America’s Anti-Religious Bigotry
By Benham Brothers - May 5, 2019

Abraham Lincoln once said:

“The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next.”
We’ve seen that to be true, which is why USA Today’s recent story grabbed our attention last week:

“So Yale Law School endorses anti-religious bigotry now?”
Trending: Short of Reformation, R*******n is Only Option for America’s Salvation

Oh boy – what now?!

The story basically describes the digressive nature of the progressive movement’s goal to silence freedom of speech and slay freedom of religion. That’s why the ceiling consistently becomes the floor with these folks. First they want acceptance of their ideas, then appreciation, then celebration, then participation – and if you choose not to join the revolution, they’ll marginalize you, demonize you, and eventually criminalize you if they can (wow, that was a mouthful).

Because you can’t have free speech and free religion if you want to destroy American values, you need government coercion; and to get that, you need a crop of future leaders fully indoctrinated to h**e freedom of speech and religion (well, at least freedom of speech and religion that’s different from theirs).

The article reported the Yale Federalist Society scheduled an event in February with the Alliance Defending Freedom, a premier legal organization with nine Supreme Court wins in the last seven years. But before the event took place, over 20 campus organizations condemned the group as “h********c and h**eful” because it has defended religious freedom – and won – on multiple occasions. Their most recent victory included the Colorado cake baker.

And, like a set of perfectly aligned dominoes, the dean of the school fell directly into line with the protestors. By late March, the school had adopted new policies that went even further than the protestor’s demands. Samuel Adkisson, himself a Yale grad, summed it up like this:

Under the guise of nondiscrimination, Yale Law School has announced it will blatantly discriminate. A student is barred from aid if she works at a synagogue that gives preference to Jewish applicants, but not if she works at an organization that peddles anti-Semitism yet hires all comers. A graduate is blocked from funding if she works for the Christian Legal Society, but not if she works for the Freedom from Religion Foundation. And a graduate is not eligible to receive loan assistance if she is a professor at Brigham Young University, but is eligible if she works for Berkeley.
Nice.

There are a couple key points I’d like to point out.

First, Lincoln’s quote was spot on – kids in college today do become leaders in government tomorrow. So it matters where we are sending our kids and what they are being taught.

Dr. Elton Trueblood, a former chaplain for Stanford and Harvard in the early 20th century, was asked what it would look like for Christians in America in the 21st century. His response was eerily prophetic:

“By the year 2000, Christians in America will be a conscious minority surrounded by an arrogant, militant paganism.” He saw the direction progressives were taking our colleges, and his discerning reply was our warning. Now it’s here.

Second, those saying all we need today is more “conversation and dialogue” should understand that it requires shared values and common goals with those to whom we converse to move forward as a society. But that’s not what the progressive left wants.

A traffic analogy works well here. Traffic flows in America, despite the cars we drive, what we listen to on the radio or think about other drivers, because we all have the shared value that red means stop and green means go – and we all have the common goal of making it to our destination safely.

But if people don’t share those values or goals traffic would quickly become unsafe – it would turn into chaos. And that’s the ultimate goal of the left.

Which brings me to my last point. God is not the author of chaos and confusion, the devil is. At the bottom of this struggle on college campuses (not to mention mainstream media and Hollywood) is a spiritual battle between good and evil, right and wrong.

It’s not a Republican/Democrat thing, conservative/liberal thing, black/white thing, citizen/immigrant thing, or any other thing the left decides to foment. It’s a spiritual battle that truly rages behind the scenes.

Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the LORD and against his Anointed, saying,
‘Let us burst their bonds apart
and cast away their cords from us.’ (Psalm 2:1-3)
Matthew Henry, the 18th-century Bible commentator, said of Psalm 2 that people throughout history constantly seek to cast off “the bands of conscience and the cords of God’s commandments.”

That’s why conscience and conviction are in the cross-airs of the radical Left. It’s spiritual, even if they don’t know it.

And Revelation 12:17 reveals that Satan is behind it all:

Then the d**gon became furious with the woman and went off to make war on the rest of her offspring, on those who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus.
Those who choose to live by their conscience and conviction and honor God’s moral commands in today’s America find themselves directly in opposition to the d**gon of Revelation – Satan himself.

Those on the radical left have no idea the spirit under which they are operating, so we are hitting our knees in pray more than ever for them to be set free.

Because the good news of the Gospel is still the good news – that Jesus defeated the devil at the Cross and is clothed with resurrection power.

Amen, Bahmer. This has been going on too long. It can’t be settled through conversations, because to converse we must listen to one another. The left is deaf to the t***h. Christians will continue to be persecuted and some of our churches are on the wrong side which is driving worshipers away. They are still Christian and continue to worship God and love Jesus, just not in churches. Do you recall the, I guess you’d call them “infomercials”, wherein people were worshiping in basements with a lookout before they’d leave? I think there’s a lot of that going on.

SPOT ON !!!!!!

There is no war on religion in this nation other than one group from one camp attacking one from another. It is interesting that most of the snowflakes pissing and moaning about the myth that there is an attack on religion see only their own narrow and often flawed interpretation of their particular scripture as what is under attack ignoring very real attacks on the Mosques, Synagogs, Temples and African American churches. A modern university need not entertain nonsense. The idea that creationism be given equal weight to scientific theory in the age of advanced genetics is laughable. I do think that world religion should be taught in public schools as part of a social studies program. While it would be impossible to cover the literally thousands of creation myths the course could explain the basic tenants of Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism and some indigenous faiths. Students could learn where the origins of each belief came to be and how they spread and contracted geographically over time.

