Irreconcilable Differences

Yesterday, we reported on the “scandal” of Justice Samuel Alito suggesting that certain fundamental issues cannot be compromised and only one side can win the culture war. Here’s more evidence of the chasm that exists today.

The Pew Research Center recently asked this question: Is society better off if people make children and marriage a priority?

In the past, it would have been answered in the affirmative by massive majorities. But now, after years of the left attacking every norm, we have a big division over the family, the fundamental pillar of every society.

Only 19% of Biden voters agree with that statement. In contrast, 59% of Trump voters agree with that statement. But here’s the most depressing stat: Only 39% of all voters agree that children and marriage should be a priority.

History is absolutely clear: any society that does not prioritize bringing men and women together in marriage and reproducing itself is on its last legs.

Pew asked another revealing question: How much influence should the Bible have on the nation’s laws, if any?

Sixty-nine percent (69%) of Trump supporters said the Bible should have a great deal (36%) or some influence (33%) on our laws.

But the exact same percentage (69%) of Biden supporters said the Bible should have no influence (53%) or not very much (16%).

Why does this matter?

People who think the Bible should have little to no influence on our laws believe the separation of church and state should prevent Christians from holding public office.

And as we are seeing now with the absurd smears of “Christian nationalism,” those who say the Bible should have no influence quickly morph their religious bigotry into the belief that Christians are “a danger to democracy.”

Once again, pastors and Christians who say, “I’m not interested in politics because it’s divisive,” are sorely mistaken. The government and the neo-Marxist left are very interested in you!
