Gotta love the seasons

Then there are the songbirds with their lovely preludes at dawn. Another blow to godless evolution that cannot prevent the natural symphonies from daily admiration. Per Genesis thanks again.

The common woodpecker has a tongue that wraps around the brain to protect him while drilling. Once more seems odd that evolution wouldn’t jump in to stop this madness eh? Or is this a singular example of a genius and merciful Creator?

Spring had sprung and the weeds are thriving. Ever notice how they effortlessly manifest and multiply, without your help? Pity evolution can’t explain this but Genesis can.

Like a fine tuned clock, spring unfolds the meek lily of the valley with that delectable aroma second to none, blooming at the same time, every year. The perpetuities of nature applaud the Maestro while men mock as if birds, songs, aromas, nests, dens, sunlight, warmth, water, wood, and all else, simply be awarded as cosmic irrelevance. No.

Spring doth magnify the Creator in all His promises. Spring laughs at evolution and atheism. Red, blue, yellow combined make brown the color of dirt. The primary colors are the alphabet of nature. Thanks to what? Not what but Who.

Dare men be so arrogant as to enjoy every emolument of life without nary a head nod to both master artist and musician? Seems that way.

Yet why do men live so as to create? A man cannot go 5 minutes without creating something. We bury a person eulogizing a life and memories they have CREATED, lowering them into the ground, swearing there is no Creator? How blindly stupid can a man be?

Spring. The harbinger of summer. The sounds, scents, and visions of heaven on earth.

Ah yes, the waters above

Gotta luv true science, per, ahem, cough cough, Genesis ch. 1, where the water is laid out in lavender.

Rest assured though, they who guess at gallon work should be embarrassed if they IGNORE the root of water in the first place.

High above earth, did the women complain?

In a day where political correctness was not even in diapers, we see a monumental feat of masculine strength and unequalled fearlessness as the Empire Building went up. Many legal immigrants no doubt, daring to feed their families in a country that provided opportunity.

But where were the equal rights groups crying for equal pay for equal work? Where were the OSHA ladies complaining about unsafe working conditions? Where was the committee of Hard Hats bitching that heads were not protected? Was the govt. group that wrote harness laws out to lunch?

But who were these men who for 1 1/2 years put their lives at daily risk? I’ll tell you. They were men. Walking tightropes of steel like they were walking the streets, climbing, lifting tons of steel, eating lunches high above New York. Where were the female counterparts though? Where were the women’s libbers? This short vid should forever silence the fools of ‘equal opportunity.

I dare the View, the morning shows, the night comedy hours, etc, to show this vid, and then try to defend equal opportunity crap. Diversity, Equity, Inclusion eh? Did you count the female ironworkers??? Need I say more.

Now a plain word to the crowd. No doubt you know I’m all in for women, but a rational mind KNOWS men and women are different. And btw, these men still live today, they just do not need the air time nor need to be photographed.

(Finally, I’m just really glad these brave men did not have to worry about a spinning earth under their feet to make them unstable….)

Who is the great science denier?

Many say it’s yours truly, he who dares to oppose the pontificates of knowledge and science! Yep, the accusations are many, rest assured though, I take them with a grain of salt, and actually consider them as back-handed compliments. Without being unnecessarily wordy, take a look at these recent snippets from the article which came hot off the press today:

‘Scientists have proposed that the wreckage of a long-lost alien world is buried about 1,800 miles under our feet, reports a new study. The mind-boggling hypothesis suggests that strange anomalies in Earth’s interior may be relics of a world that smashed into our planet some 4,5 billion years ago, and that similar ancient remnants may lurk inside other celestial bodies.’

The study continues:

This was painful to read, fortunately much easier to demolish with a few observations, so pay attention to WORDS used by the ‘scientists.’

‘Scientists have PROPOSED.’

‘WRECKAGE’

‘MAY BE relics’

‘ABOUT 1,800 miles…’

‘Mind boggling HYPOTHESIS.’

‘A world that SMASHED into our planet….’

