People may cry that they have their rights, but actually have no idea of the ultimate source of rights. Indeed, this is similar to when folks say that <a href="https://veritasdomain.wordpress.com/2022/10/21/guest-post-because-i-deserve-it/" target="_blank">they deserve something, but cannot really say why</a>.</p><p>Simply demanding something and saying that it is a human right does not make what is desired necessary — or even a right. Sure, the state can grant legal rights, but those can be capricious and even removed. True rights do have an ultimate source, but this is in stark contrast to what secular people desire.</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUkyTWDTl-YnLnp_7-0x_hsQDnzMrHlqZEF4_fzpy4LM5MPGM27OXPjWolecwISOD4TjU6CRegheRIqqLjxG8CgrmXZb8tnsooXM-wx3TW4-crFbcG4W2DmbW71oCy99jPvRN5twXR4qHSbAMNL5A0GoDKut-e95o2pOJizyEyDQX2wRPrBII/s585/Human%20Rights%20and%20the%20image%20of%20God.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="People claim to have rights.

The Dobbs decision in 2022 reversed Roe. Democrats were outraged because they thought their leftist sacred sacrament was threatened, and there are many false statements about the "right to an abortion" being ended. <a href="https://2peter119.blogspot.com/2022/06/abortion-was-never-right.html" target="_blank">Abortion was never a right</a>. Even if it was a "Constitutional human right" as some claim, the Constitution can be changed through amendments.<div><p>Secularists try to stand for human rights, but they cannot be consistent. Immoral things are touted as "rights" and laws enacted to protect them, but the human rights of others (such as Christians) are trampled. In reality, the most consistent way to view and implement human rights is to go back to Genesis and the image of God. Some rights are stated directly, while others need to be set in writing using biblical principles.</p><blockquote><p><span style="color: #274e13;">The existence of human rights, or <i>prima facie</i> entitlements applying to all persons on account of their humanity, is often treated as a basic assumption in ethics, law, and justice. Many ethical dilemmas concern conflicting claims to rights, and voices on both sides of major controversies like abortion frequently frame their arguments in terms of rights. But all this discourse is meaningless unless the rights referred to are grounded in a meaningful foundation. If such a foundation exists and is knowable, then we can understand which rights exist, which rights take precedence, and how to resolve controversies surrounding rights.</span></p></blockquote><p><b>This article is not a quick read, but very useful.

