The Left Loses Ground...

The extremist rightwing overreach with insane legislation like the RFRA has hurt the religious right.

Instead of achieving their theocratic goals they alienated corporations who chose to take their business elsewhere rather than risk losing customers nationwide.

As a theist PR exercise it was a complete and utter failure of monumental proportions.

To pretend otherwise, as the OP is trying to do, just exposes the fact that those who use religion as a cudgel to impose their bigotry on We the People are completely out of touch with reality.

This former Belmont University soccer coach was fired in December 2010 after she came out to her soccer team that she is a lesbian and announced that she and her partner were expecting their first child. While the university’s official statement at first said that she had resigned, it was soon amended to say that the decision had been mutual, and that her continuing to work for Belmont would not be beneficial to her or the university. Demonstrators protested Howe’s termination, as she was a highly successful and popular coach, and they called for an official apology, which they never received. Although Belmont had terminated its ties with the Tennessee Baptist Church in 2007, chairman of Belmont’s board of trustees Marty Dickens told The Tennessean that, “We expect people to commit themselves to high moral and ethical standards within a Christian context.” -

So I'm ahead 2 - 1.

Your turn.
So you would force religious based institutions to hire homosexuals? In the first link "she and her partner" aren't expecting any child, not possible. That would be She and whoever the sperm donor is.... or her partner and whoever the sperm donor is. It's so confusing these days though. What are there 5 or 6 sexes now?:slap:
 
Hitler's agenda was:
1) Nationalism...ULTRA nationalism. Hitler used religious reasoning to justify his own policies. Hitler focused on how the Aryan people had a "Christian heritage" with principles that must be adhered in order to rebuild the country.

2) Militarism...Hitler greatly increased the portion of the German economy devoted to military spending and further believed that the best defense was a good offense.

3) Purging Germany of undesirables...
a) Jews
b) homosexuals
c) Hitler outlawed labor unions in Germany

PLEASE highlight the 'progressive' agenda pea brain?

You left out socialism. Furthermore, Eugenics was a progressive creation.

That's pretty much the same agenda FDR had.

There was no 'socialism' in NAZI Germany...

Hitler worked with the industrialist of Germany and allowed a tremendous profit incentive to remain. The Nazis were a socialist party in name only. The State did not take over all the major factors of production in the German economy which is the hallmark trait of socialist state. In addition when Hitler did use government to control the economy he used his dictatorial powers and terror as the means of control. Progressives like Teddy Roosevelt used the democratic process to allow more government control of the economy. Hitler could literally use the army to take over a business. Roosevelt used his Justice Department to break up trusts using the laws enacted by an elected legislature. There is a tremendous difference between the two....ref
You dont understand socialism. Or Nazism. Or a dozen other things. But that doesnt mean you can't spout an opinion about them.
It's what makes America great--idiots sounding off about shit they know nothing about.

Let's see..I provided proof, and you provided emotes and insults...

You claim Hitler was a 'progressive'...and bripat claims Hitler was a socialist...

Yet in 1927 Hitler wrote a pamphlet entitled The Road to Resurgence only meant for the eyes of the top industrialists in Germany to argue that "capitalists had worked their way to the top through their capacity, and on the basis of this selection they have the right to lead." Hitler claimed that national socialism meant all people doing their best for society and posed no threat to the wealth of the rich.

Hitler expressly attacked Marxists, socialism and 'progressives', called for a 'meritocracy' and exalts 'individual personality'


excerpts:

The survival and the future of the various folk groups on this earth depend on:

1. The merit of their own race;

2. The extent to which they accord significance to the role of the individual personality;

3. Recognition of the fact that life in this universe is synonymous with struggle. It is, however, precisely the repudiation of these three great laws to which I attribute our present-day decline rather than to all the petty failures of our current political leadership.

Instead of raising aloft the merits of race and folk, millions of our folk pay homage to the idea of internationality.


The strength and genius of the individual personality are, in line with the absurd nature of democracy, being set aside in favor of majority rule, which amounts to nothing more than weakness and stupidity.

And rather than recognize and affirm the necessity of struggle, people are preaching theories of pacifism, reconciliation among nations, and eternal peace.

...


The National Socialist movement is no parliamentary party. It does not expect that questions involving the fate of the German nation could ever be resolved by majority rule. It is convinced that the spirit it advocates will one day become the spirit of that institution which is all that remains of the old army and, at the same time, the school for the future. The organisation of the military might of a folk, be it large or small, is always intimately connected with a doctrine of the value of individual personality, struggle, and patriotism. Unintentionally and unconsciously, to the extent that the official state becomes more and more corrupt in its folkish content, discredited by its personnel, and filled with pacifistic cowardice, the movement and the army will draw ever closer together.


