Liberty cannot be established without morality, nor morality without faith.
Alexis de Tocqueville
This is where the left gets it wrong every time. They talk about freedom, but that's not what they really want, they want license; as in licentious: lacking legal or moral restraints; especially: disregarding sexual restraints: marked by disregard for strict rules of correctness. They want sexual freedom, freedom of "artistic" expression, freedom from rules and restrictions on personal boundaries. "If it feels good, do it". They do not want true economic freedom, freedom of thought and opinion (see what happens when you disagree with them), or religious freedom if anyone is free to "condemn" their licentiousness. In a truly free society, they may have their licentiousness, but the moral are also free to criticize them, correct them, or (heaven forbid) pray for them. This, they do not want.
John Adams said: "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other". Maybe this is why the left wants to "interpret" or even destroy the Constitution. They know it prevents them from their man-made utopia, which is an illusion. This world will never be made perfect by the efforts of men, and the closest we can come to it on our own is through faith in God.
Noah Webster, author of the first American Speller and the first Dictionary stated, "The moral principles and precepts contained in the scriptures ought to form the basis of all our civil constitutions and laws. . . All the miseries and evils which men suffer from vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery, and war, proceed from their despising or neglecting the precepts contained in the Bible."
Look at the "Occupy" movement. Look at what they are doing. What they are proposing. What they are rejecting. More and more photos, videos, and reports are coming out every day about the licentiousness, destruction of property, disregard for personal property and safety, and politics of envy and greed that define this "movement". It is ugly and it is evil.
I know this is getting redundant, but let me repeat: the only way this "movement" can achieve its purpose is by coercion, force, and violence or at the very least, the complete submission and enslavement of the free people of this country.
Anti-capitalist revolution?
Cost to taxpayers
"Occupiers" cost workers their wages
