Exactly SS!! Glad you see it!

I had a Nigerian Philosophy professor who asked the kids if they believed in Moral Absolutes. Only three people did (I was one). He went on to explain that in societies with moral relativism—you get chaos-—there is no Right and Wrong. It is like having a basketball game with everyone on the team making up their own rules. You just get fights and arguments and never get any game played to the finish.
Economies are like that. It needs set rules and trust. People in civil societies have to be able to trust other human beings. You can’t, if they do not believe in Moral Absolutes.
There was a Russian who stated that Marxism destroyed trust between all human beings—between mothers and children, men and women, neighbors, etc. (Witakker Chambers wrote about it in Witness).
If you look at schools—that is what they are doing—destroying trust—not only between the races and classes, but schools belittle parents and their ideology—even Al Gore undermined parents—telling kids that they knew more than their parents. Hitler did exactly the same.
Destroy trust and you create fear because you isolate people. And people then cling to government, instead of people. Government manipulates people by creating “fear” and they get the masses doing what they want. Mob psychology. Lenin was close to Pavlov.
A belief in God—gives hope and trust and removes fear. It is the opium of Marxism and the reason for meaningful, productive lives. God is why America was the greatest and freest and most successful government on earth in the history of the world.
