    Why Too Much of the Left Hates Natural Law

    Some 'Leftists Hate Natural Law Because It’s The Only True Bulwark Against Tyranny'

    Politico Ditz 'Heidi Przybyla made an unfair attack on people of faith — and also got wrong the entire foundation of our country.'

    Not bright and poorly educated but smug and dripping with condescension.

    'Heidi Przybyla recently appeared on' MSDNC 'to attack an “extremist element” in the Republican Party that she refers to as “Christian nationalism.” As Przybyla explained, “The thing that unites them as Christian nationalists … is that they believe that our rights as Americans, as all human beings, don’t come from any earthly authority. They don’t come from Congress, they don’t come from the Supreme Court. They come from God.”'

    Oh, yes, that's from the foundation thesis statement of the United States, the longest surviving Liberal Democracy on the planet in existence today.

    'Our nation’s founding document, the Declaration of Independence itself, cites “the laws of Nature and of Nature’s God” in its central assertion, which lays the groundwork for our entire experiment in self-government: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”'

    'Our Constitution was written to give a guiding structure to effectuate the principles of the Declaration of Independence and create a government to protect and preserve these God-given rights. That’s why the very first amendment to the Constitution protects the right to the free exercise of religion — because our nation was founded on the idea that our rights come from God. All our subsequent constitutional principles flow from that natural order.'

    'Przybyla flips this concept on its face. If our rights don’t come from God, they must come from the government — and if the government can give us our rights, then the government can just as quickly take those rights away. Przybyla tried to walk back what she said, but her cards were already on the table.'

    So how did Heidi come to obtain this age and position in America as someone who could spout such ignorance, unchallenged from one of major platforms of the Lying Fake News National Propaganda Organ that operates in the service of the Left in America trying to shape, control and direct US mainstream opinion?

    Do the more intelligent members of the Left cringe when they hear such idiocy from a "veteran DC journalist"?

    Please discuss.
