Well, if people are done here blaming liberals in general for babies they don't kill, drugs they neither do nor sell, illicit sex they don't promote and venereal diseases they don't have, let's address some of these other falsehoods and ugly bits of bigotry.
You cannot reinvent or wipe away the truth of what liberals do. The scream bloody murder to keep abortion easy-access for any reason. They want short-rehab for druggies instead of accounatbilty. Illicit sex and liberalism is the same thing. And celebrating lascivious licentiousness has brought about the AIDS pandemic. The gay community is exclusively promoted by liberals.
Enough of denying facts Magus.

Liberal Fundamentalism
An oxymoron. Fundamentalism is the notion of Biblical literalism that was a backlash to the religious scholarship of the Victorian era. Liberalism is the tradition that inspired the religious scholarship of the Victorian era.
Whatever "it" used to be; it has evolved into a Jesus is myth because evolution has shown us the way club membership now, no different then the humanist position on most things moral.

Like Korah. Rebellion and all. Reform Judaism is nothing Moses would recognize and liberal Christians are hardly "worshipping" a Christ Jesus that somehow can change from aga to age. God cannot change or be changed. But ideologies certainly have.

The genesis of today’s liberal fundamentalists were the anti-traditionalist hedonists of the 1960's and 70's.
Whoever wrote this is conflating 'liberal' with 'hippie'.
Connect the dots. From "hipies" to liberals. Same cowards marching in the same parades. Now with their "step-children." Some hippies grew up when their portfolios didn't just include profits from new strains of pot.
My parents lived through the sixties and seventies, and are definitely liberal (though they were never hippies). But I, for one, am glad that as a result of the '60's and '70's, black people have the opportunity to live in the same neighbourhood I do and vote at the same polls.
really? How many section eight "projects are there in the Hamptons? How many free clinics in Brentwood?
The Civil Rights movement may have been anti-traditional, but it had nothing to do with hedonism.
I'll bet a "baby's daddy" you're history is missing something.

Personal responsibility, self-restraint and self-sacrifice were often foreign concepts to them. “Right and wrong”, “good and evil” were arbitrarily revisited, for such concepts had no objective meaning to them. They had no objective rationality for their hedonistic philosophy other than it “feels good, so let’s do it”.
Whoever wrote this obviously never took an ethics class.
You mean in Colleges or Universities that cost tens of thousands of dollars year to make a person a leftist? No, the people folowing liberal hedonism are on the streets pumping out unwanted children, addcited, or are looking intently at the mailman come the first of each month. Liberals have kills slowly and quickly.

One of the most revered mantras of the liberal fundamentalists is “equality”. The net effect of this experiment was to elevate women via the degradation of men; promote racial equality by instituting racial-based preferences and reverse-discrimination; engender class warfare against people of means via their redistribution of wealth schemes (a concept centered in greed for other people’s money, rather than rely on one’s own personal initiative and work ethic); and elevate wickedness (sodomy, fornication, and other corrupt lifestyles) to the plateau of respectability at the expense of traditional Godly values.
Doesn't explain why most liberals are good people with good families, are generally balanced between men and women, can be found across all economic and ethnic sectors of society and work for a living.
Demagoguery and reality rarely mix.
Neither does the hypocrisy of knowing right from wrong but not telling people about it. Liberals and morality are not seen in the same company. Ask the slaughtered and raped Africans? Where are the hippies marching against the wars killing them? Marxists don't march against marxists.
Easyrider wrote:
Along with the failed liberal concept of equality was the mantra of liberal “tolerance”. However, liberal tolerance is not what it appears to be. It is a corrupted partisan philosophical perspective with its own rigid set of dogmas. It assumes, for instance, a relativistic view of moral and religious knowledge. This assumption has shaped the way many people think about issues such as homosexuality, abortion rights, and religious truth claims, leading them to believe that a liberally tolerant posture concerning these issues is the correct one and that it ought to be reflected in our laws and customs. But this posture is often dogmatic, intolerant, and coercive, for it asserts that there is only one correct view on these issues, and if one does not embrace it, one may likely face public ridicule, demagogic tactics, and perhaps even legal reprisals. Liberal tolerance is therefore neither liberal nor tolerant.
Right. And the check's in the mail.
Liberalism as demonstrated holds a set of objective moral standards. One of which is honesty, something of which the conservatives on this site could use a good dose.
Honesty and liberals are oil and water. Try going to the inner-city and preaching your "good families?" The guys there will call you a racist or pound you. Taking money from honset people is not the answer toi every liberal problem that liberals create. Why are accountabilty and responsibilty such bad words to libs?

The industrialized world pumping out AK-47's to slaughter practicing Christians in third world countries? No liberal anti-whatever marches on that. Killing decent Christians elimates reminders.

Sounds like the liberals in California Magus. Ever heard of Santa Crz and Humboldt counties? Liberals dwell in large vociferous packs there.

Where would a person develope an approval of licentious and hedonistic actions if not brainwashed or scared not to ask "why" to the purveyors and promoters of marxist-socialist-self gratification? Of course any negative consequences paid for "by the state."

Good. I prefer the Gospel any day to what generally passes for 'traditional American values'. Though I'm in favour of keeping the Constitution. Especially that Bill of Rights.
Except for children. They can be killed while still in the uterus and be adopted by selfish sexual deviants if they are lucky enough to be born. Great liberal ideology. Except if you are a child wanting mommy and daddy. That no longers exists immutably. Somehow liberals have changed it.

Despite the idealistic goals of liberalism, attempts to build a utopian liberal society in America have only led to heightened outbreaks of AIDS, VD, porno-related crime, social divisions, divorce, abortion, drug addictions, deficit spending, the welfare state, a crushing tax burden, the breakdown of the family unit, moral depravity, and numerous other such scourges which have resulted in enormous societal suffering and discontent.
Again conflating consumerism with liberalism. Doesn't work, at least not from where I'm sitting.
D-4. Bingo! We have a winner. From the liberal perspective right and wrong is as fluid as heroine injected into a vein.
Try visiting the real world for a change instead of living out your dystopian fantasies and blaming them on good people.
The real world proves the utter failure of marxist hedonistic liberalism. What is literally is happening in the real world from the actions of real liberals. Godless ones and all.
