“By the Numbers” | Left and Right Religious Affiliation

Published by Papa Giorgio

I posted this on my Facebook (to the right) and TONY B made the following comment:

That’s not even a little bit true. The Lord rebuke you for, brother in Christ, for equating everyone on “the Left” as atheists. People vote Democrat or Republican for a variety of reasons, economic, social, political, etc. Most Christians aren’t even aware of the news item your meme mentions; are they atheists also? I voted Independent and Republican my entire life until Trump came along because I took the book of James seriously. Did you know the Bible says to mark those who cause division? Have you considered that you may have crossed the line into political idolatry? Respectfully, no man can serve two masters; whose words and methods do your words reflect?

Firstly, TONY B ascribed to me something not in the graphic nor anything I said. It reminded me of Dick Durbin doing the same when Bret Baier mentioned the DNC removing God from the platform.

However, let us compare the base of the left and the base of the right. As previously stated, the DNC did remove God from their Party platform, removed Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, and put in taxpayer funded abortions as a foundational fight. I assume it is because they have such a high number of atheists in the party. To wit… Pew has this:

In a post a few years back I noted this:

… Secular members were asked to identify their political persuasion, with 29 percent selecting “Democratic” and 36 percent selecting “progressive/liberal.” While that totals 65 percent, 21 percent selected Independent. On the flip side, only 1 percent identified as Republicans, with 3 percent selecting “Socialist/Marxist” and 3 percent selecting “Green.”

As the Democrat Party lurches more Leftward in their positions, on writer comments on why it may be this way (I will emphasize) – Washington Examiner Archived:

… Given the values and beliefs held dearest by the Democratic Party, it is hard not to agree. Radicals have gradually pushed it further left, which has also been shifting the goalposts of society in a more secular direction ever since the Progressive Era of the late 19th century. 

The Democratic Party has fully embraced feminism and its natural descendent, the LGBT movement. Both have propagated the idea that men and women are indistinguishable. This justifies the party’s attempts to mix and match the roles of the two sexes in society. They are opposed to the Christian idea that man and woman were made distinct from yet complementary to one another. 

By destroying marriage and the distinctions of the sexes, the party helped craft sexual activity into a vital expression of choice and liberation. These are the party values over the Christian practices of restraint and modesty. It has removed the incentives to abstain from sex and promoted perverse sexual behavior. In doing so, it has helped to normalize sexual depravity. 

The idol of abortion also affirms the desire of the Democratic Party to exempt society from taking responsibility for its actions. By dehumanizing children as “parasites” and framing abortion as a right, the party encourages people to blame others for their decisions to have sex. This is despite Christians asserting that all life is sacred and formed by God upon conception. 

Intersectionality has had a similar effect. The party has adopted a caste system based on what someone is or claims to be rather than who someone is or what they have done. This places those deemed “victims” over those deemed “oppressors,” while Christians view all humans as made with equal value by God. 

All of this derives from one source: pride. The Democratic Party lives and breathes on its prioritization of the self. …

Yep… self is what ends up being the case in secularism. One begins to act as God, and the Democrats are proving this in spades: from killing and selling baby parts on an open market, supporting an organization that kills babies even though they are modern day ethnic eugenicists, to banning free speech [by violence] and books, lowering fitness standards for the military, to nixing patriotism, creating anxiety by the failure to change climate, they celebrate murder, want more of it, the hubris of the left can be seen as well in thinking that they [politicians] can control weather (the sun) by legislation. Or changing gender by the stroke of a pen. Pride predates the fall.

I mark those division causers well…. What Does The Lesser of Two Evils Mean? (An Open Letter)

So while all Democrats or Democrat voters are not “atheists” or God haters, neither are a majority of Muslims Jihadists. In a short, spliced up version of the must watch OG video, Raheel Raza discusses the non-violent aspect s of the Muslim faith that support the inner circle of Jihadists. Whether knowingly [intending to] or not.

The same can be said of moderate to even blue-dog Democrats (almost non left in the Party, BTW). Dave Rubin, once of the Young Turks, has for years noted how Bill Maher is evolving, but, all the stuff he complains about on the Left is empowered by who he votes for.

