For those who know how to read worldviews - CT’s worldview is RIGHT.
All mankind is inherently flawed (sinners) and all institutions of man will be flawed. The secret to living with flawed institutions is limiting their power over individuals.
The left doesn’t have a truthful (Biblical) worldview, and sees man as perfectable, if only the right institutions are given enough power.
Wow. that was outstanding.

I disagree with this in part, based on the many liberals I know. Their quest is not perfection, as they will admit that they have their faults. This leaves two scenarios...this is from the liberals themselves, mind you.
1. Mankind will undergo another sudden evolutionary change that will bring him closer to perfection. (I'm not kidding, I know people who believe this)
2. They have redefined good and evil. Good comes from the government; those who oppose such a evolution are evil. This godless system will eventually weaken all churches by revoking their tax exempt status. As the government proved that churches were not necessary to care for the poor, evidenced by welfare, the Churches now serve no purpose other than some impossible-to-prove belief - therefore false belief. The churches should not receive any favors from government.
If the Socialists get the power they want, the lessons of history instruct us to fear for our lives and property.