Overall, his was better than mine — and well-suited for Question Evolution Day. We will get to that later.</p><p>I had written about how believers in atoms-to-atheist evolution are actually <a href="https://www.piltdownsuperman.com/2023/02/evolutionists-wasting-time-and-money.html" target="_blank">wasting time and money</a>. The secular science industry is getting uppity, acting like they have the truth, and <a href="https://www.dictionary.com/browse/froward" target="_blank">froward</a> people who have the temerity to question evolution are <i>bad.</i> (Once again, I must say that there are scientists who simply want to do science stuff, they're swept along by the organizations over them.) The propagandists at the Darwin Ranch over yonder near Deception Pass bamboozle the public into believing that evolution is an irresistible force.</p><p>Not only is the secular science industry promoting leftist causes, they are using social(ist) media as well as movies, television, literature, and others to spread their views. One purpose of Question Evolution Day is to encourage free speech, but notice how feral evolutionists ridicule those of us who do not float downstream with the rest of them.</p><p>The Intelligent Design folks as well as biblical creationists show that Darwin's acolytes do <i>not</i> have superior science and knowledge, nor do they use proper logic when interpreting their observations. Instead, they have bluster, evolution popularizers who are not really scientists, and a heapin' helpin' of posturing.</p><p>Atheists and secular humanists (the two are pretty much indistinguishable) blow smoke in our eyes, equivocating on <i>evolution</i> and <i>science</i> as well as <i>change</i> and <i>science</i>. Something happens that doesn't fit the evolutionary paradigm? They pretend to be excited about what is actually devastating news, saying it provides new "evolutionary insight" or other nonsense. Indeed, they do some things that are truly bizarre by claiming loss of features is evolution, and claim victory when something actually shows the opposite of evolution. Instead of praising evolution, the boardrooms of the secular science industry echo with, "Hail Darwin! Blessed be!" This child wonders if they're being deliberately deceptive, or don't even know about evolution.</p><p>These people are promoting adherence to science as the answer to everything. Materialists believe in atoms but not Eve, and there is no Creator (Psalm 14:1, Proverbs 1:8). This is a religious view called <i>Scientism</i>.</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs0rGgQ0TDuiNNUFOOCs4wpFJ60GN2Mo9yPZgT-7Gee3zzGjxSvzFsRk_BTMwto186V3klkOGXVVxqjHh6RiVn7GsR-Pa2CBkgB52slFkzqrs4Ng5XsYydaL5JWw21zZgO_Xjj5HezMWR5idmBDRiuYQ6SCRB_Nqs3f6craTDJLrbhbmJF7R4/s820/Question%20Evolution%20Day%2012%20reduced%20size.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Question Evolution Day, Charlie Darwin shush" border="0" data-original-height="364" data-original-width="820" height="178" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs0rGgQ0TDuiNNUFOOCs4wpFJ60GN2Mo9yPZgT-7Gee3zzGjxSvzFsRk_BTMwto186V3klkOGXVVxqjHh6RiVn7GsR-Pa2CBkgB52slFkzqrs4Ng5XsYydaL5JWw21zZgO_Xjj5HezMWR5idmBDRiuYQ6SCRB_Nqs3f6craTDJLrbhbmJF7R4/w400-h178/Question%20Evolution%20Day%2012%20reduced%20size.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: arial; font-size: small;"><i>You</i> can be a part of <a href="http://www.piltdownsuperman.com/p/question-evolution-day.html" target="_blank">Question Evolution Day</a>, now and in the future!</span></td></tr></tbody></table>A big black rapper called Cowboy Troy had a song several years ago titled "<a href="https://youtu.be/NUPK9z59yUc" target="_blank">I Play Chicken with the Train</a>."

Like some other animals, migrating bats can make use of the earth’s magnetic field to orientate themselves, including flying over large stretches of featureless ocean. This ability is called magnetoreception, and has been referred to as a sixth sense. Tiny particles of magnetic iron oxide (magnetite; Fe3O4) are thought to play a role. The mechanism is far from clear, but the cornea, a transparent ‘window’ in front of the iris and pupil of the eye, has been suggested as a possibly significant part of this navigation system in mammals:</span></blockquote><p><b>To read the rest, navigate your way over to "<a href="https://creation.com/bats-see-magnetism" target="_blank">Bats ‘see’ the earth’s magnetic field</a>."

A man insisted that he was dead. His family was upset and tried to convince him otherwise, but to no avail (post-mortem muscle responses, all that sort of thing). They took him to his doctor who asked him if dead men bleed. The man thought about it for a spell, then admitted that it was not possible. The doctor alcohol-swabbed his thumb, jabbed it, and they watched bright red blood coming out. "What do you know?" the man said. "Dead men <i>do</i> bleed!"<div><br /><div>It's a good story to show presuppositions, and can be funny if told correctly, but I wanted to make a point: Facts do not matter if someone chooses to believe a story. Papa Darwin works in millions of years his wonders to perform, and secularists want to make sure they're available to him. They make assumptions about radiometric dating, deal from the bottom of the deck. Also, they exclude creationists who ask the tough questions and bring up points of discussion that they'd rather not face. The uncontaminated truth supports recent creation.</div></div><blockquote><div><span style="color: #783f04; font-family: Roboto;">The study of “environmental DNA” (eDNA) is a rapidly advancing field.

