The Left believes otherwise, convinced everything is political and, therefore, fair game for the coercive imposition of its civil religion.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/urbaneconomynews.com\/?p=1063\">Declassified 2020 Election Docs Provide Key Intel Withheld From \u2018Flawed\u2019 January 2021 IC Assessment<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Left\u2019s civil religion traces its intellectual lineage to the French philosophe Jean-Jacques Rousseau, whose assault on the Enlightenment helped lay the foundations of modern totalitarianism. In a nutshell, Rousseau\u2019s civil religion was a belief system born of the \u201cgeneral will,\u201d as pronounced by the omniscient \u201cLegislator.\u201d It bound a people to the state and demanded universal assent and practice. Those who refused were \u201cforced to be free,\u201d either through exile from society or even execution.<\/p>\n<p>Per Britannica:<\/p>\n<p>A civil profession of faith ought to tolerate all and only those religions that tolerate others, he suggested, at least insofar as the respective religious groups do not uphold beliefs that run contrary to citizens\u2019 duties. More extremely, Rousseau averred that penalties may rightly be applied against those who do not observe the civil religion. Although government cannot obligate a person to believe its dogmas, one who fails to adopt them can rightly be banished from the state on grounds of unsociability. Additionally, a citizen who publicly acknowledges civil dogmas may be punished with death if, subsequently, that citizen behaves as if he does not believe them.<\/p>\n<p>Gee, to my less-than-nuanced ear, this sounds like a coercive, intolerant state demanding absolute adherence to its dogmas\u2014or else. If this sounds familiar, it should. Political correctness and cancel culture are, in fact, milder forms of the same societal coercion, each representing another step toward the imposition of the civil religion. The Left\u2019s logic is simple: dissent divides the masses; therefore, all dissent must be terminated.<\/p>\n<p>Revealed religion is an inevitable target for Rousseau and his leftist acolytes. By perverting the term \u201ctolerance,\u201d the Left projects and accuses traditional religion of being a font of \u201cintolerance\u201d and further deems it to be a rival to the state and its civil religion for the allegiance of its citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, if the revealed religion alters its beliefs to align with the civil religion, thereby ceasing to be a potential threat to the state and its own, purportedly \u201cunifying\u201d civil religion, it may be allowed to exist. If the revealed religion dissents and does not submit to the dictates of the civil religion, the state will use every means at its disposal to compel compliance and total obedience to it.<\/p>\n<p>To wit: the State of New York\u2019s attack on the Dominican Sisters.<\/p>\n<p>As reported by Zeale\u2019s Elise Winland, during this year\u2019s typically contentious New York gubernatorial election, the GOP challenger Bruce Blakeman has accused incumbent Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul, a fellow Catholic, of anti-Catholic bigotry.<\/p>\n<p>The cause?<\/p>\n<p>The Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne, who operate Rosary Hill Home, a 42-bed residential hospice and nursing facility in Hawthorne, New York, that provides free care to poor patients with incurable cancer . . . have received three letters from the New York State Department of Health informing them of their obligation to comply with the law, as Zeale News previously reported. The complaint says violations could expose Rosary Hill Home and its staff to fines, the loss of the facility\u2019s license, and, under some provisions of the state public health law, possible criminal penalties.<\/p>\n<p>The state statute in question is New York\u2019s LGBTQ Long-Term Care Facility Residents\u2019 Bill of Rights. (It was signed into law by Gov. Hochul in November 2023 and took effect in 2024.) \u201cThe law\u00a0requires long-term care facilities to use patients\u2019 preferred pronouns and assign rooms and allow restroom access based on residents\u2019 \u2018gender identities.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yet throughout its long history, Rosary Hill Home has placed male patients together in rooms, placed male and female patients on different floors, and maintained separate-sex restrooms. Thus, knowing that complying with this relatively new law would compel them to  and \u201csacred obligations\u201d to mercifully and dutifully tend the sick and dying, the Dominican Sisters have filed a federal suit seeking an exemption from the law.<\/p>\n<p>One might ask why the State of New York, especially the governor running for reelection, wouldn\u2019t simply avoid this public battle with the Dominican nuns and grant an exemption. Simply put, even if the governor wanted to, she couldn\u2019t. The law allows no exception.