Think of progressives as a species of religious fundamentalists planning a redemption.

Like fundamentalists they look at the world as fallen – a place corrupted by racism, sexism and class division. But the truly religious understand that we are the source of corruption and that redemption is only possible through the work of a Divinity.
In contrast, progressives see themselves as the redeemers, which is why they are so dangerous. Because they regard those who oppose them as the eternally damned. Progressives are on a mission to create the kingdom of heaven on earth by redistributing income and using the state to enforce politically correct attitudes and practices in everyone’s life. They want to control what you do, and who you are, and even what you eat. For your own good, of course. The Threat We Face | FrontPage Magazine

Leftists do not believe in original sin, though. Where they think the evil came from is not exactly clear, but it has something to do with evil associates and greed.

I finally reduced one to admit that if everyone is basically good then everyone would still be good, for whence did it come? The next day he was back to saying everyone was decent and good and if only we got rid of the bad influences we'd have paradise.
