Young Earth People Better Shut Up!

Last night we had a small group Bible study at our church and I asked for a show of hands of how many of the 20 people there believed the earth was very young, meaning 10,000 years or less.  All the hands went up.

So here is another area that persecution of Bible believing Christians is going to take place...in the arena of those who believe in young earth and DENY billions and billions of years.  Of course those who DENY man-made global warming are also going to be a target of the angry atheist-liberal types.

Sir David Attenborough is one of the great naturalists of our time, celebrated for decades of peerless documentary making, an infectious love of the animal kingdom and that distinctive and enthusiastic whisper. Once criticized by campaigners for his reticence to address contentious issues, Attenborough is no longer willing to speak in hushed tones.

Sitting opposite the kangaroo enclosure at London Zoo, he told The Daily Beast he had lost patience with the “ignorance” of creationists, polluters, and climate change deniers. “To simply say that you must accept unquestioningly what you learned at your mother’s knee is not the act of an intelligent person,” he said.

In fact, Attenborough says he has finally grown sick of America’s attitude to climate change. “I think it’s very sad that people won’t accept evidence for what it says—it’s extraordinary that one of the wealthiest, materially advanced societies in the world can support irrational myths in that way,” he said. “That they should do it privately is up to them but since what they do effects that whole world it’s pretty serious that they should not accept that humanity has been responsible for these changes that are absolutely evident to everyone else.”

He has less time for those who deny the existence of evolution, however. “Every society in the world has found it necessary to produce a story to account for the fact that humanity is on earth,” he said. “The Australian Aboriginals think that the first humans were regurgitated by a great rainbow serpent in the sky, the people in Thailand think the beginning of the world was a huge pool of milk and a snake was pulled by demons, and the milk coagulated and that formed human beings and there was a time, two and a half to three thousand years ago, when people on the east end of the Mediterranean thought woman was made from the rib of the first man.

“If somebody says to me I believe every word of the Bible is true, you can’t argue against that degree of irrationality…there is actually a way of looking at the natural world and seeing the evidence and it’s all there. And what’s more it’s the same evidence whether it’s in Australia or Northern Europe or wherever. It’s all the same—it all produces the same answer and you can all see the evidence—if you reject that then there’s nothing I can say.”

Uh-oh....he has less time for those of us who deny evolution!!  That means we are idiots!!  If we can't see that life formed out of nothing, then became a fish which became a lizard, which became a squirrel which became a monkey which became a man....then WE are idiots!!  And soon we idiots will not be allowed to get science scholarships or maybe jobs....because we question OLD EARTH and man-made global warming.

Forget the FACT that there is NO EVIDENCE of one KIND of animal morphing into another KIND of animal.

Let's do a quick search of the Bible for the word, "fool" & "foolishness"...and see if this man fits into what the Bible describes.

Psalm 14:1
 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good.

1 Corinthians 1:18
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

1 Corinthians 1:25
For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.

1 Corinthians 2:14
The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.

1 Corinthians 3:19
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”

And lastly, we have a biblical answer for WHY so many Bible believers are conservatives and lean towards voting Republican...while atheists and liberals tend to vote Democrat.

Ecclesiastes 10:2
The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left.