So Bill would be in that outer ring. And when Tony votes Democrat, he is as well. Tony may be “pro-life,” believe in the historicity of Christianity and all the benefits that the Judeo-Christian worldview offers, etc. But all that s shown to not be in fact what he believes when he puts a ticket in for Democrats. (Related video, related post to the Prager vs. Maher thingy.)

And remember, we are talking about the base of the parties. Milton Friedman and Thomas Sowell — even though libertarians, always voted Republican. Because that is where their ideas had the most power and influence … at the root to affect the larger party. And here we are, small government freshman class of GOP and thinkers. Trump has gotten more small government ideas into mainstream and legislation [de-legislation] than Reagan ever did. Awesome.

And concern about killing Christians and the martyrdom in the world of Christians almost fully resides on the right. Why? Because we are packed full of Christians. Or those professing such. More than the atheist Left.

THE LEFT IS EVERYTHING PPL CALL THE GOP!

Candace Owens Gets Fact-Checked on Israel by Ami Kozak

I wanted to post some more recent videos that include critiques of Candace Owens. Her views on Israel have been emboldened by [maybe?] contact with Kanye, or others who hold to view of Israel that seems like they are siding with anti-Jewish forces – even if they are themselves not anti-Jewish.

A Green Beret RESPONDS to Dave Smith’s Question

In the wake of Dave Smith’s viral appearance on Joe Rogan, everyone’s talking about warfare, morality, and Israel. But most of the loudest voices—comedians, commentators, influencers—have never seen combat. In this clip, former Green Beret and military expert Nick Freitas explains why so many takes on Gaza and Israel—from Dave Smith and others—are not just wrong, but dangerously naive. He breaks down the real dynamics of asymmetric warfare, how groups like Hamas operate, and why civilian casualties aren’t always what they seem.

Richard Dawkins Terrified of Islamo-Fascism | Piers Morgan “Uncensored”

Published by Papa Giorgio

This short South Park clip will set the tone for the Richard Dawkins censoring himself in the face of Islamo-Fascism (via KNOW YOUR MEME):

I was listening to the Rubin Report at work yesterday, and had to post this video of atheists leaders bowing to Islam.

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” shares a DM clip of Richard Dawkins’ chilling appearance on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” which revealed how successful the Muslim’s world’s threats have been to any public figure critical of Islam when Dawkins refuses to comment on the case of the “ISIS bride.”

And a FLASHBACK to an old post [just days before coming over here to my .com] over at my BLOGSPOT:

After Comedy Central cut a portion of a South Park episode following a death threat from a radical Muslim group, Seattle cartoonist Molly Norris wanted to counter the fear. She has declared May 20th “Everybody Draw Mohammed Day.”

Norris told KIRO Radio’s Dave Ross that cartoonists are meant to challenge the lines of political correctness. “That’s a cartoonist’s job, to be non-PC.”

Producers of South Park said Thursday that Comedy Central removed a speech about intimidation and fear from their show after a radical Muslim group warned that they could be killed for insulting the Prophet Muhammad.

The group said it wasn’t threatening South Park producers Trey Parker and Matt Stone, but it included a gruesome picture of Theo Van Gogh, a Dutch filmmaker killed by a Muslim extremist in 2004, and said the producers could meet the same fate. The website posted the addresses of Comedy Central’s New York office and the California production studio where South Park is made.

“As a cartoonist I just felt so much passion about what had happened I wanted to kind of counter Comedy Central’s message they sent about feeling afraid,” Norris said.

Norris has asked other artists to submit drawings of any religious figure to be posted as part of Citizens Against Citizens Against Humor (CACAH) on May 20th.

On her website Norris explains this is not meant to disrespect any religion, but rather meant to protect people’s right to express themselves.

MSM’s Biggest Lies Backfire | Chamath Palihapitiya

Published by Papa Giorgio

RUBIN REPORT’s partial description…. see WHOLE show HERE:

  • Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to “Impact Theory’s” Tom Bilyeu and former CIA officer Mike Baker about Joe Rogan explaining to the “All-In Podcast’s” Chamath Palihapitiya how Democrat-run mainstream media’s biggest lies about Donald Trump are beginning to blow up in their faces….