I don't think I can add to that, concise, to the point and well said Kevyn

Blade_Runner Loc: DARK SIDE OF THE MOON

Back in the 1970s when Barry Hussein O was a kid in Hawaii, his mentor, tutor and favorite poet, "Frank" (CPUSA) was prepping the lad for college. Young Barry wanted to know what sort of education he should get. Frank told him, "you are not going to college to get an education, you are going there to be trained."

In one sentence, the old C****e Frank captured the essence of C*******t indoctrination, the pervasive nature of which is to train malleable young minds in what to think rather than how to think. But the brainwashing doesn't end in schools and universities. Like a malignant tumor, it is insidious in its ability to spread throughout a country, subverting its social constructs, its education system, its traditions, culture, belief systems, morality, and its governing principles.

In the 1980s, the former Soviet KGB agent, Yuri Bezmenov, in a series of interviews and lectures in Canada and the United States, elaborated on precisely what Frank Marshall Davis had taught young Barry O.

Yuri Bezmenov who became a KGB interrogator, propagandist, and press agent was the son of a high ranking Soviet Army officer. As a Novosti journalist, Bezmenov did not produce his own material, rather he edited and planted propaganda materials in foreign media and accompanied delegations of Novosti's guests from foreign countries on tours of the Soviet Union or to international conferences held in the Soviet Union. Bezmenov eventually became an informer, while still maintaining his position as a Novosti journalist. He then used his journalistic duties to help gather information and to spread disinformation to foreign countries for the purposes of Soviet propaganda and subversion.

In 1970, Bezmenov grew disillusioned with Soviet brutality and it ruthless oppression of "the masses". He disguised himself as a hippie and defected to Canada, eventually coming to the United States where he became a LEGAL American citizen. It was here in the United States where Bezmenov explained in great detail the insidious nature of how C*******t propaganda deceives and disillusions "the masses" and subverts a nation's entire society. Bezmenov made it clear that a country's education system is the most fertile ground for indoctrination into Soviet methods, tactics, and goals.

A nation's education system, he said, prepares its "indoctrinees" for positions in government, academia, and the media, all of which are instrumental in spreading propaganda to all facets of the country's character. The result of this is the breakup of the nuclear family, suppression of religious beliefs, erosion of morality, and the destruction of the foundations of stable social structure.

Bezmenov was delivering a warning to America and the west, and his warnings were prophetic.

Today, the propagandists dominate our country's media and over the years have made their way into our government. The vast majority of media mouthpieces did not earn degrees in professional journalism, rather they majored in political science, mass communications, economics and law, and any other field that provides them with access to citizens in all walks of life. And, the vast majority of members of congress are trained in law.

In the United States and other western "free" nations, these propagandists have a target rich environment.

As Bezmenov puts in one of his more striking statements:
“The useful i***ts, the l*****ts who are idealistically believing in the beauty of the Soviet socialist or C*******t or wh**ever system, when they get disillusioned, they become the worst enemies. That’s why my KGB instructors specifically made the point: never bother with l*****ts. Forget about these political prostitutes. Aim higher. They serve a purpose only at the stage of destabilization of a nation. For example, your l*****ts in the United States: all these professors and all these beautiful civil rights defenders. They are instrumental in the process of the subversion only to destabilize a nation. When their job is completed, they are not needed any more. They know too much. Some of them, when they get disillusioned, when they see that Marxist-Leninists come to power, obviously they get offended, they think that they will come to power. That will never happen, of course. They will be lined up against the wall and shot.”

There is no doubt that the roots of Liberal progressivism are planted firmly in Soviet soil. It's political dogma and doctrines come right from the pages of Marx' C*******t Manifesto.

Persecution of Christians 'coming close to genocide' in Middle East

Anyone in America who has been indoctrinated and has succumbed to the propaganda, who embodies the doctrines of Soviet anti-Americanism, and who, in turn, propagates it, and who actually believes that persecution of Christians (and anti-Semitism) is a local phenomenon, restricted to certain regions of the earth is a God damned fool in every sense of the word.

Its not a war on religion its a war on God as it always has been. This is nothing new in any society throughout the ages. This is what you fail to understand.

Modern universities certainly do entertain nonsense. And this is the result of all their "knowledge" - intellectual i***ts. Apparently this is how you want them to be.

Good post bahmer. And we have to remember that this evil will not win out.

Carol Kelly

Beautiful and, simply put, the t***h. I hope Kevyn and Morgan, etc, take the time to ingest this and see the pattern to their defeat. Not only those two, but all l*****ts.

Carol Kelly

Kevyn can’t help himself! He’s a real nutcase.

Rose42

He's just a non-believer like many others. There's still hope. Remember the thief on the cross. Its not over until we draw our last breath.

Blade_Runner Loc: DARK SIDE OF THE MOON

Thank you, Carol. Though I seriously doubt any l*****ts here have read that or they would have launched their denials in ad hominem counterattacks. Like they always do.

PeterS

Are you poor wittle Christians being picked on again? Are them evile liberals trying to take away your freedom to worship your made up god? Good god, you people whine more than a two-year-old. You are free to worship any and all gods that you chose to makeup and no one is trying to stop you. Stop making the left the fall guy for your pitiful floundering religions. It's not the left's fault that people are waking up and choosing not to worship at the altar of your golden calf. People are coming to realize they no longer need your calf thus they are turning away from what you call religion...

PeterS

A bit of projection there don't you think Blade? Like they always do indeed...

PeterS

What a crock of s**t. What makes you think your god and religion merit a war?
