I can't speak for AV but I interpret scientism as being a fundamentalist religious cult belief that atheist scientists are infallible and have a monopoly on truth.

The corollary to this is that Wikipedia should be treated as infallible holy scriptures that can never be questioned.

So for example, scientism states that viruses can give birth to humans, meteorites do not exist because they are in the Bible, parthenogenesis is impossible because Mary was a virgin, the Milky Way is the entire universe because Harlow Shapley said so, etc.

This matter of choice. Ah, yes, choice is the word the abortionists prefer because it sounds so mild. But when the choice is to murder or not murder, that doesn't sound so mild. The point at which the choice should have been made is 1)whether to have sex and 2) whether to have unprotected sex. To murder the creation as an inconvenience is .....murder. And it's so ironic that pro-abortionists are also against the death penalty. There's some consistent principles for you. Murder the innocent but do not execute the guilty. As for whether the man should have anything to say about it, if you were having sex with your mate inside of a loving marriage, both of you would decide when to have a child, and yes the man would have a say. To pretend that only women should have a choice about a human life that they could not conceive on their own is just....pretend.

How can we protect our own children from being given nightmares by these visions of environmental doom spewed out by politicians, academics, news personalities, and idiotic movie stars? How can we protect them from being taken in by this scam? A solid Biblical foundation is a must. Faith in God and His Word is a shield that will protect us from all the fiery darts of the wicked. Teach children, for instance, to take Psalm 24 literally: “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.”

To believe in catastrophic, extinction-causing, man-made climate change, we must believe in a pitiful, powerless God who sits in a remote corner of heaven wringing His hands, unable to stop His human creatures from destroying His creation and rendering His promises null and void. Is that any kind of God for a Christian to believe in? If God is true (and of course He is), then the prophets of human self-extermination are liars.

We have only ourselves to blame if we send our children off to public schools every day to watch An Inconvenient Truth—Al Gore’s global warming end-of-the-world movie, complete with computer-generated images of drowning polar bears: required viewing in many schools—and have their heads crammed full of Darwinism, radical environmentalism, and the need for an Amazing Colossal Government to solve all our problems. We are much better off following God’s commandment to give our children a godly education, either at home or in a solid Christian school.

[regarding Tiger Woods]

"The extent to which he can recover seems to me depends on his faith," Hume said. "He is said to be a Buddhist. I don't think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith. So, my message to Tiger is, 'Tiger, turn to the Christian faith and you can make a total recovery and be a great example to the world."

Islam is at odds with modernity, at odds with civilization. Always has been and always will be.

And as long as a huge percentage of the practitioners of Islam --a religion that is in reality, a Death Cult, are not content to live their backward lifestyle, but insist that we --you and I, and all of Western Civilization, do also, we will be at WAR with Islam. Unless and until Islam stops trying to turn Western Civilization back to the Stone Age by means of terror, we will be at WAR with Islam.

Western Civilization did not wage war on Islam, and I will be glad when people stop couching this WAR as something we started.

Unless and until we stop telling ourselves that Islam is a Religion of Peace, and that only a small number of Muslims are terrorists, the WAR will continue. Right now, Islam has us by the throat --we've been PCed into kowtowing, but the day will come when we have a leader who really undertands what is at stake, and will set about ending Islam's war on Civilization. Think: Dresden.

Quote# 69551

Global warming adherents are simply replacing God -- Christian or otherwise -- with constructs of their own. It's quite remarkable that socialism or Marxism -- which are generally hostile to religion or faith, which lay claims to objectivity and reality, and which most global warming adherents are in sympathy with -- should fall into the hands of those who, despite their protestations, are decidedly antagonistic to the openness and dissent that in large part makes science science. Granted, socialism and Marxism are frauds (the latter especially), but they maintain some pretense of being reality-tested.

