Atheist Dawkins OK with Cannibalism?

See the source image

(Thanks to Linda for the news tip)

This almost qualifies as comic relief. But not quite.

Atheist all-star Richard Dawkins, looking to find a new gig after defending “mild pedophilia” (don’t ask!) and pressing for the abortion of all babies with Down’s syndrome, has come out in favor of… cannibalism (https://fellowshipoftheminds.com/2018/03/07/richard-dawkins-says-we-should-get-over-our-yuck-taboo-against-cannibalism/).

Oh, he doesn’t mean chasing someone down, conking him over the head, and tossing him into a cooking pot. Heavens no. He wants “lab-grown” human meat: “I’ve been looking forward to this,” he says. Yessiree, human flesh grown in a culture vat. Bon appetite. But if you’ve ever read Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Synthetic Men of Mars, you know that once you start growing bits of people in a culture vat, you don’t always get what you want.

Have I mentioned that Dawkins thinks space aliens “seeded” life on earth?

This jidrool, who calls atheists “brights” to distinguish them from us “dim” normal people who still believe in God, says chowing down on people-meat will be “an interesting test case for consequentialist morality versus ‘yuck reaction’ absolutism.”

What’s “consequentialist morality?” Well, instead of those tired old moral absolutes handed down by God, this says you determine by its consequences whether an action is morally good or bad. It’s kind of a nice name for moral imbecility. Let us not burden ourselves with questions like “consequences to whom?” Anyone but a true interllectural can see through this.

While there is something appealing about the idea of atheists and other leftids making happy meals of one another, only to be disappointed by what they find when they open up the skull, and quibbling over who gets the nicer bits of Bill Nye or Neil DeGrasse Tyson, we know they’d never do the world such a favor as that. If they can’t get their din-din from a culture vat, they’ll go after Climbit Change Deniers. Or whatever they can buy from Planned Parenthood.

No, it isn’t really funny. Leftids have no sense of humor.

Dawkins isn’t joking. He really is that loathsome.

 

‘Feds: Jack-O’-Lanterns Cause Global Warming’ (2015)

Please don’t say you’re feeling nostalgic for the Obama administration.

Remember this? On your dime, the federal government warned us in 2015 that our Halloween pumpkins with the candles in ’em contribute to Climbit Change and omibaal we’re all gonna die–!

Let’s hope President Trump has fired whoever was responsible for this.

Build a Better World–with LSD!

See the source image

Damn! If only I were some kind of expert, I, too, could come up with cool ideas like this!

Following news reports that assorted techies are now taking LSD to increase their productivity, an expert in Spain says taking LSD can reorganize your brain in a “harmonizing” way, “just like improvising jazz musicians,” leading to “more openness” and a greater willingness to try new things (http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/article203341684.html#fmp). Even if they’re incredibly bad new things.

As if it weren’t bad enough that all our wannabe world-improvers are as crazy as bedbugs to begin with, now they want to give themselves “an extra edge” by taking hallucinogenic drugs.

Is that where all these swell ideas are coming from? Gender fluidity, free money for all, free college tuition for everybody, compulsory exercise at work–they’ve all been doing drugs? Well, that would certainly explain what they’re doing to our civilization.

So let’s all bomb our brains with drugs, and see what we come up with.

It’s gonna be great! What could possibly go wrong?

‘Scientists Say It’s Okay to Lie for Climate Change’ (2016)

This refers back to a 2014 peer-reviewed published paper by a couple of, ahem, scientists who said it was okay to exaggerate Climbit Change if you could trick the public into believing in it and obeying them. They accuse those who disagree with them of spreading propaganda.

Come, Lord Jesus, come!

 

‘I Stand Corrected’ (2013)

I’m still amazed, always, when I encounter conspiracy theories that say dinosaurs never existed, they’re just a massive hoax cooked up by “the corporations” or whoever. How did so many people come to think this way–if you can even call it thinking?

‘Play God… and Go to Jail’ (2012)

Remember this? Italian scientists sent to prison because they failed to predict an earthquake… Didn’t King Nebuchadnezzar used to do that? Send for the prognostickators and the astrologers and the Chaldeans and threaten to kill them if they failed to interpret his dream…

The New Killer! ‘Religious Trauma Syndrome’

Well, thanks to Science, we now know why so many people are so messed up. It’s because they have Religious Trauma Syndrome (https://valerietarico.com/2013/03/26/religious-trauma-syndrome-is-it-real/).

