The American Left is like a dog with a bone when it comes to attacking religion. Barely a day goes by without somebody holding some totalitarian worldview yelping about how Christianity in the United States is creating a new era of racism or anti-LGBTQism or some other form of generalized hate for something or other. The Left recently warned that flying the colonial era “Appeal to Heaven” flag is a leading indicator of one who is “extremely invested in the semiotics of American fascism.” No less alarming is how Christianity is fomenting an “ideology that justifies any tyranny that one’s nation might inflict.”

Our nation has strayed a long way from our righteous path.

War and the threat of losing to a ruthless enemy brings a citizenry to its knees. The only cure for socialism is service in a combat zone.
Adolph Hitler was Time Magazine's "Man of the Year" in 1938 and socialism had been quite the "thing" among American "progressives" of the day, back then known as, "fellow travelers." It wasn't until the fall of Poland and France with the takeover of Paris that these people realized what Nazis were capable of doing. Of course these leftists would be the first ones after the war to make fun of Nazis and make movies mocking their military prowess, as if it never was a threat. What liars and hypocrites they be! All the nations of NATO are realize Ukraine is hardly worth risking everything in a war with Russia, unless the USA is front and center in the action. Unlike the author's quoting of FDR, I respond with a quote from outgoing President "Ike" Eisenhower, who famously said, on January 17, 1961:
"In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists, and will persist."

These fanatics despise anybody who has a belief in God and practices a life of honesty and fairness to other people, yet the worst of the bunch, Biden and Pelosi, claim to be "devout Catholics" when it serves their purposes. They may be riding high at the moment on their power and pile of dirty money but when the time comes to justify themselves, there will be much weeping and anticipation of the fires of Hell.

Addressing this would take volumes.
Have faith in God's plan and continue to do his will and do what is right. "They" have sided with the "other side" and will be judged accordingly at the right time. Pray for them.

dante wrote his divina commedia during times such as these. like san francisco, florence had lost its beauty and
goodness...in 2 generations! from the time of his grandfather, florence had descended into political strife and vengeance.
dante was exiled for life, and never was able to return to his beloved city and people. ring any bells?
today, it could be 'filth'adelphia....reportedly, the 'city of brotherly love' paid black panthers with night sticks,
to block whitey from entering ...and voting.
after 2020 gangsta games, the biden crime family grabbed federal funds to put up barriers to protect themselves,
...from their lack of votes? has ogabe been stockpiling ammo for his ernst roehm marching band?
