The Watchman On The Wall

The Watchman On The Wall
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Verse 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Saul Alinsky Part 3


Alinsky was an exponent of moral relativism - the moral disease that deeply infects America today. After reading his thoughts on "Organizing People" or the "have nots" I do not believe he believed in God, the U.S. Constitution or the fact that our rights are derived from God and that government cannot take them away.

He is a product of the 1920s and 1930s, an antiquated proponent of communist class warfare. We see his type of agitator in the classic movie "Dr. Zhivago." The agitator who infiltrates and demoralizes the Russian army during World War One. Unfortunately, some of our fellow citizens are falling for his old communist tricks. We used to call them "fellow travelers," Lenin called them "useful idiots."

I find it interesting that he claimed he associated with and was fascinated with Chicago mobsters like Al Capone. The organizing model he advocated resembles that of mobsters.

Also his adherents today have successfully attacked Sarah Palin by using his tactic of ridicule.

Alinsky thoughts were very flawed because like other Utopians such as the French Revolutionists, Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, etc. they are doomed to failure because even if their revolution succeeds it ultimately will fail because the violence of the revolution breeds a backlash because people get tired of endless, senseless violence and repression.

I do not believe Alinsky understood America. There is no other nation on earth that fought a war to free an ethnic group by abolishing slavery. We are part of a small group of nations who welcomed Jews to our country. We have opened our gates and hearts to the down trodden. We are at our core a moral people. Unfortunately people like Alinsky want to destroy what is best about America by creating their utopia. In America one does not have to have a PHD from the University of Chicago to be successful. One can choose any walk of life in America and be successful, Alinsky preached a gospel of doom, gloom and conflict with our fellow citizens.
