Ronald Reagan once quipped, “I have wondered at times what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress.”

TITLE NOTE:  Here at The Bottom Line Guy we try to call ‘a spade a spade.’  Instead of adopting the propaganda of those who’s agenda is against most American values and traditions, we will call them what they are and what represent by their actions.   Thus the ‘Antis’ is short for Anti – Americans, which is exactly what liberals and Progressives truly represent.

How Liberalism Violates the Ten Commandments

Posted on May 19,2014 by J. Matt Barber – Still, there is a difference between individual sins and a philosophical worldview that embraces those sins as a matter of course. Modern liberalism – “progressivism,” leftism, secularism, pick your poison – is built upon, by and for sin itself. Liberalism’s entire fabric is constructed by precept planks that are soaked through and stained by man’s arrogant rebellion against our Creator God.
