The religious left remind me of an old joke

It’s the one about what you get when you cross a Klansman and a Unitarian – someone who will burn a question mark on a Catholic’s lawn.

Similarly, we find much inaccurate bloviation about the role of religion in the schools, public space, anywhere really, except when it comes to faiths that aren’t Christian or has anything to do with Judaism, but never when it comes to Jihad, Hamas, Hizballah, and the like. For example, the invocation of a higher power when lefties are after earthly treasures, such as the ability to bludgeon their opponents without criticism and use civil social institutions for their political objectives without being called hypocrites.

To crib one of their stale habits dating back to 1963, may mother Gaia (the non-denominational and ungendered) smite them on their way to the angry protest-against-some-random-aspect-of-the-society-they-live-in.

In this season of giving I wish them tolerance, diversity, and multi-culturalism.