SOME 4,5 billion”

‘Ancient remnants may LURK…’

To add further insult to injury, the moon is collateral damage from debris that ‘coalesced……’

‘So the THEORY GOES.’

Do my friends and readers see the mind-numbing cartoon implications of ‘theoretical’ trash talk which masquerades as science? Can you possibly take serious the words used that insinuate reality when they are nothing but guesswork? A moon that is the result of cosmic debris??????????? What rational mind could even suggest this?

I call this punk-and-junk science, which is nothing but sham theories and endless verbage, which emits blackness and calls it daylight. The self-admitted language of the academics is the very noose which strangles the science fiction of their assertions. Can’t stand it.

Mr. Biden gives a speech?

1,2,3,4 5, 6. 7, 8. 9, 10, 11, 12 people sitting in front of a large screen tv, with volume up- not 1 person is watching. YOU WOULD THINK, that a crisis of monumental proportion, that could have devastating effect on them, that these customers would eagerly sit with ears alert, and show interest in the prez words, but no.

Watching this and giving play by play in real time at an auto dealership.

People have tuned him out as he mindlessly reads in Israel. I’m sitting as a journalist here reporting facts. He looks like he is sleep walking, reading like a machine- full of anecdotes- but people are bored- he’s the prez for God’s sake, and middle America, the bones of the country, does not care what he says.

Sad really, but isn’t he the face of America in all our weakness? No spine, no backbone, where leaders can’t define what a woman or man is, where they are afraid to say dogmatically that there are NOT 30 genders, that a man cannot say he’s female because he THINKS so, so yeah, America has lost all confidence in the alleged powers that be.

Joe farmer is fed up with leaders. So how would you explain this disinterest?

AI is old as the hills

Artificial Intelligence, more commonly known as AI, he’s been around since oh, let’s say, forever.

AI has a twin sister, she is called Atheism. To this day, pretending to be intellectual, but sounding like a broken trumpet on rusty wheels, a really annoying sound, they have a hard time discerning fact from fiction; maybe it’s the parents….

So what do you know?

In 10 short words, God’s word quickly silences all doubters, and forever puts out of business godless evolution.

Let’s assume for a moment shall we, that IF there is a Creator, He would be well aware of man’s petty objections, and nip in the bud any and all gripes as to Who and what started this thing we know as life, and actually put men at ease in their minds, lest they be lost as fog for a lifetime.

God is good like this. He knows, and like a mirror shows our face, He reveals quickly and quietly our deepest yearnings, as men spend a lifetime of asking for ‘proof.’

Ha! So once more assume that IF there is a Creator, He knows more than you. Wrap your brain around that and accept the possibility. Draw a 6″ circle on paper and mark a pencil dot the size of EVERYTHING you know. Should be a whole lot of white space eh?

So within that blank space lies the possibility that my premise up top, is correct. In addition, the equal possibility exists that not only is Genesis actual, factual, reliable, and true, but that everything else that follows is true as well.

To reiterate, there is no other source material that answers so specifically man’s deepest yearnings to know from whence he is. Genesis 1.1 is most settling, and it challenges the honesty of men. Not a good idea to cite the Creator as a liar.

Subsequently, to further prove the veracity of 1.1, what follows regarding botany, astronomy, biology, geography, history, avow even more that common sense is a most valuable asset, and that only the most recalcitrant of hearts would suggest otherwise.

Lots of blank space around your small dot there. ‘In the beginning God.’ Why then must you look to ‘science’ to affirm what it cannot, while you focus on your myopic pencil point of knowledge? Mankind has been extremely pretentious and overly exaggerated with artificial knowledge and atheism for thousands of years, and it is no surprise that AI has been so front and center today. The denial of Genesis 1.1 as fact is like a disease that has plagued the stubborn since spoiled brats were in diapers.

To be fair, the modern christian wears intentional horse blinders as to the magnificence of Genesis and only wants to hear of the ‘salvation story,’ as if God’s word has nothing to say regarding cosmology and ‘science.’ ‘Scripture is silent’ they say, regarding assumptions that we hold, and I say ‘no,’ scripture is not silent, we just have not looked closely enough.