As a side-note…. I have had luck showing people some of these biggest lies. They believe major instances by the mainstream media (MSM) and continue on as if it were true. It makes my job easier when I come up and have a meaningful discussion and show that Trump didn’t mock a disability of a reporter, or the facts on rapes and assaults on women who are making their way to the U.S. border. Or that Trump said the opposite of the “’Fine People’ trope [calling Nazis ‘fine people’]”, or that racists are voting for Trump en masse. Etc., Etc. Once people see how the media lied and tricked them, they start to be more open to policy discussion.

PART ONE >>

Sky News Australia host Rita Panahi has roasted some of Kamala Harris’ most outlandish public moments stating the presumptive Democratic nominee will say “just about anything” to get ahead. “One thing you can say about Kamala Harris is that despite her far-left belief system, she’s willing to say just about anything to get ahead,” Ms Panahi commented. “One minute she’s the defund the police, BLM, bail money raiser, and the next she’s presenting herself as the tough prosecutor that criminals fear.”

Sky News host Rita Panahi exposes the media’s attempts to “re-write” Kamala Harris’ history. “Apparently she was never the border czar, she never had the most left-wing voting record in the senate, and she was never considered a liability in the Biden administration,” Ms Panahi said.

I think Tapper knows he knew Biden was a wreck and getting worse for years… and he is trying to reclaim his “bias by omission” guilt, so he feels better about himself… and better about being a real reporter.

But Tapper kept the voice of the masses silent thru “censorship by omission.” Bias isn’t just WHAT YOU REPORT, but what anchors and orgs CHOOSE NOT TO AIR.

The Factual Feminist | Dave Rubin (+ Gender Wage Gap)

Published by Papa Giorgio

(Nov 27, 2015) Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Christina Hoff Sommers (Host of The Factual Feminist) about feminism, free speech and trigger warnings, Gamergate, cultural libertarians, and much more. Gender politics and discussions about equality have dominated the national conversation for the last few years. Is it possible to achieve perfect gender equality? What issues are trying to be addressed by feminism in the 21st century? If you’d like to hear about the current state of the feminist movement in the US as well as the state of human rights in other parts of the globe check out this playlist:

BONUS TOPIC: WAGE GAPS
Oldest to Newest

The Gender Wage Gap Uses Bogus Statistics | FACTUAL FEMINIST — The gender wage gap came into focus this week, but not in the way the White House wanted. A reporter asked about AEI’s study showing that Obama administration female staffers make only 88% of their male counterparts’ salaries. Christina Hoff Sommers examines spokesman Jay Carney’s response in this premiere episode of her video blog, “Factual Feminist.”

Is There Systematic Wage Discrimination Against Women? | FACTUAL FEMINIST — The Factual Feminist is back to answer your questions in this week’s mailbag! This week: Is there evidence of system-wide discrimination against women? Also, Christina responds to commenters who question her research because of where she works, and other questions.

Gender Activists Dismayed By This New Reason For The Wage Gap | FACTUAL FEMINIST — It is just not true that, for the same work, women earn 77 cents for every dollar a man earns. Factors such as college major, occupation and length of time in the workplace explain most of the pay gap. AEI’s Sally Satel explains the discovery of another factor contributing to that gap.

World Cup Pay Gap: Here’s Why It’s Justified | FACTUAL FEMINIST — Critics are up in arms about the World Cup gender gap. The prize money for women is far less than for men. Commentators attribute the gap to sexism and structural inequities. Could they be right? Let’s review the evidence.

 

Cultural Christianity: One | Secularism: Zero (New Atheism Fails)

Published by Papa Giorgio

Okay, let’s get this party started… right? I had seen a blip of Dawkins admitting — and it really is an admission of sorts — that what Christ wrought [as a worldview] is CULTURALLY what he [Dawkins] prefers to live under. He says he prefers this over Islam, but note, he didn’t mention he would rather live under some atheistic program.

Why?

