Anti-Godism

There are many, many ways to worship God but only one way to reject Him.  Thus, many different views can share one basic urge: the rejection of God.  This, I think, best accounts for both the divided nature of the conservative movement and the congruence of the far Left.  It helps explain the unlikely uniformity of the anti-God alliance.  Why do gun-control advocates make common cause with militant abortion advocates?  What interests do either of these groups share with the homosexual lobby?  Why can these groups nearly always be found standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the multiculturalism militia and the condom counselors?  Clearly, they must all share a great unifying principle, which, whether intended or not, is anti-Godism.
