When did Liberalism, and the Godlessness that goes with it, take over the American landscape?

Everywhere you turn traditional Christian values are under attack. Why is it that these values are attacked for not being "tolerant" when, by the very nature of the attack is itself intolerant?
Its a double standard these days. Its like when Darth Vader said "Join us or die".
That seems to be the attitude among liberal theologians, politicans, media spin doctors & talking heads, college professors, the ACLU, race activist, and a host of others!
If you agree with them then youre doing your part as a contributing citizen but if you try to hold yourself to a higher standard that rejects the very sin nature that liberalism promotes then youre just a bigot and a hypocrite. They go STRAIGHT to the name calling the second you disagree. They say they are the ones who are being tolerant when in fact they are the ones being the bigots and hypocrites. Actions speak louder than words dont you think?
OK just to clarify a few things….
First being liberal is not necessarily political.
Second being Christain doesnt mean youre Republican.
Please keep this in mind if you answer.
This is a philosophical idealism question, not a politcal one.
Sorry if its in the wrong category but it kind of fits

Christian values are not under attack. Christian values can be found anywhere in today’s society from tv shows like 7th Heaven to movies like "Bruce Almighty," "The Truman Show," and even "The Matrix" trilogy. There are many religious Liberals, myself included. What I have a problem with is Christian hypocrisy. If you say you’re a Christian, then ACT like one. Actions DO speak louder than words, so don’t just ask yourself "What would Jesus do," DO what Jesus would have DONE!
Liberalism doesn’t promote sin or intolerance, those are just your biased opinions of something which you know very little. If Christians want to be respected, then they need to respect other religions and their followers and the same goes for those other religions. Give respect to receive respect. It’s that simple.

Why do so many peaple like monster hunter freedom so much?

The game just sucks I mean you do the same thing over and over again. example would be a quest says kill x amount of vilosiprey ok so I did that and than another quest says kill more vilosiprey but 10 more than you did last time. The quest are so boring and repetitive there is no story. The landscapes are just so dull and flat and empty I mean all they are are fields with trees and rocks and maybe a little cave or two. I want the quests to give you differt rewards instead of just money like if you compleat this quest you get a sword or armor or what ever. Also I do not like the whole box thing when you get somthing that was a objective to get on the quest you have to go and put it in the box whats with that I think you should be able to take it to the elder yourself instead of puting it in a box or who ever you have to give that certain thing or item to. I Also think that there should be more towns/villages and you have to go exploring to find that town there should be dungions to.

I agree with Kasiban!

Do you try to talk people *out* of your breed?

I spend so much time telling people about the bad points of my breed that sometimes I really have to think about why I love it so much — and why I have so many of them.

I guess for me, there are three reasons I adore my breed:
1. They are beautiful to watch in their element, working as a team in front of a sled.
2. They are primitive: Carved out of their native landscape to assist their people, designed for survival.
3. I worship the archetypal trickster (Loki, Anansi, Raven, Coyote, etc.), and they are trickster figures personified.

I guess my question is, do you find yourself talking more people out of your breed than into it and — if so — what about the breed makes you crazy enough to own it?

Yes, I must reply now after reading PURPLEP’s answer. OY VEY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bear with me, I have a nice large puncture wound on my index finger, typing is just a *tad* difficult. Perfect timing, my wound comes from a ‘nice, playful wolf dog’ who decided to become a bit food-aggressive lastnight.

My scars are my storybook. They are proof that wolf dogs are not what people claim them to be; that is dogs for everyone.

Wolf dogs are NOT a breed. It’s a mix of dog and wolf, that’s it. A BREED has BREED STANDARDS. There are NO breed standards for a wolf dog… why? Cause it’s not a breed. It’s a MUTT.

They are NOT for everyone, in fact, they are hardly for anyone. Most people, and I mean up in the 90th percentile *think* they have a wolf dog, when in fact they have an extremely low, low content one – who makes a great pet. Sure, a low content wolf dog may make a great house-hold companion just as any other dog may.

