The greatest, most diabolical triumph of evolutionary Progressive pagan religion has been the destruction of the human spirit, thereby making possible the demonic transformation of a once free and morally ordered people under the one true God into a godless collective of apathetic, ignorant nihilists...dehumanized aspects of the void that mindlessly destroy their own and their neighbor’s God-given rights to life and liberty.
