eventually they are going to expand the civil rights act to encapsulate gay rights. That’s where this is all going and then Biblical Christianity will be effectively illegal. I can’t understand why no one is openly discussing this. I have yet to hear anyone openly state this on American Family Radio or any of the big 3 AM talk radio channels. The idea that one will have to be politically correct when delivering a sermon or face penalties and or jail has been brought up. Criminalizing Biblical Christianity and cleansing Christians from all public sphere’s of life is what this is about.

He is correct but he lost me with the Cruz worship. Cruz was a very flawed candidate. Truth in advertising, I was a big Cruz supporter in the beginning. He lost me the longer he went on. I mean, Glen Beck, Carley? truly desperate and going all Elmer Gantry near the end. Sorry. Cruz was the problem not the solution. Our problems are so numerous we need to hit them a few at a time rather than trying to right the ship all at once. It took decades for us to descend to this point.
We need to do some serious naval gazing. We have met the enemy and he is us. Famous line from cartoon strip Pogo.
We didn't do enough at the local level to stop the slide. Has anyone attended a school board meeting and complained about the textbooks our kids use?????????? Well???????
It starts with us. How many have been in a position to run for some local office and didn't. Too much trouble etc.
Am I wrong???????????????
I was involved in the local Tea Party movement. It has petered out but we did get local change at the party level after a huge fight. We are still fighting the entrenched Rino’s but we are winning. They are still using every method to discredit us and force us out.
Keep fighting. Also involved in getting Common Core out of the schools. We elected a Tea Party member to the state Senate and she is carrying the fight to the legislature. Big money is keeping us from winning there, for now.
so I toss out the gauntlet.
How involved are you?????????????????????????
