These include emotional shock and desensitization.. stripping away defenses.. and inducing acceptance of alternative values.." [2] Thomas Sowell "I cannot stand narrow minded idiots like yourselves. You are seriously sick." A visitor to our website Throughout history, "tolerance" has meant different things to different people. A century ago, most Americans would have defined it as civility toward ... persons, not as acceptance of contrary views. In contrast, today's "tolerance" demands acceptance of politically correct views but intolerance toward those who cling to "traditional" values. While media leaders feel free to mock Christians, believers are losing their freedom to state their convictions. After all, they might hurt someone's feelings. This transformation didn't "just happen." During the 20th century, socialist visionaries redefined tolerance and began using it as an effective weapon against Biblical values.

Resist him, steadfast in the faith!" 1 Peter 5:8-9 I heard no laughter while watching ... Hunger Games on opening day. Just sober silence. This teenage movie-- set in a totalitarian world that supposedly replaced a broken America-- shows the grim struggle for survival in a world without God, hope or meaning.

... sheep's clothing, it speaks kindly, but has sharp teeth. It exists largely for power-hungry elite leaders with few qualms about mass murder. In fact, its "peace-keeping forces" are better known for killing and raping than for achieving peace. Back in 2003, Thomas Sowell wrote this wise warning, which our administration largely ignores: "When you see a four-year-old bossing a two-year-old, you are seeing the fundamental problem of the human race-- and the reason so many idealistic political movements for a better world have ended in ... dictatorships.

They know that rational arguments do less to change consciousness than an incessant flood of ideas and impressions.

No wonder we are losing the God-given freedom that helped make America a strong and moral nation. Roots of Oppression Back in 1994, Thomas Sowell made an interesting observation: "At the heart of the socialist vision is the notion that a compassionate society can create more humane living conditions for all through government'planning' and control of the economy.. "The rule of law, on which freedom itself ... depends, is inherently incompatible with socialism. People who are free to do as they wish will not do as the economic planners wish..
