,1,Lucifer tempted Christ by presenting him with a portion of scripture and then asking him to apply it incorrectly. He presented him with a truth and then tried to get him make an incorrect conclusion, to jump to a false belief. Atheists do this all the time without seeing that they are following the strategy of lucifer.
"There are no atheists in foxholes but neither are there any Christians. They are both theists. One is begging God to help him kill his enemies, the other is cursing God for getting him into a mess. Neither one will be lifting up his head to turn the other cheek any time soon."
There is no religion nor gender in the 'kingdom of God'. As scripture teaches us, the kingdom of God is within each heart. Atheists stubbornly refuse to admit that they have the capacity for faith and religious belief when such a condition would necessitate the inability to speak. The 'word' has been implanted in every heart but atheists reject its existence since it does not satisfy their arrogant, self important expectations.
"The existence of faith itself, and its global prevalence within the hearts and minds of humans, is evidence for the existence of God." A statement that is foolishness for atheists but self-evident for the chosen children of God.
,1,Richard Dawkins is faithlesse and perverse; that is, he perverts people away from faith towards faithlessness, hopelessness, misery, hopelessness, and death. His follows, repeats and perpetuates the two main lies of lucifer.
1: Yea, hath God said?
and
2: Ye shall not surely die, rather, your eyes will be opened.
,1,I wasn't expecting to have so many replies on my recent videos about Richard Dawkins and atheism.
Atheism is the belief that there is no god. It is a belief just like many other beliefs and that belief is based on faith. Atheists cannot prove the non-existence of God. They have faith that there is no soul or spirit that can exist apart from the body. Most atheists develop their beliefs (or lack thereof) into a religion that absolves them from any responsibility towards a creator and that promotes treating humans no different from animals. Theists use history, ancient scriptures, first hand testimony (the documented teachings of Jesus the Christ), frequent miracles (divine interventions) and inner experience to reinforce their belief in God. Nature itself is sufficent proof for the existence of God. Atheists use scienctific theory, ridicule, (scoffing), condescension and hatred to reinforce their belief in Darwinism, natural selection and the creation of something from nothing.
Richard Dawkins believes that life happened by chance.

