Cogent, concise analysis of liberalism. Because so many aspects of liberalism appeal to peoples need to feel good about themselves while actually doing things that aren’t necessarily good (or productive) it has many adherents. I believe that the lack of a moral core (moral relativism) is the basis of liberalism. The ‘feel good’ stuff is just deodorant.
Gen 3:4-5 is the basis of liberalism.
Everything about it is a reflection of what the serpent told Eve.
