Is the World Being Destroyed by an Alliance Among Secularists, Witches, Satanists, LGBT and Occultists

A Catholic alarmist is running about like Paul Revere claiming our country, make that world, is being destroyed by a new alliance. All those in the title used to be at odds, he says. Now they are joining forces.

The link makes light of this claim of alliances. To the contrary, I think the alliances have always been there. What's different, however, is the sense of unity. All these groups did not have a common enemy in the past. Now they share two enemies, a disliked President and police brutality against black people.

The alarmist is complaining because secularists/atheists have always disavowed any invisible gods or spirits. Now they are doing business with the world of witches and spells. 

This alliance is not unlike an alliance the alarmist himself probably endorsed years ago. This was the teaming up of anti abortion operatives with anti tax/regulation business interests. There common enemy was liberal thinking. While the two groups had virtually nothing in common, they shared an enemy. At this point in time each may be shopping around for some new alliances that would be more helpful to them.

I was on the Board of Directors of Parents and Friends of Gays and Lesbians for several years. There were many meetings in DC. When in DC I attended lots of informal gettogethers where liberal groups of many strips. We would explore their common interests. Gay advocacy groups socialized with ACLU, women's rights, voter turnout groups and a host of others. One can see these alliances in court cases where one group leads and the others sign on as "friends of the court."

One of the oldest political strategies in world politics is to drive splits among political enemies. Tip O'Neills' book, Man of the House, explained how the technique was used locally in Boston. When an opponent looked strong it was smart to find another person in his constituency to run and split the vote.

The worst strategy is to push enemies together in common cause. That is what Trump, evangelicals, anti abortionists and anti gay groups are doing. It is helping our country correct itself.
