Liberals and apparently RINOs do not hold the Christian view of the nature of man. They see people as essentially good and willing do the right thing when the proper environment is created. The see government as the vehicle for creating those circumstances. The only reason socialism/communism hasn't worked yet is that it wasn't done properly.
This world view is the sole reason their policies fail time after time after time.

Christian (truthful) view of the nature of man - inherently sinful. Must not be allowed too much power over his fellow man. Only through a spiritual rebirth in Christ will someone choose a different path away from sin.
Secular Humanist worldview of man - perfectable, given the right societal environment. And that environment can be created by giving the "more perfected" people enough power to do so.

That misrepresents both worldviews at the same time.
