Not a religion. A mental illness.

Belief in Supernatural Beings -

"The Government"

Sacred vs Profane Objects, Places, Times -

Earth Day is sacred.

Christmas, Christopher Columbus's birthday, and "Independence Day," MAGA hats, and Trump Tower are profane.

Ritual Acts Focused on Sacred Objects, Places, Times -





Moral Code With Supernatural Origins -

"Global Warming/Climate Change," "The Wall Is Immoral," A fetus is not human, abortion good; death penalty bad, ever evolving PC language


Characteristically Religious Feelings -



Prayer and Other Forms of Communication -




A World View & Organization of One’s Life Based on the World View - Just watch CNN or MSNBC for 5 seconds

A Social Group Bound Together by the Above - MSM, Hollywood, "Feminists," Etc.

It truly is a Religion!

The Left haven't given up on God, they just created new gods. They worship the state and the social utopia that will never come. If you look at the Modern Social Justice Left, its Christianity in everything but name...

The rejection of individualism, and the belief in trans-individual values: God for religion, the human community for socialism
Both based on a wager! the Pascalian wager on the existence of God, the Marxist wager on the liberation of humanity
Both have a core of unprovable beliefs

White Privilege = Original Sin
Socialism = Heaven

Hallelujah!

Whole post is excellent.

Identical points can be made about fans of trump.

You need to read TD and notice the ways in which your fellow reactionaries act.

They even include bible quotes to back their pov.

Personally I think it is more like a cult. They will sacrifice anything, including their own kids, for it without question.

They are a danger to a decent society

Definitely a religion. I am yet to see a single “Christian” friend say that their faith must take priority over some nutso liberal position.

Murder a 9th month unborn child... Liberalism trumps Christianity;
A man IS a woman... Liberalism trumps Christianity;
and so on....

Liberalism Is a Religion - Change My Mind


The right wing has really twisted the idea of burden of proof. You don't get to simply make an absurd claim and put the burden on others to tell you right or wrong. Having said that, religion is defined as “any specific system of belief, worship, or conduct that prescribes certain responses to the existence (or non-existence) and character of God.”. Also, “a set of attitudes, beliefs, and practices pertaining to supernatural power.”

So no. Absurd rant must end.

It is, but liberals are so badly educated they don’t understand it. They can not comprehend it.

Ah, so you're agreeing that it's important that accusations must be proven, rather than simply assuming that allegations are factual.

Interesting.

I promise you that you don't want to do this. You guys keep hanging onto one example but I have dozens or hundreds that I can pull from. You might want to save that for a rainy day because I can obliterate you in that conversation
