Palin Trashes “Church Of Big Government”

Christopher Agee * The Western Center for Journalism

As Christmas approaches, conservative Christians must once again witness an attack on the true meaning of the Holiday as leftists redefine the season in secular terms. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin addressed this trend, along with its underlying causes, during a recent speech at a dinner hosted by the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition.

Citing an ever-present “War on Christmas,” Palin identified the “politically correct police out there” as the group responsible. Though the ongoing fight against the Christian Holiday is an affront to believers across the nation, she cautioned it is merely a “symptom of a bigger issue.”

While it is obvious leftists take issue with faith in God of the Holy Bible, she pointed out the hypocrisy with which they show unwavering faith in the state.

She called out the “scrooges who are too enlightened for religion,” marveling at the fact the same activists show “zealot-like faith in the church of big government.”

Exploring the topic further, Palin explained why putting faith in a frequently fallible federal bureaucracy is detrimental for the future of this nation. Primarily, she explained, the government does not deserve the people’s trust because “it does not have faith in us.”

Furthermore, while its proponents claim the “best and brightest” minds are working in the public sector, Palin pointed out numerous recent examples of spectacular governmental failure or corruption.
