		<description>Hmmm.....

In the bigining, God created Man and all life on this Planet...
Long ago, Man used to worship God...
Then, Man killed in the name of God... 
Then, Man slowly forgot to worship God... 
Then, Man started to believe there is no God... 
Then, Man took God out the his life... 
Then, Man strated to impose an anti-God form of religion....
Then, Man laugh at God and assaulted Him...
Then, probably, Man will outlaw all who still beleive in God...
Then, probably, Man will persecute all who still believe in God...
Then, God will get angry...</description>

		<description>Bilaam was a priest who toadied up to Balak for a price.  So how about the nice men of the cloth today who do the same for a place at the table of respectability (and maybe also a job)?  Anyone reading Parashat Balak (Numbers 22:2-25:9) this weekend might reflect on the fact that anti-IDism is a form of anti-Semitism, because if you can depose the Designer you have also put the God of the Torah out of a job and turned the Jewish people into the purveyors of the world&#039;s most pernicious &quot;meme&quot;.</description>

		<description>Rude,

This is a great commentary.  Who is Bilaam today?  I have my thoughts both for the Jewish people and for Western Society in general and Darwinism in particular.</description>

		<description>Having just read Rabbi Berel WeinÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s &lt;a href=&quot;http://jewishworldreview.com/wein/wein_balak.php3&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;brief comments&lt;/a&gt; on this weekÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s Torah portion I am struck by how we in ID face the same twin threats that are inherent in anti-Semitism.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Balak is brutal, direct and minces no words. The existence of the Jewish people itself is somehow seen as a lethal threat to him and Moab. Bilaam, on the other hand, is suave, cunning, full of sweet words and blessings, but no less inimical to the existence of the Jewish people. . . .

Without Bilaam, Balak cannot function, let alone succeed. And therefore the Torah nowhere describes for us the demise of Balak; it only deals with the killing of Bilaam. For the end of Bilaam is in fact the end of Balak as well.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It should be easy to see how this fits the war on ID.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;We must neutralize religious belief if we are to avoid repeating this terrible tragedy. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
What a conundrum. We must kill off these religious believers in order to prevent them from spreading their infectious meme. Tragedy is required in order to prevent tragedy!

Yet these religious beliefs are obviously the result of evolution, not the result of some obvioulsy non-existent God. So we must deny evolution, in order to save evolution.

Darwinists/Athiests are obviously insane.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;For example, Darwinists have always been on the forefront of advancing human rights through eugenics and genocide for the common good.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It was in the most enthusiastic Darwin-worshipping states (all communist countries) that 100 million people were killed.  Apparently, oppression of religion and official veneration of the Master were not powerful enough forces to stop the theistic religious impulse that had been implanted by thousands of years of evolution.  The desire to know and experience God remained, and millions died.  We must neutralize religious belief if we are to avoid repeating this terrible tragedy.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Thousands of years of history passed without his inane theory and now, they reason, that the world will cease to function without him!?!&lt;/blockquote&gt;

You obviously don&#039;t understand evolution.  Go spend a couple of hours over at talkorigins, then we can have a discussion.  

At least that&#039;s what I was told by a passionate Darwinist/athiest at work.</description>

		<description>Jehu:  

right on.

They are now claiming to be the protectors of liberty &quot;and justice for all&quot; - all while witch hunting, persecuting, denying tenure etc. to their opponents. Not to mention doing everything in their power to imitate the totalitarian regimes in character assassination and policing academia like the Gestapo (who also loved the great infallible Pope Darwin the 1st).

As Orwell so justly said, &quot;some are more equal than others&quot; eh.

Yes brothers and sisters of the congregation of Darwin the great, our Lord and savior Charley taught us that we are mere &quot;animals and share a common heritage with earthworms&quot; and therefore we have inherent rights to peace, the pursuit of happiness life and liberty! 
(just like worms and lab rats right?
Umm... oops... wonder where those rights come from under that scheme?)

I can just imagine good brother Jones preaching it this way before the next honorary degree assembly - so rightly merited for his keen expertise and lucid insight in copy/paste groveling!</description>

		<description>I understand, before Darwin there was no advancement of human rights, democracy, or sciennce. 

For example, Darwinists have always been on the forefront of advancing human rights through eugenics and genocide for the common good.

Darwinists have advanced democracy by silencing debate on the issue of origins.

And Darwinists have promoted science by excluding from the discussion any evidence that design exists in nature.</description>

		<description>&quot;...a dangerous attack on scientific knowledge.&quot; 
This is hilarious.  

&quot;... evolution as a fundamental scientific theory is therefore crucial to the future of our societies and our democracies,&quot; 

Indeed!? The implication is that, before Darwin, the future of &#039;our societies and our democracies&#039; was null.  Darwin has saved the world!

How did the world ever survive without him?! Thousands of years of history passed without his inane theory and now, they reason, that the world will cease to function without him!?!

This Darwinist illogical &#039;reasoning&#039; is bleak, blind, anserine and oh so typical of them.

Darwinists are indeed, as Hoyle implied, &quot;mentally ill&quot; creatures - and as such, I would add, immune from normal reason and logic.

The lights are on, the sci-fi TV show is blaring, but nobody&#039;s home.</description>
