Dan Clements, Your Constitutional Warrior  Friday January 27 2017

There is a political movement that has been around since Woodrow Wilson was president and it called progressivism. Now progressivism sound innocuous, but it is anything but. There is a dark side to it, or should I say that is the only side to it.

Progressivism is based in ethical humanism, which sounds good until you dive deeper into the issue and see what they base their ideas on. In short humanism is based on the evolutionary idea that man is just another animal, and mankind is it’s own highest authority. They believe they can have heaven on earth through the state, and that everyone is equal and all ideas (if they agree with their authoritarian ideas) are of equal value and that there is no good or evil.

This is why most freedom and liberty loving Americans can wrap their minds around ethical humanism, because humanism rejects the notion of individual liberty and freedom!!! The state is the end all be all of ordered society!!!

Daily Bible reading: 1Jn 1:5-10 This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

Hello, my name is Dan Clements, and I host a live show every Friday from 12 noon-1pm ET every week. I also record a daily show that is posted in the afternoon. It's called The Dan Clements Show on YouTube and on my show page. The Dan Clements Show is a Christian/political talk show where we talk about the issues of the day from a Christian point of view. We cover all topics of a political nature, and sometimes some topics that are not. I try to keep the show lite, engaging, and easy to understand. I want people to come away from my show knowing that they have learned something new, or how to look at an issue from a different point of view. So please come and be apart of the conversation. I also upload 1-3 short videos Monday - Thursday, so be on the lookout for those videos as well!!! I'm a veteran of the US Navy and the Army National Guard. I have been married to my wonderful wife Lori for almost 32 years and have 2 children. I love my God and my country and am working hard to teach the truth about both.