There is equal majesty as to the truth of the work ethic of the ant as shown in Proverbs, as there is in the fact that Jesus wept, that darkness was upon the face of the deep, as there is in the truth of the wheels within the wheels. Scripture contains ALL that pertains to life and godliness, and we do ourselves a disservice by ignoring the multi-tiered layers of Genesis.

We see the regulation of temperature, the maintenance of the seasons, the importance of water, the impressiveness of light, the sovereignty of man over animals, the biology of male and female, the distinction between man and woman, are all quite impressive as these things under assault today, are laid out in lavender in the monarch of books, Genesis.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth, sets the table regarding space, time, and matter, and proves that it is God, and not man, who knows what science is completely. Consider again that blank paper and that small dot. We are not that smart as we pretend.

Deep things

No prophet here, just a careful bystander of current events, and paying even more attention to scripture and how all things connect via human nature, experience, and recognizing that the Creator has the final say in EVERYTHING, these things occurred to me:

I’m never impressed when men take high altitude plane flights, traversing the skies in bigger planes with more horsepower, also known as rockets, nor do bullet trains impress, neither does underwater sea hunt excursions flatter, except of course, to they who pay to have their name in lights. That’s it right, to have the name written in the Times, an epitaph so to speak, narrowed down to the select few who have dared to challenge height and depth? Why do people jump off a high bridge and pull the cord moments before impact, if not to say: ‘see how close I came to death, and won?’ or, ‘the thrill of it all exceeded the danger, and I’m here to tell you about it?’

There is nothing new in men trying to resurrect Babel, to build bigger and better hotels, to erect cities in the sky, to sink to greater depths in the oceans, to push envelopes where no post office will ever exist, and to dare to near the very living room of God, as if mileage impresses Him.

Space. The final frontier, eh? The stuff of television. I wrote in another place that the great depths of the Seas do not take kindly to strangers, for man was not made to be comfortable in places where he cannot naturally breathe.

But there are waters below, and waters above. Who could argue otherwise? Once more, scripture has the drop on the artificial science of the times. That intense pressure below, where whales are too smart to go no further, yet, men pretend to be smarter than whales, in the very place where whales are the professionals. What could possibly go wrong?

Now go upward. ALL that water above our heads, all that atmospheric pressure, all the vapor which distorts time and distance. Thank God it doesn’t rain in solid sheets! Now there’s a miracle I tell you, water sectioned into drops.

But we ignore the miraculous and call it casual, the same way we pretend to know what lies in the great deep. Where oh where Mr. and Mrs. Evolutionist or Ms. Atheist does all this water come from? Miles and miles of Deep waters across the world and beneath. Immeasurable. Thank God for Genesis else we would be more lost than London fog. And are not the broken clouds of the canopy in agreement that the waters were once both above and below, just as it was, and equally as it appears?

So why bother to concentrate on the obvious? Because people are blind to the truly miraculous and dust it away as nothing. Science (so-called) which neither has a brain nor has ever written a book, has long been the god of the ages. Am I sure? Ha, more firm than concrete.

Speaking of obvious. ‘Science’ demands we worship the ‘spinning ball’ we call earth to be part of the truly advanced intellectual Group. Atheists quickly jump on board, and for some reason, everybody else. People luuv to associate with sports heroes, the Hollywood set, or science ‘experts’ to feel ‘special’ themselves. The ‘Global’ warming Group welcomes you to the elite club. You are exclusive to be so smart. Congratulations.

But to the godless, earth NEEDS to be irrelevant, an accident, of no more significance than Jupiter or Saturn, just another brick in the wall. Follow the crumbs further. If earth has no greater ‘purpose’ than the orbs above, then man is also insignificant, with NO purpose, for purpose requires, no, demands, planning, direction, and aforethought, and by extension, man has no more purpose than a housefly who can swat his neighbor for sneezing.

