The hatred of the Left
For many, many years now we have heard all kinds of angry denunciations and name calling coming from the Left. Hater! Bigot! Racist! Etc. What is behind all of this anger and name calling? It is directed at the Right. What is behind all of it is hatred. Hatred on the part of the Left. It is all an attempt to hurt and destroy their enemy. That is the way they fight. Name calling. Trying to put labels on people. Trying to paint everyone in this group that they hate in some simplistic black/white way. If you don’t have Truth and Reason on your side, the best tactic is just name calling. I would say it all started back in the late 1960's with the hippie movement, an anti-Christian counter-culture movement that brazenly embraced such things as free love and drugs. This was the beginning of the Great American Sexual Revolution. In those days the hippies with their long unkempt hair, living in communes, were everywhere. I suspect that the most of today’s liberals are either former hippies or people of that outlook. The Right in America tends to be of conservative moral outlook. That means the Right tends to lean toward Christian moral standards. The Bible is a very conservative book morally and strongly condemns things like fornication, adultery, illicit sex. Consequently the morally conservative person is not well liked by the morally liberated, sexually freed, Liberal. There are a great many people in this country who just do not like Christians. Why? Their lifestyles are in direct conflict with the values of Christianity. The conservative, morally straight Christian is just a very different kind of person from them. He is not their kind. Not of their crowd. So they call him names. The gays and lesbians, for example, follow a lifestyle that is strongly condemned by Christianity. So they hate Christianity and Christians. I suspect them of being the source of a great deal of the name calling.
The Left is a movement of instigation, malice, anger, and hate. It tries to place the black man against the white man, tries to turn women against men, etc. It is a movement led by trouble makers. Christianity teaches goodness and peacefulness. The Left is godless and loves argument and trouble. I suspect that just not believing in a God may tend to make a person quarrelsome, argumentative. Bad conscience may tend to make a person quarrelsome.
