I am sick and tired of the liberal occupation of the World. Okay, maybe occupation is a strong word, but what else would you call it. In Denmark, the high-court ruled that a political party, based on the platform that the legal age for sexual consent be lowered to 12 (leading to total abolishment in the future), is legal and approved to join the political arena.

The "slippery-slope" theory that says that when you allow one exception to morality, you will eventually demoralize everything is coming true. Look no further than the gay-marriage issue. For what it's worth, my personal belief is that I could care less what people do behind closed doors. If two homosexuals love each other, let them be. However, changing the rules and calling their union "marriage" is wrong. If you're worried about health benefits and the like, I'm all for "civil unions". But don't force me to accept a lifestyle that as a religious and observant Jew I find immoral.

But once we accept "sex-marriage" in America, how can we not allow bigamy? Unfortunately, too many on the right use the example of beastiality, which obviously can not be consensual. That just makes those who argue because of it sound foolish. But bigamy doesn't. If we, as a society, are to make our own moral judgments, who decides what's wrong or right. The problem with liberalism, as I see it, is it's inability to draw that distinction. Sure, we can say that killing is wrong, but who are we to say what's right or wrong for someone else.

With gay marriage, the liberals tell us it's okay. What about bigamy? If I can marry another man, why can't I marry two women (aside for the obvious stress of ONE wife)? Who is to say I can't marry my sister (sorry, Debbie)? Who's to say that 12 should be the legal age of consent? Maybe it should be 10, or even 3?

Where do we draw the line.

Many liberals are aghast at the idea of a religion-based life. Even though liberalism itself is a religion, liberals don't see it. Liberals have decided that G-d and evolution don't mesh, so they've outlawed all references to G-d in schools. You can talk about the "fact" that a man and a monkey are the same (and women won't disagree either), and you can talk about the "fact" that their was a "big bang" to start the world, but utter the G-word and you get expelled.

When I was in college, I was taught that the university was the place where nothing was taboo. Ideas were presented and you were given the opportunity to make your own decisions and mold your own opinions based on all the lessons taught.

Boy has that changed. Good luck finding a professor who will allow you to disagree with his core belief. It's as if you are going to a school in Saudi Arabia, where the teaching of anything contradictory is not allowed. Sure, you can bring up the subject, but you will pay the consequences.

Earlier in the month, I learned that the University of Wisconsin has hired a teacher, Kevin Barrett, to teach an introductory class on Islam. While I could applaud the hiring of a teacher to help shape the minds of our youth, the school went overboard in their desire for a balanced approach. Mr. Barrett, who is scheduled to teach an introductory class on Islam at UW-Madison this Fall, claims that the US Government (not Al Qaeda) planned and carried out the attacks that destroyed the World Trade Center and damaged the Pentagon, costing nearly 3,000 American lives. Barrett has said that he discusses his beliefs about 9/11 in the classroom. In his own words "....We discuss the compelling evidence that 9/11 was an inside job.....".

This, the college allows. But a few months ago, a right-wing Middle-East expert, and a member of President Bush's Middle-East advisory committee, who spoke out against Hamas attacks on innocent Israelis was un-invited because the school felt it had a "safety concern". Why do you suppose there was that concern? Could it be the fact that the same university has promoted anti-Israel and anti-American marches to take place? Consider the fact that the school is a public university, which you and I pay for.

Do you really want to know why "they" hate us? It's not too hard to realize. Oh, yeah, that hate us for being friendly to Israel, but they'd hate us anyway. They hate us because "we" are not Muslim. Period. End of story. Unless we all convert to Islam and pray to Mecca five times a day, they will continue to hate us.

We have two choices. We either weaken ourselves by allowing ourselves to be taught that WE are the reason they hate us, or we strengthen ourselves and say no to anyone who wishes to destroy the Judeo-Christian values that we were founded upon. Each little exception towards that slippery-slope is one more notch in the belt of the Islamofacists who would kill Kevin Barrett just as quickly as he would anyone else.

The Bible tells of the story of Korach. He also figured that by being "nice" to his Egyptian captors, that if he kept tabs on the Jews for them, he would be rewarded. Yet, when it came to the Exodus, he was shoved out like the rest of the Jews. But even when he was free, he continued his sabotaging of his fellow Jews, until G-d had enough and destroyed him and his followers. History repeats this story over and over again. Think about the Jews who figured they would help the Nazi's when they came to power. They were gassed as well.

We are letting the Nazis in and by ignoring it - in the name of liberalism - we will all fail to react until it's too late. Liberalism is destroying this country (and the world) from the inside. As with the British who thought the Nazis only wanted the Sudenteland, we too will learn our lesson too late. This time, America will be too weak to help. She'll be the victim.
Who draws the line?
