Since Liberals do not believe in the Divine but in Government, is Government their God/Divine Being/ All Power?

Question

Should we file law suits based on the left pushing their religion on us. I do not believe in the religion of government. I believe in the religion of Wicca and if I worship at the altar of Government i am being untrue to my gods in Wicca. I am being forced to make sacrifices to the God of Government, I do not believe in making sacrifices at all being Wicca.

Answer 2

Wow. Could we generalize anymore??

I am liberal. Always have been. And I am also a Methodist that attends church each and every Sunday, is on two boards in my church, and very active with my church and its activities.

I don't worship government. But thinking that a divine force is going to fix everything as opposed to using tools such as the government to do it is like believing that praying over your dying child is going to make them better.

Answer 3

From my vantage point, liberals think of themselves as their god. Whatever the liberal wants, whatever whim or fantasy, that is their only ruling guideline. Of course, their idea of liberty only applies to liberals; conservatives are not allowed to have any rights or freedoms in the liberal universe. They want government to conform to their liberal ideas, and then use government to force those ideals on everyone else.

Answer 4

This is the problem with over generalization and over simplification.

For starters, no one is 100% liberal or conservative. I don't believe there are many people left who even know what those terms mean anymore. Both terms have been corrupted beyond recognition and few people, if any, think of their dictionary definitions when they use them.

I'm an agnostic, but I've read enough of the New Testament to get a strong impression that Jesus advocated generosity, kindness, tolerance and peace, which fit the dictionary definition of liberal traits. Being a liberal, either in the original or corrupted sense doesn't necessarily require a disbelief in God or some other Creator.

Nowhere does the dictionary definition, nor my own liberal philosophy include a belief in Government, and I would argue that the dictionary definitions would indicate a generally greater acceptance of government authority among conservatives than among liberals.

Whether or not a particular "liberal" or "conservative" accepts the authority of a particular administration usually depends on which party is in power.

Of course the real All Power on this planet at this time would be the richest 1% of the human population who own and control everyone and everything, and are killing the planet itself for their own profit. We are all forced to practice that religion if you want to call it that.

Answer 5

Leftists do believe govenrment is god. But, so do the neocon republicans - bush was jesus reincarnate waging a war against evil in the 'war on terror', remember?

Remember the faith based initiatives, paying preachers to make excuses for torture, rape, invasion, and occupation?

Postmillennialism being used to convince the left and right that 'god loves government', and that 'a good religious person would obey govt'.

Answer 6

The Liberals are like Tangerine, in the old song (it's on YouTube). Though they have us all on the run, their hearts belong to just one, their hearts belong to themselves.

Answer 7

It takes a hell of a lot of blind faith to believe the federal government will actually reduce the cost of health care if allowed the control this UHC bill will give them. So yeah I guess you could call it a religious belief.

Answer 8

What did Jesus do and what did he tell you to do.

Feed the hungry

House the homeless

Cure the sick

etc etc etc

Jesus is a liberal and so am I.

Answer 9

Many churches are often accused of being liberal.

Your question is thus too political to answer.