In these seven years of progressive deformation of the German national body, a state within the state has slowly evolved which ideologically as well as politically will be the Prussia of the coming era.
Stalin preached international socialism.
Hitler preached national socialism.
There was little difference between them.
Hitler's Germany provided a social safety net with cradle to grave benefits (granted, a lot of that he inherited from Bismark). His unions worked hand in hand with industry and government, creating a tight relationship among the three entities. He believed in state planning of the economy.
Hitler was popular with progressives in the US when he started out. Even the Blue Eagle of the NRA was taken from the Nazis.

Hitler preached ULTRA-nationalism, not socialism. He DESPISED Marxists. Hitler BANNED trade unions and union leaders were arrested.

Socialism is NOT a dictatorship...it is a social and economic system characterized by social ownership of the means of production and co-operative management of the economy, as well as a political theory and movement that aims at the establishment of such a system.

You clearly don't understand the difference between socialism, communism and fascism.

Seriously though, if it's church or the like whose primary function is religion, then they should get narrow exemptions. Like if you don't want your organist to be gay, fair enough.

Otherwise, if you're a business or an organization engaged in secular functions, no, you don't get to be above the law.

"As socialists, we are opponents of the Jews, because we see, in the Hebrews, the incarnation of capitalism, of the misuse of the nations goods". - Joseph Goebbels


"Let us consider the actual, worldly Jew .. not the Sabbath Jew, .. the everyday Jew. Let us not look for the secret of the Jew in his religion, but let us look for the secret of his religion in the real Jew. What is the secular basis of Judaism? .. self-interest. What is the worldly religion of the Jew? Huckstering. What is his worldly God? Money. Very well then! Emancipation from huckstering and money, consequently from practical, real Jewry, would be the self-emancipation of our time.... emancipation of the Jews is the emancipation of mankind from Jewry". - Marx

"...This collection of capitalist interests on the one hand, Jewish instincts of hatred and the emigrants' lust for revenge, succeeded in increasingly beclouding the world".. Hitler


"They can wage wars for their capitalist interests, but in the end these wars will open the way for social risings within the nations" - Hitler

German Philosopher Theodor Adorno, strongly influenced the Left. He devised a scale known as the "F" scale which has been utilized to associate conservative elements of society as fascist. However, as is so frequently the case, his F scale was a twist of reality and a blatant oxymoron. The Adorno F scale is used to frame conservatives, and any opposed to Socialism as Nazis and latent fascists. The fascist label has come to mean anyone the liberal progressive sociofascists seek to defame or discredit.

He literally lifted that nonsense from Stalin, who was at war with the fascists, and tended to refer to all political enemies, perceived or otherwise: as fascist; including Leon Trotsky... a lifetime communist... and given the one degree of separation between Histler's fascism and Stalinism, the Left which took most of its cues from Stalinism, Adorno simply used that intellectual bankruptcy as a basis to publish yet another invalid Leftist point.

BTW: It's good to see ya back in the game.

Roosevelt used his Justice Department to break up trusts using the laws enacted by an elected legislature. There is a tremendous difference between the two....ref
You dont understand socialism. Or Nazism. Or a dozen other things. But that doesnt mean you can't spout an opinion about them.
It's what makes America great--idiots sounding off about shit they know nothing about.

Let's see..I provided proof, and you provided emotes and insults...

You claim Hitler was a 'progressive'...and bripat claims Hitler was a socialist...

Yet in 1927 Hitler wrote a pamphlet entitled The Road to Resurgence only meant for the eyes of the top industrialists in Germany to argue that "capitalists had worked their way to the top through their capacity, and on the basis of this selection they have the right to lead." Hitler claimed that national socialism meant all people doing their best for society and posed no threat to the wealth of the rich.

Hitler expressly attacked Marxists, socialism and 'progressives', called for a 'meritocracy' and exalts 'individual personality'


excerpts:

The survival and the future of the various folk groups on this earth depend on:

1. The merit of their own race;

2. The extent to which they accord significance to the role of the individual personality;

3. Recognition of the fact that life in this universe is synonymous with struggle. It is, however, precisely the repudiation of these three great laws to which I attribute our present-day decline rather than to all the petty failures of our current political leadership.

Instead of raising aloft the merits of race and folk, millions of our folk pay homage to the idea of internationality.


The strength and genius of the individual personality are, in line with the absurd nature of democracy, being set aside in favor of majority rule, which amounts to nothing more than weakness and stupidity.

And rather than recognize and affirm the necessity of struggle, people are preaching theories of pacifism, reconciliation among nations, and eternal peace.

...


