Engel’s Goal For Family & Example of Thinking that made for Engels Success

“Only when we have led every woman from the home into the workplace will complete equality be achieved, by the destruction of the institution of the family, which is the basis of capitalist society.”

Friedrich Engels,

On July 14, 2015, a Christian evangelist was on the phone with Rush Limbaugh. GROAN Alert.

The Evangelist calls to answer a question that Limbaugh asked last week.
Limbaugh’s question was,

Where are all the Christians in resisting the Obergefell decision?
The Evangelists’ bright answer?
“Rush we Christians don’t believe that our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with principalities and power so what we Christians have done is taken up the weapon of silent prayer.”

Limbaugh response?

Why wouldn’t you do something as well as pray?

Evangelist replies,

“Well, Rush, we believe; blessed are those who are persecuted.”

And you wonder why I don’t want to be identified as Christian Clergy.
