Countering Fred Flintstone with science

Children as young as five should be taught about evolution to prevent pupils mistaking Barney the Dinosaur and Fred Flintstone for scientific fact, an academic has claimed.

The failure to teach primary school children scientific truth is playing into the hands of advocates of creationism - the belief that God created the world in six days, according to James Williams, lecturer in education at Sussex University.

He warned that creationists go to great lengths to influence primary children with comics, magazines and videos that mix scientific misconceptions with proper science.

Making a monkey out of Darwin

 

"Although born to a Catholic family, Hitler become a hard-eyed Darwinist who saw life as a constant struggle between the strong and the weak. His Darwinism was so extreme that he thought it would have been better for the world if the Muslims had won the eighth century battle of Tours, which stopped the Arabs' advance into France. Had the Christians lost, (Hitler) reasoned, Germanic people would have acquired a more warlike creed and, because of their natural superiority, would have become the leaders of an Islamic empire."

"You have no notion of the intrigue that goes on in this blessed world of science," wrote Thomas Huxley. "Science is, I fear, no purer than any other region of human activity; though it should be."

As "Darwin's bulldog," Huxley would himself engage in intrigue, deceit and intellectual property theft to make his master's theory gospel truth in Great Britain.

He is quoted above for two reasons.

First is House passage of a "cap and trade" climate-change bill. Depending on which scientists you believe, the dire consequences of global warming are inconvenient truths – or a fear-mongering scheme to siphon off the wealth of individuals and empower bureaucrats.

The second is publication of "The End of Darwinism: And How a Flawed and Disastrous Theory Was Stolen and Sold," by Eugene G. Windchy, a splendid little book that begins with Huxley's lament.

The theory that fooled the world – read "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Darwinism and Intelligent Design"

That Darwinism has proven "disastrous theory" is indisputable.

"Karl Marx loved Darwinism," writes Windchy. "To him, survival of the fittest as the source of progress justified violence in bringing about social and political change, in other words, the revolution."

"Darwin suits my purpose," Marx wrote.

Darwin suited Adolf Hitler's purposes, too.

"Although born to a Catholic family, Hitler become a hard-eyed Darwinist who saw life as a constant struggle between the strong and the weak. His Darwinism was so extreme that he thought it would have been better for the world if the Muslims had won the eighth century battle of Tours, which stopped the Arabs' advance into France. Had the Christians lost, (Hitler) reasoned, Germanic people would have acquired a more warlike creed and, because of their natural superiority, would have become the leaders of an Islamic empire."

Charles Darwin also suited the purpose of the eugenicists and Herbert Spencer, who preached a survival-of-the-fittest social Darwinism to robber baron industrialists exploiting 19th-century immigrants.

Hitler and Darwin still give you the finger


Hitler and Darwin still give you the finger
Hitler's links to Darwinism At Hitler’s death in May of 1945, the point was clear enough to the editorial writers of the New York Times. “Long before he had dreamed of achieving power,” they wrote, [Hitler] had developed the principles that nations were destined to hate, oppose and destroy one another; [and] that the law of history was the struggle for survival between peoples … ”.  
Where, one might ask, had Hitler heard those ideas before?

Deciphering spin, with spin of our own

We can't support a McCain-Romney ticket  "With Mitt Romney on the ticket there could very well be enough social conservatives staying at home to allow a Barack Obama victory in the fall," said a statement from sponsor Government is Not God-PAC, run by William Murray. Readers are being directed to a NoMittVP website, where they can express their opinions about Romney as a possible vice president.
 

Savior? 
Pied piper of 'change' This kind of legerdemain, this "slick Willy" approach to political ascendancy, has already camouflaged Barack Obama's I.D. as the single most liberal-voting U.S. senator, even to the left of Hillary Clinton. He's piping a very persuasive, hypnotizing tune. He's lining up millions of our young, who find him magnetic and enchanting. We'd better demand to know more about where such a pied piper would lead us – before our kids, and our nation, vanish into the river.

