Okay, maybe the title is a little dramatic, but I think I may just include this as a daily…or near-daily post.

Are Christians Mentally Ill? From Answers in Genesis

www.4thought.tv: “Should creationism be taught in schools? ”

Creationists are accused of conspiring to create intellectual prisoners. Philosophy lecturer Stephen Law makes vociferous accusations there, offering curious criteria for mental illness. Law, calls creationism “pernicious scientific nonsense.”

He says: “Teaching creationism in any class as fact is to teach children things which we know not to be true.”

Leftists who have it in for Christians and try to assert that their so-called science trumps the bible and what the Bible says about creation – are like Lysenko biologists; who were politically driven scientists who were more about politics than science. More often than not, the critics of creationist theory belong to the Church of Global Warming, which takes a lot more ‘blind faith’ to believe in than it does to believe in the Bible.

Creationists never teach creationism as fact, that I have seen or witnessed. But this Stephen Law with no theological background and no scientific background takes pleasure in asserting that they do.

What Creationists seek is the truth. It’s there in the Bible, and it’s there in science if you apply the scientific method. Unfortunately today, the scientific method isn’t used because they posit a conclusion and back their ‘facts’ into that conclusion, and throw out anything that doesn’t fit. (Just like Trofim Lysenko.)

Something other than the theory of evolution should be taught in schools, which would allow and encourage a child or a young adult to think about it and weigh out the different ideas, based on their merits. And that’s what leftists really are afraid of, because the theory of evolution is a victorian-era myth that doesn’t stand up to scrutiny.

But much like leftists on Global Warming they want the world to believe that the Theory of Evolution is all that is out there, case closed.  Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed explains how intellectual diversity is met in the classroom on this subject, and even in the scientific community. The debate is over, they say. Teaching Intelligent Design, as an example, as opposed to the Theory of Evolution, or perhaps all three together (because Intelligent Design and Creationism are not the same)- we would be offering our children true intellectual diversity, which is what education is supposed to be about.

Evolution is, in fact, taught in schools as ‘fact’ when there is much evidence that points to the problems with the theory. To my knowledge, those problems are not explored or even touched upon in classrooms. Evidence used to push the theory turned out to be falsified, such as the skull of piltdown man, which turned out to be a human skull coupled with the jaw of an orangutan. Then there is the peppered moths myth, but remember – this is just a color variation within a specie. These moths didn’t mutate into elephants or anything else. And vestigial organs are not remnants of evidence of evolution; those organs actually have a purpose. And the list keeps getting longer.

Consider that there are missing transitional forms in the fossil record. or that dead chemicals cannot become alive on their own; life suddenly emerging out of dead chemicals never occurred in any experiment in a laboratory. And design is apparent in the world around us. Mutations never improve a life form. Or…take the second law of thermodynamics as another. The Second Law of Thermodynamics refers to the universal tendency for things, on their own, to “mix” with their surrounding environment over time, becoming less ordered and eventually reaching a steady-state. A glass of hot water becomes room temperature, buildings decay into rubble, and the stars will eventually burn out leading to the “heat death” of the universe. However, the evolutionary scenario proposes that over time things, on their own, became more ordered and structured.

Those problems among others should be exposed and given the light of day in the classrooms. The theory of evolution, after all, is not a fact, it is a theory.

Go to the Institute for Creation Research and see what creation scientists really say with examples of the scientific evidence available that points to a 6,000 year old new earth, rather than what a ‘philosopher’ who likes to hear himself talk, says.

Answers in Genesis said it very well:

Answers in Genesis has never suggested teachers of any persuasion be forced to teach creationism but rather has always maintained students and teachers should have academic freedom to critically examine scientific facts and the worldviews by which they are interpreted. Learning to exercise discernment when presented with facts and interpretations frees the intellect, not imprisons it.

Here’s another disgusting news bit that makes my skin crawl.

Senate Approves Bill that Legalizes Sodomy and Bestiality in U.S. Military

(CNSNews.com) – (Updated) The Senate on Thursday evening voted 93-7 to approve a defense authorization bill that includes a provision which not only repeals the military law on sodomy, it also repeals the military ban on sex with animals–or bestiality.

On Nov. 15, the Senate Armed Services Committee had unanimously approved S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act, which includes a provision to repeal Article 125 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).

Article 125 of the UCMJ makes it illegal to engage in both sodomy with humans and sex with animals.

It states: “(a) Any person subject to this chapter who engages in unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy. Penetration, however slight, is sufficient to complete the offense. (b) Any person found guilty of sodomy shall be punished as a court-martial may direct.”

Permitting bestiality along with sodomy…? And in the military? What are these people smoking?

And here’s another:

Unlicensed Doc Pleads Guilty to Killing Babies in Philly Abortion Case

The medical school graduate who admitted to snapping the necks of at least 100 moving and breathing babies born in Dr. Kermit Gosnell’s abortion clinic pleaded guilty to third-degree murder in the deaths of two late-term babies.

Steven Massof, 49, of Pittsburgh, pleaded guilty on Thursday to two counts of third-degree murder, murder conspiracy and other charges.

Massof testified to a grand jury that he regularly delivered babies whose mothers were induced, snipped the umbilical cords and then cut the babies’ spinal cords, as it was “standard procedure.”

When asked how often this happened, Massof answered:

“More times than I really care to remember. I would have to say every week it would happen to at least 50 percent of the patients.”

Those are the main three that have really galled me over the last few days…

I’m sure there will be more coming up soon.
