Mouthing what seemed at first to be consonant with the American way, the Left was able to work across decades and to such effect that we hardly knew what hit us or how this great U.S. of A. became so changed and nearly lost.
That they hate is us clear. But why do they hate us? And why are they so crazy?
It’s their religion.
While based on Christianity, what they have is bent and twisted. Let us compare their “version” to the real one.
The Great Commandment of the New Testament, taken from the Old, is “Thou shalt love God with all thy heart and mind, and thy neighbor as thyself.” This is a personal command, directed at each individual person. It should be, because our worth is judged individually, and our salvation is gained on the basis of individual merit.
What if someone messed with the Great Commandment, “just a little”? They did. The “Great” Imperative is: “We shall love God with all our hearts and minds, and our neighbors as ourselves.”
Instead of the individual being the focus, the operand, of the commandment, now it’s the collective. Worth is now assessed collectively, and salvation is gained collectively. The most important thing is to be among the “we.” Salvation depends on it.
Thus, it is not so much that the Great Commandment has been set on its head as that it has been perverted. A heretical formulation has given birth to a heretical and perverse religion.
Sacraments and prayer to help the individual keep the Christian Commandment are replaced by rites aimed at demonstrating membership in the collective. Thus, “Virtue signaling” is engaged in, reminiscent of odd superstitious incantations that used to be condemned as primitive.

One of the most common beliefs of leftists I have known is atheism.
um no
That’s right.
I see it as agnostics. Had to really dig into that one. Atheism is a cover for being agnostic.
Tranissarianism
Outstanding addition to the language
Screaming that Tranissarianism was protected by the First Amendment, the delusional man violently resisted having his dick cut off
Hatred gives them unity, and these cowards see themselves as heros. In fact thet are nihilistic lemmings led to slaughter by evil demons who fight to destroy the Divine Principle.
This is what they do:

the religion of the dems has been done before.
Its premodern paganism as practiced by Abraham’s father and the nations that later surrounded Israel.
Couldn’t that be just the opposite? That agnosticism is merely a screen for atheism? What I mean is; by pretending to believe the gospel, feigning agnostic uncertainty about it, they can mask their total, flint-hearted atheism and loathing of Christianity. Just spitballin’ here.
This might not cement my point, but it DOES illustrate what a flint rock-hard heart looks like. Recently the FEMALE governors of Kansas and Arizons vetoed bills the would have saved the lives if infants that survived botched abortions.
IMHO you could strike a piece of iron on either of those two flint rock hearts, and get enough sparks to start a fire. These people truly have no apparent reverence for God whatsoever. But Judgement Day cometh!
That didn't get off to a good start.
I know. I think what the author meant is that salvation is an individual thing and not a collective thing.
I agree with how you phrased it.
.
Don't know why, but God let him loose on the earth long ago and he has been in ascendance big time since about 1790.
Communism and its progeny have been his religion and vehicle since then.
We are now in the final test, where these recent events we call the End Times in fact lead to the Second Coming and our judgment, OR, we have a religious revival in our country, one which then spreads around the world, and we reform ourselves and our country, and the End Times are left for another generation to deal with.
Certainly there have been horrible, barbarous, murderous, deviant nations before ours. We are not the first evil nation or fallen nation. So religious revival, conversion, and renewal have happened and are possible and to be hoped for and striven for.
So giving in to these satanists and resigning to the End Times is not called for.
We should fight these evil people.
"But he who endureth to the end, the same shall be saved."
We should fight back, not quit. Don't let these evil commies win.
our salvation is gained on the basis of individual merit.

No.
Agreed. Salvation through individual merit is based on the filthy rags of human works. We are saved through Christ’s sacrificial grace alone.
