Leftist leaders pretend, with eye-popping cynicism, to be Christians while pulling in 90% of the atheist/agnostic vote. They pay lip service to something called “America” while working feverishly to change our America beyond all recognition. They pander to “the little guy” while striving to strip him of his money and his liberty--all in the good cause of saving the planet from Man-made Global Warming: which is caused, of course, by the same beloved little guy’s light bulbs and bedroom air conditioner, and never by any Democrat nabob’s private jet or zillion-dollar mansion.
Wherever it’s been tried for any length of time, left-wing public policy ends in self-destruction. Because they do the opposite of everything God describes in the Bible as righteous, sane, and good, the leftists’ house falls down. Even the Soviet Union only lasted 70 years in spite of propping itself up with secret police and gulags.
Instead of fleeing in terror from such policies, today’s CPAC seems to think conservatives can do the same kinds of things that leftists do, and get away with it by doing them “smarter.” Yes--smart folly is always so much better than stupid folly, isn’t it?
Today’s liberals are tomorrow’s secular conservatives. These are the conservatives who, twenty years from now, or sooner, will be defending “gay marriage.” If conservatives cannot or will not conserve the authority of Christian teaching--which all our country’s founders explicitly acknowledged--they will not be able to conserve anything at all.
