The United States is in a free fall. Why? People just aren’t praying
as hard as they used to. This is the message of Fox News mouth piece
Bill O’Reilly. And why not? Stoking fear and superstition makes for good
ratings. But in examining the history of the United States, are we
really that bad off these days?
Recently Bill shamelessly lied about the tragic murder of reporter
Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward by former employee of WDBJ-TV
Vester Lee Flanagan. He exploited this tragedy to feed on the ignorance
and bigotry of the religious right. He put the blame on a so called
decline of spirituality, the rise of those boogeymen evil doers known as
“Secular Progressives.”
But the killer Flanagan was a Jehovah’s Witness.
Religious and non-religious alike have done horrible things in the
history of mankind. Secularism and individual liberties are the best
protection from such violence. No special privileges and no persecution
based on religious beliefs. No dictator allowed, whether religious or
not. No man to be worshiped, whether a king or a cleric. Freedom of
press, freedom of speech, no one is above criticism.
