Evil Is Real And Has Embedded Itself In The American Left
American Thinker ^ | 21 Sep, 2025 | Ted Noel

The Bible spells out the war between good and evil, but we’re seeing it play out in real time on American soil.

With the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the word “evil” is being tossed around. It seems to be little more than a verbal equivalent to “fascist,” “racist,” and a handful of other words that are used without a second thought for what they actually mean. We are appropriately repulsed by the act, so we call it evil. But few of us truly understand that these “horrific” acts have a fundamental connection to the realm we cannot see. Yes, I’m going to discuss theology, because there is no other proper explanation for the acts of the assassin and any co-conspirators. Argue all you want, but it is the truth, and the truth remains the truth, whether you agree or not.

“Evil” is a concept in the realm of morals. The late Christian philosopher Ravi Zacharias trenchantly noted that “there is no moral law without a moral law-giver.” If any of us declares a “moral law,” our proclamation will have as much authority as that pack of space monkeys typing out the collected works of Shakespeare in the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Consider the prohibition on theft.

If you steal my stuff, I’ll get upset. But it’s the state statute that makes it criminal, and that law was created by a legislative body that has the right to make laws governing our behavior. It has the higher authority required for law-making. The law against theft echoes “Thou shalt not steal” from the Ten Commandments for a good reason. Good laws follow God’s moral commandments.

Good and evil are actually descriptions of loyalty to God or rebellion against God. It’s just that simple, and evil’s as old

I think that the left, in their rebellion against God, has chosen to be on the opposite side of good.

I gotta quote White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller:

There is an ideology that has steadily been growing in this country which hates everything that is good, righteous and beautiful and celebrates everything that is warped, twisted and depraved. It is an ideology at war with family and nature. It is envious, malicious, and soulless. It is an ideology that looks upon the perfect family with bitter rage while embracing the serial criminal with tender warmth.

Its adherents organize constantly to tear down and destroy every mark of grace and beauty while lifting up everything monstrous and foul. It is an ideology that leads, always, inevitably and willfully, to violence — violence against those who uphold order, who uphold faith, who uphold family, who uphold all that is noble and virtuous in this world. It is an ideology whose one unifying thread is the insatiable thirst for destruction.

We see the workings of this ideology in every posting online cheering the evil assassination that cruelly robbed this nation of one of its greatest men. Postings from those in positions of institutional authority — educators, healthcare workers, therapists, government employees — reveling in the vile and the sinister with the most chilling glee.

The fate of millions depends upon the defeat of this wicked ideology. The fate of our children, our society, our civilization hinges on it. Now we devote ourselves, with love and unyielding determination, to finishing the indispensable work to which Charlie bravely devoted his life and gave his last measure of devotion.

No doubt. Unfortunately the poison seeps through all of a society that’s turned its back on God. We see that today in America.

Fervent prayer needs to be directed at the left to rid them of their demons and turn them from evil. This is one application of prayer that goes with promises to be effective.

The reason the left exists is because of conservative apathy.

To rid America of the anti American leftists, Conservatives must go after and destroy them.

There can be no co existence

Every time I read those words of Miller’s, I nod my head in agreement. It’s just so true.

Am I to assume you did not accept the "evil" attribute of liberals, or that you plan to fight evil without prayer?

Read Jonathan Cahn‘s “The Return of the Gods”. Cahn is a messianic Rabbi who takes a profound and prophetic look at American culture and society today revealing how the ancient gods are still at work. As modern culture turned away from God it has created a vacuum that enabled evil spirits to enter. These age-old gods and entities from the ancient Middle East are reasserting their influence over modern Western society.

That is a great quotation. Do you know the source?

Rebellion against God isn’t a left wing thing. I will agree that it’s more overt in left wing circles but it’s not exclusive to them.

It’s been there the whole time. Back in the 1950s they, including FDR, loving called Stalin, “Uncle Joe.” That tells you everything right there.

The evil within the Left has become more obvious because those on Left that had any semblance of common sense have walked away and are still continuing to do so. The concealed is becoming increasingly revealed.

Satan followed the Muzzies to America. He is on every “college” playground in the country.