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Residents\u2019 Bill of Rights does not allow facility-based exemptions for religious or any other reason[s],\u201d stated New York Assistant Attorney General Julia Busetti in a July 2 U.S. District Court filing cited by Carl Campanile in <em>The New York Post<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Refusing to allow a religious exemption is typical of the Left\u2019s relentless and increasingly aggressive attacks against revealed religion, perversely projecting its own intolerance onto those who dissent from its perpetually evolving and metastasizing civil religion. Though by no means a settled or unifying issue, according to the Democrat governor and the leftist-dominated legislature, their radical agenda is apparently now beyond questioning by any New York citizen, association, or religious order.<\/p>\n<p>As the GOP gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman told the <em>Post<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p>What Kathy Hochul is doing to the Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne is an absolute disgrace. For over 120 years, these incredible women have done God\u2019s work, providing unconditional love, comfort, and dignity to people in their final days.<\/p>\n<p>They are saints walking among us, and they represent the absolute best of New York. Yet, Kathy Hochul is actually willing to shut them down, strip away their license, and throw terminal cancer patients out on the street\u2014all to enforce her woke garbage.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/urbaneconomynews.com\/?p=1061\">Federal \u2018Strike Team\u2019 Sent to Investigate Fraudulent New York Unemployment Payments<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[Gov. Hochul] would rather leave dying people without care than allow Catholic nuns to practice their faith.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, the governor\u2019s surrogates responded with their own ad hominem attacks and offered some familiar examples of hypocritical projection:<\/p>\n<p>Bruce Blakeman wants to follow Trump\u2019s lead to deny elderly LGBTQ+ New Yorkers the care they need when at their most vulnerable,\u201d said Manhattan Assemblyman Tony Simone. \u201cWeaponizing seniors\u2019 health to score political points is gross, and joining with homophobes who want to eliminate same-sex marriage in America is despicable. New Yorkers want leaders who unite us, not the extremism of Blakeman.<\/p>\n<p>The former state senator who sponsored the transgender law in question and\u00a0Manhattan Borough President Brad Hoylman-Sigal also entered the political scrum:<\/p>\n<p>Bruce Blakeman and the homophobes he campaigns with are opposed to marriage equality and even flying Pride flags. Now, they want to play politics with the lives of older LGBTQ New Yorkers. It won\u2019t fly in New York.<\/p>\n<p>New Yorkers can see through Blakeman\u2019s blatant and cynical attempt to demonize LGBTQ New Yorkers for short term political gain. Our LGBTQ community refuses to be used as pawns in Bruce Blakeman\u2019s latest culture war.<\/p>\n<p>Here we see Herbert Marcuse\u2019s repressive \u201cliberating tolerance\u201d in practice: the Left determines what is \u201cunifying\u201d and \u201ctolerant\u201d\u2014namely, whatever it believes, however risible or radical. Those who dissent are silenced and punished.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of the Left is to raze traditional society and radically transform it. Its steadily encroaching civil religion is both a feature of its strategy and an end unto itself. In seeking to raze America\u2019s traditional culture and Western civilization more broadly, the Left necessarily commenced the culture war. To cover its tracks, it projects blame for that cultural warfare onto those compelled to defend themselves against its inane and insane attacks.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the governor\u2019s surrogates claim that the nuns will be denying care, when in reality it was the Left that passed the law preventing them from providing treatment unless they forsook their faith.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the governor\u2019s surrogates claim that the GOP candidate and his supporters are igniting a culture war, when in reality it was the Left that passed the law that started it.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the governor\u2019s surrogates claim that the nuns and the GOP have \u201cweaponized\u201d senior citizens\u2019 health care for partisan gain, when in reality the Left passed the law precisely to create this conflict.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the governor\u2019s surrogates claim that their view\u2014that men can become women and women can become men\u2014is \u201cunifying\u201d and must be believed by everyone, when in reality a minority view is being coercively imposed upon the majority by a Left-dominated state.<\/p>\n<p>And this is why Gov. Hochul can claim, with a straight face, that \u201chate will never have a place in New York,\u201d when, in reality, that promise or claim applies only to those who toe the line of the Left\u2019s civil religion.<\/p>\n<p>Just ask the Dominican Sisters.<\/p>\n<p>* * *<\/p>\n<p><em>An American Greatness contributor, the Hon.