 It has been made clear on her program that the name "God" does not necessarily have to be capitalized. Any "god" will do.
Oprah shows her true colors - again 
The truth is this. Oprah and the unhinged, activist lawmakers that embrace her worldview, threaten the integrity of race. It is an extension of the ignorant assault on true diversity. By erasing any objective standard of distinction, the Harpo’s in our culture create a society where nobody is special or unique. Their efforts to erase boundaries are becoming more successful. They will find an ironic tragedy as their “successes” accumulate. It will not be long before a white person declares that he is black simply because he says so. If a business owner cannot, by law, question the veracity of an obviously male patron who says he is a woman, there is no reason to think that a “transracial” person would not be required to be similarly embraced. How ya’ like me now?”

"They are training for war, either for war here in this country or against our troops"
Main street parade to honor Muhammad  "We see children – small children run around over there when they should be in school," one neighbor said. "We hear bursts of gunfire all of the time, and we know that there is military-like training going on there. Those people are armed and dangerous." The resident said his household gets "nothing but menacing looks from the people who go in and out of the camp, and sometimes they yell at us to mind our own business when we are just driving by."

 Just like the Goracle with Teflon 
Darwin's Kool-Aid drinkers Enter Richard Dawkins. Dawkins, a prominent evolutionist, outspoken atheist and the best-selling author of "The God Delusion," is featured throughout the film. In one segment, he sits down with Stein for a heart-to-heart. After dancing around several pointed questions about how life began, Dawkins finds himself at a logical impasse with no surplus of sci-fi rhetoric. He's finally forced to concede that, indeed, an intelligent being may have created life on earth. However, that being could not have been "God," but rather, it must have been some organic, alien life form. Of course, that alien life form has to have been a product of "Darwinian evolution."
  

 

The Paradigm Shift One meaning of paradigm in my Webster’s Dictionary says, “an example serving as a model: pattern: a paradigm of virtue” and for virtue it says, “conformity of one’s life and conduct to moral and ethical principles: moral excellence: rectitude.” Today, the transforming of our whole society with “change agents” has frequently been referred to as restructuring or a paradigm shift. This gradual shift has been.......

  
I Think I Saw the Seventh Seal Opened
 Just the other day, I witnessed the final piece of the apocalyptic puzzle – the personal Taser…in designer colors. And, (this is why I know I’m going to be stuck in traffic behind Four guys riding horses), I saw it on a half-hour TV infomercial. You heard me, right there on the glass teat where we get the misinformation that misinforms all our lives. Now, from the comfort of your own home, using the same telephone you use to get the power of steam to clean you kitchen counters, from the same couch where you order the George Foreman Grill so you can ‘knock out the fat’, you can get the latest in personal defense technology: your own Taser in these terrific designer colors: BLACK PEARL, BLUE, METALLIC PINK, TITANIUM SILVER, RED HOT, LEOPARD, FASHION PINK, DESERT CAMO, FOREST CAMO.


    

...scuppers up
Widow sues prostitutes after hubby dies The victim, who had a heart condition and was aged only 38, asked the hookers to come equipped with a special sex toy that stimulates him with electric shocks as a special Christmas treat. The bill for the special treatment, plus three bottles of champagne and some Ecstasy tablets, came to more than £2,000.  
 

 
Pressure on the brain stem...
George W. Bush: The outlaw president Indeed, while failing in many things, George Bush and Dick Cheney have succeeded in restoring the imperial presidency of Richard Nixon. From the beginning, they have operated as if they are above the law. By refusing to reveal the names of oil executives on Cheney's Energy Task Force, tapping phones without a warrant, or authorizing the use of torture, Bush and Cheney have put into practice Nixon's rule: "When the president does it, that means that it's not illegal."


 



Homeschooling IS constitutional  The cat is finally out of the bag. A California appellate court, ruling that parents have no constitutional right to homeschool their children, pinned its decision on this ominous quotation from a 47-year-old case, "A primary purpose of the educational system is to train schoolchildren in good citizenship, patriotism and loyalty to the state and the nation as a means of protecting the public welfare." There you have it; a primary purpose of government schools is to train schoolchildren "in loyalty to the state."
