Offsite Post: ‘Louisiana Freedom Caucus Needs a Little More Muscle in Easter Defense’

 

The Louisiana Freedom Caucus’s response to the Biden administration’s desecration of Easter Sunday is a disappointment.  On the positive side, there is a rousing denunciation of the Biden proclamation of the Transgender Day of Visibility:

 

 . . . we find it abhorrent that the Biden Administration would select the holiest day of the Christian year—Easter—to proclaim a day of commemoration for something else. As believers, we find it as an affront to our sacred tradition of worshiping our resurrected Lord that the Biden Administration would co-mingle Easter with another event entirely.

But it also veers off into the morass of relativism:

 

After almost 250 years as a republic and as the lighthouse for freedom around world, the United States has grown into a mosaic of faiths where all are protected and all should be respected and treated equally under the law. Certainly, people of the Christian tradition are a majority in this country, but our very ethos mandates we accept people of other faiths to live and practice in peace and without governmental interference. Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, Bahai’s, Zoroastrians and so many others have the same rights as Christians in this country. And so do people who have no faith traditions. Agnostics, Atheists, Deists and others have the right to practice, or not to practice, but most importantly, to be left alone to do as their conscience and tradition dictates.

This is one of the major downsides to life in the United States, this naïve view of human society, that people of any and all religions can coexist peacefully together if they ‘love freedom’ or some such thing as that.  Let us look at some of the aspects of the religious faiths mentioned above to demonstrate the falsity of this idea.

Hinduism, if lived consistently here in the States, would produce the following:

-A rigid caste system;

-The honoring of a god of destruction, Shiva;

-Self-immolation of widows (Sati Pratha); and

-The acceptance of LGBT rights.

Islam, if lived consistently, would beget

-Sharia law;

-Subjugation of Christians and Jews;

-The denial that Jesus Christ is the Son of God;

-Marriage of children to adults;

-Barbaric criminal punishments;

-Violent war against people adhering to faiths outside of the House of Islam; and

-Polygamy.

In Zoroastrianism, we find the belief that evil is either co-eternal with good, or is the child of the supreme god.

And while it is not mentioned, religious freedom as defined above also implies that satanism must be fully respected also, with its literal sacrament of abortion, etc.

All of this is inconsistent (to say it mildly) with the inheritance of the States from western Europe – Christianity, English common law, the laws of Emperor St. Justinian, etc.  . . .
