So far, so conservative. But then things change. All private citizens and corporations are not only bound by right-protecting negative laws, but they are likewise bound to perform certain good deeds for in behalf of their neighbors, their community, and their nation. Compassionate Conservatism calls this civic duty. Civic Virtue and Christianity look to the Sermon on the Mount, Compassionate Conservatism looks to the Harangues of Karl Marx.
Tolerance is the code word of their faith.
But clearly its definition is not the rational Biblical one which embraces hate the sin but love the sinner, but the fanatical Marxist one which censures those who would dare to call sin, sin. This new brand of tolerance legalizes debauchery in favor of social progress, and demonizes orthodox religion in favor of social solidarity. It becomes, in substance, cruel and despotic. It compliments local government, but labors for the New World Order. It cries for greater accountability, but it outlaws negative campaigning.
