Leftists are less likely to keep these than they are to keep the original Ten.
The leftist mindset seems to have only one commandment: No one knows better than you, what is best for others.
Well said D’06!
At a lecture years ago by theologian Walter Martin, he observed: “There are really only TWO faiths, worship of God of the Holy Bible and worship of self… all ‘isms’, cults and New Age thinking are all variations of the worship of self”.
To that I add… all are based on the Serpent’s seduction in Genesis 3:5: “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” True in the sense we are sovereign souls… but we know “good and evil” only in our own narrow self context… what’s “good” for me may not be good for you… thus potentially 7 billion little “g” gods running about, all with possibly different and conflicting “good’n evils”. War, murder, conquest and slavery throughout history the result of our individual “godhood”. As sovereign souls (real) God will not violate that sovereignty… we must willingly surrender it at the foot of the Cross.
The “rusty” irony... the atheist is the embodiment of Genesis 3:5… a “god” so limited and small he/she cannot see they are foolish and anti-rational, while they claim the opposite. Sin of pride personified.
