The Classic Argument Against Zeal
Symptoms
Ever conversed with a person about something that you are very passionate about? Or what about something that is even a part of your spiritual/religious beliefs?
If you have chutzpah and aren't politically correct, you probably voiced your belief just the way you see it - not beating around the bush at all. Now has this view ever been considered "crazy", "wrong", "evil", or anything of the sort?
Finally, have you been accused of being "angry" because of your passionate views on a very important issue to you?
Diagnosis
If so, you have encountered PCP (Politically Correct Persecution). You will encounter this asinine behavior from individuals who are soaked in the filthy cesspit pool of political correctness.
The Problem
The problem is the people who emulate this behavioral castration.
The people who exhibit this behavior, in their politically correct world of fakeness, are the kind of people who get personally offended at any sign of chutzpah. For instance, if you raise your voice in an argument, they will brand you "angry" or "mad". If you talk loud and you seem annoyed in a conversation or argument - they will be offended by it and start saying you hate them, or are violently angry.
Fortunately, this kind of person is not extremely common in Israel, where you might hear two people yelling at each other, only to see them finish the conversation in friendly embrace.
Unfortunately, it is all too common in America, as well as other western nations.
Why They Act This Way
The reason there are many people who are infected with this virus of political correctness, is because of the idea of "civil" behavior that has gone out of control.
Anything that is not "approved" by the universal standard of morality, the western-culture, "intellectual" standard of what is right and wrong, is immediately branded as usually something along the lines of "hateful" or "extremist".
In this day and age, woe to anyone who is against homosexuality's acceptance in culture. Woe to anyone who doesn't believe everyone should be treated by a standard of "common rights" for every individual.
For everyone who ACTUALLY holds true to the Torah of the God of Israel, this means rejecting this universal so-called righteous standard set up in the minds of Hedonistic people and enforced by everyone infected with the lethal virus.
The Absolute Standard of Morality
The Torah teaches against Hedonism, and it sets clear-cut boundaries and rules on conduct and behavior. Not some airy, unclear "righteousness" that Christianity goes by; no, unlike the undefined standard of righteousness of Christianity which is influenced by and moves with the western, Hellenistic-culture's ever-moving undefined morality - the Torah which was delivered to the people of Israel on Har Sinai in ancient times is different. It is solid, unchanging, and it defines what is sin and what is not; what is right and what is wrong.
Without this solid, original base, a nation, a people, and a religion move into evil, adopted ideas and beliefs that are based on nothing but human nature - the same self-lead humans who made great empires only to be destroyed entirely never to return, like the Egyptian, Babylonian, Greek, and Roman empires. And so too like the modern American and European empires who are making the same fatal mistakes as their predecessors.
The Eternal Existance of Israel
Only one people and their dynasty has survived over the ages, and that is the people of Israel. We have been sought out for extermination by many of the great world empires over the past thousands of years. And although these things were allowed by our God, they were set in place to cause us to return to his only true standard of morality, the Torah, and to return to the Land our God gave us, where we belong.
Once again, after many, many years our nation formed again and we not only survived the onslaughts of several surrounding nations pinned against our infant, out of the ashes of the Holocaust nation - we utterly obliterated them with minimal causalities on our side.
Our Obligations
Now, the Torah, the sole standard of true righteousness, commands us to destroy the enemies who are living within our Land. The politically correct people frown upon this and say no such thing could happen in a "civilized" world. Yet, in its due time, there will be a band of Makabim (Maccabees) who will again rise up and defy the Hellenism that imposes itself upon the nation of Israel just as the old Maccabees defied the Greeks (Hellenists) in that day. They will carry out the righteous orders of the Torah as our God commands us and destroy HaSatan's tool, the Amalekim.
As this seems like "extremist fundamentalism", or "Jewish terrorism" by the western world's standard - it matters not. Kahane was right. Amalek will be destroyed in time - but now is not the time. It will be soon, but not now. Maybe Mashiach has to come, or maybe our people need to come to further repentance and truly submit to the Torah. Whatever the case may be, there will be a time and it is somehwere on the horizon.
