Global Warming: The Lords Domain, Not Man’s!


Global warming guru admits he was wrong about climate change. The end of an era.

The global warming scam has been over for a long time, but there are still die-hard fanatics out there. Climate scientist James Lovelock is about to break the clue bat over their heads.Lovelock is a legendary guru of the global warming movement, and the author of books entitled The Revenge of Gaia: Why the Earth Is Fighting Back – and How We Can Still Save Humanity and The Vanishing Face of Gaia: A Final Warning: Enjoy It While You Can. It turns out you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy it, because Lovelock, at age 92, is writing a new book in which he admits he was an “alarmist” and all of his earlier predictions were totally wrong.

No, really. Here’s what he says, as reported by MSNBC: “The problem is we don’t know what the climate is doing. We thought we knew 20 years ago. That led to some alarmist books – mine included – because it looked clear-cut, but it hasn’t happened,” Lovelock said. “The climate is doing its usual tricks. There’s nothing much really happening yet. We were supposed to be halfway toward a frying world now,” he said.“The world has not warmed up very much since the millennium. Twelve years is a reasonable time… it the temperature has stayed almost constant, whereas it should have been rising — carbon dioxide is rising, no question about that,” he added. He pointed to Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” and Tim Flannery’s “The Weather Makers” as other examples of “alarmist” forecasts of the future. This is exactly the kind of stuff that gets reasonable people denounced as the equivalent of “Holocaust deniers” by the enraged primitives of the global-warming cult. Later in the MSNBC interview, Lovelock says “I’m not a denier,” even though he did, in fact, just deny the whole rotten anthropogenic global warming con job.

The Desensitizing, Dehumanizing Effect of Evolution & Eugenics/Genetics on the Human Mind and Heart (the Cognitive and Affective Domains)!

I happened across one of the pop “science” channels and there sat this evolutionary psychologist proclaiming, in an obnoxiously atheistic and authoritative tone, that “the human animal” was never intended to be monogamous. According to this Darwinian “intellect”, an “evolving human animal seeks to be joined” (to mate) and yet the “human animal” is “an adulterer at heart”. Why are human beings “adulterers at heart”? According to this over-educated purveyor of postmodern (unsubstantiated) propaganda, human beings are nothing more than advanced primates who have little or no control of themselves or their actions. Human beings (“the human animal”), according to this Spiritually dead hack and quack, have no basis for civilized behavior, beyond, of course, that which “natural-selection” has, through mutation and chance (evolution), alloted them.

{In a little over one hundred and fifty years, these Darwinian lab-coated and pocket-protecting atheists have taken the sanctity and beauty of human life, a life created by God, and transformed it into a seething cesspool existence (“Darwin’s primordial soup”) where everything is “relative” and there is no absolute truth.}

This kind of atheistic/”scientific” propaganda has a desensitizing effect: if totally held as a belief, this “theory” will dehumanize other human beings in the minds and hearts of those believing the lie. When a person with no real substantiated evidence becomes convinced that he or she is little more than a mutated-by-chance chimpanzee, then along with their own life other people’s lives become devalued in their hearts and minds. This devaluing of human life, then, can open the door to all kinds of evil in the name of “science” and “humanity”: a “science” under the guise of “progress” (myths) that in the end harms more than benefits humanity.

Introduction

Voices haunt the pages of every book. This particular book, however, speaks for the never-born, for those whose questions have never been heard for those who never existed.

Throughout the first six decades of the twentieth century, hundreds of thousands of Americans and untold numbers of others were not permitted to continue their families by reproducing. Selected because of their ancestry, national origin, race or religion, they were forcibly sterilized, wrongly committed to mental institutions where they died in great numbers, prohibited from marrying, and sometimes even unmarried by state bureaucrats. In America, this battle to wipe out whole ethnic groups was fought not by armies with guns nor by hate sects at the margins. Rather, this pernicious white-gloved war was prosecuted by esteemed professors, elite universities, wealthy industrialists and government officials colluding in a racist, pseudoscientific movement called EUGENICS. The purpose: create a superior Nordic race.

To perpetuate the campaign, widespread academic fraud combined with almost unlimited corporate philanthropy to establish the biological rationales for persecution. Employing a hazy amalgam of guesswork, gossip, falsified information and polysyllabic academic arrogance, the eugenics movement slowly constructed a national bureaucratic and juridical infrastructure to cleanse America of its unfit. Specious intelligence tests, colloquially known as IQ tests, were invented to justify incarceration of a group labeled feebleminded. Often the so-called feebleminded were just shy, too good-natured to be taken seriously, or simply spoke the wrong language or were the wrong color. Mandatory sterilization laws were enacted in some twenty-seven states to prevent targeted individuals from reproducing more of their kind. Marriage prohibition laws proliferated throughout the country to stop race mixing. Collusive litigation was taken to the U.S. Supreme Court, which sanctified eugenics and its tactics.

The goal was to immediately sterilize fourteen million people in the United States and millions more worldwide the lower tenth and then continuously eradicate the remaining lowest tenth until only a pure Nordic super race remained. Ultimately, some 60,000 Americans were coercively sterilized and the total is probably much higher. No one knows how many marriages were thwarted by state felony statutes. Although much of the persecution was simply racism, ethnic hatred and academic elitism, EUGENICS wore the mantle of respectable science to mask its true character. (emphasis added)

via War Against the Weak – Introduction.

Eugenics, a pseudo-scientific/ideological aberration of Darwin’s half-cousin, Francis Galton, was the bastard child of Darwin’s racist tendencies and unsubstantiated hypothesis (“natural selection”). Eugenics is the “common ancestor”, the “founding father”, of today’s modern genetics (stem cell “research”, and a popular form of “selective breeding”, “designer babies”): a morally questionable at best “science” that thrives in this hedonistic country, as well as the rest of the world. Through this manipulative renaming, eugenics has merely been dressed up in a more “politically-correct”, “tolerant” and less objectionable garb (genetics); a garb that seeks to cover up the ungodly elitist hatred and bigotry, the dirty underwear, that is at the heart and soul of eugenics.

