Communistic Social Science and Apocalyptic Revolution
The Ignorant Fisherman ^ | 8/17/2010 | R. Mark Musser

While modern leftist academics routinely mock at the looming Judeo-Christian apocalypse prophesied in both the Old and New Testaments (Joel 2; Isaiah 24; Matthew 24-25; 2 Thessalonians 1-2; Revelation 6-19) as something only a deranged literalist could entertain in his own fundamentalist mindset, they remain completely unaware that their most important leftist forefather, Karl Marx, was a false prophet of secular fundamentalism and profane eschatology. Karl Marx’s false prophecies, written in the 19th century and based on an extreme ‘literal’ socio-economic reading of life which was inappropriately hotwired with the so-called ‘scientific’ laws of ‘progressive’ societal evolution, proved to be the most deadly force of human suffering and wanton destruction that the 20th century could offer. Even worse is that communism, a religion dressed up in quasi-scientific, secular language to make it palatable to the modern mindset, continues to be a potent force in the world today in spite of all this carnage.

As posted on another thread:

American citizens must learn that there is nothing benevolent or "compassionate" about passing laws to "take" the earnings of some citizens in order to buy votes from other citiens with those "taken" dollars.

The Congressmen, Senators, and President who promote such a counterfeit idea rely on the ignorance and greed of the people in order to enslave them, even as they sometimes use scripture (if the occasion is favorable) to justify their tyrannical policies.

John Adams to Thomas Jefferson, February 2, 1816:

"Power always thinks it has a great soul, and vast views, beyond the comprehension of the weak; and that it is doing God service, when it is violating all His laws. Our passions, ambition, avarice, love, resentment, etc., possess so much metaphysical subtlety, and so much overpowering eloquence, that they insinuate themselves into the understanding and the conscience, and convert both to their party."
