Which Cult is Destroying America?

link here to article

I'll bet that you didn't make the right guess. This article is about another cult. It is the cult that reports the news and makes believe that both sides are equally at fault. This cult believes the there is some middle position that must be correct. We have a centrist president, who is conceding on almost every point in the debate with the cult that has taken over the GOP House, and the media are reporting that there must be some place in the middle that is better than the positions held by either side.

We had a name for those who took positions that were obviously wrong. We placed them in the "flat earth society". The assumption, of course, was that it was pointless to listen to them any further. We did not believe that there was some middle ground between a flat earth and a round earth. Today we have 97% of the climate scientists in the world pointing to evidence that supports global warming. Yet many in the media believe that they have to give equal time to the 3% who believe otherwise. There are even some in the media who argue that the 3% are correct and about half of the population believes them instead of the majority of the scientific community. The flat earth society is much larger than I would have imagined.
