Not From God but From Man
Published on March 4, 2008 By KFC Kickin For Christ In History

Many know and recognize Charles Dawin's book, "Origin of Species" written in 1859 that brought the whole Evolutionary Science to the forefront.  But how many know the real title of the book?  Do you recognize this? 

 On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life,

How many know this?  This was the original title.  How many know that Darwin was not only a Racist but also believed women were inferior to men?  It blows my mind that people follow this man and his writings without even knowing anything about the man who started it all.   How many know that Hitler and his Nazi's took Darwin's beliefs to heart and therefore had much to do with what we know today as the Holocaust? 

If I were to ask you how many races are there, how many would you say?  20?  30?  50? Hundreds? 

From a  biblical POV there is only one race; the human race. Race is an evolutionized term.  It's too bad the churches didn't realize this.  Some do, many still do not.  Many churches today still have on their books a law against interracial marriages.  Why?  It's not coming from scripture.  Scripture doesn't recognize races.  Tribes?  Yes.  Nations?  Yes.  There is no forbidden different races to marry.  Moses married a black woman.   Rhab and Ruth, both in the geneology of Christ were from different races  marrying into the Jewish Faith yet they were two of only four women mentioned in the gospel lineage of Christ. 

Our speaker at the AIG conference said he was recently denied to speak at a church because he had been married for 25 years to a Japanese woman.  Happily married to one woman but since she was  Japanese the by-laws of this particular church forbid it or the Pastor would be asked to leave the church.   Sad.

If we would only learn to look at people groups thru the lens of God's word and not thru the lens of man's opinions.  How much nicer this world would be. 

If there is no Jesus, then there is no equality.  If there is Jesus then there is equality because Jesus is the Creator and we are all created equal.  But even the Christians did err for not knowing the scriptures.  In a Southern Baptist Church in 1856 a half breed was not allowed to be buried in a church cemetary.  They were a pretty racist group all in themselves.  Darwin just helped them along.  Many don't realize that it was the Christians who rode in under Darwin's coattails while the Scientists stood back not supporting him hardly at all.  In fact some loudly protested his findings.  It wasn't until after the 1930's when the new younger Scientists came along that his theory was accepted in large by the Scientific community. 

So many stories on racism thru the years.  How many know or have read about Africans put on display in Zoos?  Have you ever read about the world's fair in St. Louis in 1904 when a black pygmy boy was put on display?  Happend all the time.  I recently read a story about this also in NY in 1906. 

From an evolutionist POV this belief of superiority is hardwired into our brain.  The Boston Globe reporting about Bosnia and Bio-Politics said that the cause of the bloodbath over there "lies in our genes."  They said it's genetic.  It couldn't be sin could it?  

In England I remember a story about this Musem holding bones of the blacks keeping them for Science.  When they were requested for burial they refused.  Blacks were not treated as human by many. 

How about sterilization?  Ever hear of that?  How many know that in the United States alone over 64,000 people were sterilized right up until the 1970's?   Many might remember Hitler ordering this forced sterilization to over 400,000 people but not many know the United States  was behind such a horrid program.

 This was all done in the name of Eugenics or the support of improving the human race by sterilizing those who maybe were non-white, sick with disease, had epilepsy or were feeble minded.  How did one know if someone was feeble minded or not?  Ever hear of the SAT test?  Yep, used for measuring intelligence.  How scary is that?   Ever hear of the bell curve linking intelligence with race?  

Forced sterilization was done also in the prison system.  I heard Indiana started this in the prison system 100 years ago by sterilizing some of the inmates.  From 1924-79 Virginia sterilized 8,000 people alone.

In 1967 there was a law against interracial marriage in 16 states until 1967 in a Supreme Court case Loving vs. Virginia.  http://www.diversityinc.com/public/1982.cfm  Many, my age or older can probably remember these days quite well. 

So how could we, as a Christian Nation pass these laws?  Where is the equality the scriptures preach about?  Why aren't we listening? What happened?  From what I can ascertain even the churches were consistent with the world view turning away from the biblical world view.  They were viewing man's opinion as higher than God's opinion. 

What does the bible say about the feeble minded?  We sterilized them.  Germany executed them but yet scripture says we are to comfort them. 

The bible says it's not the externals that matter.  It's all about internals.  It's not about skin color. Large earlobes, large noses or slanted eyes are the same as skin color.  These are genetic traits and should not be used to make one inferior to another.

Will we ever learn?

Evolution has no moral code in it because well, IT'S NOT A PHILOSOPHY OR A RELIGION BUT MERELY A SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION FOR THE ORIGIN OF ALL ORGANISMS.


Evolution Theory that allows only nature and natural causes to explain the origin of the Universe, all that's in it and where we came from has moved from just a scientific theory to a world view, an ideology, a philosophy. Evolution as fact propaganda has been flooding the world through the media and our educational systems.