The term was coined two years ago by Dr. Marlene Winell, and it’s starting to catch on. It has to do with “toxic religion” and “harmful experiences within religion,” which supposedly scar you for life and lead to all sorts of self-destructive behaviors.

But what is “toxic religion”? Winell says it’s religion that’s “controlling” and insists on conformity. But that could apply equally to–well, to going to college, these days. See what happens to you in a college classroom if you buck the party line.

I think we all know what perverted religion would look like, and would agree that it does harm. But Dr. Winell warns of “toxic teachings like eternal damnation and original sin.”

She cannot distinguish between genuine “toxic religion” and mainstream Biblical teaching.

Ah, but there’s a cure–atheism! Or at least conversion to some kind of waffy-daffy “spirituality” that tells you that you’re good, you’re the cat’s pajamas, whatever you believe is true, everybody goes to Heaven, light a scented candle and you’re home free, blah-blah-blah.

I mean, really, doc! Non-religious people don’t have these same problems?

Bottom line: it’s just another secularist stab at building a morality-free society with themselves sitting on top of it.

New Dinosaur Found in Egypt

Mansourasaurus: note the little armored plates upon its back, a feature not found in the super-gigantic sauropods… so far.

(Thanks to “Unknowable” for the news tip.)

A new dinosaur, Mansourasaurus, has been discovered in Egypt. It appears to be a sort of downsized brontosaur, or sauropod, a bit over 30 feet long.

The find is significant for two reasons. It opened a previously unopened geographical area to the search for dinosaur fossils; and it appears to be more closely related to European sauropods than to others found farther south in Africa, casting doubt on the notion that African dinosaurs were totally isolated from the kinds discovered on the northern continents.

The first news reports were just about useless: the noozies didn’t seem to know what they were writing about. They were citing scientists who called it “the Holy Grail” of dinosaur discoveries, but no one troubled himself to explain why that was so.

I hope you don’t mind a dinosaur story now and then. After writing about Sarah Silverman’s profane and fatuous remarks about unborn human babies, I felt the need for something a little less toxic. We can disregard the Evolution baggage that comes with any dinosaur report, and marvel at the complexity and vastness of God’s creative work.

‘Hooray! Gay Caveman Discovered’ (2015)

You get articles like this when politically-driven “science” teams up with incompetent, ignorant “journalists.”

https://leeduigon.com/2015/10/31/hooray-gay-caveman-discovered/

Just goes to show: if Science wants something badly enough, Science will be sure to discover it. Somewhere. Somehow.

Google Gizmo ‘Disables’ Religious References

See the source image

This headline caught my eye: “Google Home Disables All Religious References After Controversy Over Jesus Answer” (https://ijr.com/the-declaration/2018/01/1056523-google-home-disables-religious-references-controversy-jesus-answer/?utm_campaign=conservativedirect&utm_medium=partners&utm_source=email&utm_term=prm32).

Actually, it was a non-answer: Google’s “smart assistant” was “unable to answer questions about Jesus,” although it was okay with questions about Buddha, Mohammed, and Satan. That figures.

Fact: Computers can be no “smarter” than the people who program them. A computer programmed by ninnies will answer as a ninny.

In Luke 9:20, Jesus put the question to his disciples: He said unto them, “But whom say ye that I am?” Peter answering said, “The Christ of God.”

In Acts 16:30, the jailer in Philippi asks Paul and Silas, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”  And they said (v. 31), “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.”

What’s so hard about that?

But Google Home can’t give you those answers because they weren’t in the program, so Google has “temporarily” disabled all religious reference…”to ensure respect.”

Do we really, truly, want to receive our religious instruction from computers programmed by God knows whom? I wonder what amazon.com’s little electronic genius, “Alexa,” would answer if you asked, “Alexa, what must I do to be saved?” Something tells me I don’t want to know the answer to that question. “Believe in Global Warming and gender reassignment…” Don’t ask.

Artificial Intelligence is not “intelligence” in any meaningful sense. The operative word is “artificial.” It is a mindless simulation of intelligence, nothing more.

God’s Word is available for anyone to read at any time.

Don’t ask the idol.
