Zohran Mamdana and the Atheistic Deconstruction of the World
WikiMedia Commons |
As I pondered the recent Democratic primary in which Zohran Mamdani, a Communist, Socialist, Marxist Muslim, I was led to the following passage (and many others) from Vol 1 of "The Works of Thomas Boston." Communism, Socialism and Marxism are, by definition and choice, atheistic philosophies. And atheism is the foundation that makes all these socio-political movements (Communism, Socialism and Marxism) devastating not only to cities and nations, but to the human soul. Without the God of the Bible, there is nothing but destruction and hopelessness. We should not want that for NYC or any other city. We should not want that for the United States, or any other country. We should not want that for our families, or for our own souls. I urge you to read, digest and meditate on the following. I urge you to share this post.
"Atheism is of pernicious consequence both to others and to the atheist himself. To others: for (1.) It would root out the foundation of government, and demolish all order among men. The being of God is the great guard of the world: for it is the sense of a Deity, upon which all civil order in cities and kingdoms is founded. Without this, there is no tie upon the consciences of men to restrain them from the most atrocious impieties and villainies. A city of atheists would be a heap of confusion. There could be no traffic nor commerce, if all the sacred bonds of it in the consciences of men were thus snapped asunder by denying the existence of God. (2.) It is introductive of all evil into the world. If you take away God, you take away conscience, and thereby all rules of good and evil. And how could any laws be made, when the measure and standard of them is removed? for all good laws are founded upon the dictates of conscience and reason, and upon common sentiments in human nature, which spring from a sense of God. So that if the foundation be destroyed, the whole superstructure must needs tumble down. A man might be a thief, a murderer, and an adulterer, and yet in a strict sense not be an offender. The worst of actions could not be evil, if a man were a god to himself. 'Where there is no sense of God, the bars are removed, and the flood gates of all impiety rush in upon mankind. The whole earth would be filled with violence, and all flesh would corrupt their way."—Thomas Boston
