I'm saying the Loony Left are acting in reaction to the loony antics of religious people.
I don't think so. Naw, the Loony Left (the only left) will always be loony. Religious people will go about their business, and the loony Left will keep thinking up ways to better invade the lives of others and make decisions for them.

Classic example here. When I was a kid, the example given in school of totalitarianism and forcing personal values on others was this: Jim, Bill and Bob live on Oak Street. Jim and Bill have traditional color houses. Bob recently painted his house purple. (!!)

Jim and Bill create a bill to limit house colors to traditional colors, the bill passes, and Bob is forced to repaint his house.

This was given as an example off "democracy gone awry". You'll however recognize it as modern day Liberalism, and note that Liberals in thousands of locations across America have had laws passed that not only regulate the color you can paint your house, but also penalize for "unsightly" things, such as having an broken down car on your property.
