Another outstanding essay from Dennis Prager.
First of all, it is so important to look at leftism as a religion-this is key to understanding the mentality. But he really lays out the issues in simple terms.
"Leftism seeks to undo most of the values that are distinct to
Judeo-Christian religion. The Left has always been anti-religious, and
especially anti-Christian. Karl Marx understood that a vibrant leftism
and a vibrant Christianity could not coexist. He was right."
"Two of the many areas of conflict between Judeo-Christian values and
leftism concern the separation between the holy and the profane and the
separation between humans and animals."
"The essence of the Hebrew Bible, transmitted by Christianity, is
separation: between life and death, nature and God, good and evil, man
and woman, and the holy and the profane. The reasons to oppose public nudity emanate from this Judeo-Christian list of separations."
