I'll reserve judgement on that until I see it demonstrated here. Have seen no evidence yet.
As for the left and religion, why do you think that Marxists and Communists feel the need to destroy religion? Because they wish to install their OWN religion, worship of the state. Those deities just get in the way, along with their belief systems.
The worldwide assault on Christians by Islam has been accelerating the past few years but few here know about it. One in this country who only watches TV news (over the air or cable channels) or reads the few remaining newspapers would have virtually no idea that it is happening and especially on the scale that it is. There are a few websites that catalog all the incidents worldwide and they are numerous, from Iraq, to Nigeria.
I'm talking about the burning down of churches, often with people inside, to outright massacres of Christians like happened this past week in a village in Nigeria. The driving out of all the Christians is the goal. The methods used don't matter to the fanatics. While the world is rightly obsessed with the slaughter going on in Syria, our media is silent on the destruction and sometimes outright slaughter of many historic Christian communities in the middle east and around the world.
Our media does not want to talk about it at all because it hits too close to home as far as the attitudes on the left go. Also, it would be an eye opener to those paying attention to things like HHS mandating that religious organizations and schools must pay for things that go against their religious beliefs. While it is an assault on religious freedom, the left claims it is a 'war on women.' Only silly, immature young single women believe that line of B.S. More telling are the
actions of our government in attacks on religion, once again using regulatory agencies (HHS) and "rule making." Why was there scant mention in the U.S. News media of the 43 lawsuits filed against the government last week by Catholic and religious organizations? You know the answer. BO's team has over-reached again and likely the court will strike that one down, too.
Commies also believe that the family unit must be destroyed, as well. They continually seek to trample parents' rights and assert that the state has parental rights. They attempt to undermine parents and keep them in the dark about what left wing "social justice" crap is being fed to their kids. Educating children through propaganda will be much easier and less messy with no parents to butt in and object.