,1,Do I hate Richard Dawkins?
Someone commented to me yesterday that I was 100 times harsher towards Dawkins than he was towards Peterson. I would like to comment that I donāt hate Dawkins, I hate what he represents, I hate the team that he plays for.
The reason I attacked him 100 times worse is because I know people have lost their faith due to the efforts of Dawkins. More than once I have heard testimony from individuals who have declared, āI used to believe in God but after reading Dawkins (or hearing him speak somewhere) I am now an atheist.ā
I would not be surprised if Dawkins himself were smugly proud of this accomplishment. Dawkins has declared that there is no soul, no spirit that lives on after death. But scripture declares that it appointed unto man once to die and after this, the judgment.
When Dawkins leaves this world, it is then that his eyes will be opened and he will be forced to face the sovereign creator of the world, the creator and sustainer of all life. Then he will gasp, āWhat have I done?ā But it will be too late.
Perhaps God will ask him why he stubbornly kicked against the pricks of his own conscience, and it is likely that Dawkins will be speechless. Or perhaps he will wail in agony as he is consumed with regret.
Or perhaps God will assign him a hovel in heaven so that all may see the once proud academic has achieved a place of lowest honor in eternity. Perhaps God will cut him in pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers. Whatever his fate, it will not be pretty unless he repents. God is as close to Dawkins as he ever has been; and Richard only has to open his heart to God.
And isnāt this is why so many are atheist? They complain, āIf your God kills people then I donāt want any part of that. If your Bible describes God as capable of killing babies than I want no part of your religion.ā
Sadly, they have never experienced anything beyond their own faulty reasoning.
Atheists have not experienced the fearsomeness of God nor the abject evil of lucifer.
Ou teacher, Christ taught us to fear the one who is able, after he has killed, to destroy both body and soul in hell.
So why do I bother? Why not let Dawkins continue on his merry way? It is partly from my own experience. I have experienced a glimpse of God, a glimpse that debilitated me and left me begging for mercy; an experience that broke my psyche and crushed any elevated regards for this life.
Similarly, I have tasted evil. The absolute lack of mercy and pure hatred that our enemy has for humanity; if atheists were aware of this evil, they would run in the opposite direction. Scripture tells us that hell was made for the devil and his angels. Dawkins and his team of atheists try to play this off as fairy tales. They bring to shipwreck the faith of many. God will hold them in the balance, and they will be found wanting. They need a savior to escape the sentence of hell.
How I wish others could see what I have seen, how I wish they could experience a tiny sliver of the majesty of God, if only their eyes would open to the fact that they are fighting on the side of lucifer, the complete enemy of humanity. This is what I hate, I hate the enemy of humanity who promises life and delivers death. He promises happiness and delivers misery. He has no mercy.
With God there is mercy. With God there is a hope for salvation. With God, all things are possible. Search your conscience and see for yourself. You donāt need me to tell you. God has provided witness within our hearts and access to the kingdom of God is within us. Listen. Open your ears and listen to what God is telling you within your own soul. Have you lost your hearing. Richard Dawkins cannot save you. His proud arrogance will not deliver you in the day of judgment and that day must be faced by all who walk the Earth.
No, I donāt hate Richard Dawkins, I hate what he has delivered to humanity. He has been a spokesperson on behalf of lucifer who continues to ask, āyea, hath God said?ā He gets people to doubt, he gets them to doubt scripture, he gets them to doubt a God who can be both love and ferocity. He gets them to put trust in their own pompous ego rather than trust the only one who can save their souls. No, I donāt hate Richard Dawkins. I pity him with disdain.
Dawkins will be regulated to a footnote in history. His writings will be exposed as mostly circular arguments of no consequence, and his name will fade into obscurity where he belongs.
And what about you? What team do you want to join? Your soul is worth much more than that. Put God first and he will rescue you from the misery of life on Earth. Put God first and he will rescue you from the humiliation of death. Dawkins has chosen to put God last. I urge you, put God first and He will show the path to eternal life that is perfect for you.
,1,Richard Dawkins recently commented on what he thought of Jordan Petersonās ideas on Theology. Dawkins replied by stating that he had great respect for Petersonās battle against the woke agenda to cancel him and yet considered his ideas to be ābullsh*tā.
This comment displays the complete and utterly vile morality of the man, Richard Dawkins. This was not some offhand comment spoken in haste, nor was it in any way meant in jest. Dawkins went out of his way to repeat that he had āgreat respectā for Peterson. Which of course is a complete lie. Anyone who has even a modicum of respect for another would never broadly label their ideas as bullsh*t.
For example, I have absolutely no respect for Dawkinās infantile arguments on the creation of life, so I have no qualms about calling his book, āThe Selfish Geneā total bullsh*t. If I had respect for someone, I may be inclined to say, āI have great respect for this individualsā efforts in this area, but I have to strongly disagree with their ideas on such-and-such a subject.ā This is an obvious example of what it means to display respect. Dawkins on the other hand is so disturbed by any comments that might even remotely ascribe respect to God, that he's compelled to use as disrespectful a term as he could muster.
I would remind any audience of Dawkins comments on Peterson that it is Dawkins ideas which are full of sh*t. His book The Selfish Gene wastes the readers time with hours and hours of convoluted wordsmithing only to reach the moronic and intellectually stunted conclusion that the first cell just āhad to have happenedā and that eventually a cell ājust hadā to have been able to self-replicate.
When pressed, Dawkins even goes on to try and support his ignorant theories with the possibility of the first cells being created by an alien civilization. He will use any reasoning at his disposal to support his arrogant atheism. And thatās exactly what his entire character consists of. He is so arrogant that he has set himself up as his own god.
As far as his writings are concerned, Dawkins can best be described as an overpriced intellectual charlatan. One must pay an expensive price of time to get through his obtuse and blustering books only to realize that this lame academic, that is Dawkins, is completely and utterly without substance.
Dawkins will be tormented in the eternal flames of regret when he finally wakes up and realizes that he has been a total fool. Creation itself has been a witness to his own soul. He has ignored the valuable witness of superior intellects such as Peterson and many others throughout history and instead has installed himself as his own Molech. A deaf and dumb idol who is miserable and poor and wretched.
Richard Dawkinsā false respect is yet another example of his extreme snobbish pomposity. It is he himself who is full of bullsh*t and history will prove his ideas to have been the result of a mentally insignificant mind. Dawkins arguments are no different from the age-old example of the individual who finds a watch on the ground and proclaims, āwell it just had to have assembled itselfā.
His complete lack of sincerity in proclaiming respect for Peterson should be recognized for what it is, a blatant lie. A blatant lie from someone who is empowered and directed by the father of lies; the enemy of humanity.

