Plenty of cults exist - every cult has its 'religious dogma', its idols, its 'prophets', its 'science', its 'proof' and its intolerant liturgy of demands. Cults everywhere: Corona, 'The Science' or Scientism, Islam, the State, the cult of Gender Fascism, Marxism, Darwin and Evolution, Globaloneywarming, Changing Climate, Abortion...
Tempus Fugit Memento Mori - Time Flies Remember Death
Darwin's “survival of the fittest” ideas powerfully shaped the belief systems of mass murderers like Hitler, Trotsky, and Stalin.
Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) endorsed a program in Germany to breed a superior race. The scheme was based on a horrific evolutionary theory called “eugenics” that was founded by Charles Darwin's cousin, Francis Galton. The idea of eugenics was to improve humanity using principles promoted in the theory of evolution.
The idea was simple: partition the human race into two groups, the “fit” and the “unfit.” Eugenics seemed to be a way to make sure the “fit” had children and the “unfit” did not. In Germany, the leaders of the eugenics movement got monstrous laws enacted that allowed sterilization of people regarded as “unfit,” and restriction of immigrants who were supposedly “biologically inferior.” (The United States and other countries enacted similar laws, but the Nazis took it to the extreme when Jews, blacks, and others were ruthlessly murdered to prop up the theory.)
The German people were being seduced to accept that they could be the “master race” by exterminating the “unfit.” If evolution was right, they reasoned, and “survival of the fittest” was merely a positive, evolutionary process, then what could be wrong with hastening the deaths of the “unfit”?
Eugenics could only become popular because the theory of evolution seemed to have quashed the need for the sovereign Creator, God, who had given humankind absolute moral laws. When you do away with moral laws, outrageous racism and crimes like compulsory sterilization, Hitler's death camps, and mass murder on a maniacal scale can no longer be said to be evil.
He confiscated food from peasants, brutalized the Ukrainian army of insurgent peasants, and killed its guerrilla leader, N. I. Makhno.
He inflicted torture and violence against Christians, mercilessly trashed churches, and led the Society of the Godless to get rid of religion.
Trotsky was mesmerized by Charles Darwin's Origin of Species. He said: “Darwin stood for me like a mighty doorkeeper at the entrance to the temple of the universe.” He said that Darwin's ideas “intoxicated” him. And he could not understand in the slightest how belief in God could find room in the same head as belief in Darwin's ideas.
Like Hitler, Trotsky was a tyrant who saw Darwin's theory of evolution as scientific justification for dismissing God's moral laws. He clearly saw that the two ideas, God and evolution, were totally incompatible. His atrocities were consistent with this belief, for when you do away with the idea of the God who created you and who has given instructions for the right way to live, there is no reason to avoid despicably violent crimes. Even if this means murdering everyone who disagrees with you.
Russian dictator and revolutionist, Joseph Stalin (1879-1953), was studying at Tiflis Theological Seminary when he started to read the works of Charles Darwin. One of his friends later said in a book that when Stalin read Darwin, he became an atheist. The theological seminary expelled Stalin at the age of 19 because of his revolutionary connections.
Nazism, Communism, Medical Fascism or ‘Ronaism’, is of course the inevitable output of ‘Enlightenment’-materialist theology. The Enlighteners and their offspring, Lenin, Stalin, Trotsky, Hitler, the current corpus of medical Fascists, is reductionist. They reduce human life to symbols and numbers, 20.000 genes, a trillion cells, a GDP output, a consumer of x litres per annum of carbon energy, a tax number contributing y dollars per annum in taxes, a potential virus host and spreader who could infect and kill z number of others and is thus a risk that must be neutralised if not eliminated, given that Gaia can only house a certain number of the animal named human.
For the Enlighteners killing millions means nothing. Thieving, murdering, plundering, debasing and humiliating humans is of no importance. Since no higher order exists, since truth is optional, since life is simply random molecules and chance; no framework other than that power and might should exist, using ‘reason’ or ‘science’, or ‘dialecticism’, or ‘evolution’, or ‘phase theories’, or ‘a virus crisis’ as the theological principle and absolute. Absolutism is the natural outcome of the Enlightenment.