So the thought of water must lead upward to He who quenches thirst, and who gives every man this natural thirst to know Him. This is why there are 10,000 religions, and all kinds of ‘science,’ not because man is superstitious, but because the intelligence of man is higher than a mouse, and men want to KNOW.

So ask yourself today, why am I so happy to promote the science of the godless? I understand the infatuation with Neil and Nye by evos and atheists, I do not however know why joe christian is equally comfortable with such unproven, assumed, and irrelevant godless science.

My five fav words

Sure, I appreciate eloquence in its proper setting, words befitting of various emoluments, endowed with glistening tones, which appeal to the ear as well as heart, when in season, are rare jewels of stentorian delight, words that separate the thoughtless from the studious, words called upon to paint an image which no sepia can ever do, yet……

There are times when the simplest of speech is far deeper than Mr. Webster could ever take us, and if we paid attention, we would glean insight into the mind of He who created the alphabet, and learn of His delicate ways to get our attention, that we may then be prepared for far greater things.

A kindergarten teacher does not utilize what he or she may unfold to adults. No, first the small things, easy to grasp, like pronunciation, diction, ka at, ca, caatt. Catt. Say the ‘t.’ Cat. But to the same kid years later, he will be then prepared to understand and say ‘concatenation.’ Totally irrelevant or inappropriate to the 5 year old who can’t spell ‘one.’ So what’s the point? Basics.

As adults, we tend to forget the basics upon which all things are built. Which brings me to Genesis.

If God’s word was not inspired, there would be a much longer, a rather drawn out description, there would be prolixity to the nines trying to describe what God said in 5 easy words, yet deeper than any so called science peer reviewed paper could fathom or understand.

Not 5 words in Revelation, as symbolism is unnecessary, nor is this a university level thesis. This is basics, with language easy to entreat which everyone can understand. This is not a dream needing Daniel. We need no teacher.

So this Bud’s for you, Kraus and Nye, Harris and Tyson, Hitchens and all others who preach the gospel of accidental serendipity, and oh by the way:

He made the stars also.

So you think you are clever?

Men ask questions pretending to be smarter than God, and think they are wise in setting a ‘trap,’ but ignore questions that prove our ignorance, then claim God somehow is ineffective or powerless, and in the process, tighten the noose around their own pride, which guarantees their self-induced snares of mental disadvantages. Need an example? Sure, tkx for asking.

‘Gird up now thy loins like a man; for I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.

Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.

 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

Note the DEMAND ordered by God to we the people. Observe the request for an ANSWER. Search your mind and heart and consider WHERE were you when earth was created? Were you invited to the board room to approve the blueprints? Was your opinion sought after? Did you cast a vote? Did you consult your science books for answers lest you be embarrassed?

Do you UNDERSTAND these monumental questions? WHO laid the foundations? Where are these foundations and what are they made of? What size? How long? How high? Impervious to heat? Cold? Earthquakes? Water pressure? Go ahead, answer the Creator with your ‘science’ guesses.

But note, God’s questions give opportunity to be wise, and ‘do not answer……………’

WHO laid the measures of the earth? Go ahead, answer if you know. Or, take the ‘easier’ question: that perpetual horizon ‘line,’ which looks like the carpenter’s snap line which is utilized in any quality project where accuracy is demanded, WHO stretched that line?

But no, men choose to not only ignore such questions, but assume such questions are stupid. Science! say they, is the answer to all issues of life. Science! alone explains the DEMANDS asked by God which in fact should put men in their proper place of intellectual inferiority and necessity, the place where honesty DEMANDS we know so little if not anything at all.

The whole point of God’s questions are to prove HE ALONE has all trademarks and HE ALONE holds the title deed to the earth. His questions benefit us is ways no university textbook can.

If you have UNDERSTANDING, answer.

If you KNOW, answer. But……..

