Thoughts

Principles we have, and are principles that we should be proud of and assert, and not be quiet about because in a group setting, especially among liberals, are principles that we should declare openly in public regardless of fallout, pushback or harsh putdowns.

To be principled is not bigoted. What is bigotry is the harsh attack on fundamentalist conservatives  of all kinds by secular humanists that do not believe in God, do not believe in sin, and do not stand for anything. Anything goes is their motto. If a Christian or Mavellonialist counter that some things are a go and virtueous an approved of by God, and other behavior are sinful and prohibited, then these amoral or immoral secular humanists condemn conservatives as bigoted, exclusive and exclusionary.

We might be exclusive of sinners, but that is our job, not a popularity contest, declaring anything goes. That does not mean that we do not love, forgive and welcome sinners back into the fold if they reprent their wicked ways. Nor does it mean that we are not sinners and flawed too. None are perfect, and none are without sinning.

The bigots are the sinners and worldly types that attack us as bigots. The Left always uses words like racist, bigot, sexist, homophobe and Islamophobe to shut down debate, to demonize the opposition to intimidate and silence diverse thinkers.

The Left, the secular humanists and the unbelievers are bigoted in excluding and attacking any that do not conform to their sinful group-think. they are the haters. 

Speaking only for myself, as a Mavellonialist, I would assert that if people are sinners and deviant, as long as their sinfulness does not match criminal violation of legal code, then their behavior must not be prevented by the neighbors or State intervention. 

Sinful but non-criminal behavior must be judged and adjudicated by God, not by the district attorney. In that way, I am libertarian. Let people behave as they will, as long as they do not break the law.