,1,Reframe Your Brain by Scott Adams - Book Review - Part 2
Scott Adams provides positive reminders that our thoughts can have a significant impact on the quality of our lives. He describes his world view that we are living in a simulation and his belief that we can affect our external reality in a variety of ways.
,1,Reframe Your Brain by Scott Adams - Book Review - Part 1
An excellent guide to looking at life in a more constructive and positive way. But it also reminded me to keep in mind the spiritual things, not just the Earthly things.
,1,I made this video in response to a FB friend who referred me to a YouTube video entitled:
200 Proofs Earth is Not a Spinning Ball (2024 Remastered Edition)
It is an exhausting video to watch but a lot of the 'proofs' can be categorized as:
1: Selective acceptance of 'science'.
2: Selective interpretation of perception.
3: Repetitive examples of personal line-of-sight experiences.
There are also instances of outright dismissal as in the case of suggesting that the International Space Station is a projected hologram.
I believe that the Earth is a sphere but I sympathize with those who hold flat-Earth beliefs because such beliefs could be both psychologically comforting as well as an effective method of self-protecting the psyche.
,1,A brief review of the Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous. An excellent resource for anyone looking to increase their understanding of Economic Theory, the history of Economics, Keynesian Economics, and government monetary policy. It is a difficult read. I would NOT recommend this as an introduction to Bitcoin since it is unlikely the reader will ever reach the chapters that explain the basic background and mechanics of Bitcoin. If they do, they will probably find the discussion flat and unappealing. It would be far better to recommend the various YouTube video series by Robert Breedlove and Michael Saylor on the same topic. That, or the early video presentations by Andreas Antonopolous.
The author presents excellent insights on several topics unrelated to Bitcoin that more than compensate for the majority of the book that consists of dry, academic pedagogy.

,1,Pierre Poilievre dropped the ball by ignoring Canadians during the recent protests by parents against the perverted indoctrination programs being made mandatory in the Canadian public school system.
,1,Today it is common for the evil members of society to create new terms to describe themselves. Then, they demand that all others agree to use these same terms. Those who refuse are labelled as bigots or worse. These people are desperatey trying create their own moral structure because they have rejected the moral structure of Christianity, Isalm and dozens of other faiths that adhere to, and support standards of decency and the protection of children. These people are easy to identify since they use pronouns in their social media bio's - and yet they often want to remain anonymous because, deep down, they know they are evil. "They refuse to come to the light lest their deeds be exposed because their deeds are evil."
These same evil people are demanding that drag-queen story time be made mandatory in elementary schools, libraries, government workplaces and any workplace that has a union. They are trying to pervert society so that their own perversity can be normalized, then celebrated, then made mandatory.
,1,Happy Sunday!
By the time we reach our senior years, most of us will have experienced wounds and scars from various types of trauma. Losing a loved one, broken relationships, abuse from others, business failures, the list goes on.
In spite of past pain, we can focus on being productive in the here and now. Allow the good news of God's love, forgiveness and acceptance - to strengthen our hearts, to be a blessing to others. If we will commit to being a channel for love, our later years can be, indeed will be, our most productive of all.ā¤
,1,(Correction @3:35 The message was sent Friday, Augist 25th to People's Party members, NOT the 27th. Sorry for the error.)
Maxime Bernier recently responded to suggestions that he should join forces with Pierre Poilievre. Instead of listening to these comments, he has dug in his heels and declared that HIS plans are more important than the hopes of his conservative followers. It is his way or the highway.
He is so stubborn that he would rather see the Canadian landscape crash and burn than to ever consider joining forces with the Conservative Party under Poilievre. This shows that his egotistical quest for power at all costs comes before what is best for Canadians in general.
He chose bad strategy while running in Portage-Lisgar, and he is choosing bad strategy once more. He not only alienated himself from the voters in Manitoba, he is now alienating himself from members of his own party.

"Without self-awareness, i.e. without a consciousness that is conscious of itself, man merely imagines that he is in control of himself, that he has free will and is able to carry out his intentions. In fact, as Ouspensky would put it, he has no more freedom to form intentions and act in accordance with them than has a machine. Only in occassional moments of self-awareness has he such freedom, and his most important task is by one means or another to make self-awareness continuous and controllable."