One can sprinkle flowers and perfume on cow manure in order to make it look and smell better, but if he or she gets real close and digs real deep he or she will find that it still looks and smells like bovine excrement. In the same sense, a pile of unsubstantiated hypothetical excrement by any other name still smells like “bad science”!

This kind of desensitizing and life-devaluing propaganda (evolution/eugenics/genetics) has been perpetrated on every child attending American public schools for the last three-quarters of a century or more. Is it any wonder, with this in mind then, that American public school students, over the past twenty years, have made the evening news for mass murdering felllow students and teachers in their high schools. Is it any wonder, then, that prior to the nineteenth century (before Darwin) there were no records of “serial killers” to be found anywhere in the world? Is it any wonder, then, that in America alone Darwinian-indoctrinated doctors, over the past thirty-plus-years, have “legally” (Roe v. Wade) murdered hundreds of millions of unborn babies (“abortion”)?

{Unborn children, alive in their mother’s wombs, torn apart by chemicals and surgical instruments (“aborted”), and for the sole purpose of granting an immature and promiscuous woman’s “right of choice”. A “woman’s right of choice” to escape the ultimate penalty for responding to her sexual desire like a female animal “in heat”: an “unwanted pregnancy”, a truly inconvenient truth. Why wouldn’t a “liberated” woman respond this way? After all, the feminist/lesbian/atheists, like the psychologist above, have pounded into women’s minds, during the last forty-plus years, that their bodies belong to them, and therefore, they have the “right” to do with them as they see fit, no matter how heinous the outcome. “Liberated” women have become desensitized and dehumanized to the point that their unborn children have become nothing more to them than unwanted inanimate objects: unwanted inanimate objects euphemistically referred to as “embryos” and “fetuses”. The maternal qualities that God built into women are all but gone now, and like men, women, today, are truly less than the human beings their Creator created them to be.}

Is it any wonder, then, that Hitler, seven decades ago, was able to find a “scientific rationalization” through evolution and eugenics for the mass murder of millions of people (literally) branded as “inferior races”? Is it any wonder, then, that other nations in Europe since Hitler have followed his example by seeking to “ethnically cleanse”, through mass murder, their countries of the inconvenience of “the unfit for life”?

…one of Hitler’s favorite sayings was, “POLITICS IS APPLIED BIOLOGY“. Hitler’s ideas of racial purity led to unprecedented atrocities in Europe. Since then, ethnic cleansing has occurred in Cambodia, the Balkans, Sudan, and Rwanda. In one sense, ethnic cleansing is another name for the tribal warfare and mass murder that has afflicted human society for ages, but these crimes seem to gain intensity when believed to be SCIENTIFICALLY SANCTIONED. (emphasis added)

via Social interpretations of race – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

“POLITICS IS APPLIED BIOLOGY.” In other words, since the “human animal” has evolved and is, therefore, nothing more than a mutated-by-chance ancestor of a chimp, then it is, in a political sense, expendable: “Since there is no sacredness or eternal value to life, the disposal of certain breeds of ‘the human animal’ (ethnicities, races) can be politically and socially expedient!” Note also that, according to this author, these kinds of “crimes intensify when believed to be SCIENTIFICALLY SANCTIONED”. Has there ever been a more SCIENTIFICALLY SANCTIONED (and unsubstantiated) hypothesis as “natural selection”?

When we become desensitized to the sanctity of life, then we open the door for the devaluing of our own lives and those around us; we begin the long disastrous journey toward the dehumanization of ourselves and everyone else. This perverse kind of postmodern/atheistic coercion can be rather subtle at first: the introduction of “scientific” theories, as unsubstantiated as they may be, and the use of terms and phrases (euphemisms) such as “common ancestor,” “natural selection,” “survival of the fittest,” “the human animal,” “embryos,” “zygotes,” “fetuses,” the “feeble-minded,” and the “UNFIT FOR LIFE,” can lull us into a Godless stupor where life of any kind is no longer reverenced.

Bald-faced liars didn’t start out that way: they started out with little fibs that got more and more involved, which then lead to more elaborate lies until one day they couldn’t tell the difference between the lies and reality. The loss of integrity can happen in much the same manner: a person starts with one little lie to the boss, or the pilfering of money from the safe, but after a while the lies become bolder and the theft increases until that initial small crack in integrity has turned into a Grand Canyon of lies and thievery. A “scientific theory” can begin with a flawed hypothesis and, unless corrected or thrown out, can then grow into a bald-faced lie put forth as truth; and in the end, this unsubstantiated “theory” (bald-faced lie) can end up doing more harm than it ever did good; such is the case with evolution and eugenics/genetics, whether we are willing to face the facts or not!

If we’re not careful, then, we can become like frogs in a frying pan: a frog placed in a frying pan filled with water and set at a low temperature, which is then slowly increased, will sit there totally unaware and seemingly unaffected until he is completely cooked through. In a similar manner, most people will sit quietly by while listening to and believing every unsubstantiated “scientific theory” put forth by lab-coated “geniuses” until these so-called “theories” have totally obliterated their ability to reason.

Hitler didn’t start out in the early 1930′s by suggesting the mass-murder of millions of Jews, gypsies and homosexuals. No, he started out with subtle and subliminal language (“theories” and ideologies) that would slowly but surely indoctrinate and blind the German people to the truth of what he was about to do.

In conclusion, do we really know and understand what lies at the heart and agenda of eugenics/genetic research today? Do we really know and understand why an unsubstantiated hypothesis (“natural selection”), by an emotionally and religiously confused man (Darwin), is being thrust on our children: in the public schools, by the government, and on every television channel and news program? If the “theory of evolution” is as airtight as the Darwinian lab-coats claim, then why are they so fearful of an alternative to their religious dogma: why are they so against the teaching of “intelligent design” and creationism in the public schools? Why do these Darwinian lab-coats fight so vehemently against a simple parenthetical clause in science textbooks that states, “Evolution is merely a hypothesis that many scientists disagree with.” If they’re so sure of themselves and what they believe to be true, then why are they so afraid?

{A liar doesn’t want others delving deep into his lies, nor does he want the truth exposing his lies!}

Are these politically powerful, Darwinian lab-coats so afraid of their weak hypothesis that they don’t want it scrutinized in any way? I thought good scientific practice amounted to treating any hypothesis as being false until all information contained in the hypothesis could be thoroughly substantiated through scientific scrutiny? I guess this kind of science (science seeking the truth) has either become rare or non-existent in the world today?