Dare you mock God’s DEMAND for the correct answers? It’s a great opportunity to see how unlearned we really are, how foolish man is to pretend we know more than Him. These questions, thousands of years old, are just as relevant as when asked to Job. Why? If we took to heart the ramifications intended, God’s word would prevent us from the sheer imbecility of boys in girls bathrooms, of people shooting their neighbors, and of thieves wanting to be professional politicians’.

EVERTHING is connected to God’s questions. So no, we are not clever. But yes, God’s questions are always very good.

Babel & the ‘unscheduled disassembly…’

Don’t know about you, but I am sick of hearing about/looking at Elon Musk. In your face daily as if he is somehow more relevant than bread.

Photo by SpaceX on Pexels.com

Did you happen to notice the latest spaceX launch and the subsequent ‘eXcitement over a blown up rocket? Truly it was pathetic to watch the people at ‘mission control’ staring at their monitors with elation and hysteria as they watched live the ‘rapid unscheduled disassembly’ (the sudden explosion and carnage) of the rocket.

You heard it. The voice of mission said ‘rapid unscheduled disassembly.’ What moron talks like this? It was an explosion you idiot. Talk about propaganda. In your face stupidity at the highest level. This is why I despise, no, LOATHE space crap. Then we have Nasa with a 67ish million dollar a day budget for what? To inspire the private cartoons like Bugs Bunny and the ACME tnt company?

This rocket was what 3 billion $, and people jumped for joy? Oh that’s right, job security. Do it again. ‘Learned alot’ said Musk as he prepared for another ‘test’ in a few months. ‘It was destined to fail, we knew that.’ Get ready. Trip around the moon, then to Mars. Blah blah blah. Not impressed.

Then there is always the damage on the ground that the eccentric zillionaire is clueless about, or simply doesn’t care. Broken windows/ cement chunks strewn about/ endangered birds in this part of TX have been affected by blast debris/ a minivan was destroyed/ not even to mention the real danger of elderly people going into cardiac arrest because of the unbearable blast sounds and a real threat to poor hearts.

By the way, the male/female team who broadcasts live these spaceX events are truly nauseating to the ears, to hear such worship of ‘space stuff’ that provides zero value except for a paycheck to employees. Sorry for such bluntness, but providing entertainment by way of high-altitude planes circling earth can be had for a few pennies at amusement parks.

So tell me if you disagree. What value or service, what benefit is there for supporting scrap metal falling from the sky, for supporting loud decibels which would alarm the deaf, for supporting tossed concrete, for damaged automobiles, for being a real threat to wildlife, for scaring the daylights out of the aged or infirmed, and for even thinking for a second that man has a right-at all, to erect the tower of Babel once more?

‘The rapid unscheduled disassembly.’ Ha! Such blatant lying is not worthy of serious academics. We have ruined the earth, but now we will ascend into the heavens! Yeah, good luck with that.

Just some rain water?

Do you like that word? Rain. Say it a few times. Has a nice ring to it. What man is responsible for ‘inventing’ it? Water droplets from above, let’s call it ‘rain.’ Everybody agrees right, there’s no better word to describe wet sprinkling from on high. Ha!

Photo by Viktorya Sergeeva ud83eudec2 on Pexels.com

But wonderful how it drops eh? How it greens the ground, providing moisture that things may grow, water to refresh the heart of man. I’m reminded though of the Gardener’s initial care for the young sprouts back in the day, when the earth was misted from the ground up, not from the top down, just like a careful hand would tend to new life in the greenhouse.

Only a fool would admit there are not ‘waters above,’ precisely as the good book describes, and just as any thinking person would easily see. Yet the Caretaker does not drop this water like an ocean from the sky all at once, as it would kill us in an instant, but showers these drops of blessing, one at a time, even in torrents, yet still we can see or take shelter when the need arises.

‘He causes it to rain on the just and the unjust.’ Which camp are you in that so benefits from rain but never says thanks? ‘Neither were they thankful and their foolish hearts were darkened,’ so says the Book of books.

Then there are the streams, the rivers, the lakes, the falls, the oceans. Has any man weighed the amount of water, the pressure, the depth, the lakes under the oceans, the ice walls, all the waters of the world apart from the earth? No. No man can in fact measure with certainty. They may guess, as they guess how oceans appeared from an alleged cosmic bang. Love that word: alleged.

