Marxist and Harvard law professor, Mark Tushnet, believes the cultural wars have been won and that the Left must treat conservative Christians as hostiles, much in the manner the allies treated Japan and Germany after World War II, granting “no quarter of clemency”.
In his deluded mind, he confidently believes that “they lost, we won”, and that the left must pursue this advantage, taking the offense to “take up ‘aggressively liberal positions’ because they will no long meet resistance”.
With the death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, Tushnet, a leftover leftist elite from the sixties, is urging more radical pursuits, “insisting that now is the time to overturn “key cases” that have hindered the liberal cause”.
He has drawn the line in the sand and is specifically targeting Christians, read about it on the next page.
Tell that to Jesus when you meet him face to face
Stupid is a s stupid does
NO COMMENT FOR THIS$#%&!@*HOLE.
This can go back to LBJ after they murdered JFK.This nonsense started right after that.The liberal Demoncrats have pushed for more and more to advance their agenda of socialism.The worst is the past 7.5 years under the obama administration.The liberal socialists are denying our God and turniing toward Islam and the Muslims.Some government leaders have secretely denounced God and turned toward Islam.This is scarey.
You should be treated like the nutjob you are . . . .
WND excerpt:
With Barack Obama regarded by many as dangerously narcissistic, here comes a veteran psychiatrist making the case that the mental-emotional world of leftists is actually tantamount to a mental disorder.
For more than 40 years, Rossiter has diagnosed and treated over 1,500 patients as a board-certified clinical psychiatrist and examined more than 2,700 civil and criminal cases, both state and federal, as a forensic psychiatrist retained by numerous public offices, courts and private attorneys. He received his medical and psychiatric training at the University of Chicago.
Rossiter explains with great clarity why the kind of liberalism displayed by Barack Obama during his presidency can only be understood as a psychological disorder.
“Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principles on which our freedoms were founded,” says Rossiter. “Like spoiled, angry children, they rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave.”
“A social scientist who understands human nature will not dismiss the vital roles of free choice, voluntary cooperation and moral integrity – as liberals do,” he says. “A political leader who understands human nature will not ignore individual differences in talent, drive, personal appeal and work ethic, and then try to impose economic and social equality on the population – as liberals do. And a legislator who understands human nature will not create an environment of rules which over-regulates and overtaxes the nation’s citizens, corrupts their character and reduces them to wards of the state – as liberals do.”
Rossiter says the liberal agenda preys on weakness and feelings of inferiority in the population by:
* creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization;
* satisfying infantile claims to entitlement, indulgence and compensation;
* augmenting primitive feelings of envy;
* rejecting the sovereignty of the individual, subordinating him to the will of the government.
“The roots of liberalism – and its associated madness – can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational beliefs of the liberal mind,” he says. “When the modern liberal mind whines about imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains and seeks above all else to run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the liberal mind becomes painfully obvious.”
WTF
Maybe the Salem witch hunts,but Christians out grew those beliefs and put them aside.Muslims are still worshipping the dark ages.
Them you should be shot.
Hmm. Sounds like something a$#%&!@*would say…
“The reason the command not to fear was so prevalent in Scripture was because (as now) there was so much for people to be afraid of. We’d be delusional to look around at the world we’re living in and not be initially afraid. With the mutli-headed horrors running non-stop through our news feeds, it’s so easy to become spiritually disoriented, to lose sight of anything sure and steady. When that happens in your soul; when faith leaks out, fear seeps in–and you start sinking.
And once that fear becomes the dominant force in your religion, you end up becoming more and more terrified, more desperate, more jittery, more reactionary in your responses.
You grow more hostile to those you perceive as outsiders, more contemptible of those who are different, more drawn to protection and violence and aggression.
In other words: You become less and less like Jesus.
What you’re seeing right now in the wake of the terrorist attacks from so many professed Christians is not Jesus, or the loving, radically hospitable, interdependent community which sprang from his life and ministry.
It may have commandeered his name and appropriated some select quotes and have a similar veneer, but it is not Christianity.
It’s simply Americhristianity.
It is a Frankensteined faith made as much of rabid nationalism, political posturing, and fearful self-preservation, as it is the foot-washing, enemy forgiving, humble hearted, suffering Christ of the Gospels. It’s a flailing, angry, violent monster that once began as a noble experiment in Life.
Most American Christians have lived so long in Americhristianity that they simply accept that this is how their faith is supposed to look and sound and react. They live in an echo chamber of agreement in churches and talk shows and podcasts. That’s why when Christian politicians rushed to close their doors and borders to Syrian refugees, as they ramped up the inflammatory generalizations about Muslims, and as they called for immediate airstrikes, so many stood and applauded and amen-d, because they now have fear as their default setting and it feels natural.
Never mind that the Gospel is overflowing with the words and examples of Jesus on how to love lavishly, how to pour oneself out for another, how to bless even those who curse you. We’ve almost come to laugh that stuff off as meaningless; as if Jesus either didn’t really mean what he said or that what he said is no longer useful to us.
That Jesus; (the one from the Gospels) really doesn’t fit into Americhristianity. He’s too soft, too tolerant, too vulnerable. He’s not brash enough, his foreign policy not tough enough. In fact, the faith that so many in the West now call Christianity retains only the smallest sliver of Christ; conveniently just enough to get people saved or send them to Hell.
Outside of that, the rest is purely Stars and Stripes and American Dreams, all wrapped around a cross. We’re perfectly content to demand revenge when we get hurt, to live fat and happy surrounded by poverty, and to pick fights whenever we’re confronted—confident that Jesus approves of all of it.
We’re not sinister in this, just oblivious. Americhristainity only allows us to see God in our own materialistic, xenophobic, retaliatory image.
But Jesus was born as a homeless traveler whose family struggled to find welcome.
He lived and ministered in poverty at the mercy of others’ generosity.
He had a table of hospitality that offered no exceptions.
He held more power than anyone on the planet, yet never used that power in force in the face of oppression or violence, even upon his own body.
He was a blessed peacemaker.
This Jesus told of a heroic, Jew-despised Samaritan who modeled sacrificial mercy for the religious onlookers and for you and me. We’re still learning.
And time and time again, Jesus commanded his followers to choose faith over fear. It’s time we do so.
The heart of Christianity is inclusion and welcome and invitation. It is trust and contentment and hope that cannot be overtaken. It is serving and yielding and sacrificing.
It is not this scared narcissism that vilifies the other and sanctions bigotry and demands blood.
I love Christianity, just not this Americhristianity.
I don’t think this is helping anyone.
Until we who seek to follow Jesus choose to emulate the actual life of Christ and not the characteristics of our country, we’ll always be living a counterfeit religion—and we’ll always be afraid.
I’m not afraid.”