Those of us with children, who also have faith in the Lord, should keep them from being indoctrinated in this bald-faced and bad-science fabrication: science and knowledge are not evil, but educational indoctrination and bad science are! From the beginning of life, the education of children is not the responsibility of the ungodly state, it’s the responsibility of the parents! Education is a responsibility that, since the inception of public education, has been shirked by almost all parents, except, of course, those who have chosen to embrace their parental responsibilities by homeschooling their children.

Do we want our children to grow up believing that their ancestors were puke-eating chimpanzees? Do we want our children to value the sanctity and preciousness of created life, whether it be a kitten, robin or another child? Then we best be speaking to our children, while we still have the authority and opportunity, about the lies being perpetrated by the atheistic powers that rule this world system!

From a Lie to the Truth! (Follow-up)

Ever notice how Darwinian/naturalist-atheists claim there is no “scientific proof” for the existence of an intelligent designer (God)? And yet, when blatantly shown there is no substantiated “scientific proof” for the existence of (macro) evolution either, they simply make up fairy tale scenarios with multi-syllabic terms to convince (proselytize) the great multitude of doubters (78% of Americans, according to a recent MSNBC poll) that their god (“natural selection”) does truly exist. There seems to be a bit of inconsistency on the part of Darwinian/naturalist-atheists, but, then again, why would we expect anything different from a group of people who deny the very real Spiritual universe that surrounds them?

Here, then, are two more articles that speak of the deluded state of Darwinian/naturalist-atheists (materialists).

When Nothing Created Everything

JOE CARTER

I’ve decided to take the elements of materialism and shape them into a purportedly accurate, though mythic, narrative. This is what our culture has been missing for far too long – a creation story for young atheistic materialists.

Throughout history people have been awed and thrilled by retellings of their culture’s creation story.

Aztecs would tell of the Lady of the Skirt of Snakes, Phoenicians about the Zophashamin, and Jews and Christians about the one true God – Jehovah. But there is one unfortunate group – the children of atheistic materialists – that has no creation myth to call its own. When an inquisitive tyke asks who created the sun, the animals, and mankind, their materialist parents can only tell them to read a book by Carl Sagan or Richard Dawkins.

But what sort of story are they likely to find? Should they be told, as famed astrophysicist Stephen Hawking claims in his recent book The Grand Design that “the universe… create[d] itself from nothing”?

Since Hawking’s explanation is a bit too drab and nospecific for bedtime reading I’ve decided to take the elements of materialism and shape them into a purportedly accurate, though mythic, narrative. This is what our culture has been missing for far too long – a creation story for young atheistic materialists.

In the beginning was Nothing, and Nothing created Everything. When Nothing decided to create Everything, she filled a tiny dot with Time, Chance, and Everything and had it expand. The expansion spread Everything into Everywhere carrying Time and Chance with it to keep it company. The three stretched out together leaving bits of themselves wherever they went. One of those places was the planet Earth…

And that is why, children, when Man loses his Life he goes from being a Something created by Time and Chance into becoming like his creator – Nothing.

Unreasonable Doubt

The reasons for unbelief are more complex than many atheists let on.

Have A New Kid By Friday

The recent publication of Stephen Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow’s The Grand Design has reignited debate over God’s existence. The ironically titled book proposes that the cosmos was spontaneously generated “from nothing,” with no God (or gods) required to make sense of existence. Never mind the question-begging: How can nothing produce something, let alone hundreds of billions of galaxies? Many atheists celebrate this bestseller as further grounds for dismissing religious belief.

Most atheists would have us think they arrived at their view through cool, rational inquiry. But are other factors involved? Consider the candid remarks of contemporary philosopher Thomas Nagel: “I want atheism to be true …. It isn’t just that I don’t believe in God, and, naturally, hope that I’m right about my belief. It’s that I hope there is no God! I don’t want there to be a God; I don’t want the universe to be like that.” Could Nagel’s attitude—albeit in a more subtle form—actually be common among atheists?

From a Lie to the Truth!

Below is a post from the site Uncommon Descent. I found this post interesting, so I thought I would share it with all of you.

The top three books that helped change me from a mindless, irrational Darwinist into an ID proponent

#1 Evolution, A Theory in Crisis

I was arguing with a (yes, Christian) friend named Dave, about “evolution,” and told him that science had proven that in the primordial seas, once upon a time, a self-replicating molecule came about, and then random changes filtered through natural selection eventually produced all of life. This is what I was taught all my life, having grown up in an academic community infested with “scientists” who told me that any other interpretation of origins was evidence of mindless religious fanaticism.

Dave said, “Don’t trust me, read Michael Denton’s book.” I read it in two days, and exclaimed to myself: “Unholy Crap, I’ve been conned!” (By the way, as best I can figure, Denton is an atheist or at least an agnostic, and has no theological axe to grind.) Interestingly enough, it was this book that first inspired Michael Behe to have doubts about Darwinian orthodoxy.

#2 Darwin On Trial

In this work, Phillip Johnson, an attorney with an extraordinarily sharp mind, elucidates the deceptive and manipulative techniques employed by Darwinists to obfuscate, distort, and use selective evidence to defend the indefensible.

#3 Darwin’s Black Box

In this book Michael Behe lays the foundation for the discovery (which should have been evident all along, ever since the realization that the DNA molecule is an information-encoding system) that life at the most fundamental level is the product of engineered technology. I’ve read the rebuttals to Behe by the most prominent Darwinists, and they are universally desperate attempts that don’t even address his challenges, but change the subject to protein-sequence similarities and other irrelevancies.

“We Understand Nothing”

Crying Wolf, Once Again!

The above image shows two different Time Magazine covers: one from the ’70s (on the left), when so-called “scientists” were claiming a “man-made ice age” was imminent, and the other from a current issue warning of the “impending doom” that will supposedly be caused by a “man-made global warming”, or “global climate change” (take your pick). Both of these magazine covers, in my estimation, only serve to reveal the extreme exaggerations, or bald-faced lies, of the “scientific” materialists: exaggerations and bald-faced lies that have much more to do with manipulative corporate greed, and postmodern religious-dogma, than “saving the planet”.

