Progressives and their hatred for Bible Thumpers

[rsbs]

Good TH essay on why the progressives have drifted so far away from the basic moorings of historical Judeo-Christian values.

Something the foot soldiers like Bruce have been given as marching orders but something that they seem unable to articulate the how or why of. 

Hope this helps.

It never fails to amaze me how so many people of pretty average intelligence become geniuses when it comes to knowing what others should believe.

Your last sentence pretty well sums up religionists who all think they know what others should 'just believe' while ignoring what facts show us to be true.

That article is like the finger pointing at others which leaves 3 fingers pointing back at the author.

Those much touted 'judeo-christian values' which are what?

Just a slogan.

How do they differ from other values?

Lol. Bernie Sanders was the greatest exemplar of Judeo-Christian values in the last election.

The Herodians, Pharisees, Sadducees et al didn't string him up but they're working on creating the capability.

They're trying to establish the precedent that King Herod can shoot him if he chooses.

Those values have directed Western Civilization along the long and uneven arc toward freedom, tolerance, decency.

But like the present, "religion" has often been employed as a reactionary tool against that trend.

One of those periods is in play, marching under the banner of one of the most un-Christian persons you could imagine.

Trying to get others to believe what you believe is also happening on the right side of the tracks also. Me personally, I don’t care what you believe. Just stop trying to make me believe it and we’ll be good!!

Nutz, Jesus never said that Rome should be the one subsidizing sloth....at least my bible seems pretty clear on that. Maybe you have been reading Das Kapital instead.

Bernie wants free college and a guaranteed "government job" of $30,000 a year in his latest proposal. That should really stimulate the American economy.

What a fruitloop. No wonder your gang loves him.

Looks like the SCOTUS does support an individual's right to practice Christianity as they see it, though...the Cake maker won.

Ouch, that one must really hurt for you progressives.

schnur has already forgotten about obummer care, and Nancy's "pass" it and then find out what's in it...

Progressives believe Bruce Jenner is a girl so who cares what else they believe.

[schnurrbart]

How does it hurt you, 20? It is none of your business. She is not interacting with you, so why do you hate her so much. It is none of my business either. She can do anything legal she wants to do. But you guys don’t like it so you act like like she did it just to p*ss you off. You want everyone to pass judgement on everyone you don’t like.

[r3020]

I don't hate him. I pity him. I'm disgusted by those who encourage him and deny science to push their own selfish agenda.
