Then why bother being on free republic?

It’s so temporary but it sure brings out a lot in humanity

It always come down to gay marriage for the Left.

That is only the beginning for them. They don't give a crap about marriage, it's all about the State officially sanctioning Homosexuality as being on par with Heterosexuality.

Obama is a wasted eight years.

The fool author does not get it. It was ALWAYS about putting money in his pocket and accumulating his personal power.

Eight years of NOTHING. Eight years of waste.

the author is also to stupid to see the democrat party LOST MORE state legislatures.

My point (I think) is not that a person shouldn’t enjoy life. It’s that that while liberals think they can control the world and shape it to their collective will, with the end goal of achieving their so-called utopia, it’s still temporary. It’s the next world that should concern them, but they completely ignore instead. Like Jesus said, what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his own soul?

Yes per political theorists humanity has evolved from theocentric Godhead humanity to anthroprocentric Manhead humanity to messianic New Man Head humanity....best exemplified as a the new man who needs little fulfillment beyond basics provided by the state and he is the new God

That was very Cliff notes

Needless to say you and I are mired in theocentric...with a foot in anthro

Merry Christmas

Anthroprocentric would be Hobbes and the enlightenment crowd

Christians are more concerned with the hereafter ....than fixing here

Though good works does poke out its head a good it and gets usurped by fake Christians and others

You can’t be a proggie without an illusion of historical inevitability and a conviction that you’ve got the whole thing decoded. This accounts for their perpetual sense of disappointment.

Humanism, basically. That mankind is no more than an animal having no spiritual aspect. It’s the religion of the Left, and deeply flawed. There is a spiritual battle against the flesh that we all must fight, and to just surrender to the animal side of us represents the ultimate failure. That’s what they want. It’s what the devil wants. It isn’t the road to utopia that some imagine it is.

I am constantly amazed at how quickly proggies will swallow a huge lie (like global warming) and how stubbornly they refuse to believe the truth (like the free market system being the most efficient).