Below is a quote from an article a close friend sent me. The author of this article (Fred Reed) definitely knows how to cut to the chase and not pull punches:

“The immense beingness of a dark forest, the tens of millions of things—winged things, crawling things, hunting things, plants and moss and mold, soft hungry things in decomposing logs, ants, moths with huge spectral eyes, all in the intricate endless dance of life—these we do not know; we say chitinous exoskeleton and Gibb’s free energy and adenosine triphosphate and Darwin, AND BELIEVE WE UNDERSTAND WHEN WE UNDERSTAND NOTHING, NOT WHENCE NOR WHITHER NOR WHY NOR HOW

There are scholars who believe, much to the chagrin of today’s Darwinian/atheistic anthropologists, that the earliest peoples on earth (antediluvians) were far superior to modern man: physically, intellectually and technologically (see Earth’s Earliest Ages: G.H. Pember). But these advanced human beings (not the materialists’ little green Martians) were never so arrogant as to believe they had all the answers to life.

But, as this author hints, people, today, are so in love with themselves, so full of “self-esteem”, so “self-actualized”, that they, in their adolescent-egocentric and hedonistic stupor, claim to know and understand almost everything; when, in reality, they know and “understand nothing”.

Here is how Solomon described mans’ arrogant pursuit of knowledge and wisdom:

2 “Vanity of vanities,” says the Preacher,
“Vanity of vanities! All is vanity.”

3 What advantage does man have in all his work
Which he does under the sun
?

12 I, the Preacher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13 And I set my mind to seek and explore by wisdom concerning all that has been done under heaven. It is a grievous task which God has given to the sons of men to be afflicted with. 14 I have seen all the works which have been done under the sun, and behold, ALL IS VANITY AND STRIVING AFTER THE WIND. 15 What is crooked cannot be straightened and what is lacking cannot be counted.

16 I said to myself, “Behold, I have magnified and increased wisdom more than all who were over Jerusalem before me; and my mind has observed a wealth of wisdom and knowledge.” 17 And I set my mind to know wisdom and to know madness and folly; I realized that this also is striving after wind. 18 Because in much wisdom there is much grief, and increasing knowledge results in increasing pain. (Ecclesiastes 1)

Solomon, in the wisdom the Lord had granted him, understood that man can only attain to so much temporal (earthly) knowledge and wisdom, and, after that point, man’s endeavors to understand himself and his surroundings become nothing more than a vain pursuit, a chasing after the wind.

This chasing after the wind is the very picture of the postmodern/Darwinian/atheist (postmodern religionists). These postmodern religionists have a minuscule – at best – knowledge of the earth, solar system and universe, and they run with this infinitesimal bit of knowledge as if they were gods who know everything. Like an overconfident child, these “enlightened” megalomaniacs make extravagant claims about things they can’t even begin to comprehend. For instance, they claim that the universe came into existence by means of a “Big Bang”, but, when confronted with the question, “Where did the material come from for this so-called ‘Big Bang’”, they simply come up with multi-syllabic “scientific” jargon, and not-so-imaginative “multi-verse” fairy-tales, to avoid admitting that there is a God Who created them: in psychological terms, this is referred to as “intellectualizing” and “denial”. These impotent gods are so wrapped-up in their atheistic (“self-actualized”) arrogance, and “scientific” mumbo-jumbo, that they truly believe they have become omniscient (“all knowing”):

A hazard of being the most intelligent creature in the neighborhood is that IT FOSTERS AN ILLUSION OF OMNISCIENCE. Today we prostrate ourselves before the sciences, which tell us tales of origin and destiny, about which THEY KNOW NOTHING AND CAN GUESS LESS THAN THE MOST MINOR OF POETS. But we have no poets, and so accept the SOLEMN NARROW TWADDLE of the laboratories. Oh well. Perhaps the best that can be said of scientists is that the brightest of a large number of hamsters IS STILL A HAMSTER.” (emphasis added)

via Fred On Everything.

“Oh well. Perhaps the best that can be said of scientists is that THE BRIGHTEST OF A LARGE NUMBER OF HAMSTERS IS STILL A HAMSTER.” Humans look pretty intelligent, when compared with hamsters! So what! Perhaps these Darwin-worshipers should, as returning Roman conquerors, have slaves, following right behind them, day-in and day-out, who continually whisper in their ears, “All glory is fleeting! You are still mortal!”

For all out there who would deny the Creator and brag about man’s knowledge and technological advances, I would ask this: Where are your “scientific” gods now, Mr. and Ms. Postmodern/Atheist (so cool, so brilliant), when the entire Gulf of Mexico is being destroyed by the very oil that your own personal (materialistic) “scientific” gods, through their “advanced technology”, brought to the surface? So why, now, when they are needed so desperately, can’t your Darwinian heroes (materialistic, “scientific” gods) figure out how to put an end to this catastrophe and save the Gulf? What’s the matter, guys, is your love of Darwin and humanity (your perverse love of self), and denial of God, failing you at the moment? Come on, you “enlightened” supermen and superwomen, suck-up that oil, seal that leak, restore the vitality of the Gulf, heal those suffering animals and fishes, and restore the livelihoods of millions of people along the Gulf coast and beyond. You believe you’re omniscient, so put your money where your “politically-correct”, “tolerant” and God-hating mouths are, and rescue all of us from this out-of-control disaster!

What’s this I hear? Oh yes, I recognize this! It’s silence!

Goodbye, Gulf of Mexico! Goodbye, dolphins, fishes, crabs, shrimp, oysters, pelicans, marshes and estuaries! Goodbye, fishing industry and tourist trade! Goodbye, income of millions of working people along the coast and beyond! Hello, postmodern world of materialistic, Godless and worthless “science”! Welcome to what’s left of the world that, in their earth-bound, Spiritual ignorance, and obnoxious arrogance, the postmodern/atheists continue to destroy!

P.S.

