The state of Louisiana took a giant step forward recently towards decency, honor, and the virtuous Republic our Founding Fathers established, and which is so needed if America is going to survive.  Louisiana required public school classrooms to display the Ten Commandments.  To no one’s surprise, the Left went catatonic.  But then, the Left knows nothing about true American history or what the Constitution actually means.

Our Founding Fathers would be astounded at how the document they wrote as the “supreme law of the land” is mishandled today.  And the Left’s abhorrence of religion would be a major area of their astonishment.  “Our Constitution was made ONLY for a moral and religious people.  It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other” (John Adams). And, of course, this is why the atheistic Left hates it (the Constitution) and our Founding Fathers so much.

OK, Lefty, please tell us how YOU propose to stop murder, theft, adultery, lying, etc..  Through pagan nihilism?  

We’ve tried it the Left’s way.  We let them kick God out of the public schools about 60 years ago, and practice their hedonistic experiment in subjective morality, licentious “freedom,” “live and let live” nihilism.  We gave them control of education and morality, and the results are now clearly manifest.  It isn’t a pretty picture to anybody except those who want decadence and a totalitarian government.  In other words, to Democrats.      

Look at American cities now—the big ones, governed by Democrats.  Those no-God, Democratic Party-run hellholes are flooded with murder, theft, and crime, and have thousands of people sleeping and defecating on their streets.  This is precisely what the Left wants—to create social chaos so that more government will be needed.  If people are taught self-control and moral excellence, they won’t require much government.  That was the idea of our Founding Fathers—limited government for religious and virtuous people who take care of themselves, thus they don't need a tyrannical government like Leftism always produces.  How soon we forget history.  Or rather, how soon we let the Left change it because they hate what our Founders did and what they established.

The country has drifted so far away from the divine wisdom of history that we no longer know what a man and a woman are or what marriage is.  We are ruining the lives of countless children by mutilating them for the sybaritic gratification of self-indulgent, pleasure-worshiping profligates who have the White House and Democratic Party in their back pockets.  We have a President who couldn’t tell the truth if his life depended on it.  Even “science”—the idol of the God-denying Left—can’t be trusted any more:  man-made climate change, Covid source, vaccines, transgender lies.  How far down can things go?  How could teaching children the Ten Commandments possibly make it WORSE?  Do these Leftists honestly believe our Founding Fathers would argue that their Constitution prohibits a state from posting the Ten Commandments on classroom walls?  That is utterly ludicrous, absolute nonsense, unqualified stupidity, the worst possible historical scholarship imaginable.   What in the world is wrong with these people?  

Well, I know exactly what’s wrong with them.  They are pure evil, atheistic, Marxist, totalitarian Leftists who believe that only THEY can create a moral system that humanity should live by.  And, for the last 100 years, all over the world, that moral system has said, “If you don’t believe what we tell you to believe if you don’t accept OUR moral standards, then we’re going to kill you.  Or throw you in the gulag.  Or put you in prison if you are a praying 70-year-old grandmother who happens to believe that human life begins at conception.  We will ram our ideology down your throats and you better like it.”  These people don’t believe in God, so they make it up as they go along.  And when given enough power, Washington, DC, and current Democratic-governed American metropolises are the result.  Or, worse yet, California.

We’ve let the Left, not God, make the rules for the past 60 years.  And the country is on the brink of unmitigated disaster because of it.

But the country has a serious problem, and it’s not just horrible Leftist scholarship.  More and more Americans are coming to love wallowing with pigs in the mire.  This system the Left has created out of an unscientific, hedonistic chimera suits barbarians perfectly—those people who are too lazy to practice self-control, who believe they have a right to steal, murder, commit adultery (and other sexual licentiousness), who care nothing about parenthood (honoring their father and mother), who covet and plot to obtain other people’s belongings, and to whom telling the truth means absolutely nothing.  In other words, people who worship no higher god than themselves.  This current America is exactly what they want.  And their name is Legion-- or, better, Democrat. 

Don’t you DARE teach children to obey their parents, not to steal, murder, commit adultery, lie, or—the worst thing of all—that they should worship God?  The leftist government will tell them what they can and cannot do, what they will be allowed to do, what they must believe and practice, and woe unto anyone—like 70-year-old grandmothers—who doesn’t do what the Leftist elite commands. Don’t you DARE obey God?  You must obey the US!

That’s the Left.  That’s the Democratic Party.  People who believe in something higher than government are the greatest threat to their totalitarian system.  Fathers and mothers are dangerous because they might teach something that the Leftists don’t want children to learn.  Shhh!  Don’t tell parents we’re grooming their kids to be deviants and to believe what WE want them to believe.  Let them find out when it’s too late.  WE’LL raise the children, thank you.  “It takes a village,” remember?  

Pure, 100% evil.  Enough of it!

Hail, Louisiana!  Let’s hope many other states follow suit and in a hurry.
