Hate and the religion of politics
American Thinker ^ | October 17, 2018 | John David Powell

A woman I know frequently tells me that many of the posts she sees on her Facebook page come from people who do not have a religious foundation or simply do not believe in God. Politics is their religion, she says, and like all religious zealots, they will seek out and attack everyone who does not share their political beliefs.

It is hard to argue against that, especially when one considers the many outlets for these outbursts, from in-your-face media bias to vocal and angry crowds. This does not paint with the broad brush of blame only individuals or groups with liberal leanings; there are plenty of right-wing nuts to go around who share a trait with their left-wing counterparts: hate.

Sadly true. My own sister is liberal, atheist, and as adamantly loudmouthed about it as can be. Anyone who doesn’t believe exactly as she does is “evil” and deserves destruction.

This is spot on. We on the Right always seem to be surprised by how low and dirty the Left will go, but we shouldn’t be. When you’re godless, you have no absolutes, meaning anything goes. Expect them to get worse and worse the longer they’re out of power.

Sorry, this is not an issue of relevance. Both sides do not share anywhere near the same scope of this problem.

The left, with their rebellion against God live in Hate.

Hate of God, Hate of Righteousness and Morality, and Hate for anyone who dares stand up for God or his Morality.

While there is some hate on the right, for the most part, it is a group of people who are fighting for the right thing.

ALWAYS look with skepticism on someone trying to make the relevance argument.

Their motives are suspect.