The National Socialist movement is no parliamentary party. It does not expect that questions involving the fate of the German nation could ever be resolved by majority rule. It is convinced that the spirit it advocates will one day become the spirit of that institution which is all that remains of the old army and, at the same time, the school for the future. The organisation of the military might of a folk, be it large or small, is always intimately connected with a doctrine of the value of individual personality, struggle, and patriotism. Unintentionally and unconsciously, to the extent that the official state becomes more and more corrupt in its folkish content, discredited by its personnel, and filled with pacifistic cowardice, the movement and the army will draw ever closer together.


In these seven years of progressive deformation of the German national body, a state within the state has slowly evolved which ideologically as well as politically will be the Prussia of the coming era.
Stalin preached international socialism.
Hitler preached national socialism.
There was little difference between them.
Hitler's Germany provided a social safety net with cradle to grave benefits (granted, a lot of that he inherited from Bismark). His unions worked hand in hand with industry and government, creating a tight relationship among the three entities. He believed in state planning of the economy.
Hitler was popular with progressives in the US when he started out. Even the Blue Eagle of the NRA was taken from the Nazis.

Hitler preached ULTRA-nationalism, not socialism. He DESPISED Marxists. Hitler BANNED trade unions and union leaders were arrested.

Socialism is NOT a dictatorship...it is a social and economic system characterized by social ownership of the means of production and co-operative management of the economy, as well as a political theory and movement that aims at the establishment of such a system.

You clearly don't understand the difference between socialism, communism and fascism.

They are all big government tyrannies. What you leftist love

Liberals don't support government tyrannies...conservatives do...

Conservatives have NEVER GIVEN US LESS GOVERNMENT...EVER...

I will REPEAT...

He claimed I lied by saying that most Catholics supported birth control...

No Gilligan, I stated as FACT that you lied... I then challenged you to post the evidence you used to advance your assertion, which merely provided that fact with unnecessary validation, which you were more than happy to provide, through your feckless google search... which substantiated the fact that at the time you asserted the falsehood, you had no information to stand upon, supporting such.

But... in your defense, as an imbecile, there was no way you could have known that.

Evidence was posted, in contrast to your 'lie' about the percent of people who are gay, for which you posted no evidence.


The Difference between National Socialism and International Socialism is that International Socialism seeks to strip all sense of nation, heritage and tradition... seeking one united international state. Which Mussolini finally came to recognize as untenable, when he formed the fascist party under National Socialism, which seized upon Italy's National heritage and traditions, hijacking such, in the name of socialism.

The Fascist/National Socialism exercise was widely hailed by Lenin, prior to his death... who said such was the future of socialism.

Histler glommed upon that narrative and came to raging success, applauded around the socialist world, particularly in the United States by every stripe of socialist, and was hailed as a marvel of the modern world by rock stars the like of Lindbergh, and institutions such as Columbia University who paid for Mussolini to visit the US.

The Ideological Left's kinship with European Fascism is undeniable, except in the irrational ranks of the Left itself, who, as has been noted here many times... who simply choose to deny reality; because reality conflicts diametrically with it's core subjective need.

There was no 'socialism' in NAZI Germany...

Hitler worked with the industrialist of Germany and allowed a tremendous profit incentive to remain. The Nazis were a socialist party in name only. The State did not take over all the major factors of production in the German economy which is the hallmark trait of socialist state. In addition when Hitler did use government to control the economy he used his dictatorial powers and terror as the means of control. Progressives like Teddy Roosevelt used the democratic process to allow more government control of the economy. Hitler could literally use the army to take over a business.

You are right comparing Hitler and Stalin...both were right wing dictators...

Socialism is liberal. More people (preferably everyone) have some say in how the economy works. Democracy is liberal. More people (preferably everyone) have some say in how the government works. "Democracy," said Marx, "is the road to socialism." He was wrong about how economics and politics interact, but he did see their similar underpinnings.

Communism is conservative. Fewer and fewer people (preferably just the Party Secretary) have any say in how the economy works. Republicans are conservative. Fewer and fewer people (preferably just people controlling the Party figurehead) have any say in how the government works. The conservatives in the US are in the same position as the communists in the 30s, and for the same reason: Their revolutions failed spectacularly but they refuse to admit what went wrong.


What is so hard to understand about ULTRA -nationalism...Hitler promoted a German racially homogeneous population : a state having ethnic purity.

Socialism is not liberal. Liberalism means private property rights, laissez faire economic policies,and individual liberty. Milton Friedman described himself as a liberal. William F Buckley did too.
Socialism is about state control over the economy. Socialism is about dictating what individuals can and cannot do. Socialism is all about government control.
By your reasoning Japan is an ultra nationalist society. Hint: It isnt.

You stated as fact that 2 to 3% of the population was gay. You lied, according to your own standards.
