"We have paid some high prices for the technological conquest of
nature, but none so high as the intellectual and spiritual costs of seeing
nature as mere material for our manipulation, exploitation and
transformation. With the powers of biological engineering gathering, there
will be splendid new opportunities for similar degradation of our view of
man...If we come to see ourselves as meat, then meat we shall become." --Dr.
Leon Kass (biologist, U. of Chicago)

"As an explanation of the world materialism has a sort of insane
simplicity. It has the quality of a madman's arguments; we have at once the
sense of it covering everything and the sense of it leaving everything out."

"....the logic of materialist reductionism implies that science
itself is the product of unreasoning material causes. No wonder the Age of
Reason ends with the Age of Postmodernist Relativism!...if unthinking matter
causes the thoughts the materialists don't like, then what causes the the
thoughts they do like?" --Phillip Johnson

Magik Chemical Atonement...
Give the slip to Judgment Day!
Double Helix
Hallelujahs!
Hey, man, lay those branches down!
O, Hosanna in the highest!
We were lost, but now we're found!

Modern Science has confirmed it!
If you
like it.....Then it's TRUE!
If it helps you, and it
feels good,
Then that means it's true for you!
Old "traditions" now don't matter....
Only
Matter matters now.
Protein sequences control us....
RNA!...Please take a bow!
Bio-Ethical conclusion?
.....Morality just bit the dust!
Now High Priests of Evolution
Can preach the benefits of Lust.....
Nietzsche, Freud and Mr. Darwin
Led this charge through history...
Overturning Temple Tables,
Striking down Morality.
Free will?.....Inconsequential.
We're just programmed chips 'n' bytes.
Meat Machines all seeking power....
Pleasure seekers picking fights.
"Good" and "Evil"?....Just illusion.
Happy Day!
There's nuthin' "wrong"!
So, just make your rules and laws up,
Every day that comes along!

Predisposed to eat that Milk Dud?
Overweight?...Well, that's OK!
Glutt'ny Genes are all encoded...
Just blame your "Fatso DNA".
Shame and Guilt?....My! How
outdated!
Hey! You didn't have a choice!
What you used to call your "Conscience"
.....Was an
imaginary voice.
"Go , Girl!" You may leave your husband!
You, Sir...Go!....Cheat on your wife!
Beat the kids and snort the cocaine...
Dog Eat Dogma's

And that partial birth abortion?
Well,
that tissue's rendered moot.
If you want to, ma'am, just do it!
No one here, Sis,
gives a hoot!
Hey! Don't fight it, man!
....Just dig it!
Or
you'll be a fossil soon....
Then they'll be diggin' YOU up
Like your Pappy, "Blue Baboon".
See, it's all quite pre-determined,
Life's just a "thing", man....
.....Dust to dust!
We're just molecules colliding....
And that's the
truth, sir, you can trust!
Matter's all that really matters,
And this matter's crystal-clear!
What your neighbors think don't matter,
'Cuz really.....
Nuthin' matters here!
"Sacred Virtues"?....They've been "outted".
Aborted by "The Gene Machine".
"Sin's" a concept worth erasing....
Ha-Lay-Loo!....We're comin' clean!
Holy Scrub-a-Dub!... It's Magik!
Watch that Guilt flow down the drain!
Can you feel that Shame-a-Leavin'?
Darwin takes away The Stain!
Theodicy?....All taken care of!
And better yet...We're off the hook!
Happy Hallowed
Hedonistas....
It's high time we flushed "The Book"!
"Guilt's" not in our dictionary,
Niether "Evil", "Shame" nor "Sin".
Macro-Evolution's Theory
Sets us

Chemo-Truth!....The Way to Glory!
Reductionism!....How sublime!
Moral issues simply
Vanish...
When man bows down
To Chance and Time.

Lord, this "Science of Defiance"
Is absolutely nothing new...
Adam practiced it in Eden,
Then.....just like us......
He hid from you.*
We're Determinists determined,
Rebel Clay spun on your wheel...
"Crack Pots" never holding water
Who scream.......
"The Potter isn't Real!"
Lord, that's life here East of Eden....
Mad Crack Pots of Rebel Clay;
Broken vessels always empty,
Who still deny You every day.
*******
Lord, we're grateful for your Mercy,
Grace poured out for all to see...
From cleansing water drawn at Cana,
To blood-red wine at Calvary.
"On the
third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus' mother was there,
and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. When the
wine was gone, Jesus' mother said to him, 'They have no more wine.'
'Dear woman, why do you involve me?' Jesus
replied. 'My time has not yet come.'.....
"Jesus said to the servants, 'Fill the jars
with water'; so they filled them to the brim.
Then he told them, 'Now draw some out and take it to the
master of the banquet.'
They did so and the master of the banquet tasted the water
that had been turned to wine...."
*******************
"Considered as a rationally justifiable set of claims about an
objective something, ethics is illusory. I appreciate that when somebody
says 'Love thy neighbor as thyself', they think they are referring
above...and beyond themselves...Nevertheless...such reference is truly
without foundation. Morality is just an aid to survival and
reproduction...and any deeper meaning is illusory."--Michael Ruse
**************
"Eventually materialist philosophy undermines the reliability of the
mind itself--and hence even the basis for science. The true foundation of
rationality is not found in particles and impersonal laws but in the mind of
the Creator who formed us in his image." -Phillip Johnson
*****
"The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so
that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is
the image of God.....
"But we have this treasure in jars of clay...." (2
Corinthians 4: 4...7a)