But rain. Rain. Rain. Surely you have seen cities go underwater with only a days rain. So who can possibly gripe when once in the longsuffering of God in the days of Noah, it rained 40 days and 40 nights….Put on the thinking cap ye of little reasoning power. Yeah, it happened all right.

Take courage though, as the Maker of rain said He would not renew the earth in such a manner again. We have His word on it, but every time it rains, in many hearts it is never commonplace or taken for granted. There is nothing like a rainy day that looks dismal, only to morph into sunshine, blue sky, maybe the rainbow, and yet another opportunity for someone on earth to thank God for His perpetual goodness.

A little discomfort?

In a recent discussion, a little word invariably popped up, an uncomfortable word to be sure, a word never heard in board rooms, hospitals, sports arenas, dinner parties, Wall St, and in most cases, a word shunned or ignored in polite society. That three-letter word is Sin.

Saying it does not exist does not make it non-existent. Saying you do not believe it does not make it unbelievable. But saying you have never ‘sinned’ does make you a liar. Ah yes, that little white lie that so encroaches humans. The nightly news report is simply a broadcast of sin if you will.

Shootings. Why? Thefts, corporate or personal. Why? People beat to a pulp in broad daylight. Why?Males in female rest rooms. Why? High speed auto crashes. Why? Politicians hiding their nefarious crafts. Why? The burning of police cars. Why? The killing of pets. Why? The rape of neighbors. Why?

Shall I add a thousand more daily examples that prove this little word is real and personal? Shall I prove further the results of a bad germ grown to a heinous beast? Shall I prove the utter stupidity of people who say ‘sin is made-up,’ or does not exist, if only in the minds of the religious deluded?

Take your bias to the scrapyard, and reason apart from the bane that you call religion. I have said on multiple occasions that ‘pure religion’ is the best of all, where no rational mind would dare challenge.

Not man-made religion, but ‘pure religion,’ that is, to ‘visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.’ No small task here, but a notable pursuit. And here we see the gem of perfection that proves ‘sin’ is real and true.

Stealing penny candy is not only inappropriate, and you may think it is cute, but it falls short of perfection, it is sin. Sin does not need a teacher. But it does have many friends and faces. Courts are a place where sin is adjudicated. Fact. Yet, our little word is not welcome, but it would explain and set right a whole host of misdeeds.

Fortunately, and much to the chagrin of the Pride contingency, there is One who does not tally our defects like an employer looking for reasons to fire, nope, He is a good Boss, one with no guile. But it is a good idea not to sass or backtalk to the One who owns the cattle on a thousand hills, and all the air and water we so daily enjoy.

The lesson of ‘he that is without sin, let him cast the first stone,’ is so rich with practical insight, that we should be so embarrassed to argue otherwise. So saying ‘there is no such thing as sin,’ makes such a person not only blind to common sense, but dense to reality, ie, the daily news.

And by the way, I purposefully left out what is ‘good,’ as this is a separate thing, for One asked: ‘why callest thou me good?’ Two wonderful truths. ‘There are none good, no not any.’ ‘Zacharias was a good man.’ Deal with the ‘sin’ word, and you may get insight with the good thing.

So watch the daily news, and you just may rethink your views on that monarch of books which is above all others.

Consider the lowly bulb

Why do people blow a gasket when shown abundant proof by way of evidence that it is quite easy to believe that nature itself preaches the resurrection of things once dead? They say you are crazy and part of some lunatic conspiracy group for being so stupid. Really now? Let’s see who is dunce-like shall we.

‘Science’ so-called is forever made mute by the flower bulb. It cannot explain, defend, or deny this rather miracle of nature. Put in the ground. Buried. Forgotten. Trampled upon. Lifeless through frigid weather. But in three days. Oops, I mean a year later, comes this glorious flower, with a life so unlike what was put in the ground.