Robert Jastrow (b. 1925 d. 2008) PhD Theoretical Physics recipient of NASA Medal for Exceptional Scientific Achievement

At present, SCIENCE HAS NO SATISFACTORY ANSWER to the question of the origin of life on the earth. Perhaps the appearance of life on the earth is a miracle. Scientists are reluctant to accept that view, but THEIR CHOICES ARE LIMITED; either life was created on the earth by the will of a being outside the grasp of scientific understanding, or it evolved on our planet spontaneously, through chemical reactions occurring in nonliving matter lying on the surface of the planet. The first theory places the question of the origin of life beyond the reach of scientific inquiry. It is a statement of faith in the power of a Supreme Being not subject to the laws of science. THE SECOND THEORY IS ALSO AN ACT OF FAITH. The act of faith consists in assuming that the scientific view of the origin of life is correct, WITHOUT HAVING CONCRETE EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT THAT BELIEF. Until the Sun Dies (1977) pp. 62-63

The details differ, but the essential elements in the astronomical and biblical accounts of Genesis are the same: the chain of events leading to man commenced suddenly and sharply at a definite moment in time, in a flash of light and energy … For the scientist WHO HAS LIVED BY HIS FAITH IN THE POWER OF REASON, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountain of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries. God and the Astronomers (1992) pp.106-107 (emphasis added)

Note: Robert Jastrow was a true man of science (a rarity in this day and age), and not some narcissistic and materialistic PhD who simply feels free to make-it-up as he (or she) goes.

A New-Atheist Teaching in a Catholic School: For What Purpose?


This despicable poster, which so wrongly, and disgustingly, portrays our Lord and His sacrifice, sums up the arrogant, perverse nature and outrageous ignorance of the unregenerate mind (the “new”-atheist’s mind). Because of their total inability to sense the Spiritual realm that surrounds and confounds them, new-atheists are condemned to be the slaves of their own five senses and basic instincts: they are, in reality, little more than the animals they profess (without substantial evidence) to be their distant ancestors. This, perhaps, explains why new-atheists are such a tiny minority: 2.5% worldwide and 3-9% in the USA.

As anyone who reads this blog should know by now, I am not a fan of the Catholic church or its school system. But the following Pew Forum article forces me to side with the Catholics this time.

Iowa Catholic school fires teacher after Facebook survey indicates she doesn’t believe in God

by Clark Kauffman

The Des Moines Register

A Catholic teacher from Fort Dodge has been fired because of a Facebook survey in which she said she did not believe in God.

Abby Nurre, 27, was hired last summer as an eighth- grade math teacher at St. Edmond Catholic School. In August, she responded to a Facebook members’ poll in which she was asked whether she believed in God, miracles or heaven.

In response, Nurre answered, “No.” Her answers then became part of her Facebook autobiography page, which was accessible only to her designated “friends.”

In November, Nurre posted a comment to an online discussion forum, Atheist Nexus. In her post, she provided a link to a New York Times article that, as she described it, indicated the government had spent $2.3 million on prayer research in the past 10 years.

Five weeks later, she was called to the office of Monsignor Kevin McCoy and handed a letter informing her that she was suspended for making “atheist statements in a public forum.”

McCoy barred Nurre from school grounds. A few days later, without discussing the matter with Nurre, the school’s board of directors fired her for violating a policy that prohibits employees from advocating “principles contrary to the dogmatic and moral teaching of the church.” (emphasis added)

via Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life.

In my opinion, this woman is merely attempting to create a story-line in which she ultimately becomes the “innocent victim of religious injustice”.

Why would any person, openly denying the existence of God, want to teach in a Catholic school system, where a religion about God is at the heart of the entire curriculum? Why wouldn’t a new-atheist, instead, want to teach in the public schools, where they already rule the entire system and more positions are available?

I can venture a pretty good guess, perhaps this woman wanted to teach at a religious school solely for political purposes: to indoctrinate her students in new-atheism and/or get fired for her ungodly beliefs and make a political stink? I believe it was for the latter reason that this new-atheist sought a teaching position in a religious school. In my estimation, and I could be wrong, this woman has simply gotten what she wanted: a chance to bring new-atheism to the forefront, and to show how she and her brothers and sisters are (in her opinion) being “discriminated against” in this society. This woman is most likely nothing more than a new-atheist “undercover-operative” seeking to stir up another “separation of church and state”/anti-religious frenzy.

{A new-atheist’s claim of there being no God is as much a statement of faith as the Christian’s belief of there being One. The new-atheists will rail on, vehemently, when faced with this more than obvious truth, but the fact remains that new-atheism is nothing more than another religion: a religion that believes and hopes in the non-existence of God and with a more than radical and fanatical faith. New-atheists have no substantial evidence to support their belief in no-god, whereas Christians have creation itself to explain and justify their belief and faith in God: the universe exists and so do we. The universe is more substantial as evidence for there being a Supernatural Creator than claiming, with the use of fairy-tales (unsubstantiated hypotheses), that the universe and human beings came about through mere chance and mutation (“The Big Bang”, “Natural Selection”): this “reasonable” and “enlightened” (faith-based) version of creation, in my estimation, verges on mental and emotional illness. As any honest scientist will verify, if any still exist, there has never been anything proven to be created out of nothing.}

The new-atheists, agnostics and pagans cry out for separation of church and state, and yet they don’t mind seeking to have the judicial system and government systematically, and covertly, remove the rights of those who believe in the Christ. The new-atheist will claim they despise all religious faiths, but, when it gets down to it, they almost always direct their attacks at the sons and daughters of the One True God.

{Warning, the following may be considered “intolerant”! The reason new-atheists attack Christianity more often than other religions is simple: the Truth of our Lord sticks in the crawl of their god, Satan, and, thus, Satan urges them to attack the sons and daughters of the Living God. Satan knows that all other religions are false, since he helped, with the aid of fallen human beings, to bring them into existence. The new-atheist, needless to say, is totally oblivious to this reality!}

The majority of people can REASON well enough to sense there is a realm beyond the physical or material, a realm where the supernatural exists and rules (evil and good). The REASON man has believed in a supernatural being and Spiritual realm, from the beginning, is due to the fact that the existence of God is evident in the creation. But evidently a small percentage of human beings are so learning disabled, so blind and deaf, they cannot truly sense what surrounds them:

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. 20For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are WITHOUT EXCUSE. (Romans 1)

…in whose case the god of this world has BLINDED THE MINDS of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. (2 Corinthians 4: 4)

I may be wrong about this woman’s motives, but if I am, she must be either extremely naive, confused or not too bright. Why would any new-atheist, in their right mind (if that’s a possibility), believe they could teach in a religious school system without, sooner or later, being exposed, confronted and held accountable? Perhaps this woman is at a Spiritual crossroad in her life and uncertain of what she believes? If this is the case, then let me say that I am truly sorry for jumping to a false conclusion! You know, a “false conclusion” like, “I can’t see, hear, smell or touch Him, so, therefore, there is no God.”

