O'Reilly on secularism

You may have heard about that passenger on a plane who had tuberculosis. Our good pal Bill O'Reilly had some things to say about that:
OK, so Speaker says he wasn't fully aware of his condition. His wife says he thought he was going to die. Add it up.

So what the story comes down to is philosophy of life. Traditional-values people put others on a par with themselves. That's a Judeo-Christian tenet. Love your neighbor as yourself.

Secular progressives put themselves above all others. That philosophy says, "Me first, then I'll worry about you." As a nation, the USA has been successful embracing the traditional point of view. But today, that's being challenged. And this TB case is a great example.

Are Andrew Speaker and his wife bad people? Probably not. Did Speaker put his own welfare above everything and everybody else? You bet he did.

Right. Christian people are never selfish; they would never say -- oh, for example -- that immigrants need to be kept out of America so that white Christian males (like themselves) can remain in power.
