In my experience, it is a very bad sign when supposedly intelligent people clearly demonstrate that a) they have no sense of humor, and b) they cannot laugh at themselves.

First, check out this video. Now, have a look at this summary of Richard Dawkins' reaction to the video. Recall that this guy is supposed to be an "intellectual."

Sorry, Dick, but you don't get it, and we do. Too funny.

Stupid scientists (which is the bulk of them, I'm afraid) regularly conflate science and naturalism as if they were synonymous. Science is a process (and a body of knowledge and a career, but these are beside the point), that's all. This process may be used within the context of many worldviews. Naturalism, on the other hand, is a worldview and a religion. Naturalism assumes a priori that the physical world (dark matter and dark energy notwithstanding) is all that there was, is, or will be. There is no scientific process behind this presumption; it is as much or more of a leap of faith as is a belief in the supernatural. » read more »

I was just talking with a fellow Messianic believer the other day about this problem. No, not the problem of stupid atheists (if you'll forgive the redundancy), but the problem with believers who cannot defend their faith. All of nature, science, and history screams out in support of Biblical truth, but most believers cannot even begin to understand this. For shame!

Too many believers are happy learning their secular, God-hating worldview from the [evil] government schools and then living with massive cognitive dissonance for the rest of their lives--or worse, just abandoning the Word altogether in favor of lies. » read more »

All believers would do well to study -- not just read, but absorb -- this entertaining dialogue between Vox Day and a science-loving atheist. It contains much ammunition in the event of a discussion with an avowed rational materialist.

I've been exploring the relationship between Original Sin and entropy. This process is rather complex and is based on some presumptions others don't typically make, so I'll try to cover them appropriately. My process is analytical, intuitive, somewhat haphazard, but I hope it will congeal over time into something more complete and sound. » read more »

“If ye believe not” - Over the Memorial Day weekend I had the opportunity to visit a chapel that is noted for its beautiful stained-glass window featuring the prophets Ezekiel, Daniel, Jeremiah, Isaiah and a paraphrase of John 5:46-47 and Luke 16:31: “IF YE BELIEVE NOT IN MOSES AND THE PROPHETS, YE CAN NOT BELIEVE IN ME.” [Answers In Genesis]

The battle heats up - [Answers In Genesis]

The following is a summary of the strategies to fight biblical creationists:

1. They must enlist the “clergy” or “people of faith” to help promote evolution. In fact, they are seeking out pastors for media representation.
2. They must introduce evolution earlier—as early as the first grade! They say junior high is simply too late to convince students about Darwin.
3. Evolutionists will use “bait-and-switch” tactics, with redefinition of terms. They must use terms like “science” instead of “evolution.”

When evolutionists have to go to these lengths to indoctrinate people (children, really), doesn't it make one wonder if it's really factual at all? Sounds a lot like a [false] religion to me! » read more »

Creationists—the new pagans? - Guy Consolmagno, an astronomer who works for the Vatican, has been in the news recently because he has declared that a belief in the doctrine of God creating the universe in six days is “pagan superstition.” [Answers In Genesis]

This Jesuit monk denies Scriptures and calls creationists pagans. Given the overwhelming evidence for creation science, this guy is just a moron! » read more »

Can an evolutionist celebrate Earth Day? - [Answers In Genesis]

Very good essay, IMO.

Is it really any surprise that Scopes was a total sham?