And what do we do? We say nothing as to this spectacular appearance. We ignore what many assume as ‘evolution doing its thing.’ Yeah ok, good luck with that.

So to those of you who appreciate nature and the finer things in life, God bless you as you ponder the lessons of Lazarus and One much greater than Solomon and all bulbs and lilies. And to the rest, God bless you too, as He does so daily in spite of yourself.

Snow. The great truth teller.

Pick a town, any town that just received a deluge of snow. 5′ now on the ground.

Can you possibly conceive the sheer weight of that snow, NOW on the GROUND, that just yesterday was above your head?

Can you imagine that snow dropping in an instant, smothering everyone and everything? But no, it falls in flakes, piling up that we may see the weight and magnitude of the glory of God.

Snow tells the truth. The Creator unfolds His person, but we refuse to open that envelope of gifts, and revel in the stillness of that white, that magnificence so obvious, that immediately dismisses evolution and godlessness.

And in return what do we say? ‘It’s a hassle. It’s cold. Can’t go to the mall. Can’t go to school. It’s ugly.’

Ugly??? How depraved a mind must be to see ugliness in that engineered marvel of white weight falling from above, that orderly avalanche of feathery drops that does NOT crush us, but piles up and points to – the sheer awesomeness of Almighty God.

A blizzard or feet of snow to contend with. Inconvenient? Sometimes. Difficult to deal with? Maybe. But ugly? Hmmm.

The blanket of white across a country that quiets the earth is a sight to behold, and further testifies that as long as the earth remains, there will be cold and heat. Tell the truth today.

So few are religious

Good word bad word there. In the hands of the unlearned it is usually revolting, but in the hands of the mature, it is actually a fine word crossing many disciplines of life. Some may be surprised to know that the word ‘religion/religious’ is used twice in scripture. 2x.. That’s it. In a world where the bible is assaulted daily for being a ‘religious’ book, one would be hard-pressed to defend this myopic viewpoint having such glaring omissions.

The word religion simply means an ardent zeal. Dogs can be religious by their daily ‘devotion’ waiting at their master’s feet. Bees can be religious by their unequalled defense of the queen. Gardeners can be religious in their devotion to dirt. Religion is a repeatable, observable, measurable, and intentional manner of living.

Religion in the dictionary is: ‘pursuit or interest to which someone ascribes supreme importance.’

Sounds rather quaint since the bible agrees: ‘pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction………………and to keep himself unspotted from the world.’ Kind of important to visit the fatherless and widows eh? More important than the worship of rocks, trees, sports, science, games, tic tocs, you get the point?

The detour that ‘religion’ took over centuries insofar as ‘worship’ alone has led to miserable conclusions about God and scripture. Want proof? Tkx for asking.

WHERE is ‘religion’ referred to in the 1st of Genesis? Space, time, and matter, are ALL put forth in 1.1, yet where is the religion? Where is the religion alluded to in the creation of LIGHT, birds, whales, plants, seas, stars, or the sun and moon? Where is the religion in man’s naming of the animals? Where oh where is religion described in the making of grass, fruit, or the most basic WATER?

Where and why dear skeptic/ and believer friends, has Genesis and the beginning of all things, been so abased to the world of irrelevance? Must I say it for the thousandth time: there is more true science in scripture than in the universities of the world. Key word thee: TRUE. Am I sure? Uh, yeah, as I agree with the only true WORDSMITH who warned us of such things:

keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called.’

KEEP (what is true at the expense of pressure) AVOID (the lying pharma scientists) BABBLINGS (of astrophysicists, comedians, atheists, forked tongue wannabe christians, politicians) OPPOSITIONS OF SCIENCE FALESLY SO CALLED. (pick six) Could have been written this morning in a world where the infidel colleges dictate the meaning of words and science, as if God is clueless. Yeah, good luck with that.

I so tire of that word ‘science’ which leaves God out of the cool kids club. I loathe how ‘religion’ is somehow responsible for man’s inhumanity to man. And I am more embarrassed that how little I am religious.
