Why progressives want to destroy Christianity — but spare Islam | Blaze Media
The battle for America's soul is under way — and Christianity is in the crosshairs.

In 1939, George Orwell coined the phrase "Judeo-Christian ethic" to include the values that formed the moral foundation of Western civilization.
This ethic influenced the American founders and helped shape their views on liberty, rights, and law. Post-Enlightenment philosophers have criticized the irrational aspects of religion and its role in the politics of state, but most have acknowledged the role that the Judeo-Christian ethic has served in preserving the fabric of society.
This article touches on the issue many have wonders, and that is, why do gays in San Fran march in unison to protest Israel when it is only Israel where they would not be thrown off the roof tops in the Middle East for being gay?
And why does the Left protest combining church and state but then bends over backwards trying to enforce the rights of Muslims to live under Sharia law in Western countries?
And why how can the Left continue to pretend to champion women's rights as well while defending or ignoring the world of Islam since women in Islamic cultures have zero rights and power within a given society and perhaps are treated worse than any culture on earth?
But I think the key is that Judeo-Christian traditions led to the freest and most prosperous country on earth, which is the problem.
Both Islam and the Left detest such freedoms, for different reasons. For the Leftist, there is an earth to save, which means minimizing your carbon output at every turn possible. Your freedoms are destroying their mother earth and using up it's precious natural resources. And for Islam, it is all about your moral freedoms as well. But both philosophies are really a political ideology, as the Left denies the existence of God as they then give full power to the state as if they were God, and Islam is mostly about spreading global Sharia law. Both require a fascistic power hold on any and all freedoms around the globe.
