Message: Entry: Bill Donohue Is Right About the Huckster Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/bill_donohue_is_right_about_the_huckster#12144 Post contents: "...at the expense of human freedom..." "Human Freedom" is not the basis of a society. It is not a principle of political thought in Classical Antiquity. It is not present in Christendom, or in traditional Western Culture or Civilization. "Human freedom" is an Enlightenment concept and the authors of the Enlightenment were mostly Atheists; God-haters. And so RP quotes an Atheist, Sinclair Lewis, is par for the course. Why does Atheism get to write political philosophy? Libertarianism is not Christian, is not Western Culture. The point of "human freedom" is used to abrogate, deny and nullify the effect of the Church, so in this regard, RP is equating Church with Fascism. Why shouldn't a man stand four square on Christian tenets and principles? Why should we be afraid of Jesus Christ? For all this squabble points to a valid truth--there is NO such thing as "seperation of Church and State". All RP is doing is ensconcing Atheism and State. Sent at: 2008 10 07