Because when dialectical materialism comes about as a worldview embedded into government, what do we get? (PDF version of the below)

A recent comprehensive compilation of the history of human warfare, Encyclopedia of Wars by Charles Phillips and Alan Axelrod documents 1763 wars, of which 123 have been classified to involve a religious conflict. So, what atheists have considered to be ‘most’ really amounts to less than 7% of all wars. It is interesting to note that 66 of these wars (more than 50%) involved Islam, which did not even exist as a religion for the first 3,000 years of recorded human warfare. Even the Seven Years’ War, widely recognized to be “religious” in motivation, noting that the warring factions were not necessarily split along confessional lines as much as along secular interests.

CHRISTIANITY (Crusades)

  • 9 Total Crusades from 1095-1272 A.D;
  • The crusades lasted about 177 years;
  • bout 1-million deaths – this includes: disease, the selling into slavery, and died en-route to the Holy land;
  • About 5,650 deaths a year.

(More visual info HERE)

ATHEISM (Stalin)

  • His rise to power in 1927 lasted until his death in 1953;
  • Stalin’s reign was 26-years;
  • Middle road estimates of deaths are from 20-million to a high of 60-milion;
  • That clocks in at about 1,923,076 deaths a year.

(Some put the death toll per-week by Stalin at 40,000 every week — even during “peacetime” [IBT])

ATHEISM (Mao)

  • His rise to power was in 1949 until his death in 1976;
  • Mao’s reign was 27-years;
  • HOWEVER, the “Great Leap Forward” was 4-years (1958 to 1962);
  • While Mao killed about 78-million people, in just 4-years he killed 45-million people
  • That is almost 31,000 a day — killed — for four years.

ISLAM (killing just Hindus)

  • From 1000 (conquest of Afghanistan) to 1525 (end of Delhi Sultanate);
  • 80-million killed;
  • 160,000 a year.

[BTW, over 270 million people have been killed by Islam, over a hundred millions blacks on the Continent of Africa — for the #woke crowd’s knowledge Muhammad was racist to the bone.]

… a minimum of 28 million African were enslaved in the Muslim Middle East.  Since, at least, 80 percent of those captured by Muslim slave traders were calculated to have died before reaching the slave market, it is believed that the death toll from 1400 years of Arab and Muslim slave raids into Africa could have been as high as 112 Million.  When added to the number of those sold in the slave markets, the total number of African victims of the trans-Saharan and East African slave trade could be significantly higher than 140 million people. – John Allembillah Azumah, author of The Legacy of Arab-Islam in Africa: A Quest for Inter-religious Dialogue

As an aside… about 5.714 [yes, point] people were killed a year by the Spanish Inquisition [if you take the highest number] over its 350-year long stretch if you use the leading historian on the topic.

Another aside: the Crusades were largely an operation to free people, whereas Islamic caliphates [jihad] were to convert and enslave people.

MORE via my site, RELIGIO-POLITICAL TALK

AGAIN, to be clear via STAND TO REASON:

  • Not only were students able to demonstrate the paucity of evidence for this claim, but we helped them discover that the facts of history show the opposite: religion is the cause of a very small minority of wars. Phillips and Axelrod’s three-volume Encyclopedia of Wars lays out the simple facts. In 5 millennia worth of wars—1,763 total—only 123 (or about 7%) were religious in nature (according to author Vox Day in the book The Irrational Atheist). If you remove the 66 wars waged in the name of Islam, it cuts the number down to a little more than 3%. A second [5-volume] scholarly source, The Encyclopedia of War edited by Gordon Martel, confirms this data, concluding that only 6% of the wars listed in its pages can be labelled religious wars. Thirdly, William Cavanaugh’s book, The Myth of Religious Violence, exposes the “wars of religion” claim. And finally, a recent report (2014) from the Institute for Economics and Peace further debunks this myth.

In other words, the culturally Christian West seems to diminish the propensity to “war.”

WHICH may be part of the issue, as well as culturally where we are headed with “gender,” “climate legislation/regulation,” “free-speech,” and the like that are bringing a consensus of sorts on the idea of the positive attributes of the Judeo-Christian worldview. Which leads me to my next example… a recent ATLANTIC article. Mr. Thompson starts the article thus:

  • As an agnostic, I have spent most of my life thinking about the decline of faith in America in mostly positive terms. Organized religion seemed, to me, beset by scandal and entangled in noxious politics. So, I thought, what is there really to mourn? Only in the past few years have I come around to a different view. Maybe religion, for all of its faults, works a bit like a retaining wall to hold back the destabilizing pressure of American hyper-individualism, which threatens to swell and spill over in its absence.

