Mark Steyn on the High Priests of Tolerance


The thing I really like about Mark Steyn's writing is that however horrible the news, his clever wording makes me laugh.

Here's Steyn's take on the Komen debacle and other noteworthy matters, namely religious freedom.

In case you don't know, Steyn has felt the wrath of "tolerance." He was tried for intolerance by Canada's Human Rights Tribunals.

The Joy of Bigotry
I loved Steyn's comment: "one-size-fits-all" diversity. It 's similar to what I refer to as the Emperor's Two Decrees:
#1 No one is allowed to question the Emperor's choice of wardrobe
#2 As a matter of principle, everyone else is henceforth required to get butt-naked too.
Wow, this comment on Mark's article grabbed me by the throat:

Mark,

You're right--the culture of death is in fact a religion of its own, with human sacrifices to demons. Of course they will enforce devotion to this idolatry of the self, and of death.

In addition, they seek power and money, because they worship that too.
But there is another powerful motivator that is greater even than these--the violated conscience. As J. Budziszewski pointed out years ago in his seminal essay "The Revenge of Conscience," the violated conscience doesn't go away; it metastasizes into a cancer that turns the person's whole life into a quest to move the world to match its crazy tilt.

Who knew? While trying to find a cure for a stage four physical cancer, the Susan G. Komen foundation was consumed by a stage four moral cancer -- the anger and hatred of mothers who willfully murdered their innocent and defenseless children, and can tolerate no reminders of their awful deed.

God help them!"
