Living the Dream

Mike Bradley makes an incisive observation regarding Doug Wilson and his hit and run attacks on Little Geneva and the kinists:

We know what’s driving his crusade against kinism and leading him to come up with these laughable interpretations. He’s between a real rock and a hard place. He dare not concede that kinists are right or that’s probably all she wrote for Wilson Industries.

Spot on, indeed. You see, Wilson is "Living the Dream," which is becoming more of a living nightmare every day. The train is rolling faster and faster down that hill, and there is no way to keep one foot on the platform. You are either on the train, or you have your feet planted on solid ground.

When you cut through all the shouting, there is a simple principle that defines the so-called "Civil Rights" movement. "Regardless of our behavior, you must treat us as equals!" The windy rhetoric aside, this little hole in the levee has led to the nationwide New Orleans unfolding right before our eyes.

The "Dream" is a direct attack on the law, destroying all order and value, in the name of a chimerical "equality" which is nothing less than hell on earth. It is enmity with God.

This is why Wilson and his cronies must juke and jive and prevaricate. One cannot support "The Dream" and the Gospel; no man can serve two masters. The kinists are standing firm, and from this stable platform are putting the flittering flightiness of the Rainbow Reformers in stark contrast.

It is very likely that Doug and company are so deracinated and atomized that they can't see the forest for the trees. Maybe they cannot imagine anything beyond the giant abstraction called "America." Of course, they also know that they can't let anyone get off the merry-go-round, or the fun stops.
