‘Cross lobby’ shows 'progressive' hypocrisy on church-state separation

An occasional recurring theme on “The War on Guns” blog is how the regressive left, as exemplified by groups like “Americans United for the Separation of Church and State,” goes into IRS-siccing hissy fits whenever conservative religious values surface in government affairs. That generally prompts them to point loudly and insistently to the “wall of separation,” cite the First Amendment proscription that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion,” and generally act like they can’t wait to find a hamlet somewhere with a manger scene in a public park at Christmas so they can tear it down and make someone pay for having their atheist sensibilities offended.

Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary observes if you can't de-program cultists, you're just going to have to be prepared to repel them.

Not to elicit controversy, but, I must note that Anglican Gary Hall is the "spiritual leader" at the National Cathedral, which has at least one openly lesbian priest and has hosted gay weddings. The Anglican denomination (Episcopalian) also has an openly gay bishop. Hall does not and never will speak for traditional Christians, especially those of us who recognize his politically correct version of the faith for what it is: apostasy. His position of authority is much more offensive than just hypocrisy.

Judging by the links in this post at WRSA and now DiFi's statement I reckon they aim to co-opt religion now too.

It is a page out of the statists' historical playbook after all.
