The Priests of Evolution
Evolutionism (that which dominates the current secular learning in$titution$ around the world) has all the markings of a "Religion". It is a religion with priests who promote it feverishly on a global scale. It's members donate large sums religiously to their temples of worship and study. And even more compelling is this fact: if you don't embrace the creed of Darwin, you are removed from prominent places of the Priesthood. The latter point is why this list of scientists rejecting Darwinian evolution is not more lengthy. "But why?" you ask. Because they would likely lose their jobs and/or their credibility and/or their funding within their respective in$titution$.
There are at least 6 meanings for the word "Evolution", and all of them minus one are purely religious. You'll see them listed further below. The reason I refer to scientists who zealously teach Evolutionistic doctrines as Priests of Evolution is because they blindly teach the precepts of their religion (largely based upon Faith) with similar dedication as a Catholic Priest would, although I think the Catholic priest has much better evidence to support his belief.
The reason I even bother to talk about the Priests of Evolution here is because they are the keepers of most all the genetic evidence we need to identify Israelites in the world today. They look at most all the genetic evidence through a mental filter called "Evolution" and thus they feed the world Evolutionistic interpretations of the data and you must accept it because they are "Scientists". Never question a Priest, right?
I realize most Evolutionists are brilliant and very capable scientists, but their religion often gets disguised as "science" by association and it then impedes the real science that employs them. To be fair, I also realize that religious non-biblical doctrines have impeded science more than once in the past. The raw biblical data generally doesn’t conflict with any realm of science. It is usually just religious people and their own ideas or agendas which come into conflict with scientific progress, and sometimes rightfully so.
The following is taken from Dr. Hovind's 250,000 Offer.
Students in tax-supported schools are being taught that evolution is a fact. We are convinced that evolution is a religion masquerading as science and should not be part of any science curriculum. It has nothing to do with the subject of science. There are at least six different and unrelated meanings to the word “evolution” as used in science textbooks.
1. Cosmic evolution- the origin of time, space and matter. Big Bang.
2. Chemical evolution- the origin of higher elements from hydrogen.
3. Stellar and planetary evolution- Origin of stars and planets.
4. Organic evolution- Origin of life from inanimate matter.
5. Macroevolution- Origin of major kinds.
6. Microevolution Variations within kinds- Only this one has been observed, the first five are religious. They are believed, by faith, even though there is no empirical evidence to prove them in any way. While I admire the great faith of the evolutionists who accept the first five I object to having this religious propaganda included in with legitimate science at taxpayer’s expense.
Even a quick review of a typical public school textbook will show that students are being deceived into thinking all six types of evolution above have been proven because evidence is given for minor variations called micro-evolution. The first five are smuggled in when no one is watching.
This deception is a classic case of bait and switch. One definition of evolution (such as “descent with modification”) is given and the others are assumed to be true by association. The first five meanings are believed by faith, have never been observed and are religious. Only the last one is scientific. It is also what the Bible predicted would happen. The animals and plants would bring forth “after their kind” in Genesis 1.
