Christianity defends the weak against the strong.
Progressives are regressive ...
PING!
Judaism and Christianity have lasted for thousands of years for good reasons. Wiccans, Aztecs and Druids? No so much...
Word.
Besides being oppressive for its victims, the “new” morality (which, as the author points out, is neither new nor moral) focuses attention entirely on the carnal. Whatever can be present in the act of sex beyond mere libido is cast aside. And that makes the act between humans qualitatively the same as the rut between two animals.
A society so obsessed with bestial pleasures is not one likely to ennoble its future.
Excellent post, and one that can’t be repeated itself. People need to be reminded that Christian sexual ethics were considered both revolutionary and liberating when introduced into pagan societies. The left believes that abortion and birth control remove all negative consequences from promiscuity. The left is wrong.

So many times the nations have been warned. So many times. And the dog returns to it’s vomit.
Leviticus 18:
24 “‘Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, because this is how the nations that I am going to drive out before you became defiled.
25 Even the land was defiled; so I punished it for its sin, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.
26 But you must keep my decrees and my laws. The native-born and the foreigners residing among you must not do any of these detestable things, 27
for all these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you, and the land became defiled. 28 And if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you.
II Kings 17:
6 In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.
7 For so it was, that the children of Israel had sinned against the Lord their God, which had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,
8 And walked in the statutes of the heathen, whom the Lord cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they had made.
II Kings 17:
19 Also Judah kept not the commandments of the Lord their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
20 And the Lord rejected all the seed of Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until he had cast them out of his sight.
21 For he rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drave Israel from following the Lord, and made them sin a great sin.
22 For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they departed not from them;
23 Until the Lord removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said by all his servants the prophets. So was Israel carried away out of their own land to Assyria unto this day.

Sums things up perfectly, thanks for posting.
It is so true, God’s law is a blessing and a protection, not a hardship.
