ACLU Founder a Communist Ideologue Bent on Uprooting Judeo-Christian Foundation of America

GRANTS PASS, OR, September 22, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The founder of the American Civil Liberties Union was a card-carrying communist whose goal was to undermine the Judeo-Christian foundations of America, according to author David Kupelian.

The ACLU is “engaged in trying to eliminate every vestige of Judeo-Christian expression in public places in America,” Kupelian explained in his landmark book, The Marketing of Evil: How Radicals, Elitists, and Pseudo-Experts Sell Us Corruption Disguised as Freedom, according to a review by Agape press. “It's frightening -- and they are using our tax dollars to do this. They use the laws of the land to get American taxpayers to spend their hard-earned money, actually financing their own destruction.”

The ultimate goal of the ACLU is to see an America “with little or no public vestige left of religious faith and the traditional family,” according to the Alliance Defense Fund’s Alan Sears and Craig Osten, who wrote the book, The ACLU vs. America.

The goals of the ACLU were clear from the group’s founding, as indicated by the writings of its founder, Roger Baldwin: “I am for socialism, disarmament, and ultimately for abolishing the state itself as an instrument of violence and compulsion. I seek social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class… Communism is the goal.”

The ACLU “positions itself as the great defender of rights, [but] is against the right of parents not to allow their children to participate in assemblies and curricula that actively undermine and ridicule their religious beliefs,” according to Sears and Osten, commenting on the ACLU’s successful bid to force public school children in California to attend classes that indoctrinate them with homosexual propaganda.

There is a cancer in the American body politic, which has been allowed to metastasize. It is nurtured by at least 53 members of the 'Progressive Caucus' in congress and has its roots, ideology, and objectives grounded in socialism.

This is not the paranoid rambling of a right wing radical wacko. This is a FACT.

Cicero observed, "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gate is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves among those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very hall of government itself…he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist."

"Treason from within"

So, there's a straight line running from Aristotle to Hitler, Marx, and all other non-theistic idealists.

What "straight line"? Philosophers disagreed far more often than they agreed. Try comparing the hippy-dippy philosophy of the Cynics to the crazy number juju of Pythagoras and his followers, or the hard-headed but fatalistic Stoics to the strange proto-Jainism of Epicurious. There's even the easier, more modern, example of Any Rand's undying hatred of all things Plato.

Marx was no follower of Aristotle, and if Hitler ever read Nicomachean Ethics, then I'll eat my boots. (Hitler was theistic, btw, but I trade you Mao even-up).

In any event it's provably false that there is any sort of "straight line" of non-theistic philosophical thought that led to the creation of greater and greater human monsters.

It's also too bad that liberals hijacked Chanukkah, which is essentially a festival opposed to Hellenism (which is regarded by the Sages as the equivalent to the primeval darkness before G-d created light) and a reaffirmation of the Jewish G-d and the source of all morals and ethics.

Maybe they didn't like competition?

Well, since you admit that the philosophers disagreed so much with each other, why are you insisting that one of them came up with a moral/ethical code that exists objectively? My whole point is that without an objective Creator G-d all moral/ethical systems (regardless of how strict, how fanatically championed, or how widespread their acceptance) can only be subjective (mere "hang-ups" of an individual, a group of individuals, or a society). So how exactly is your making my own point for me supposed to discourage me?

Hitler was theistic, btw)

Of course. That's why he instituted Genesis creationism in all German schools and erected monuments to the Ten Commandments in every German public square! [/sarcasm]

In any event it's provably false that there is any sort of "straight line" of non-theistic philosophical thought that led to the creation of greater and greater human monsters.

But since there is no G-d (chas vechalilah), who is to say who is or is not a monster? Aristotle may define mass murder as "bad," but I'm sure some other philosopher can be found to excuse it. So we're right back where we started, aren't we?

It's also too bad that liberals hijacked Chanukkah, which is essentially a festival opposed to Hellenism (which is regarded by the Sages as the equivalent to the primeval darkness before G-d created light) and a reaffirmation of the Jewish G-d and the source of all morals and ethics.

Well, He ain't called the Jealous G-d of Israel for nothin' (even though Jews have come to be associated with "religious pluralism" and "tolerance" and chr*stians, of all people, with cultic intolerance). And if everyone hadn't felt the need to invent all these new religions and testaments and dispensations, we wouldn't even be arguing about "but whose G-d is the real one?"

Why should the Jews have been jealous of the Greeks? Considering, after all, that astronomical information given them as Divine revelation is more accurate than that achieved by any other nation as a result of scientific investigation, it seems to me that the Greeks had nothing to offer (except the Hellenism which so many Jews have fallen for).

I advocate Theonomic Positivism, myself.

Oh . . . and this is what I think of Hellenism.
