PROOF! LIBERAL SECULAR HUMANISM IS A RELIGION

Exclusive: Joseph Farah notes worldview has 'its own apocalyptic end-times scenarios'

Take God out of the universe and you leave a black-hole moral vacuum that will suck in a replacement for meaning in human lives.

That’s what is accomplished by liberal secular humanism – now the official state religion of the USA, the one preached in your schools, universities, the media, the popular culture, the major science foundations and by many governments.

It even invents its own apocalyptic end-times scenarios – like man-made catastrophic “climate change,” overpopulation scenarios, global famines, the wholesale destruction of species, pandemic diseases and acidification of the oceans.

Of course, there’s only one way out of these imaginary death spirals – turn all power over to them.

I thought about this recently as I read the latest hysterical screed in Salon magazine titled, “It’s the end of the world and we know it: Scientists in many disciplines see apocalypse, soon.”

“While apocalyptic beliefs about the end of the world have, historically, been the subject of religious speculation, they are increasingly common among some of the leading scientists today,” began the sermon. “This is a worrisome fact, given that science is based not on faith and private revelation, but on observation and empirical evidence.”

You see, this is end-of-the-world stuff you should take seriously because it’s real. There’s empirical evidence behind it. 

The high priests of science all agree, they say. But this is religious mumbo-jumbo.

The pope of this cult is Stephen Hawking, who wrote last year: 

“Now, more than at any time in our history, our species needs to work together. We face awesome environmental challenges: climate change, food production, overpopulation, the decimation of other species, epidemic disease, acidification of the oceans. Together, they are a reminder that we are at the most dangerous moment in the development of humanity. We now have the technology to destroy the planet on which we live, but have not yet developed the ability to escape it.”

In case you questioned Hawking’s sweeping, hyperbolic conclusions, Salon’s writer was there to dispel any doubts:

“There is not a single point here that is inaccurate or hyperbolic,” he wrote:

• For example, consider that the hottest 17 years on record have all occurred since 2000, with a single exception (namely, 1998), and with 2016 being the hottest ever. (False)
• Although 2017 probably won’t break last year’s record, the U.K.’s Met Office projects that it “will still rank among the hottest years on record.” (False)
• Studies also emphasize that there is a rapidly closing window for meaningful action on climate change. (False)

Then the humanist version of holy writ was cited – the “infallible” peer-reviewed study:

“The next few decades offer a brief window of opportunity to minimize large-scale and potentially catastrophic climate change that will extend longer than the entire history of human civilization thus far,” it offered. “Policy decisions made during this window are likely to result in changes to Earth’s climate system measured in millennia rather than human lifespans, with associated socioeconomic and ecological impacts that will exacerbate the risks and damages to society and ecosystems that are projected for the 21st century and propagate into the future for many thousands of years.”

If it’s not one thing, it’s another. Global crises and hysteria represent the mother’s milk of secular humanist apocalypticism.

To measure the irrationality of such predictions, consider this one from the late microbiologist Frank Fenner, who, according to the Salon article, predicted in 2010 that “humans will probably be extinct within 100 years, because of over-population, environmental and climate change.”

Extinction through over-population? Think about that. It reminds me of the old Yogi Berra line: “Nobody goes to that joint anymore, it’s too crowded.”

How much blind faith does it require to believe such nonsense?

A lot more than it takes to believe there is a Creator God who loves us and is more concerned about obedience to His rules of order than the fine balance He created between life-giving oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in our atmosphere.

Get your heads out of the silly, tyrannical fantasies of the “progressive,” liberal, socialist secular humanist schemes, and read the love letters God left all of humanity so we could understand His ways – the Bible. And ask the Holy Spirit to give you insight and wisdom and discernment.

My comments: It is clear to me that Satan, the Ruler of this Fallen World (1 John 5:19) is preparing the Whole World to receive his son, the Beast of Revelation, the Antichrist, and they will worship him and receive his "mark." (Revelation 13)