Here, ARMSTRONG & GETTY discuss the article, as two non-believers/cultural Christians themselves:

As they were discussing the issue, I was thinking of this well worn quote from G.K. Chesterton: “Don’t ever take a fence down until you know the reason it was put up.” You should read the entire ATLANTIC article.

Bill Maher recently noted the following:

  • For all the progressives and academics who refer to Israel as an outpost of Western civilization, like it’s a bad thing, please note: Western civilization is what gave the world pretty much every [expletive] liberal precept that liberals are supposed to adore. Individual liberty, scientific inquiry, rule of law, religious freedom, women’s rights, human rights, democracy, trial by jury, freedom of speech. Please, somebody, stop us before we enlighten again. 

Western civ is basically the Greco-Roman/Judaica-Christianity stream of influence. The CHRISTIAN POST, after quoting Maher, finishes their story:

  • Which, in fact, brings up just what Bill Maher left out in his otherwise thoughtful and compelling monologue. As you might expect from the guy behind the faith-despising faux-documentary Religulous, he’s not quite ready to admit the role of religion in cultivating liberty and human rights. Because Voltaire and Rousseau were anti-religious, they are safe to mention. Locke and King are often praised almost in spite of their deep faith, which Maher never mentioned. 

For more on the video to the right, see my post:

And it is this failure for community, freedom, and following the science (gender) that is chasing people away from secularism… into Western Foundations.

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Frank Turek author of “I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist” about the collapse of the New Atheist movement; Richard Dawkins admitting that religion may be necessary for a flourishing society; the failure of atheism in providing a sense of purpose and meaning; what prominent atheists like Christopher Hitchens and Sam Harris overlooked; how only religions like Christianity and Judaism can protect a society from the worst elements of radical Islam; the spreading of social justice and woke culture in America’s churches; the case for intelligent design as a part of the story of evolution; how morality always ends up being legislated; Jordan Peterson’s utilitarian view of religion; and much more.

CROSS EXAMINED NOTED: Yes, we know that Dave Rubin is an openly gay man. CrossExamined.org does not always agree with and affirm all the held beliefs of our guests. Dave did not agree with everything Frank said when he was on The Rubin Report last month either. However, it is good to have dialogue and ask questions of non-Christian guests to see if they are open to Christ, as you will hear Frank do with Dave. We also welcome guests who can add value to specific topics on which we do agree. Despite our noted disagreements, Dave gets a lot right.

I will end with this article I found to be an interesting and pleasant read… this is how it ends:

From Relativism to Wokism: A Path of Confusion, Fallacy and Self-Destruction

Society appears to have come a long way from initially professing relativism, which rejects any and all standards of truth including moral, to eventually embracing wokism – an utterly aggressive force of imposed “moralistic” judgment. Semantically different, these concepts are actually homogeneous. When objective truth is denied, its place does not remain empty; it is swiftly occupied by opinions and beliefs of the “self,” either formed by individuals themselves or, more commonly, enforced through educational, group and/or societal indoctrination. People who do not love truth or are precluded from seeking it will find themselves confused, easily manipulated and ultimately deceived.

The tree is always known by its fruit.

Parents, Get Out Of California! (Scott Wilk | Dave Rubin)

Published by Papa Giorgio

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” shares a clip of California’s Lori Wilson pushing to pass bill AB 957 which will mandate gender affirming care for trans kids even if it is against the parents wishes.

Scott Wilk, like Dave Rubin above, sounds a parental warning… get out of California! (THE DAILY WIRE)

A Republican California lawmaker warned families to escape from the Golden State after legislators advanced a bill on Tuesday that would accuse parents of child abuse if they refuse to “affirm” their children’s so-called gender identity.

Senator Scott Wilk (R-Antelope Valley) sounded the alarm during a hearing late Tuesday night when the Senate Judiciary Committee voted 8-1 to advance Assembly Bill 957, which rewrites much of the state’s family law and classifies “a parent’s affirmation of the child’s gender identity as part of the health, safety, and welfare of the child.”