Global warming isn't a religion, not even figuratively. It more resembles a cult. In a couple of generations -- let's hope -- the global warming camp of our time will be seen clearly as having occupied the fringe of science; a heretical (in scientific terms) movement given to wild claims and inspired by a cultish fervency to convert fellow humans to their extreme beliefs -- findings and facts be damned.

Violent extremists in the Christian religion, rare though they may be, occasionally pop up on the radar screen. They can properly be considered apostates from the teachings of Christ, and aberration that isn’t Christianity or condoned by Christians.

Violent extremists in the Islamic religion are practitioners of Islam, acting within the fundamentals of the Islamic faith. They are not rare, given the many violent, inhuman acts that occur in the name of Islam, and receive approval and excuse in the Islamic world.

See the difference?

Where in the world did the idea come from that things left to themselves can improve with time? Who would start a crazy idea like that? This idea is the opposite of everything we observe in the world today. For instance, all the highways in our nation today left to themselves decay, deteriorate and fall apart. A house left to itself will become a wreck. It takes work and constant planning to make anything improve. Everything tends toward disorder.

Q: How are the emails sent out after the rapture if you are all Christians?

A: I have a team, of Christian couples, scattered around the U.S. 4 active couples and one alternate. One of each, of the active couples, are required to log into the system everyday. They are scattered to protect us from having the team wiped out by attack, natural disaster, or epidemic. They are couples in case one is sick, injured, killed, and to assure their walk with God. If they (3 out of 4) fail to log in for 3 days the system figures the Rapture has taken place. There are then notices sent out to each of us daily, for 3 more days, warning us we must log in to prevent the sending of documents. If, we do not, then the system sends out all of the stored data to all of the email addresses. There is one alternate team member to ready as a replacement for a lost teammate. Also one team member is located near enough to the server bank, with access, in case the net goes down, or malfunction.

(A review of James Cameron's latest)

Maybe we should expect spiritual outrageousness from Hollywood by now. After all, they hardly seem to be able to make a spiritual statement in their movies without alienating every Christian in the audience. They have been warned about this before. Michael Medved has stated that Hollywood loses billions of dollars simply by offending Christians and church-goers, who number in the hundreds of millions in America. They often don't seem to care.

But Avatar takes this to a new extreme. Many critics have commented that it has a deeply pro-environmentalist message, and indeed, it seems almost loaded with every touchy-feely New Age environmentalist theme that you can imagine....

It always strikes me as sad when these great breakthroughs in the arts fail to glorify the One who gave us creativity in the first place. Sadly, this is one of those times, and I understand that is why, even after the awe and wonder of seeing one of the greatest visual spectacles of our age, my friend left the theatre feeling pretty flat. I wonder how many others felt the same - even non-Christians. I wonder how many left sensing there was something very wrong at the core of this story. I would guess there might be quite a few.

There have been a lot of complaints about the storyline. Even many non-Christians may not like seeing the "Earth mother goddess" getting all the glory, which is why I gather that this movie will never take top spot as the most-watched film in history, despite all the money spent on it.

Will Hollywood learn its lesson? I strongly doubt it. Hollywood has a very unique agenda and thousands are taken in and deceived.

Will I go and see it for myself? Probably not!

[Re. a person whose girlfriend had an abortion.]

LOL! Hitler is proud of his little socialist. If he would kill his own child, he would have no issue throwing other children in the oven. You are a sick puppy. Hell, even the muzzie terror animals don't kill their unborn. Yall set a new low for humanity. Over 49 MILLION abortions since 1973 in the USofA. Wow, you telling me that children cannot get health care in the US. You are a fukin liar and a hypocrite yourself. If your child was alive, and didn't have health care insurance, you could go to the Health Department or any government assisted health clinic or hospital and it would be taken care of on the government tit. But your child didn't get that option,,, dit it?

