The central dogma



The people groaned because of their slavery and cried out for help. Their cry for rescue from slavery came up to God. And God heard their groaning, and God remembered. God saw the people, and God knew.

Then the LORD said, "I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in bondage to scientism and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters. I know their sufferings, and I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the scientific dogmatists and metaphysical-methodological naturalists, and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, a land flowing with reason and intelligence. And now, behold, the cry of my people has come to me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the secularists oppress them. Come, I will send you to the President of the United States that you may bring my people out of captivity."

So the LORD said to William Dembski and Stephen Meyer, "Go in, tell the President to free my people from the tyranny of the scientific establishment." Dembski and Meyer did as the LORD commanded. In the sight of the President and in the sight of his cabinet he lifted up reason and evidence and sound argumentation and struck down the modern evolutionary synthesis, and the theory turned into nonsense. And the evolutionary paradigm died, and stank, so that the New Atheists could not drink from its source. There was confusion throughout all the land of secular science. But the secular scientists did the same by their secret arts by adding facilitated variation, Gaia hypothesis, macromutation theory, natural genetic engineering, neo-Lamarckian inheritance, ontogenic evolution, phyletic gradualism, punctuated equilibrium, punctuated gradualism, the selfish gene, symbiogenesis, etc. So the President's heart remained hardened, and he would not listen to them, as the LORD had said. The President turned and went into his house, and he did not take even this to heart. And all the evolutionary biological research assistants, doctoral candidates, postdocs, and assistant professors hoping for tenure looked for truth to drink, for they could not drink from these vague half-truths.

Then the LORD said to Dembski and Meyer, "Go in to the President and say to him, 'Thus says the LORD, Let my people go, that they may come and reason with me. But if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your country with scientific dissent.'" And the LORD said to Dembski, "Say to Meyer, 'Stretch out your hand with your staff over the universities, over the laboratories and over the research centers, and make scientific dissent come up on the land!'" So Meyer stretched out his hand over ivory tower institutions, and scientific dissent came up and covered the land. But the secular scientists did the same by their secret arts and made scientific dissent come up on the land. Richard Dawkins, Henry Gee, Stephen Jay Gould, Marc Kirschner, Richard Lewontin, Lynn Margulis, Ernst Mayr, James Shapiro, John Maynard Smith, E.O. Wilson, Carl Woese, Lewis Wolpert, etc. created various modifications and theories within theories of evolution. And the President hardened his heart and would not listen to Dembski and Meyer.

Then the LORD said to Dembski, "Say to Meyer, 'Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the earth, so that life might come forth.'" And they did so. Meyer stretched out his hand with his staff and struck the dust of the earth, and life came forth. All the dust of the earth became life in all the land. The secular scientists called upon their secret arts including the clay model, the Miller-Urey experiment, Mycoplasma laboratorium, the PAH and RNA world hypotheses, and panspermia. The secular scientists tried by their secret arts to produce life, but they could not. Then the secular scientists said to the President, "This is the finger of God." But the President's heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, as the LORD had said.

Now the secular scientists were more crafty than any other scientist in the field of neo-Darwinian evolution. They said to some Christians, "Did God actually say, 'You shall not believe evolution is true'?" And these Christians said to the secular scientists, "We may believe evolution is true, but God said, 'You shall not believe evolution is true if you want to be rational, neither shall you so much as think about evolution, lest you become irrational.'" But the secular scientists told these Christians, "You will not surely become irrational if you so much as think about evolution. For God knows that when you think about it your eyes will be opened, and you will see the panoply of life, the universe, and everything like God." So when these Christians saw that there was nothing wrong with thinking about evolution, that it was fascinating, that there were endless forms most beautiful, and it made them feel as if they were in step with modern academic and scientific opinion, they took hold of evolution and fed deeply upon it. Then their eyes were opened, and they knew that they were theistic evolutionists. And they joined hands with like-minded scholars including theologians who denied the historical Adam and made themselves an organization called BioLogos.

White flight



Many whites subscribe to the right of return for the purported Palestinian "people" (PPP).

In the last century, many whites were indirectly or directly pressured to leave urban areas for suburbia as well as elsewhere. This phenomenon was known as "white flight." Just as the PPP had to flee their lands and properties due to war and other factors, these whites had to do the same in the face of "war" and other factors as well. Sure, this latter meaning of war isn't necessarily identical to the former meaning of war. But the Cold War wasn't identical to World War II. Nevertheless both were very real wars.

It's possible there are now thousands if not millions of descendants of whites who are unaware of their status as internally displaced persons. But as internally displaced persons, these whites should realize they have been historically dispossessed of their lands and properties. They should realize it was land which rightfully belonged to their parents, grandparents, and so on.

Hence, I think it'd be a good idea to form an organization to address this terrible and terribly overlooked travesty. It certainly doesn't receive enough attention in the public eye. I recommend we call it the White Liberation Organization (WLO).

We should support whites who wish to exercise their Right of Return to their ancestral lands, to these urban areas.

Furthermore, we should put pressure on the minorities and their descendants who dispossessed the whites of their lands to move out.

Sure, we might pretend to accept compromise for the time being, but our end game is to reclaim these urban areas in their totality for dispossessed whites. In the meantime we should advocate a two city solution or a multiple city solution in mixed minority areas. One city for whites, one city for African Americans, one city for Hispanic Americans, one city for Asian Americans, and so forth.

And we should lobby to receive greater recognition from the United Urbanites' General Assembly including those urbanites who were themselves unaffected by white flight.

But let's keep in mind we want nothing less than all urban lands and properties in the hands of dispossessed whites as well as the expulsion of those minorities and their descendants who pushed out whites. This must be the final solution.