The fact is, this woman agreed to the terms of a contract to teach in a Catholic school, and, therefore, she is bound by that contract. She must have known that she would be held accountable for her actions outside of the classroom, just as any other contracted teacher, whether in a public, private or parochial school, knows their actions outside of the classroom can adversely affect their career longevity. This is why I believe this woman knew exactly what she was doing.

The Desensitizing, Dehumanizing Effect of Evolution & Eugenics/Genetics on the Human Mind and Heart (the Cognitive and Affective Domains)! (Follow-Up)

J. Craig Venter (Darwinian Megalomaniac) Proclaims, "It's Alive! My 'Synthetic Bacterium' is Alive! There is no God! I'm God"

This is a follow-up post to The Desensitizing & Dehumanizing Affect of Evolution & Eugenics/Genetics!.

As a former composer, I understand that taking a small segment of existing music (melody, chord progression) and using that small segment to create a new piece of music is not composition (the creation of new music), it is, instead, the “arranging” of music that already exists:

The American Federation of Musicians defines arranging as “the art of preparing and adapting an already written composition for presentation in other than its original form

via Arrangement – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Arranging, then, is different from the creation of new music (composition): musical composing is the act of creating new music. So a composer, in one sense, is a creator, whereas an “arranger” is a person who uses an existing composition to produce a “musical arrangement”.

In much the same way, then, a group of “young Frankensteins” (“genetic scientists”) can take previously created (God breathed) DNA and, with the help of a computer program, ARRANGE it in such a way as to produce, or MAKE (not create), a “synthetic” cell. This arranging of life is not creation, nor does it solve any mystery about life, since the DNA (or DNA model) used for replication, by this computer software, had already been created by the Lord, in the beginning.

On May 20th, 2010, it was announced that a bacterial cell had been “synthetically created”:

May 20, 2010

Researchers say they created a ‘synthetic cell’

by Nicholas Wade

The New York Times

The genome pioneer J. Craig Venter has taken another step in his quest to create synthetic life, by synthesizing an entire bacterial genome and using it to take over a cell.

Dr. Venter calls the result a “synthetic cell” and is presenting the research as a landmark achievement that will open the way to creating useful microbes from scratch to make products like vaccines and biofuels. At a press conference Thursday, Dr. Venter described the converted cell as “the first self-replicating species we’ve had on the planet whose parent is a computer.”

This is a philosophical advance as much as a technical advance,” he said, suggesting that the “synthetic cell” raised new questions about the nature of life

Other scientists agree that he has achieved a technical feat in synthesizing the largest piece of DNA so far… (emphasis added)

via Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life.

Let’s look at the word “synthetic”:

1) Relating to, involving, or of the nature of synthesis.
2) Chemistry. Produced by synthesis, especially not of natural origin.

a) Not natural or genuine; artificial or contrived: “counterfeit rhetoric that flourishes when passions are synthetic” (George F. Will).
b) Prepared or made artificially

Seems to me this “materialistic scientific” zealot is jumping, as is the case with most Darwinian atheists, to a totally unsubstantiated conclusion: Venter hasn’t created anything, he’s simply taken what the Lord created and ARRANGED it into a “synthetic” form (“not natural or genuine, artificial or contrived”), and with the help of a computer program no less! I don’t believe I remember anything about the Lord needing the help of a computer program to create the entire universe.

"I'm so Alone!"

By this young Frankenstein’s use of the word “synthetic”, he has only succeeded in disqualifying his weak ARRANGEMENT of the Lord’s DNA from being considered “a creation”, according to the original meaning of the word:

Creation:

The divine act by which, according to various religious and philosophical traditions, the world was brought into existence.

When this developmentally arrested, in a philosophical, moral and ethical sense, ne’er-do-well (modern eugenics monster) creates a brand new form of life, alive and functioning, and from scratch (not ARRANGED), then he can claim there is no God, and he is the creator: by “a brand new form of life”, I mean a living cell that comes into existence through the use of something other than DNA (real or “synthetic”). Until he’s created this totally new form of life, Venter simply needs to go back to his Frankenstein lab and merely think of himself as an “ARRANGER” of the Lord’s Creation. That is if Venter doesn’t want his Creator sending a not “synthetically produced” bacterium to cause serious damage to him and his assistant (Igor: “Yes, master!”): you know, like “plagues”, the “wrath of God” stuff!

{Just kidding, the Lord is probably laughing at this overeducated twerp and his little “ARRANGED” cell. In the eyes of the only Creator, Venter is probably just another atheist mouse who is attempting to roar! Or to coin Will Shakespeare: “What fools these mortals be!”}

So, I will close with an “ARRANGEMENT” of an old country hit’s lyrics: “Mothers, don’t let your boys grow up to be Darwinian atheists!” If you do, this will be the result: lab coated socio, psychopaths!

Behold, to the LORD your God Belong Heaven…, the Earth and All that is in It.” (Deuteronomy 10: 14)

As I’ve listened to the ramblings of unregenerate postmodern/Darwinian/materialists, over the past few years, I have noted that their “scientific” rhetoric always seems to be in a state of perpetual change (chaos). And yet they continue to paint their pseudo-religious (atheistic) dogma, masquerading as science, as the absolute truth: “evolution is a fact”, but always changing, “global warming” has changed to “global climate change”, and then back to “global warming” again. These lovers of the environment (and self) attempt to manipulate the rest of us, through the media, the government, and our public schools and universities, into becoming “green” advocates who are always aware of our so-called “carbon footprints”. They forecast, almost constantly, short and long-term dire predictions for the environment, which can only be avoided, of course, by jumping on board their materialistic bandwagon and fighting “the system”: “the (very same) system” they operate. Ten years ago, one of their major gurus (Al Gore) predicted that, within a short period of time, New York City would have ocean water flowing through its streets. Most of these so-called “men and women of science” cannot even predict the temperature for the next two days. And yet, in spite of their blatant meteorological incompetence, we are still expected to believe they can predict what the climate will be like in ten, twenty or even one-hundred years from now.

