Liberalism seems to have an irrational animus against Christianity. Consider these two stories highlighted in the last week by conservative Christian blogger Rod Dreher.
Item 1: In a widely discussed essay in Slate, author Brian Palmer writes about the prevalence of missionary doctors and nurses in Africa and their crucial role in treating those suffering from Ebola. Palmer tries to be fair-minded, but he nonetheless expresses "ambivalence," "suspicion," and "visceral discomfort" about the fact that these men and women are motivated to make "long-term commitments to address the health problems of poor Africans," to "risk their lives," and to accept poor compensation (and sometimes none at all) because of their Christian faith.

Which poses a problem. The free exercise of Islam includes subjugating, enslaving or killing non-Muslims. The solution: declare Islam not to be a religion. It is a socio-political system masquerading as a religion.

No flames, YOU ARE SPOT ON!!!
And liberals hate Christianity because Christianity has a moral code, because we want to ne closer to Christ. There is right, and wrong.
Christ, His Father, and the Holy Spirit are what our lives are to be about.
Liberals god, is themselves!
Simple, they are EVIL.
Satanic demonic people who despise God/Jesus/Yeshua/I am.
Correct.
At all, for anyone but themselves.
Human nature wants you to embrace your desires. Christianity openly discusses it and why you shouldn’t. Some just don’t want to know. Others know and just want to continue to do what they want. Some because so perplexed with the messenger they become demonic with seething hatred for Christians.
Christianity becomes a mirror that reflects all the things that aren’t good for them, their sin - and they don’t like it...so they wish the mirror didn’t exist, they’d rather just look away. They believe they can MAKE it go away....but truth is always truth.
This is especially true with the ‘trans’ crowd. They want to mock truth and make everyone comply.
Then why do they MAKE so many?
And unless the lefties all truly repent and turn to Jesus Christ before it’s too late, they will never see the inside of Heaven.
Spot on!
You ignore the teachings of Jesus in favor of those of the Pharisees.
My understanding of works in the Christian’s life is that it makes life nice. It doesn’t play a direct role in my salvation.
The liberal wants nice done works done for him, without him being obligated to you.
Accountability.
Also, I haven’t ignored anything. Western society, on Christian teachings made Western society a society that is just on this side of Heaven. That’s the role of works in society. It makes our society nicer for our children, who will hopefully pass on the blessing. Judeo-Christianity is the only civilization that could potentially have a Star Trek like future.
It doesn’t play a direct role in our salvation.
‘Receiving the sacraments’ doesn’t necessarily mean one understands. A lot of that happens when one is too young to really understand in the first place, and at that point is a function of one’s family’s tradition, not the true volition of the child.
The states can constitutionally restrict Islam (as a religion) all they want if their own state constitution allows. But the feds cannot constitutionally restrict Islam as a religion.
However, the political side of Islam is another story. If it can be proven that Political Islam presents a clear and present danger to the rights and peace of America and the American People, then I think the feds constitutionally could step in to treat Political Islam as a Hostile Invader and put them in Gitmo or deport them.

Check the catechism on this and or talk to an intelligent priest if it’s important to you
I believe you are quite incorrect
I’d wager from the condemnation of homosex.
That old bible thing about abominations and being condemend really gets to them.
Never seen more virulent christian hate fhan from liberal homos.
Actually, it has a very direct role in our salvation. Good behavior doesn’t make one a Christian, but having become a Christian, one is obligated to walk the walk. To not do so is sin. All but one or two sins are forgivable, but even forgivable sins will send a person to Hell if not repented.

Better yet, check your Bible.
