If civilization is to survive in any form worthy of the name, liberalism – and, most importantly, its root causes – must die
The Immorality of Liberals

“I think he did the right thing,” said the man, emphatically, in reference to Bill Clinton’s 1990s infidelity with Monica Lewinsky. The sentiment, expressed during a conversation I had some years ago, was really no surprise. You see, the fellow was a fine specimen of his political species.
In every civilization you have, to use psychological terminology, well-adjusted individuals and dysfunctional ones. Of course, dividing people into two groups will always be problematic, as moral status is a continuum. As we walking, talking anachronisms like to say, we’re all sinners; it’s just a matter of degree. Nonetheless, some people do try to exercise virtue in their lives while others are so immersed in vice that they could mistake it for virtue. However you characterize it, though, in our time, the dysfunctional vice-lovers are described by what is another lacking term: liberals.
Many people believe that things such as politics can be compartmentalized; they act as if ideology is akin to taste. They figure that, sure, liberals believe some different things, but, really, they’re people just like us. Well, of course they’re people. But the fact is that if someone believes differently from you, he isn’t “just like” you; for this to be true beliefhttp://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/47181

JESUS DID THE ORGANIZING for His church and whenever men go beyond that pattern (found only in the New Testament of Jesus Christ) they do so at their own peril. One needs to only read the New Testament to see the problem that has been created over the last two centuries within the churches.

Are you really that obtuse, or are you that incapable of seeing what was wrong with that statement?
