The Left Goes Insane
American Thinker ^ | Fay Voshell

Posted on 05/31/2015 8:43:46 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

The fall in to “certain untruth” is almost complete within the ranks of the increasingly mentally disturbed Left.

Further, because so much of what the Left is promulgating is in fact certain untruth, it must continually seek to cut off rational debates. It abhors questions about the veracity of its dogma and praxis.

Leftists believe it is vitally important to prohibit questions that might undermine them or their system’s credibility. Nothing, absolutely nothing, about the dogma of the Left is to be questioned. It is only to be believed. That is one reason why the Left’s current chief flag bearer, Hillary Clinton, so assiduously avoids questions. One must have absolute faith in her.

Believing Christians and devout Jews have ideas about the created order that are the polar opposite of the Left. They believe that created reality is a God given thing to which humans gratefully accommodate themselves. They do not believe that the created order was or is made by human beings.

For progressives, such beliefs are to be silenced and quashed. Progressive dogma is as sacred as Holy writ, but unlike the scriptures, it is completely safe from exegesis or criticism. As Voegelin points out, Leftists are types for “whom a human inquiry has become a practical impossibility.”

In order to silence questions from the masses which it seeks to indoctrinate, progressives seek to erase opposition by shutting down free speech while pursuing the total destruction of any resistance. Meanwhile, it continuously indulges in what Voegelin describes as “stubborn, demonic persistence in actions that passion incites.”

#19 You are correct. Anyone who believes in socialism and communism should not be allowed in any local, state or federal position nor be allowed in our schools.
The history books need to show the horror of what these people have done or will do.

Joseph Story was very wise especially compared to some on the Court today.

Which came first, the chicken or the egg? Is insanity the cause of liberalism, or is liberalism the precursor of insanity?

The progressives use the muslims as mass against the Right and in some insane distorted way think after their final complete win against the Right, they will have satisfied the muslims desire for total dominance and they will be recognized as superior and protected from the mad dog muslims.

Mikey Savage was right that Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Exactly. That’s why leftists infiltrate religions like mainline Protestant denominations and organizations like the BSA. It would take way too much work for them to start their own and to get people to volunteer and build them up.

“There is collateral damage that must be accepted if the Left is to succeed. One is the certainty that there are things human beings cannot change just because humans want them to change and/or plan detailed programs to change them. Among those realities are the basic material and spiritual constitution of human beings and the powerlessness of humans in the face of an unremittingly unchanging natural order. There are certain limitations built into the universe; certain fundamentals none of us can change. The attempt to change or destroy fundamental realities results not in transformation of the fixed order of being, but in mere phantasmagorical fantasies that ultimately result in madness. The attempt also results in the unmitigated suffering of humans as a neo-Gnostic elite, who believe they have infallible insight into how things should be, tries to destroy reality (things as they are) and to mold humanity and history according to its capricious image.”

The left is satanic in nature and origin. Anything of God is automatically anathema to the left - like sunlight to a vampire. Therefore they attack it like rabid wolves.

The fact that the left and islam are working together shows where islam is rooted as well.
