Thoughts...
I'm not sure when I first noted that there was a war on Christianity, but certain observations dating back to the 1960's were beginning to take shape. Throughout the remaining years of that century (70's, 80's, and 90's) I was an avid reader of subject matter which tied politics and religion that were antithetical to one another. If I were to boil it down to one quote that cemented my ideological belief that the war has been raging far longer than I first suspected, it was this:
"Education is thus a most powerful ally of humanism, and every American public school is a school of humanism. What can the theistic Sunday schools, meeting for an hour once a week, teaching only a fraction of the children, do to stem the tide of a five-day program of humanistic teaching?"
That was written in 1933 by one of the co-authors of the book, First Humanist Manifesto, C.F. Potter. One could go back beyond that year and find more evidence, but that quote sunk in with me.
In the following video it becomes clear that the war is more intense, however using the current war between Russia and Ukraine to make the point.
Please, by all means, find the time to listen to this excellent interview hosted by Tucker Carlson. Thanks, Storm'n Norm'n.