The Spiritual blindness and ignorance of the unregenerate atheist, and their extreme willingness to be led around here and there, this way and that, by every false “scientific” hypothesis (Satanic prophecy), is, in my Spiritual sense, one of many signs that this age is coming, quickly, to an end. In particular, we can observe this type of being-led-around-by-the-intellectual-nose characteristic among the unregenerate and pagan worshipers of “Mother Earth”. These blind and naive types will accept any hypotheses put forth by materialistic “science”; whether there be any substantiating evidence or not.

{The postmodern/Darwinian type (atheist or “religious” believer) is as easily manipulated by materialistic “scientists” as a young girl is manipulated by a current “pop” star. The postmodern/Darwinian is driven by his or her need to be “cool”, to be accepted by unregenerate society as a “tolerant” (on “cool” issues: homosexuality, environmentalism, [politically-correct]) and “Mother Earth” loving person. This type of person becomes almost giddy when they hear one of their materialistic gurus spewing out some new, but always changeable, fact of “science”: it’s rather like having to watch a mindless and mediocre sit-com which never ends. But this one will end, eventually!}

These particular people are not only made up of the unregenerate atheist, but we will also find, unfortunately, the nominal Christian actively involved in this type of “scientific” lunacy as well: these “religious” folk all recycle, they wear buttons claiming to be “Green” advocates, they write their congressmen and even take part in ungodly, rebellious demonstrations. They claim to be “good stewards of the environment” and quote scripture to back up their defense.

{Here is what a “good steward” amounts to in the Word of God: “As each one has received a special gift (Spiritual), employ it in serving one another as GOOD STEWARDS of the manifold grace of God.” (1 Peter 4:10) The stewardship mentioned in the Word of God has nothing at all to do with the concerns of this temporal and decaying world! As believers, our true stewardship in the Lord is to be concerned only with the Spiritual gifts which have been given us: gifts meant to be used for an eternal Spiritual purpose.}

These part-time professors of the Word snatch one little piece of scripture, which is taken totally out of context, and then build a personalized doctrinal rationalization that denies other scriptural Truths. In this type of scriptural interpretation, these world-loving believers can, as always, do as they see fit in their own eyes, as opposed to seeking and doing what the Lord commands of them:

There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death. (Proverbs 14: 12)

Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? (2 Corinthians 6: 14)

The fact of this whole environmental matter is this (according to the Word of God): fallen man IS destroying his environment and HAS BEEN for the last six thousand years, and in much the same way as he has been destroying himself and those around him: through greed and the desire for power to control others; a desire based solely on self-survival at all cost. The destruction (the passing away) of the earth began on the day man was driven from the garden and his intimate relationship with the Creator; and it has continued to accelerate since that fateful day:

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.

11 Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness [?], 12 looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat! 13 But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells. (2 Peter 3)

Therefore, man will continue to destroy his environment in much the same way he always has, no matter how hard he strives to circumvent the assured final outcome. Unregenerate man is beyond repair (as is his environment); unless, of course, he should be called to repent and accept the Lord and His Truth, and then, although his environment will be destroyed, man himself will be saved from the coming Judgment and Destruction.

But, in all of this soon-coming destruction, there is the promise and hope of our Lord’s perfect will being accomplished: “But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.” According to this scripture, our hope is not to be in this decaying and dying planet. Our hope is to be in the promise of our Lord that there will be new heavens and a new earth filled with His Righteousness, Justice, Light and Life:

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He will dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them, 4 and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.”

5 And He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” And He said, “Write, for these words are faithful and true.” (Revelation 21)

One Byproduct of an Ungodly and Delusional Mind!

The Darwinian/Naturalist atheist (or however one would describe such a lost human being) has nothing to hold on to but this dying planet and a distorted guessing-game (“materialistic science”), which he or she holds as some form of absolute, but always changing, “truth”: a worldly, corrupted “truth” with no basis at all, beyond that of its own blind and arrogant speculations. This worldly kind of “truth” only serves to keep people constantly on a virtual merry-go-round of “do this” or “don’t do that”; a “making-it-up-as-we-go” existence devoid of any of our Lord’s Truth and Life. {The sad thing is that the nominal “church”, in much the same way, keeps its confused captives jumping through the false and meaningless merry-go-round of its apostate doctrines and dogma.}

This kind of Godless and confused existence is a very sad thing to observe, but even worse is to see those who belong to our Lord, those having had the chance to discern the Truth, being yoked with the unregenerate in their confused darkness:

And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4 in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see THE LIGHT of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. (2 Corinthians 4)

These apostate believers have become double-minded: they go to “church” and profess to some form of Godliness, but they have denied its Truth and Power and have turned aside, instead, to unregenerate fables and old wives tales. These “religious” folk love the world as much, or even more, as they love their Lord and Savior, but, sadly, most are totally unaware of this fact:

But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. 2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, 4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 HOLDING TO A FORM OF GODLINESS, ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE DENIED ITS POWER; AVOID SUCH MEN AS THESE. (2 Timothy 3)

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6 But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, 8 being a DOUBLE-MINDED man, unstable in all his ways. (James 1)

Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. 17 The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever. (1 John 2)

“Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him…” How much clearer can the Apostle John be here? If we’re more concerned with the interests of this temporal world than the eternal interests of the Lord, then we become like Peter, just shortly after Jesus had commended him for having received revelation (of Who Jesus truly was) from the Father:

From that time Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised up on the third day. 22 Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “God forbid it, Lord! This shall never happen to You.” 23 But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God’s interests, but man’s.” (Matthew 16)

James, the earthly brother of Jesus, sternly warns us about becoming friendly with this unregenerate world:

You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. (James 4: 4)

We must remember that the Creator and owner of this planet is still in charge: “Behold, to the Lord your God belong the heaven and the high heavens, the earth and all that is in it.” The Father Himself will determine when His Son returns and the processing of His righteous judgment takes place. Our Father in heaven will decide what happens in this world and throughout the universe He created, not pompous and easily fooled mankind!