Others admit there is no insight, and they have to deal with it. But how can it break evolutionary rules when those alleged rules are extremely inconsistent? Scientific laws don't work that way, old son. They are consistent because the Master Engineer designed them that way so science would be possible in the first place.<br /><blockquote><p><span style="color: #783f04; font-family: Source Serif Pro;">Evolution theory has been challenged yet again, this time in regard to a unique mammal fossil discovered in East Africa, “A team of 14 international researchers...published the comprehensive description and analysis of this opossum-sized mammal that lived among dinosaurs and massive crocodiles near the end of the Cretaceous period (145-66 million years ago) on Madagascar.”</span></p><p><span style="color: #783f04; font-family: Source Serif Pro;"> . . .</span></p><p><span style="color: #783f04; font-family: Source Serif Pro;">With such strange and unique features, it’s a daunting task to attempt to classify Adalatherium in an evolutionary tree. For instance, “its skeleton is nothing short of outlandish” and the teeth are “beyond bizarre.”</span></p><p><span style="color: #783f04; font-family: Source Serif Pro;">Therefore, evolutionists have determined that <i>Adalatherium</i> should be classified as a Gondwanatherian, a mysterious group quite different from other existing mammals.

He probably did show all present that his lungs worked.)

Note, NOT rarity, despite the misnomer—samarium is more plentiful than tin, while neodymium is about five times more common—about as plentiful as cobalt, nickel, or copper. The problem is mining it: they are not in concentrated seams, so a lot of material must be mined to extract enough of the metal.

They were extremely careful to avoid contamination, as it is extremely easy to contaminate something old with modern DNA, which can happen in ways most people would not imagine. It seems a bit like closing the barn door after the animals escaped, since fossils have been in conditions that would not only be prone to contamination, but also deterioration from the elements.</span><div><span style="font-family: Roboto;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto;">The dates assigned to the fossils are suspect, and claims of evolution actually work the opposite way. Neanderthals were, as we know, fully human and interbred with other humans. They were descendants of Noah's sons and part of the <a href="https://radaractive.blogspot.com/2019/12/neanderthal-extinction-ideas-raise-questions.html" target="_blank">dispersion at Babel</a>.</span><blockquote><div><div><span style="color: #783f04; font-family: Roboto Serif;">Pääbo’s team first sequenced Neanderthal mitochondria from a single bone. Then the team sequenced ancient DNA found in the nucleus from three Neanderthal bone specimens. The bone specimens came from the Vindija cave in Croatia, and also from Neanderthals found in Germany, Russia, and Spain. Eventually Pääbo sequenced the three billion base pairs of the entire Neanderthal genome. Then, Pääbo sequenced DNA from a finger bone discovered in a cave in southern Siberia.</span></div><div><span style="color: #783f04; font-family: Roboto Serif;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: #783f04; font-family: Roboto Serif;">Success in completing these tasks were widely believed to be impossible. Now, it is common. Pääbo’s success opened up a new field, namely the now fiercely competitive field of paleogenomics, which concerns the analysis of ancient DNA. So far paleogenomics has complete genetic sequencing on almost 8,000 “ancient” individuals.</span></div></div></blockquote><p><b><span style="font-family: Roboto;">To read it all, see "<a href="https://crev.info/2022/10/nobel-prize-for-human-non-evolution/" target="_blank">Nobel Prize for Human Non-Evolution</a>."

Other scientists are using that event and making it bigger. It supposedly caused earthquakes and tsunamis. However, the presentations are incomplete, leaving out some important details about what else would have happened.<div><p>Notice again how uniformitarian geologists who insist on slow and gradual processes over long periods of time will occasionally use catastrophism in one form or another. They are admitting that there are weaknesses in their beliefs. Unfortunately, they do not "follow where the science leads" because the evidence leads to the hugely catastrophic Genesis Flood. Creation science Flood models offer far better explanations than those promoted by secularists — including earthquakes, volcanism, and tsunamis.</p><blockquote><p><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Roboto Slab;">Two separate studies claim massive tsunamis and earthquakes from an asteroid impact profoundly affected the rock record. One research team modeled a 1.5 km (1 mile) high water wave that propagated across the ocean following the Chicxulub impact, causing sweeping erosion across the ocean floor. Another report asserted the same impact generated a mega-earthquake that caused twisted and contorted sedimentary layering around the world. However, claims of a massive dinosaur-killing impact in the Yucatan Peninsula are not compelling. Instead, these global phenomena are better explained by the global Flood described in Genesis.</span></p></blockquote><p><b>To read the rest, sail over to "<a href="https://www.icr.org/article/Massive-Tsunami-Waves" target="_blank">Massive Tsunamis Generated by the Flood, Not an Asteroid</a>."</b></p></div><p></p><center><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/i8SCjn1hubc" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></center><p></p>Piltdown Supermanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15113008553245076610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21317674.post-23504526976329165052022-11-06T05:00:00.086-05:002022-11-06T05:00:00.171-05:00Even Aphids Make Darwin Sad<p>Once again, we are going to examine an unpleasant creature because it shows the design work of the Master Engineer.

Some seem to figure, "Evolutionists are wrong but they're really swell folks and honest at heart, and hey, cladistics is a tool to work with, so let's use that." Bad idea. Cladistics involves circular reasoning: Assuming evolution to prove evolution. Creationists should be above such poor logic and judgment.</p><p>The paper featured here discusses the problem of cladistics. Also, why baraminology should leave it alone and how using it causes problems. We also see some of the history of Archie (including how some people originally thought it was fake or tried to classify it in various ways). Some of the paper will probably be skimmed by most readers, that's fine. The most important part is how, despite dishonesty among Darwin's cheerleaders, <i>Archaeopteryx</i> is not part dinosaur, not a transitional form, it's an interesting but extinct bird.</p><blockquote><p><i>Archaeopteryx</i> has been one of the most studied fossils since its discovery in 1861. Yet, the classification of the species is still under debate. Many controversies remain regarding the feather, taxonomic classification, flight capabilities, its “evolution,” and whether <i>Archaeopteryx</i> is a transitional form, a reptile with feathers, or a bird. This paper’s scope is to briefly discuss the latter controversy because it has kept creation and secular scientists’ view divided. The history of <i>Archaeopteryx</i> findings, their historical interpretations, the role of Linnaean and cladistics classification methods, and the implications of all that on <i>Archaeopteryx</i>’s classification were analyzed. This analysis demonstrates its placement as a bird is supported.</p></blockquote><p><b>You can read it all at "<a href="https://answersresearchjournal.org/dinosaurs/debate-classification-archaeopteryx-bird/" target="_blank">The Debate over Classification of Archaeopteryx as a Bird</a>."</b> Also of interest is a bird with interesting similarities to Archie, "<a href="https://www.piltdownsuperman.com/2019/02/hoatzin-bird-hassles-evolutionists.html" target="_blank">Hoatzin Bird Hassles Evolutionists</a>."</p><p></p><center><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/WopQDQvoTEk" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></center><p></p>Piltdown Supermanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15113008553245076610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21317674.post-15261452122094784902022-10-09T05:00:00.128-04:002022-10-09T05:00:00.145-04:00Bird Embryo Foolishness for Dinosaur Evolution<p>Just recently I was jawing with Hammond Suisse about how if evolution were true, the hands at the Darwin Ranch would not need fraud and desperately weak science to prop up their theory.

He is extremely intelligent and puts serious effort into his work. When looking up evolution by natural selection, it is common for some sites to say that Alfred Russel Wallace and Charles R. Darwin were its co-discoverers.

