Voter Fraud-- A Plank In The Progressive Platform?

When President Trump announced his Voter Fraud Commission, newspapers across the country ripped the president---on the 4th of July--accusing him of "cracking down on a virtually non-existent problem."

The NYT said sarcastically, "If the paranoid voter-fraud crusaders devoted a fraction of their inquisitorial energy to solving that vexing problem, now that would be something to celebrate."

The Washington Post made it a racial matter, while other lesser light papers followed their lead.

And this was before the Commission met last week. You should hear them now.

It's as though a plank is being ripped from their philosophical platform.

PEW: Majority Of Conservatives Believe Colleges Bad For The Country

A recent PEW Research survey found that 58% of Republicans and Independents believe colleges and universities now have a negative impact on our nation---the first time a majority of conservatives have expressed that view.

The same survey found that 72% of Democrats and progressives now believe colleges and universities have a positive impact on our nation.

Both groups are negative toward the news media---85% of Republicans and even 46% of Democrats believe the news media has a negative impact on our country.

PEW doesn't speculate about why people feel as they do, but the "Facts" and the "Why" certainly identifies the social, ideological and moral divide in our country.

"We're Going To Punish The Wicked" Christians

Last May, then Vice President Joe Biden praised Tim Gill for his wonderful work in advancing the LGBTQ agenda saying "no telling where the agenda would be without Gill."

Attorney Mary Bonauto, who argued successfully in the same-sex marriage case "Obergefell v. Hodges" ---the case where the Court supposedly redefined marriage---agrees with Biden in praising Gill.

Tech Millionaire Tim Gill is now telling Rolling Stone Magazine he is going to "punish the wicked" who stand in the way of "progress."

Who are the "wicked" in his mind?

Christian writer Rod Dreher in his new book, "The Benedict Option," is calling for Christians to retreat to "conscience-forming communities" similar to those of 3rd and 4th-century monks to avoid the coming persecution.

Some Christian leaders agree.

Dr. Garlow: "Satan Using 'Gay Marriage' To Destroy Image Of God"

Speaking at the Sixth Annual Family Leadership Summit on Saturday, nationally renowned evangelical pastor and best selling author Dr. Jim Garlow explained how man and woman are created in the image of God and that gay "marriage" is "demonic" because it perversely mimics and mocks God's design for love and children, and seeks "to destroy the very image of God upon the planet."

Barronelle Stutzman Makes Last Stand--The Supreme Court

The Associated Press reported Sunday that lawyers for Richland, WA., florist Barronelle Stutzman are now asking the United States Supreme Court to reverse a Washington State court's decision earlier this year that found her guilty of discrimination for refusing to provide flowers for a so-called "gay wedding."

For more than 4 years, Stutzman has been in litigation because of her biblical beliefs regarding marriage.

Some in the evangelical community are saying maybe it's time we agreed to disagree over the same-sex issue.