“In the past, when we’ve had these discussions, and I’ve seen parental rights atrophy, I’ve encouraged people to keep fighting,” Wilk said. “I’ve changed my mind on that — if you love your children, you need to flee California. You need to flee.”

The bill amends Section 3011 of the Family Code, which deals with child custody disputes, and requires that a court determining the “best interests” of the child must consider the affirmation of a so-called transgender identity. If a parent were to deny the child’s “gender identity,” it would be a violation of the child’s health, safety, and welfare — equivalent to child abuse.

Because the bill changes the definition of what constitutes the “health, safety, and welfare” of a child, any organization interacting with children — including schools, churches, and hospitals — would be required to affirm gender transitions in minors…..

POST MILLENNIAL has more about Boston Children’s Hospital:

Boston Children’s Hospital boasts about having the first pediatric transgender surgery center in the country offering a “full suite of surgical options for transgender teens.”

Boston Children’s Hospital promotes their surgeries through a video series on their official YouTube channel, with titles like “What You Need To Know Before Phalloplasty Surgery.” The 90 videos in the series paint a rosy picture of the genital, chest and face surgeries they offer, accompanied by upbeat background music.  

Chris Elston, otherwise known as “Billboard Chris,” shared a tweet on Tuesday of a video in the Children’s Hospital playlist called “What happens during a gender-affirming hysterectomy?”

In that video, Dr. Frances Grimstad describes the process of getting a “gender affirming hysterectomy.”

It is “very similar to most hysterectomies that occur. Hysterectomy itself is the removal of the uterus, cervix, which is the opening of the uterus, and the the fallopian tubes which are attached to the sides of the uterus,” Grimstad says with a smile. Grimstad says that some “gender affirming hysterectomies will also include the removal of the ovaries,” in short, the entire female reproductive system.

[….]

A bulletin on the Children’s Hospital Gender Multispecialty Service (GeMS) homepage reads, “At Boston Children’s, we are proud to be home to the first pediatric and adolescent transgender health program in the United States” that has treated “more than 1,000 families to date.”

Boston Children’s Hospital founded the Gender Multispecialty Service (GeMs) program in 2007 and welcomes patients as young as 3 years old. “At GeMS, our mission is to assess and care for gender-diverse children, teens, and young adults.”

GeMS provides “a variety of options for medical transition” that include prescribing puberty blockers, testosterone, estrogen and plastic surgery from their surgery center. “Our skilled team includes specialists in plastic surgery, urology, endocrinology, nursing, gender management, and social work, who collaborate to provide a full suite of surgical options for transgender teens and young adults,” the website reads.

[….]

But Safer cites a conceptually flawed study which he claims is proof that “gender identity is rooted in biology” that changed his mind. “Which makes it so logical that an option for people in 2016 is to change the external appearance to meet that gender identity,” he said.

The WPATH lists surgical complications of genital surgeries in their Standards of Care guidelines. Vaginoplasties may incur “complete or partial necrosis of the vagina and labia, fistulas from the bladder or bowel into the vagina, stenosis of the urethra, and vaginas that are either too short or too small for coitus.”

WPATH warns that patients who obtain phalloplasty may suffer “frequent urinary tract stenoses and fistulas, and occasionally necrosis of the neophallus. Metoidioplasty results in a micropenis, without the capacity for standing urination. Phalloplasty, using a pedicled or a free vascularized flap, is a lengthy, multi-stage procedure with significant morbidity that includes frequent urinary complications and unavoidable donor site scarring,”

Amir Taghinia, a plastic surgeon who is a member of Boston Children’s transgender surgery team, says that 30 to 50 percent of phalloplasty patients seek treatment for a blocked or leaking urethra.

“UNRELATED”

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” shares a clip of detransitioner Chloe Cole sharing her heartbreaking story of how she was fast tracked into transgender surgery. Her testimony was given to fight Scott Wiener’s SB 107 proposal to make California a sanctuary state for trans kids escaping the trans healthcare bans in red states and provide gender affirming care for any kid who wants it.