Darwin</span></td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-family: verdana;">It did not help Wallace that he backed off on evolutionary views rather quickly, instead promoting something kinder and gentler. It could be considered an early form of today's Intelligent Design movement. I suspect that Alfred's non-atheistic approach is also a reason that he was becoming obscured. Meanwhile, Darwin was moving forward.</span><div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana;">Something that is arguably difficult to grasp by modern American readers (and possibly by people in England today) is the class system. It was dominated by economics, but also had a culture of its own; people were considered "better" than others because of their social status. There was a loyalty of not only friendship, but also to the class.</span><div><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Although people disagreed with Charlie's views, they were his loyal friends and helped to promote him anyway. Neil Thomas thinks that Darwin must have been a much nicer guy than those photographs and paintings project.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">For this child, Christians could take some basic lessons from this. We are sharing the gospel of Christ and equipping other Christians (some of us have a ministry in biblical creation science). As members of the Christian class (that is, brothers and sisters by the blood of Christ), we need to support, encourage, and uphold one another. (Rebukes in love when necessary as well.)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Neil is coming from his worldview, and I am doing the same. I perceive that when he discusses advocates of Darwin's acceptance in these formerly United States, there is a spiritual component that an agnostic cannot perceive. Louis Agassiz was established and respected in America but was critical of evolution. Asa Gray defended Darwin to Agassiz, even saying that perhaps God used evolution. What I suggest is that the effort to replace God was a spiritual impetus to make Darwinism acceptable in America.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Instead of believing Scripture as so many had done (and a few were still using Scripture with science), Christians were ceding science to materialists. If <i>scientists </i>believe that the world is old, yee haw boy howdy, it must be so! Must be time to say that the Bible has myths and allegories, innit? Deep time is indispensable for evolution, so feckless Christians of yore inadvertently gave evolution a boost by accepting it despite lack of evidence.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Thomas said that the English class system and advocates for evolution in America were reasons Charlie not only succeeded, but why Wallace was being lost from view. A third reason is that Darwin's loyal friends, despite their own beliefs, loyally provided propaganda. Again, Christians should take notice of loyalty to brothers and sisters, and especially to the cross of Christ.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;">Now I suggest that you read the three articles without my interruptions:</span></p><p></p><ol style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="https://evolutionnews.org/2022/08/why-darwin-eclipsed-wallace-darwin-and-the-english-class-system/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Why Darwin Eclipsed Wallace: Darwin and the English Class System</span></a></li><li><a href="https://evolutionnews.org/2022/08/why-darwin-eclipsed-wallace-darwin-comes-to-america/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Why Darwin Eclipsed Wallace: Darwin Comes to America</span></a></li><li><a href="https://evolutionnews.org/2022/08/why-darwin-eclipsed-wallace-the-role-of-propaganda/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Why Darwin Eclipsed Wallace: The Role of Propaganda</span></a></li></ol><div><span style="font-family: verdana;">As I did in the other post, I am asking people to pray for Neil Thomas that he will humble himself and submit his life to Jesus Christ.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RpjYhtM_P0A" width="320" youtube-src-id="RpjYhtM_P0A"></iframe></span></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span><div><br /></div><p></p></div></div>Piltdown Supermanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15113008553245076610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21317674.post-76460438492825091692022-09-18T05:00:00.109-04:002022-09-18T05:00:00.149-04:00Penguin DNA Study Tainted by Evolutionary GuessworkPenguins are actually more diverse than many people may realize.

