Well, Alan, I am not as smart as you, but here goes. Matthew 17 Jesus tells his guys that "if they had the faith of a grain of mustard they could make 'that mountain go away into the sea'". The mountain he was referring to was a mountain that one can see from where Jesus sat that day on the Mount of Olives. It seems that some years before Herod wanted to have a palace that could be seen from all Jerusalem and the only place where that would be possible was some 400 feet or so in the air to the East of Jesrusalem so Herod built a mountain there.
So you see, when Jesus said that if we were to have even the smallest amount of faith we could make a mountain go away he was referring to the authroity of oppressive government. The reference is pretty clear when you think about it, "for those with ears to hear."
So this is why the libtards hate the church. They understand that if we ever quit "playing church" and actually began to trust Him and follow Him their plans to rule us would be over. We could make them "fly away to the sea".
