There is no point submitting to God without complete faith in God first and foremost. Submitting to God because of “modern leftism” is a piss poor reason. You submit to God out of love, faith, commitment and only by your own free will.

Besides, whilst not as common, you can most definitely be a modern lefty and religious.

Furthermore, a lot of historical development into “modern leftism” goes much deeper. The Protestant reformation effectively was the first stepping stone towards individuals creating their own separate interpretations of Christianity.
