When liberalism meets Chrstianity, the Bible is reduced to the “nice passages, and there is wide denial of evil, the demonic and Satan, as well as Hell. The liberal mind does not have a place for evil; liberals simply can’t deal with it. Why is that? Perhaps it has to do with a rebellious spirit that will not be told how to behave. And if they deny absolute evil and absolute good, they can live with moral relativism and be their own moral compass. They can be “free” to live in the kind of moral rebellion that is really imprisonment by one’s own desires

Let us Prey,” p. 206, Publish America, 2005).

“So much of left-wing thought is a kind of playing with fire by people who don’t even know that fire is hot.” George Orwell quotes