,1,A review of Rational Recovery - The New Cure for Substance Addiction by Jack Trimpey - The Revolutionary Alternative to Alcoholics Anonymous
1 - Author describes the āallureā & ābenefitsā of drinking in too much detail. (Needs to read āBlinkā by Malcolm Gladwell.)
2 ā Author is too combative and essentially malicious towards AA ā and he spends too much time bashing them - unproductive. (Those who are not against us are for us.)
(Pg 72) But there is no Treatment for addiction any more than there would be a treatment for dancing.
(Pg 75) What is to stop anyone from quitting the use of a substance?
Whatever appears as the answer to this question is the sound
of the Addictive Voice.
(Pg 76) If you let your eyes follow the bouncing dollar, you may notice that addiction treatment benefits those who treat far more than those who are treated.
(Pg 125) āIt is hard to control a lion on a leash. Thatās why we keep them in cages.ā Referring to moderation as trying to hold a lion on a leash and abstinence as putting alcohol consumption away ā in a cage so to speak.
You have met the enemy, and it is within you. (Was similar to a famous quote by Nietzsche) (You are your own best friend.) (pg.149)
Language center of the brain, The inner voice that must be recognized = focused self-awareness. (Pg. 150)
The reasons listed for drinking (Pg 151) should be presented in the negative; for example Number 1 should read: Drinking is not good for me. It is not good for the heart,,etc. As written, the author is unintentionally reinforcing the reasons people use to drink!
Although it may be useful to recognize this āAddiction Diction.ā (Pg 152) the author should read āBlinkā by Malcolm Gladwell and incorporate a better, (and safer) delivery of these reasons people use for drinking. e.g. Donāt write detailed descriptions about how delicious food is, if you are writing a diet book!
(Page 190) In traditional programs, one is said to be at high risk of
drinking alcohol if any of the āHALT conditionsā exist. HALT is
the acronym for āhungry, angry, lonely, or tired.ā
(Pg 238) Now, you know what it was (the inner 'Beast') that got the better of youāa part of you that is part of being human but not the essence of being human. Not a human being.
(Pg 244) Addiction is a state of chemically enhanced stupidity that can
be overcome by abstinence.
(Pg 245) Remember that quitting addictions does not make people into ideal personalities.
(Pg 254) reasonable, logical efforts that usually involve
promises to themselves and others to drink less, or to drink less
frequently, only at certain times, or to quit for a period of time
and then drink only moderately. There is nothing wrong with
this, and some people, however few, succeed in achieving the
goal of moderate drinking. This simple approach to addiction or
substance abuse often produces results and costs nothing.
(Pg 295) The quest for statusāand fundingāhas led to progressive
medicalization of human services in America and has spawned
practices that offend common sense, produce little, and very
often create new problems worse than the original.

Page 201: If the generation time is twenty years, comparable with a human generation, then the automata do not change dramatically the conditions of human society. In this case they can multiply and produce new wealth only at about the same rate to which we are accustomed in our normal industrial growth. If the generation time is one year, the situation is different. A single machine then produces a progeny of a million in twenty years, a billion in thirty years, and the economic basis of society can be changed in one human generation.
....bacteria and protozoa, the simplest truly self-reproducing organisms, have generation times of a few hours or days.

Page 216: Many biologists and chemists have concluded from inadequate evidence that the development of intelligent life should be a frequent occurence in our galaxy. Having examined their evidence and heard their arguments, I consider it just as likely that no intelligent species other than our own has ever existed. The question can only be answered by observation.
Page 217: A reasonable long-range program of searching for evidence of intelligence in the universe is indistinguishable from a reasonable long-range program of general astronomical exploration.
Page 220: "...one would expect, when an intelligent species evolves the use of language , that there would be only one language. one would expect that the first speaking animals would evolve a fixed structure of words and meanings, as immutable as the genetic code that evolved the billion years earlier.
This is NOT a naive expectation. A convoluted Darwinian explanation does nothing to change the fact that diversity of language has slowed human co-existence and progress, and just as certainly and obviously has done nothing to speed up global co-operation.
The divine explanation given in Genesis, as an indirect means to slow the perfidity of humans, is just as reasonable, if not more so, than one based on natural selection or any other fanciful Darwinian-based explanation.
Page 221: All three fundamental 'inventions' mention by Freeman Dyson on page 221 death, sex, and speciation require a supreme, exongenous intelligence. The anthropomorphical description used by Dyson, itself, points to the need of an 'inventor'.

Two things we have learned from Wells and Haldane. Man cannot play God and still stay sane. And the progress of biology is inescapably placing in man's hands the power to play God. But from these two facts it does not follow that there is no hope for us. We still can choose to be masters of our fate. To deny to any man the power to play God, it is not necessary to forbid him to experiment and explore. It is necessary only to make strict laws placing the application of his knowledge under public control.

Page 151:
Either we establish some kind of world government with a monopoly of military power. Or we achieve a stable division of the world into independent sovereign states, with the armed force of each state strictly confined to the mission of defending its own teritory. On humanistic and cultural as well as political grounds, I vastly prefer the second alternative.
Fortunately, the majority of people seem to share my preference. From the beginnings of human history until today, great empires have tended to disintegrate and world-government movements have failed to attract wide public.
If we consider world government either undesirable or unattainable, then the aim of our military and diplomatic efforts should be, not to abolish nationalism, but to guide the forces of nationalism into truly defensive channels. We should strive to build a peaceful and harmonious society of independent nations, in which each country maintains a citizen army as Switzerland does now, posing no threat to its neighbors but ready to fight like hell against anybody who comes with dreams of conquest.
