I have been reflecting recently on the world's emerging religion called Science. Now I'm not talking about real Science, those hard working men and women in Labs all around the world who are seeking to find cures for Cancer and developing smarted technology. I'm talking about those who use a cloak of Science to impose their perverted view of the world on the rest of us.
I suppose it's always been around, the Apostle Paul warned Timothy about it 2000 years ago. 'O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:' But it's seem to have had a resurgence since the 1859 publication of Darwin's 'Origin of the Species'.
If you really analysis what the preachers of Scientism teach you will find all the major components of a religion.
ORIGINS
The Bible starts with 'In the beginning God' but Scientism starts with a Big Bang.
GOD
The Bible reveals the Lord Jehovah but Scientism has embraced the pagan Gaia mother earth god. This is the main motivation of extreme environmentalists. They believe that cutting down a tree is hurting Gaia.
SATAN
The Infernal enemy of the Christian God is a wicked enemy called Satan. In the view of Scientism the wicked enemy is Western Capitalism whose seeking to create wealth is a danger to their precious Gaia.
HELL
Unlike the hell of the Bible the hell of Scientism is not a burning lake of fire, instead they believe in a burning earth. Global warming, which isn't in fact really happening, is painted as a hell that we are all headed for because of our supposed poor stewardship of the earth.
HEAVEN
The religion of Scientism also has it's heaven. It is not the eternal abode of God as revealed in the Bible but instead it is some sort of a Nirvana, right her on earth, where we all have to live happily in some sort of a socialist collective where we do exactly what our totalitarian masters tell us.
So many people are sucked in by this religion because it has an excellent propaganda campaign helped in no small part by the BBC. The mainstream media propagates it's doctrines as truth even though they are not proven. Every child in the UK believes that the earth is getting warmer and as a consequence the world is in big trouble. The truth of course is much less exciting, the worlds temperature has not risen for many tears. To combat this reality Scientism has subtly changed the name of the doctrine from Global Warming to Climate Change. The truth is the climate has always changed over the centuries and always will but one thing is for sure...

Peer Pressure
It's a while since I have posted to this blogspot but I feel so strongly about what I witnessed on TV this week that I have to speak out.
I am referring to BBC Question Time aired on Thursday the 27th March 2014. As is often the case on BBC output the subject of 'gay marriage' reared it's head through a question from the floor. As far as I could see there were only 3 people in the room who were prepared to voice their opposition to 'gay marriage', they were, Roger Helmer a panel member representing the United Kingdom Independence Party and two ladies in the audience.
Every time these three individuals attempted to articulate their positions there was booing, hissing, gasps of horror and general ridicule aimed in their direction. Now here is my problem with the whole thing, BBCQT audiences appear to be regularly overloaded with lefties and liberals who snoot and ridicule people who dare to express a more conservative point of view.
The BBC as a public service broadcaster has the responsibility to provide a forum where all sorts of political, religious and social views can be expressed in a balanced way. They as a corporation will argue that they have done so by inviting right of centre politicians onto the panel and by allowing them and sympathetic members of the audience to make their points, but that is where the balance ends.
The make up of of BBCQT audiences are far from balanced. The room always seems to be stuffed with militant lefties who do what militant lefties do best and that is bully. Lefties never seem to be able to make coherent arguments to defend their position, they simply insult people they don't agree with by accusing them of being imperialists, racists or homophobes.
As a Christian my opposition to homosexuality is not based on a hatred for a certain section of the population but on a love for the Word of God and His commandments. Sadly in the face of such militant opposition many Christians are allowing themselves to be put under such pressure to such an extent that they are trying to reinterpret God's Word on this subject in light of relative social conditions. We must never allow ourselves to be bullied away from standing up for God's truth.
The leftie tactic of stuffing question time audiences is designed to make you think that people who think like you are vastly outnumbered in society. Don't you believe it, there are millions in the UK opposed to 'gay marriage' and do you know what, even if we were only a handful it wouldn't matter they would still be wrong. God's truth is not determined by a democratic vote, it is determined by His Word.