The current earth and heavens are going to pass away, and there is nothing we can do to circumvent that end. We are not here to save this world or those in it, we are here to become the corporate heavenly man (the Body of Christ) the Father desires us to become through, and for, His Son. We must not allow ourselves to be distracted by the passing fancies of the unregenerate mind, nor can we allow ourselves to be distracted by the nominal “church’s” apostate doctrines and “missions”. We must seek out the Spirit’s leading and follow, as best we can, His instructions, and then we will come to know what we must accomplish, through the Christ in us, here and now!

Therefore we do not lose heart, but though our outer man is decaying, yet our inner man is being renewed day by day. 17 For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, 18 while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are TEMPORAL, but the things which are not seen are ETERNAL. (2 Corinthians 4)

An Unregenerate Perversion of Materialistic Science

When we believe, without substantiation, that human life came about by chance and mutation (“natural selection”), and that man has no other existence beyond this brief eighty year span, then we, without knowledge and discernment, devalue life in every human being (and nature also). This devaluing of life, then, leads to all kinds of perversions and atrocities, since there is, in this warped, Godless view, no sanctity or preciousness of life: in this ugly scenario, there is nothing after this life but darkness and nothingness, and this darkness and nothingness leads to a degenerating of mankind, in mankind’s own subconscious mind and heart.

And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; 32 and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them. (Romans 1)

The following Pew Forum article is just one example of this kind of darkness, this kind of degenerate (“reasonable”, “intellectual”) disease:

Elderly in suicide pill Christmas gift swaps

by Jeremy Pierce

The Courier-Mail

Elderly couples are buying each other suicide kits as Christmas presents, says controversial euthanasia campaigner Dr Philip Nitschke.

Speaking at Tweed Heads yesterday on a new “peaceful pill” suicide method being developed overseas, Dr Nitschke’s comments sent right-to-life campaigners and church groups into a frenzy.

Asked whether it was in the spirit of the season to be publicising ways of ending life just a week before Christmas, Dr Nitschke said he was always going to attract criticism.”Our main opposition is from religious groups who would still be getting outraged at Easter, or any other time of year for that matter,” he said. (emphasis added)

via Religion News: Elderly in suicide pill Christmas gift swaps.

For those with no faith in the Lord (their Creator), suffering can be overwhelming, but the suffering they endure, now, will be nothing in comparison to that which they will experience as they stand before their Creator on that coming day. On that day there will be no excuses accepted for pain and suffering in this world. Besides, many unregenerate and arrogant people choose to commit suicide simply because they believe it’s their right: these self-absorbed “advanced primates” believe they have the right to a “dignified” death.

Here is what the Lord has to say on this subject:

‘You shall not murder. (Deuteronomy 5: 17)

Euthanasia, or assisted suicide, and suicide are murder!

Christendom’s Apostate Fellowship with the Pagan and Unregenerate World: Yet Another Example! (Follow-Up)

A "False Prophet"

This is a follow-up post to, Christendom’s Apostate Fellowship with the Pagan and Unregenerate World: Yet Another Example!

Jesus told his disciples,

Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many. 12 “Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold. 13 “But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. 14 “This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come. (Matthew 24)

With over one-third of the earth’s population claiming to be Christian, why, then, hasn’t the Kingdom of God been preached throughout this world yet?

{Note: this prophetic statement by our Lord and Savior refers to the end of this current age, so I am not suggesting that the nominal “church” (Christendom) will accomplish this task. It will NOT!}

Well, one reason, among millions, might be that those who claim to be the Lord’s representatives on earth (the so called “men of God”) are far too busy making money and being yoked with materialistic/atheistic “science”, as the following Pew Forum article shows:

Pope calls for action on climate change

by Alessandra Rizzo

The Associated Press

VATICAN CITY – Pope Benedict XVI called for urgent action to protect the environment, saying Tuesday that climate change and natural catastrophes threaten the rights to life, food, health — and ultimately peace.

In his annual message on the Roman Catholic Church’s World Day of Peace, the pope argued that the world’s economic, social, and environmental problems are moral crises that require mankind to rethink its way of living.

“We can no longer do without a real change of outlook which will result in new life-styles,” he said, touching again on a theme that has earned him a reputation as the “green pope.”

Benedict called on advanced societies to adopt “more sober lifestyles,” reducing energy consumption and favoring energy-efficient policies. He encouraged research into ways to exploit solar energy, to manage forests and to improve waste disposal. (emphasis added)

via Religion News: Pope calls for action on climate change.

Here is the very definition of Spiritual and scriptural ignorance:

In his annual message on the Roman Catholic Church’s World Day of Peace, the pope argued that the world’s economic, social, and environmental problems are moral crises that require mankind to rethink its way of living.

First of all, the word of God tells us that peace will return to the earth ONLY when Christ returns, in great power and glory, to establish His dominion in heaven and on earth. So a “World Day of Peace” is nothing more than a political and economic hoax perpetrated by the Vatican: a mere papal advertising ploy (as well as a blatant sign of unbelief and willful, Spiritual and scriptural ignorance: apostasy) for a “church” whose pews are becoming, every passing Sunday, increasingly more empty.

The pope, with all of his “religious” (idolatrous) posturing, evidently still believes, as does any mere atheist, that man has the answers to the major issues which threaten his existence: “…the pope argued that the world’s economic, social, and environmental problems are moral crises that require mankind to rethink its way of living.” As opposed to discerning and applying the word of God to these problems, and realizing that the only solution is to seek the return of Christ, Benedict XVI (a traitor to the Lord), instead, seeks to align himself with this corrupt and blinded world system: “The ‘Green’ Pope”

Here are just a few scriptures that Benedict XVI should take to mind and heart:

Do not be bound together with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness? (2 Corinthians 6: 14)

Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not lose heart, 2 but we have renounced the things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness or adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation of truth commending ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. 3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4 in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. (2 Corinthians 4)

You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. (James 4: 4)

Here is yet another article on the subject of “global climate change” which reveals the apostate nature of Christendom:
