Scams

Scams you have been led to believe by a lot of supposedly smart people.

Space Aliens and UFO's. In fact, physics places severe limitations on the time and speed needed for any objects that have mass. Travel between stars with planets that could sustain life would take many thousands of years. I don't doubt UFO's but they are not piloted by aliens from other planets.

Life began in a primordial sea. You have been taught that the beginning of life was due to the right chemistry and that complexity evolved through random mutations over time. In fact, life requires an extreme amount of information on many levels which has not and logically could not self organize.  Mutations are always regressive, i.e. the loss of information and there is no logic for development of more complex information over time without immediate benefit.

Variety in species is proof of evolution. In fact, species react to their environment by utilizing information already present for minor changes without adding complexity and can do so only as far as that information allows.

An unborn baby is not a unique human life until it is delivered and unless it is wanted. In fact, once a woman's egg has been fertilized a new human life has begun. It has all the information it will need to develop into a special person with a special destiny, no matter how he or she was conceived and how much he or she is desired. 

Carbon emissions are bad for the environment, less carbon consumption will reduce global temperatures and rates that sea levels rise but will increase severity of weather. In fact, carbon is food plants eat and need. More carbon will equal more and healthier vegetation thus allowing more people to be fed. Fossil fuel consumption has been the key factor in bringing a large portion of the world's population out of poverty. Man released carbon is only a minor fraction of total air born carbon and its total elimination will only have a tiny effect on temperatures. Sea levels have risen at the same rate since we started measuring them and historically there has been more severe weather events during periods of colder temperatures.

All people are basically good so Utopia can be achieved through the leadership of an enlightened leader or leaders and a managerial class who control production, distribution and the education of the masses. In fact, a government needs checks and balances on its ruling class precisely because all men are basically selfish and will, without the desire to follow the will of God, ultimately be deceived into following the will of Satan.

What are the practical results of those scams? The prospect of a Designer and a Creator has as its logical conclusion that God has a will for every person, that our lives are not really our own and that Designer and Creator should be worshiped and obeyed. But even the most intelligent of us have this great desire to be the lord of our own lives. This blinds many to what is obvious and leads others to the deception of false gods that can be satisfied with works and religious acts.

Satan wants to deceive us about the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He wants individuals, families, people groups and the population of countries to be controlled by his servants and he does that by offering the illusion of a life that would be better by doing and being the opposite of what God desires for us. He ultimately operates through pride, fear and intimidation and the fruits of his rule is always suffering and death, even for the elite.

So the next time you hear about spending billions to find water on Mars so we can better understand how life began, or are told that climate change will lead to the destruction of mankind so we must eliminate fossil fuels, or that overturning Roe V Wade is anti woman, or read that aliens are probing our private parts, or are asked to vote for people who cannot define what a woman is and see the Constitution as an impediment to progress, just step back and think about why this is happening and who is benefiting from it.
