If you pay attention to liberals long enough, one thing you will come to realize about them is that they have an almost instinctive urge to tear down America.
Good essay, John, I always appreciate the clarity and refinement of complex ideas that you give us. Not to belabor this point, because sometimes the question "why?" doesn't have a good answer, but faith in God is the reason why people like me value points 5 and 6, authority and sanctity. I know I will someday stand in judgement and will answer for my actions, so it's not just; "what can I get away with?" America had a great design for a religious people, but if we cut the chain that moors us to a higher power, I think America destroys itself. That's why so many Christians pray for revival, because we read in the Bible where God has spared Israel, when they've returned to Him. Liberals can be saved, if you chase the demons out first.
