What Actually Comes Next

Less than forty-eight hours after King Anthony sovereignly provided new theology for our secular, civil religion, the left is now publicly calling for the abolition of tax-exempt status for religious non-profits and churches.

It will come. It has to come. If gay marriage is a fundamental right under the equal protection clause, it is going to trump a lot of the first amendment. As Chief Justice Roberts noted, King Anthony’s theology precludes “free exercise” of religion.

But all of this is down the road a few years. Let me tell you what is going to happen first.

Silence.

A newspaper in Pennsylvania has declared it will no longer allow letters to the editor opposed to gay marriage because it is a fundamental right.

BuzzFeed declared that, in its editorial position, there is no position other than support for gay marriage.

Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, banned all apps from its store that display the Confederate flag. That had to be walked back a bit, but there you have it.

The Los Angeles Times refuses to run letters pointing out that global warming is a scam.

And now, Apple and Facebook are set to develop news platforms that will have a human curator, instead of a computer algorithm. Twitter, likewise, is engaging humans on trending news topics, etc. It is only a matter of time because Google works its algorithm magic to drive down links to those who oppose the new cultural agenda.

By Monday, serious calls for regulation of faith. More gun control. Harsher penalties for anyone speaking against the blessed homosexual.

By August, a massive upswing in lawsuits based on the above and the beginnings of widespread voilence.

By September open violence with militants of every liberal stripe taking advantage of social media stirred hate for traditionalists.

Then things start getting bad.

We’re really close to a really big push-back.

I can’t see us too tolerant to the gaydars push for NAMBLA, loss of tax exempt status for churches, forced hiring of gays in churches, schools, destruction of persons and businesses who aren’t PC.......

If this does not energize and cause our side to start to fight then obviously all is lost.

why does this quote no longer seem so unbelievable.

This city is afraid of me...I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout “Save us!”... and I’ll look down and whisper “No.”

They had a choice, all of them. They could have followed in the footsteps of good men like my father or President Truman. Decent men who believed in a day’s work for a day’s pay. Instead they followed the droppings of lechers and communists and didn’t realize that the trail led over a precipice until it was too late.

Don’t tell me they didn’t have a choice. Now the whole world stands on the brink, staring down into bloody Hell, all those liberals and intellectuals and smooth-talkers... and all of a sudden nobody can think of anything to say.

Wait till we have targets designated by the MSM, ad they did in Rwanda in 1994.

Oh they do have things to say. Over the last few days I can’t tell you how many continue to blame conservatives for the evil that was sent to DC. Not a one will stand up and accept responsibility for their ‘lesser evil’.

I’ve been hearing that “push back is inevitable” since 2008.

I trust God’s Word—and it clearly teaches that nations turning away from Him fall.

That is what we are witnessing.

Short of a spiritual revival—a big one—this nation’s days as a force in the world are over.

And I am not saying we shouldn’t fight the good fight. We should. And I plan to be there, by His grace.

Just looking at the situation. God’s people are to be there win or lose in the culture.

The rest is in His hands.

Because this is a population of herbivores.
