Vegam lekha!

Although I still don't think you're getting my point. It's not that one can be an intellectual and believe in G-d, but that one could conceivably be a leftist without being either an atheist or an intellectual. That's almost impossible in our own day, but it might have been possible in prior times.

Now I have it. I promise.....I really do....

You're a 1000% correct. Now there are leftist groups that claim to be Christian and Jewish (the $oros funded Sojourners and Jewish Funds For Justice come to mind) but running around promoting homosexual "marriage" and abortion have nothing to do with actual Christianity or Judaism. In the early days of the Progressive (bowel) movement, there was the Social Justice "Gospel", but you're right, those days are long, long gone.

The Heathen Left hates God because Karl Marx hated God. There's no rhyme or reason to it, it's just more collective Orwellian groupthink. They're not like Ayn Rand, who was an atheist, but she never tried to impose it on others. She stated her reasons why she was an atheist and if they were for you great, if not, oh well. (I disagree with her reasoning, which is far too complex to get into here. I believe in God on the basis of faith and faith alone.)

Why this took me three posts to spit this out is beyond me. The 90's were a tad too much fun I'm afraid....

:)

Thanks for your patience, ZC!