Good people can debate all day whether the philosophy of ET is right or wrong, but what is not debatable is that it is successful and its influence as a world view has extended into politics, sociology religion and other fields that touch on the subject of existence. And this is where the rub is for the triumpth of the philosophy of Evolution is getting rid of God, undermining the HOly Bible, and changing man's concept of man from Adam to brute man. That's why above I wrote If Evolution is true then everything in the world is explained without God.

I still don't see why you consider man a brute, ruthless creature without God. I can dig up some proof that man is a brute IN THE NAME OF GOD. Heretic and witch burnings, inquisition, crusades, the rape of Native American culture, gay bashing...the list can go on.


I, for one, think it's the people involved...they'll believe what they want and hang on to anything that sounds like a good reason to back up their views warping them along the way.

Be it religion, philosophy, or even science...people will find or make their own justification for something and cause untold amounts of damage with their ideas.

Christianity wasn't meant to cause death and misery was it? I'd assume not. Same with evolution. Ideas and theories are just that...ideas and theories. The motivation for wrongdoing comes from within...then it does not matter what is written or what is spoken, for hate and violence do not really care and they will find their own means of rationalization.

I'm sorry too Zoo, that it has gotten to the point it has...but like it or not, believe it or not, Evolution Theory has long left the scientific field and method and become an ideology, a type of dogmatic false religion.

No, not in the name of the One True God. Zoo, all this is called one word....sin...man, for power, lust, greed, pride, superiority, etc. committing sin against his fellow man. It entered the world when our first parents sinned against God.

No, Christianity per se hasn't caused death and misery...rather, sinful people who claim they are Christian caused misery and death. There is a difference.

Further, your example about Evolution. It's based upon natural selection and survival of the fittest as its mechanism. Survival of the fittest is all about death.

If that's the way it is, then I'm an evolutionary fundamentalist.  I take it for what it's worth, no more and no less. To me it's not a way of life, merely an explanation of a certain aspect of the world.

Of course you could go to the philosophy...but philosophy is really variable and crazy as a study anyway.  Anything can be philosophy...it's just about thinking a certain way.

Really?  Not in the name of God?  There's a lot of examples of horrible things and Christianity is right up there in the front.  Sin or not, it was motivated with religion.  From one psycho and spread to all the others with a religious premise. 

"This guy says God hates those people, it must be true!"

Actually it's all about life.  Who can survive and most importantly reproduce.  It is all about propagation.  More and more and more offspring.  That outweighs the death by a lot.

Ha, my kids are watching animal planet and just as I'm writing this, at the moment an antelope was reaching into a mudhole for water to drink and a gigantic crocodile jumped out and grabbed its throat the announcer said, "survival of the fittest". Death for one and life for the other....

From what I read in the bible it seems that women also go to heaven. Even after the whole original sin debacle.Is this true?

Yes, Kurthy, you are correct.  God is a forgiving God.

Yes, much evil was done in the name of religion....and your point?

Or live for several...could have a nest or belly full of eggs to feed.

However, predator/prey interactions aren't really "survival of the fittest" in themselves...you have to focus on one particular species and their efficiency at avoiding predation or being a successful predator.

My point was that it doesn't make the idea of religion evil because evil people use it for their own ends. Evolution is also not considered evil because of the actions and beliefs of evil people using it for their own evil agenda.

I used the word 'evil' way too many times...

It was nice of you to answer him, but he was just trying to bait you.

He's a troll supreme. I'd BL him if I were you.

Thanks for the advice SC...but I have had no contact (other than here this one time) with Kurthy  so not sure why I should BL.  I hate to BL anyone unless they get really, really nasty or vulgar and I've only done this one so far.....sorry to say. 

At this point he/she asked a question and I answered.  No harm in that is there?  But I'll keep what you say in mind for future use.

Doesn't look like you'll have to worry about it, because I can't find a single comment from him.

Maybe he ticked off Brad enough he banned 'im. Huh . . .

What did he do?  I only read him on Tova's blog....was he really that bad?

He was being really, really antagonistic on cross-posts from Galciv.com and wincustomize.

It's one thing to be a jerk on JU posts. It's another thing entirely to be a jerk on posts on sites where people are looking for help with a product they've actually paid for. He was calling people names, being crude and unfriendly, and just generally being the hindparts of a donkey to actual Stardock customers (besides us faithful valiant Stardock customers who post on all three sites ) so I totally get why Brad banned him.

I would have done the same once he started ticking off paying customers.

ok gotcha! 

It helps when you know the "rest of the story."

I would link you to the replies, but they got eaten by Brad's new 'I push a button and EVERYTHING YOU'VE EVER SAID ON THIS SITE IS GONE' button.

Did you ever figure out that 'private messages' thing? If not, go check your homeschooling article and hopefully it'll help you out.
