Now, a number of liberals can be faulted for being fellow
travellers, and taking unrealistic views of such regimes, and since the Sixties the failure
to take a stand against Left wing oppression became a disgrace, but they did not
directly kill masses of people.........

I agree with that statement and in fact I consider myself a classical liberal (with a good dose of Ayn Rand thrown in there). However somewhere along the way the left got into bed with the Utopia of socialism/communism. This is where I parted with what is refered today today as liberalism. I seek freedom from the rule of the elite and self-determination not enslavement to a higher power whether it be a church or a state

The religious left seems to be mostly Catholics and the liberal Jewish crowd who somehow seem too afraid to let go of religion but who support views that seek to remove religion from existence. I wonder what God would say to a Catholic. Why did you vote for a party that eliminated all discussion of me from school?. In general they seem to like religion as a need of society but not a guiding way of life
