Modern US Democrats are so fixated with control they’ve jettisoned religion and rights
Likewise, modern US Democrats are so fixated with control they’ve jettisoned religion and rights, as expressed in the Founder’s Rule of Law, to absolutely control society. Eric Voegelin referred to this as Modernity without Restraint, a lawless expression of Political Religion, which Democrats now mindlessly worship. Liberals knew if God were removed from the minds of men there would be no support if constitutional rights were suddenly set aside.
Now consider how America's loss of faith means we are becoming godless, with 30% of residents now religious unaffiliates. Christian identity has fallen to 63%, down from 75% just 10 years ago. And in 2022, belief in God was at 81%. Yet, from 1944 into the 1960s, 98% of Americans believed in God. Yet, after all the decades of public attacks against the faith, what if God is needed to help form values, convictions and plans for a prosperous and safe society?
But what difference does it make? After all, we’re now famously untethered from belief as we’re repeatedly informed religion causes wars, is a seedbed of ignorance, and unnecessary to understand a universe built on numbers. But is this true? Is the universe really self-generating and self-explained?
Consider that the existence of our Fine-Tuned Universe, aka Goldilocks, which strongly suggests a divine architect involved in its construction. Bearing in mind the number of subatomic particles in the known universe is 1x 10 80 , anything that reaches beyond 1x 10 50 is considered a mathematical absurdity (impossibility). Now, consider the odds of an accidental universe:
Roger Penrose , a British physicist, has calculated that this initial entropy of the universe was fine tuned to an exquisite degree. You can’t even get your mind around this: The calculation he made showed that the initial condition of fine tuning was one part in 10 to the 10th of the 123rd power, or 10 123
Note: “In math, the value 10123 means 1 followed by 123 zeros. (This is, by the way, more than the total number of atoms [1079] believed to exist in the whole universe.) But Penrose’s answer is vastly more than this: It requires 1 followed by 10123 zeros.”
