The motivation for his discussions, I feel, stem from a love of humanity, not the will for it's end; how are people still able to defend the whole of humanity's collective actions? Oh, and on the behalf of whom? How many people can we seriously consider as being sustainable for this increasingly fragile planet? Is it possible for us to have a discussion whereby we can argue reasonably rather than against suspected conspirital conjectures? Why does it seem one "side" is more inclined to do so? Can we not move toward parenting licenses? Then let us end with internet licenses, that we may end the ever-ending horseshit that people CHOOSE to utilise in lieu of their minds? Christians unite! I have met many who call a rainbow a rainbow, but know WHY we see it. Painka has not advocated the near genocide of human life.

And welcome to anyone who found my site through her column. Here's hoping you'll stay a while. In the interests of fairness, I should add that some creationists have come to realize they were led astray by Mims. <a href="http://telicthoughts.com/?p=633" rel="nofollow">Telic Thoughts</a>, for example, posted a retraction in a very honest and forthright manner. (Others have set a poorer example, such as <a href="http://www.uncommondescent.com/index.php/archives/1015" rel="nofollow">Uncommon Descent</a>, which has not only not retracted its accusations against Pianka, but has expanded its attack to include Telic Thoughts as well because of the retraction.)

I have produced verifiable proof that the original pre-Christian Apocalypse (Book of Revelation) was a symbolically encrypted wisdom text that was stolen and modified by the founders of Christianity. I demonstrate a series of specific and undeniable proofs of verifiable fraud in the Christianized Book of Revelation, which also appear throughout the New Testament. Furthermore, I have produced stunning and comprehensive proof that the ancient symbology used to construct sealed Hebrew texts is an ancient philosophical technology. The ancient symbolism used in The Apocalypse and other Hebrew prophecies and wisdom texts predates Christianity, Judaism, modern secret societies, and mystery schools by thousands of years. While in the hands of Christianity, The Apocalypse and its symbology have been purposely misinterpreted, recast, and misrepresented. The original Hebrew document was a multi-purpose narrative constructed using layered and synchronized ancient wisdom symbolism. Its true purposes, features, and functionality are detailed in my book, further demonstrating that it was a symbolically encrypted Hebrew wisdom text encoding prophecy, philosophy, and scientific wisdom that was stolen and fraudulently modified by the founders of Christianity. If your goal is to seek the truth and present verifiable evidence of religious fraud, then read my book and direct Christians to read it also. Challenge them to prove me wrong. The E-Book is a free download and I make no money from it or the paperback. <i>Not only do I talk the talk, I walk the walk.</i> Verifiable proof that "Armageddon" has begun

One is human morality and the other is God morality. God morality is defined as good no matter what happens. So if man has an affair and a child from that affair, we would consider it evil for another person to kill that child because of the affair. But if God does it, it is good. This double view of morality worries me more than people looking for the rapture. After all, if God commits the Rapture and kills/tortures everyone else, then it is just another good thing He does.

See: <a href="http://www.uncommondescent.com/index.php/archives/984" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow">http://www.uncommondescent.com/index.php/archives/984</a>. I wouldn't go so far as to call Dembski an "academic", though - "seminarian" would seem to be a better title, since that seems to be where he spends most of his time nowadays.

If so I think I will have lost absolutely all respect for him as an academic. Between this and the whole Dennett/Ruse email thing, I'm simply unwilling to listen to a thing they say anymore.