But what makes these birds so unique and the subject of continued scientific research? Reuters recently highlighted the research of Theresa Cole and others on penguins, as they look to obtain a more robust understanding of what makes penguins unique both physically and genetically.</div></blockquote><p><b>To keep reading, swim on over to "<a href="https://answersingenesis.org/biology/penguins-all-dressed-and-nowhere-go/" target="_blank">Penguins: All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Go</a>."</b> You may also be interested in "<a href="https://www.piltdownsuperman.com/2015/10/penguin-eggs-put-evolutionary-thinking.html" target="_blank">Penguin Eggs Put Evolutionary Thinking on Ice</a>."</p><p></p><center><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/MfstYSUscBc" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></center><p></p>Piltdown Supermanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15113008553245076610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21317674.post-89654717266542817412022-09-11T05:00:00.089-04:002022-09-11T05:00:00.179-04:00Getting a Kick out of Ice Age Footprints<p>Two researchers were on a U.S. Air Force test range in Utah's West Desert looking for signs of campfires from way back when, but they found footprints instead. These went back to the Ice Age, and were formed by rather interesting conditions. They are similar to Ice Age tracks in other parts of the world.</p><p>Biblical creation scientists and their secular counterparts agree that there was an Ice Age, but then they part ways. Secularists believe in numerous ice ages, but they only have enough evidence to hang their hats on only one.</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv9iydepWck8RFkmrjAz22rmJd42yFxYhgvpaGvMYc4fI9_pzuk0YicawxiETSHfGw3k3JSLXdZnRc6wXQaVl-iGROrblwDIeYBjTJpyxXshPjUXqzJshSG91Z5o2emY3z4Z56-9n_GRQYdWL6th4KHqBmSkKYSunW0Jm2NB7c8tZORRVX_Io/s585/Beach%20footprints%20via%20Freepik.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="329" data-original-width="585" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgv9iydepWck8RFkmrjAz22rmJd42yFxYhgvpaGvMYc4fI9_pzuk0YicawxiETSHfGw3k3JSLXdZnRc6wXQaVl-iGROrblwDIeYBjTJpyxXshPjUXqzJshSG91Z5o2emY3z4Z56-9n_GRQYdWL6th4KHqBmSkKYSunW0Jm2NB7c8tZORRVX_Io/s320/Beach%20footprints%20via%20Freepik.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: arial; font-size: small;">Beach footprints via <a href="https://www.freepik.com/free-photo/high-angle-footprint-sand-beach_9468561.htm" target="_blank">Freepik</a></span></td></tr></tbody></table>Bare feet making tracks in the Ice Age? That required wet conditions.

Creation science models of the Genesis Flood and the conditions at the time provide satisfactory answers about how it happened. It also explains why ancient Egypt and Israel were desirable places to live.<blockquote><div><span style="color: #351c75; font-family: arial;">Anthropologists Thomas Urban (Cornell University) and Daron Duke (Far Western Anthropological Research Group) recently found preserved human footprints on an Air Force testing range located on the salt flats of Utah. These footprints are called “ghost tracks” because they are very hard to see except after rainfall when moisture can make them visible. Ground-penetrating radar revealed the presence of even more impressions for a total of 88 footprints.</span></div></blockquote><p><b>To finish reading, stroll on over to "<a href="https://www.icr.org/article/fossil-ftprint-flood/" target="_blank">Fossil Footprints Fit Flood Ice-Age Model</a>."</b></p><p></p><center><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/iUJXWaFwA78" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></center><p></p>Piltdown Supermanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15113008553245076610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21317674.post-71047140928362746462022-09-04T05:00:00.086-04:002022-09-04T05:00:00.170-04:00Evolutionists Worried about MoralityMaterialists presuppose that reality is comprised of things made of atoms and such, so there is no room in their belief systems for intangible things — especially the supernatural. And yet, they <a href="https://www.piltdownsuperman.com/2022/07/monkeying-around-evolution-morality.html" target="_blank">cannot account for morality and ethics</a>. After all, we are just dancing to our electrochemical impulses, right?<div><br /></div><div>When misotheists ridicule Christians and creationists, they are being hypocritical. In their worldview, we are born this way and they are born the way they are.

So what? Those jaspers are simply being consistent with their fundamentally-flawed worldview, doing what they think will make them more fit to survive. In fact, the pay-to-cheat industry is not just limited to high school term papers. Materialists are reaping what they have sown.<div><br /></div><div>It is ironic that some of them cry about lack of ethics in their own ranks, but perpetuate the lie that humans and chimps have a ninety-eight percent DNA similarity.</div><div><br /></div><div>True morality comes from God as revealed in the Bible.
