Up until recently the most vulnerable were constantly viewed as the poor, those who were trodden down by the rough economic forces of our rapacious culture.<br />That’s no longer the case.’ From here: https://stephenmcalpine.com/2017/12/07/is-it-really-the-christian-way-yes-actually-it-is/Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06820925595506920754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-948826710613032587.post-38085282273457869162018-05-09T17:26:52.440-07:002018-05-09T17:26:52.440-07:00Thanks, Mudpuddle.

I strongly believe in advocating for equality and for s diverse society. I strongly disagree with what seems to be described here as Post - Truth approachs. We have decided discussed these issues before. I consider myself a traditional liberal who rejects The growing Post - Modernism and illiberalism coming out of the left. In the end, I find that most reasonable people can agree to reject unfairness, sexism, racism without succumbing to irrational and repressive movements that Murray seems to be talking about. Of course I think that I would disagree with Murray on a lot of social issues. <br /><br />I have a feeling that a creature with a beak may be considering himself a bit a a victim:) Brian Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139559400312336791noreply@blogger.com
