the Religion of Science

Today is Sunday, so it's time for a little Sunday School.

Anderson Cooper of CNN has a series going on called "What is a Christian?" Fascinating subject matter, whether you are a believer or not.

Immediately, however, it was apparent that those producing and writing the segment did not understand what they were talking about (and the secular progressives accuse us of not having the facts straight). The show quoted Jerry Falwell as saying that Global Warming, for example, was redirecting the church's primary focus. Then Anderson Cooper inserted his own opinion, saying "redirecting the primary focus from gays and abortion."

To a Christian the primary focus is not those things. The primary focus to a Christian is God, and spreading His good news.

Okay, folks, I make it no secret that I am a Christian. I also make it no secret that I respect folks regardless of what they believe. However, I don't appreciate what I believe being misrepresented, or oppressed while the enemy's ideology is given the key to the nation.

In fact, the ideology of multiculturalism dictates that Christians must be silenced because they are "narrowly-focused" and that Islam must not be made to assimilate into our culture, but rather be allowed to cling proudly to their Islamic beliefs and traditions. The multiculturalist liberal believes we should embrace the enemy's belief system and respect their ways - not realizing that whatever we do in regards to the war on Islam there will continue to be more jihads. That is their belief system (note that Christianity's message is of love - that is "love" liberals, not stupidy. If a sword is at my throat, I will defend myself).

Anderson Cooper's show gets even more interesting as it progresses. He defends the removal of God from the classroom (using the misunderstanding of the Constitution's so-called seperation of church and state, which, of course, is not constitutional in the first place if you study it) and instead throwing Christianity out of the classroom and replacing it with a different religion - the religion of secular progressivism.

Or at this rate, the church and state fusion of Islam may replace all of this. After all, Muslims believe they can legitimately wage war against anyone who resists the proclamation of Islam. They believe that they have been commanded to fight against people, forcing their faith upon others with a sword, rather than through the love of the unsaved soul as with Christianity.

In the final segment of the show the science portion of it focuses on our genetic makeup as humans and begins proclaiming that the tendency to have faith is based on one's DNA, treating faith as if it is a disease, or something.

Well, gosh, if that was the case, the entire DNA of every Muslim is hardwired to be a violent fundamental murderer, or to support such actions (you know damn-well they were all dancing in the streets on 9/11 - I saw the video.)

Well, read the transcript of the show yourself and come to your own conclusions. The link is at the beginning of this post. All I know is, regardless of whether you are a believer in God, or a non-believing person, you have to admit that our nation was founded on Judeo-Christian values (liberals will tell you it was based on secularism, and then will use Turkey's drive to be secular as an example - and more Christians have been murdered under secular regimes in Turkey than under Islamic regimes, surprisingly; source: Islam Unveiled by Robert Spencer). Without values and consideration for each other, we become nothing more than a pack of animals chasing after our own demoralizations.

My guest next Saturday was a United States Marine, and now is a school teacher and fellow blogger. He is highly involved in the school system, and recognizes the agenda that is being pumped into our children. The public school system is being used by the secular progressives to indoctrinate our children, using their liberal belief system, sprinkled with a little bit of the environmentalist and homosexual agenda while they're at it. And then, because they fear losing control of our children, have done all they can to stop a voucher system that would force the schools to compete with private schools, and allow folks who couldn't afford it before to pull their kids out of the crumbling public school system and place them into private schools.

The secular progressive refuse to allow the teaching of God as being a possibility because they believe that He is factually incorrect and that science has proven the Bible to be false.

Nothing has been disproven.

Actually, the opposite is true. Everytime they try to prove biblical text wrong, science accidentally proves it as being a possibility. For example, proof of the wandering of the Jews under the guidance of Moses in the desert for 40 years has been proven by infrared scanning of the Saudi Desert by satellites, which exposed evidence of wanderings through the desert from Egypt, calculated to be, at the pace of human walking (and taking into account time needed for sleep and meals) to be about 40 years of wandering, as dictated by biblical text. And scientists, silenced when they come to such conclusions, are admitting that the Bible is an accurate historical record - and if that is accurate - well, you can come to your own conclusions on that. However, there is an amazing censorship of any scientist that questions any anti-Christian agenda, or Darwinism, or human-caused global warming.

Why is that?

One such scientist, Dr. Frances Collins (spoken of in the transcript) is the Director of the Human Genome Project, and former non-believer in God; but after mapping out the tens of thousands of genes that make up the blueprint of humanity he decided that the complexity of it all was not a triumph of science, but a triumph of faith. He considered it a glimpse into God's mind.

In the end, the decision to believe is between you and God, and such a belief system cannot be, and shouldn't be, forced upon you. As a Christian I can provide what I believe to be adequate information to assist you in your considerations, but it is your decision whether or not to come to faith. I hate no one, and I love all that I encounter, regardless of faith, and I won't threaten to chop your head off if you reject Christ. Those that support Allah beg to differ.

You are entitled to believe what you may. But wouldn't it be prudent to consider the possibility that there may possibly be a living, loving God?

Just for fun, watch this: The Watchmaker.
