SALT & LIGHT VI: In America, until quite recently, the repudiation of Christianity has been more subtle. In today’s world, it has become unacceptable to have a literal belief in what God has declared to be true in the Scriptures. To do so is to admit you are an ignorant, anachronistic, uninformed, and unscientific person.
To maintain biblical beliefs as being real and legitimate invites contempt and ridicule, especially from the Progressive Left. Their castigation can be very intimidating and quite unpleasant. By being consistently mocked, Christians have become marginalized in our society. Because our worldview contradicts what is proclaimed by the cultural values of nearly every person in the media, academic world, and the entertainment industry, we have been deemed to be deplorable and irredeemable.
According to this generation’s Progressive viewpoint, God, if He really does exist, is in everything and everybody. All avenues lead to Him, regardless of what they might be. He is universally accepting of everybody, whether you believe in Him or not.
Regardless of what you believe or what you do, it is irrelevant, according to Progressives. Although many question the existence of God, some others have redefined God to be whatever you want him or her to be.
Being tolerant of what others believe is the central tenet of America’s cultural religion, coupled with militantly believing in climate change. The only mortal sin for a Progressive is to accept and maintain a Christian belief system. To Progressives, our perspective is intolerable. To believe in God’s truth, as revealed in the Scriptures, is considered to be uninformed and out of touch with reality. It’s as simple as that, and because of our ignorance, we deserve the castigation we receive for adhering to such nonsense.