The atheist and liberal evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins is quoted as saying: "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control freak ... homophobic, racist, ... capriciously malevolent bully."[2] As far as Conservapedians are aware, the liberal biologist Richard Dawkins has yet to comment on all the diseases associated with homosexuality nor has he commented on the rather portly figures of many in the lesbian community! Perhaps, that is because there are so many diseases associated with homosexuality! Message to Richard Dawkins and his fans: God is good! Richard, perhaps you need to hear it again: God is good! Richard, do you think one of the many reasons why God forbids homosexuality is because an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!

Well, reading the comments by the author and his supporters one would think Athism is the saviour of mankind and religion is made up of a bunch of deluded nutcases.
Projection can do that. The fact is polls, science and common sense show atheism as a losing proposition which places one as an outcast of society bent on destroying what it doesnt understand, doesnt like and conflicts with its own version of a type of "Godless Religion." Its no wonder, after seeing all theese comments that atheists, according to a poll done by the University of Minnesota, shows atheists as the least liked, least trusted, least acceptable group in the USA.
One can only conclude that it is a delusion to think Atheists have any morality at all, save what each individual decides is moral. It is unchecked, anything goes amorality where one can come up with ANY number of moral codes at will and justify them all, convenience of the day.

Quote# 69471

I was homosexual and I know not to allow the media to fool me into believing it is a healthy alternative lifestyle. Most homosexuals have had so many sexual partners they have lost count. Many can say their number of partners is in the hundreds.

Even though AIDS is killing people (including me), the homosexual community continues to spread disease through frequenting bath houses disguised as health spa's, and having countless sexual encounters in one evening. They have sex in public bathrooms and in parks. They experience sexual acts that would make a decent person become sick at hearing about them. The sexual acts are so perverse, I can't put them in print here.

Activists will tell you that the homosexual lifestyle is not all about sex. I say this is a lie. It is all about sex, sexual perversion.

Most homosexuals realize how perverse their lifestyle is. But society no longer has enough convictions to push good morals, so not enough of society cares to do anything about this plague. People fear backlash from the activists. The homosexual lifestyle has become politically correct due to a lack of courage to stand up to sin. It has become 'unfair' for anyone to say that it is wrong or unacceptable. In fact, this article will fall mostly on deaf ears, because when it comes to morals, many people no longer have any.

To portray the homosexual lifestyle as wholesome and acceptable, as the Media does, is simply to ignorantly parrot untrue homosexual propaganda. The truth is that the homosexual lifestyle is an alternative life of degrading and harmful sexual perversion.

Since the end of World War II, I contend that we have an even more wicked, incorrigible enemy that Western civilization must fight, but unlike Hitler's conspicuous legions of Brownshirts and SS shock troops goose-stepping in front of the Reichstag, this enemy of modern times, this Liberal-Muslim Axis has as its greatest weapon deception, lies and Machiavellian tactics. They hide in the halls of Congress, the White House, the courts, behind 501(c)(3) organizations. The Muslim Axis powers hide behind Allah, Muhammad, the Quran, women's burqas, among civilians; inside Mosques, caves and desolate places in the mountains of Pakistan, Afghanistan, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, as well as inside the halls of power in England, France and America.

Conventional wisdom tells us that the greatest trick of the devil was to make everyone believe that he doesn't exist. Likewise, the greatest trick of the Liberal-Muslim Axis is to maneuver and wield vast religious, political and economic power without alerting people who they really are.

In the near future will Christians be imprisoned and their children taken from them to be raised atheistically?
We live in one of the most oppressive and intolerant times that human history has ever seen. We live in an era where you are not allowed at all to pray in public schools or even to say that marriage is between a man and a woman. We are told by the atheist controlled government, academia, and media that all our gods are fake and that we must stop practicing our religion or else we will have our children taken from us lest they be indoctrinated by our "primitive" ways. Anything religious is utter taboo. However, these same people think it is okay to mutilate unborn babies by any means necessary and for whatever reason and they laugh it off and say that humans are not living until they are born and then they call themselves scientists! I will not let more of this oppressive and domineering behavior continue without a fight! You atheists might have suppressed most of us minorities but you still have people like me.
