Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire This is how insane the Left (and MSM) has become....

Robert P. George, a Princeton law professor and renowned legal scholar is now considered a "hatemonger" because he has made an argument in defense of marriage and because he heads an organization dedicated to defending marriage. For those crimes, the MSM now label him a purveyor of "hate".

But consider the following: every human being who has ever existed has done so in consequence of the sexual distinction between male and female. This means, quite literally, that the root of all friendship, as it is the ground of the existence of the species, is that of a man and a woman. It has been said that "mankind as a whole is recognized by its generations, like a river which is one and the same while the ever-renewed cycles of birth and death flow on. But the generations are constituted---and can only be constituted---by the acts of generation arising from the conjunction of male and female." To speak such truths, to speak of the obvious moral superiority of heterosexual eros and thus the perpetuation of the species is to be labeled a "hatemonger" whereas to embrace the disease and death of a sodomite lifestyle is to be labeled "moral and virtuous." Apart from Nazi and Stalinist genocide and chattel slavery (which denominated other human beings as hogs and horses and oxen, viz., chattel, something lacking in free will), has there ever been a greater moral inversion in human history? I don't think so.

I agree MSN are scum

It is only a moral inversion amongst those who propagate the perversion. They can try, and wish and hope, and scream, and manipulate - but never will they succeed to any significant degree. What must it feel like to sell your soul to a perverted and immoral concept - and then fail to succeed? They are having their banner days in some societies here and there, but those will not thrive. Desperation and failure are the keywords.

Nature dictates they will not succeed.... problem being, they are in positions of power to take us down with them

Yes, some are in power positions, but the majority of those are political tokens who, along with others of that ilk, will be kicked to the ditch when they are no longer useful symbols or tools. The normal sector of society will not go down with them.

Left and right wing leaders are all pushing the same UN agendas across the world. No difference between either wing anymore, except the noises they make at election time.

If you stand for what is good as good and against that which is evil as evil you’ll be branded hateful.

And no one in the mainstream of Republicanism will help you; they’re more scared of this than most, and are jumping on every evil bandwagon they can to keep from being called such names. Gotta hold onto those important DC positions… for the people, dontcha know…

The agendas are one thing - and some of those deserve strong concern - but the eventually emerging reality is something else entirely. Hunger for power and control by self-selected "elites" is nothing new and the means chosen to grab those are not new either. A repeated story through history, and only the actors and details differ. The evil core has not changed, and will not.

In the face of those who lust for control and to deny your freedom for some personal gain, there are some people in whom the hunger for freedom and self-determination is much more strong and persistent. Those are the noble folks - the best of humanity. If they maintain resolve, they will prevail - sometimes at heavy cost - but history highlights their victories. Resolve and unity matter.

Those lusting for control can brand a noble person "hateful" or "ignorant of the facts", or "selfish" or apply any other brand that suits the needs of their moment. Such branding will have no effect on the freedom-loving , other than to help illuminate the evil agendas and tactics. Sarcasm and fear-mongering are not antidotes to the evil - resolve and unity work.

Excellent post, Paul!

Those in power possess such a level of hubris that they are incapable of recognizing that human nature will prevail and that humans were created free and that is their natural state.

Evil has, and will continue to, attempt to subvert that nature, but it is nature, not some artificial state. While there are plenty of sheeple (for lack of a better term) who will go along for the ride, there is only so much they can take before rising back up and refusing to be slaves.

The evil that is spreading across civilization now refuses to believe that it cannot be defeated, it refuses to believe that it is wrong, and refuses to acknowledge the past which proves that they are not as smart as they think they are.

Words have power, and allowing them to control the words gives them power which they cannot otherwise gain, much less control.

Paul: Thank You.

This was published in 1995 by my church. It is titled, "THE FAMILY - A Proclamation to the World":
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We, the First Presidency and the Council of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, solemnly proclaim that marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.

All human beings—male and female—are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents, and, as such, each has a divine nature and destiny. Gender is an essential characteristic of individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose.

In the premortal realm, spirit sons and daughters knew and worshipped God as their Eternal Father and accepted His plan by which His children could obtain a physical body and gain earthly experience to progress toward perfection and ultimately realize their divine destiny as heirs of eternal life. The divine plan of happiness enables family relationships to be perpetuated beyond the grave. Sacred ordinances and covenants available in holy temples make it possible for individuals to return to the presence of God and for families to be united eternally.

The first commandment that God gave to Adam and Eve pertained to their potential for parenthood as husband and wife. We declare that God’s commandment for His children to multiply and replenish the earth remains in force. We further declare that God has commanded that the sacred powers of procreation are to be employed only between man and woman, lawfully wedded as husband and wife.

We declare the means by which mortal life is created to be divinely appointed. We affirm the sanctity of life and of its importance in God’s eternal plan.

Husband and wife have a solemn responsibility to love and care for each other and for their children. “Children are an heritage of the Lord” (Psalm 127:3). Parents have a sacred duty to rear their children in love and righteousness, to provide for their physical and spiritual needs, and to teach them to love and serve one another, observe the commandments of God, and be law-abiding citizens wherever they live. Husbands and wives—mothers and fathers—will be held accountable before God for the discharge of these obligations.

The family is ordained of God. Marriage between man and woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are entitled to birth within the bonds of matrimony, and to be reared by a father and a mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity. Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities. By divine design, fathers are to preside over their families in love and righteousness and are responsible to provide the necessities of life and protection for their families. Mothers are primarily responsible for the nurture of their children. In these sacred responsibilities, fathers and mothers are obligated to help one another as equal partners. Disability, death, or other circumstances may necessitate individual adaptation. Extended families should lend support when needed.

We warn that individuals who violate covenants of chastity, who abuse spouse or offspring, or who fail to fulfill family responsibilities will one day stand accountable before God. Further, we warn that the disintegration of the family will bring upon individuals, communities, and nations the calamities foretold by ancient and modern prophets.

We call upon responsible citizens and officers of government everywhere to promote those measures designed to maintain and strengthen the family as the fundamental unit of society.

This proclamation was read by President Gordon B. Hinckley as part of his message at the General Relief Society Meeting held September 23, 1995, in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Like/Like.

Couple years ago I read a book about the rise & fall of Rome, amazing at the parallels of Rome and the United States.

Maybe they'll all die.

Agree completely with Pau but disagree with Ed on our “freedom”. Other than that…

Man is born a slave to his own impulses and hungers. We have been exceptionally blessed by God to have enjoyed the freedom we have but it IS exceptional and for that we ought to be grateful.

Once upon a time we were free but our first parents surrendered that freedom in an attempt to be gods unto themselves not unlike those who are leading our culture. As Paul said, same as it ever was.
