To be a Democrat, we have to uphold some ridiculous beliefs. Here are some examples.
- Liberal Democrats follow the SCIENCE. Liberal Democrats believe in scientific TRUTH. Republicans are anti-science.
- Government-run schools teach SCIENCE. Government-run schools are the one best, indispensable, and entirely reliable way to instruct America’s children in absolutely everything they need to know (to be a Liberal Democrat).
- Government-run schools teach that all religious beliefs are equally valid. Government-run schools make this assertion even though the claims of the world’s major religious faiths are in direct contradiction. How do government-run schools reconcile the conflicting claims? With scientific logic. By implication if all religious beliefs are equally valid, then all religious faiths are equally invalid.
- America was founded by Deists who did not take the teachings of the Bible seriously.
- America was founded on the backs of slaves. America’s founders were evil and vile slave owners undeserving of any respect. America’s founders and founding documents should not be taken seriously.
- Science and The Bible are in conflict. The Bible says things that science has proven untrue.
- What the Liberal Democrat news media calls the scientific consensus is the same thing as scientific TRUTH.
- Scientific “experts” always tell the TRUTH.
- Global warming has been scientifically proven. The Theory of Evolution has been scientifically proven. The genetic origin of homosexuality has been scientifically proven.
- Destroying the fossil fuels industry in the United States and buying our fossil fuels from countries run by tyrannical regimes will solve the problem of global warming.
- Pregnant women need to be protected ultrasound machines.
- An unborn human child is not a human being until some convenient time well after birth.
- If we can save just one life, it is worth it.
- If a Democrat says it is for the children, then it is worth it.
Please feel free either to object or to add your own examples in the comments.

Tom,
After reading a Chicago Tribune article and your post this morning, I linked your post to mine titled:
War Propaganda Folly Declared in USA Republic Conundrum?
You are spot on in your use of the word propaganda and we now have generations of youths never taught Civics or Spirituality now grown up who do not understand the USA reasons and differences of a Democracy or Republic, even legislators elected into public office enacting laws that are unconstitutional.
Sad,
If Interested

Regards and goodwill blogging.
How about women can be men and women can be men. Not very scientific!
Great list.
Especially the part where men can get pregnant.
I still have not figured out why the things Liberal Democrats are saying don’t cause people to wonder about their sanity, but there is that guy in the White House instead.
Seems the mass media can tell some people what to believe and that is that.
