See What Progressives Are Doing to the 10 Commandments

Have you ever considered how the terms “reproductive rights”, “sexual freedom” and “wealth redistribution” or “equity” are essentially opposite re-framings of Christian taboos from the Ten Commandments? They are terms that the “progressive” left (or regressive left, depending on your point of view) has succeeded in normalizing, even idealizing for many people. The terms are made to sound nice, friendly, and idealistic, yet they are direct disobedience to the Ten Commandments!

Think about these terms for a minute. Commandment 5, “Thou shalt not murder”, is the Judeo-Christian First-Principle which refutes “reproductive rights”. Commandment 6, “Thou shalt not commit adultery”, is the First-Principle of Judeo-Christian culture which has stood against so-called “sexual freedom”. Martin Luther in his Small Catechism says this about the Sixth Commandment: “We should fear and love God so that we lead a sexually pure and decent life in what we say and do, and husband and wife honor each other.”

Indeed, all the Commandments have far-reaching implications. Commandment 7, “Thou shalt not steal”, is the Principle which refutes the Marxist idea of “wealth redistribution” or “equity”, the basis for “social justice” in its leftist understanding of equal distribution of resources and opportunities.

Top universities and bright students have been dominated by Marxist-Humanist worldviews for many years now, worldviews opposed to a traditional biblical view – and they have become leaders in modern institutions and culture. Marxist and Humanist worldviews are both grounded in the theory of evolution and are, in fact, godless at the root. The evils which have been justified in the modern scientific era by these worldviews – such as the many genocides of communism and the sexual perversities we now see being normalized – are due to the subverting of Christian values which the acceptance of a materialist worldview has made intellectually viable.