But sadly, most wolf dog content is WIDELY misrepresented – I firmly believe that PurpleP is a great example. Those that misrepresent their animals, either due to the breeder misinforming them, or the owners lack of knowledge to accurately determine wolf content in their own animal poses a danger to ALL wolf dogs, their owners AND the public. One may think that they had or have a 75% wolf dog an it makes a wonderful pet… when in fact it’s probably 5 generations or more away fromt he wolf making it, virually, a DOG. Next dog this person gets may be truely a 75%, first generation wolf dog and this owner is in for a HUGE surprise!

True wolf dogs are an extremely dangerous mix. Anyone who argues this has not had the opportunity to involve themselves with TRUE, high content wolf dogs. Wolves have an extremly high prey drive. Naturally they will chase, attack and kill prey. Dogs naturally have no fear of people. Wolf and dog mixed = frequent attemps at chasing and attacking children. Wolf dogs have a never-ending desire to scent-mark and to dig. Due to their high intelligence, they are difficult – if not impossible – for most people to contain. They climb, dig, jump and chew through any enclosure if given a chance, and trust me, they succeed. No one, NO ONE, can contain a high content wolf dog behind a 4-6 foot fence w/o a 2 ft over-hang and 3ft of mesh burried underground. These dogs can easily jump 6 ft from a standstill.

My finger is killing me *waaaa* :( and this is taking forever to type, lol!

And why would anyone WANT a wolf dog? There is definitely a status symbol one is trying to achieve, or a desire to be ‘in-touch with a part of nature’, or even to look ‘cool’. No one can giveme a good enough reason to have one. If they do, then they surely do not have a wolf dog.

As for me, the reasons I am crazy enough to be owned by this "breed" is due to people such as PurpleP. I am forced to take them, it’s not a choice that’s been fueled by greed. But it’s a choice that I make to try to better the wrong that ignorant people have done.

I am forever cleaning up people’s mess… and I will continue doing so. Probably until I die.

Must stop typing now :( I have soo much more to say, though.

ADD: Ohhh I looked at the link PurpleP was kind enough to share. No wonder her dog is such a great dog! Because it’s ONLY a dog! Phew!!!! I rest my case :D

Do you feel guilty that someone cleans your house or takes care of your yard? ?

Last year I taught special-ed (emotionally draining at times), took a full load in school, and served as PTA president. I am generally a multi-tasker and can handle my four children (and their activities) and husband as well as my other responsibilities with ease. Well…..it has become increasingly difficult since my husband is now working out of town A LOT! He helped so much with the baby that I was able to do the little things without interruption..like cook, clean, and bathe.
We have discussed (and agreed) to have someone take care of cleaning the house a few times a month as well as hiring someone to tend to our landscaping. HERE’S my dilemma. I resigned from work for the year in order to complete my Master’s….and now I feel guilty at the thought of someone cleaning up after my family and dealing with things that I feel are MY responsibility…especially since I am not working. I have yet to hire anyone…..and my husband will return from out of town this evening and wonder why I have not done so. Am I feeling overly guilty for nothing? Or am I shirking my own responsibilities?
The Fall semester will begin in a week and I am not looking forward to the 24-7 shuffle from the university to the babysitter to school a to school b to school c to karate to football to another football game to a pta meeting to the babysitter to the university to home and so on. Another side note and yes…I realize I am sounding very whiny right now….I am miserable when the house is not clean! It is just about the only thing that can put me in a grouchy mood. So, I guess the question is, have you ever found yourself in a similar situation…and what did you do?

I had someone clean my house every week for about 3 years. Yes, at first I felt guilty, but when I came home from work and found the house clean, I felt such a relief!!! You are allowed to feel guilty, but believe me, after you feel the stress taken off of you, you won’t feel guilty about it for long. You’re a very busy woman, and if you can afford it, have someone clean and do the yardwork! Don’t you think your plate is full enough without having to worry about those jobs? Relax and enjoy it! It won’t last forever.
