That is a pretty strong statement. It must be defended by facts
that support it.
The best evidence of the fact that The Church of
Progressivism is not winning because it is bankrupt of proven ideas, goes far beyond a recent election, or a point
of view on any particular subject.
Sometimes we should all set the church aside (if we have one) and simply form our
own points of view on any particular subject. And because no two human beings
should ever agree on everything, unless one of them is not thinking, we must also have a
framework and stick to it that settles our disagreements in a civilized way. (U.S. Constitution will do just fine)
Religious wars tend to come about in human history when religious fanatics try to take over.
And when religious warriors lose, they will often resort to engaging in “Scorched
Earth” policies as they retreat.
Look at the conduct of the bullhorns, the high-profile
personalities in the Church of Progressivism as they retreat intellectually.
Let’s begin with most media anchors
and most opinion writers at major metropolitan area newspapers. They are constantly going on the record suggesting that half their potential market is stupid (the half that
disagrees with them).
Media anchors have national forums on cable networks and
broadcast networks. Their level of sarcasm and scorn for political opponents is
on the record. And it is more visceral than anything history has seen in 90
years.
In the end, litigating the impeachment proceedings is a colossal
waste of time. Fanatics will waste your time. Discussing other efforts to change
the outcomes of the 2016 and 2020 elections, that were also heavy on rhetoric and political opinion, but very light on facts, is a waste of time. We are learning that media fanatics will waste
your time, if you let them. They believe they are in the business to do 24 hours a day of sermons.
Fanaticism has spread. In addition to the media anchors, fanaticism has infected Church of Progressivism members who have been elected to the House and Senate. Even icons in pop culture are infected. Members in all these professions are passing the collection plates within their own congregations regularly.
Observers can see that Progressives are in full scorched earth mode because of their constant efforts to ATTEMPT to use the full FORCE of their faith, to nullify a
presidential election, with another presidential election right around the corner.
This suggests an intellectual mindset not unlike that of Japanese warrior mentality in the Phillipines,
once it was obvious Japan was losing the war. Sadly, they engaged in a bitter scorched
earth policy while retreating.
There is an important principle involved here. Politics is a
rough business. People like Donald Trump all know full well that the game of
national politics is very rough long before they jump in the game. However, we are
seeing the church mouthpieces descend deep into bizarre behavioral depths. At their depth, they constantly direct shrill sarcasm, scathing ridicule, and toxic cynicism not only towards elected officials, but towards sixty-two
million citizens. This is UNPRECEDENTED.....period.
When independent observers see this, they get the distinct impression that not only is the Church of Progressivism losing, but its deacons, choirs, and preachers are all consumed religious fanatics.
Most people understand the dangers they pose, and nobody wants the U.S. to turn into Northern Ireland fifty years ago, or South Carolina in 1860.
Unfortunately for the Church of Progressivism, shrill sarcasm, scathing ridicule, and toxic cynicism is not swaying enough people in enough states. SCORCHED EARTH rants don't play well in many places. Having run out of ideas, the church finds itself in a serious predicament. Outside of demanding more laws, more regulations, and more bureaucrats, the church has nothing. When these three things are all that a church offers........the religion is intellectually bankrupt.
