A “news” organization is never more lazy than when it simply republishes a press release without any editing. That appears to be the case with this item:
In “LOVE THY BODY,” best-selling author Nancy R. Pearcey challenges the rise of politically correct social constructs that pose as liberation but are harmful to the human person, while setting us up for control by an all-powerful political state.
“LOVE THY BODY,” published January 2, provides real-world solutions to a dehumanizing hostility to the body that characterizes the secularist approach to abortion, assisted suicide, same-sex “marriage,” transgenderism, and so on.
The following excerpt from “LOVE THY BODY” uncovers the link between the personal and the political—how a secular ideology denies the relevance of biology and thereby alienates us from our bodies and render human beings “easier to manipulate and control.” Human freedom begins at home. Now, more than ever, says Pearcey, love thy body.
The book title in all caps is the giveaway that CNS simply copied-and-pasted a press release — no self-respecting news organization, or at least one with competent copy editors, would let that happen.
The excerpt itself is the usual right-wing complaining about “secular orthodoxies” and the “secular moral revolution.” Message is more important than editorial standards at CNS, apparently.