The Atheist Creed
We believe in one God the Father named Time,
and in almighty Random Chance,
Maker of all that is, seen and unseen.
We believe in one Lord Mutation,
the only Son of Time,
eternally begotten of the Father,
Design from Chaos, Life from non-Life,
complex information from nothing,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father.
Through him all things were made.
For us pond scum and for our salvation
Mutation came down from Darwin's heaven:
and by the Holy Spirit of Time was incarnate
in the Virgin Lucy, a 3 foot high bonobo chimp,
who made man.
For the sake of evolving chimps, mutation was crucified under genetic laws;
he suffered death and was buried, and has stopped evolving
Yet every day he rises again
in accordance with the Evolutionary Scriptures;
and he has ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
We believe Mutation will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom of turning Tulips into Teachers will have no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit of Time, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.
Who with the Father and the Son must be adored and glorified as science.
Time has spoken through the Evolutionary Prophets.
We believe in one holy Atheist and random chance, Church.
We acknowledge one endless Evolutionary propaganda for the forgiveness of sins
And we look for the resurrection of positive mutations,
and the natural selection of the world to come.
Amen.
In actual fact I would say atheism is a cult, which is quite different than a religion.
A previous review of Jinn's book against the mental vagaries and illusions of Atheism is here. Jinn is an atheist apostate, who underwent remediation treatment including reality, science, common-sense and morality, thus rejecting his former cult dogma. Some key insights into the mental-derangement-syndrome of atheism include:
1. Atheism negates science:
“If science works, then the universe works. If the universe works, then it means that is was made; because what is not made, cannot possibly “work”. In short; science is exactly the kind of exercise one would expect to be able to engage in if indeed we lived in a world that was created by someone/something enormously intelligent and powerful.”
2. The Big Bang puzzles atheists:
“Perhaps the best argument in favor of the thesis that the Big Bang supports theism is the obvious unease with which it is greeted by atheist physicists. At times this has led to scientific ideas, such as continuous creation or an oscillating universe, being advanced with a tenacity which so exceeds their intrinsic worth that one can only suspect the operation of psychological forces lying very much deeper than the usual academic desire of a theorist to support his/her theory.”
[note: there are plenty of issues with the Big Bang, and some atheists contend that the BB was created ex-nihilo thereby 'proving' evolution].
3. Law of entropy puzzles atheists:
“If our universe is using up its energy, then it cannot be true that it is eternal in the past. If it were, then the heat death would have already happened. This is one of the reasons why an eternal series of past events is so unlikely.”
4. Chaos and chance don't lead to much:
“...probability of our universe existing as a result of either chance or necessity is miniscule, as is the possibility of a past-eternal spacetime and an ex nihilo spontaneous self-creation.”
5. Atheists fail philosophy:
“...number of reasons why scientism is unrealistic, chief among which is the immediate fact that it is self-refuting. Consider the following statements: “Anything science cannot confirm is meaningless” Science cannot confirm that statement.”
6. Atheism is determinism, which denies free-will [and reason, and faith, and thinking....]
“...determinism is the denial of the human capacity for free will. Free will is incompatible with atheism for the reason that non-deterministic action would imply that there is something primary over matter and energy.”
7. Atheism and Darwinism lead to Nazi dogma:
“...irony of Nietzsche’s atheistic nihilism, combined with his branch-philosophy of the Übermensch and the will to power is that it would go on to become a self-fulfilling prophecy, forming the essential foundations of the single bloodiest era in all of human history, personified by the bane of Nazism.”
Atheists must be proud. Their cult denies science, reason, evidence, facts, metaphysics, free-will, morality, spirituality, material understanding and leads to the evolutionary-premised cults of Fascism and its twin, Communism.
Nice.
