President Obama entered office promising to restore the sanctity of science. Instead, a fresh war against science, statistics, and reason is being waged on behalf of politically correct politics.
After the Sandy Hook tragedy, the president attempted to convert national outrage into new gun-control legislation. Specifically, he focused on curtailing semi-automatic assault rifles. But there is no statistical evidence that such guns semi-automatic rifles that have mostly cosmetic changes to appear similar to banned military-style fully automatic assault weapons lead to increased gun-related crimes.

And I can't help but wonder if dimensionality has anything to do with this prophecy [Revelation
6:14].... What a tantalizing conjecture, dearest sister in Christ!

Now either God spoke and revealed Himself to man in Jesus Christ or He didn't. If He did then we know that He spoke creation into existence in six days. All of the early Church Fathers who wrote on Genesis expounded the literal six day creation. For instance, St. Cyril of Alexandria argued that higher theological, spiritual meaning is founded upon humble, simple faith in the literal and historic meaning of Genesis and one cannot apprehend rightly the Scriptures without believing in the historical reality of the events and people they describe. (Genesis, Creation, and Early Man, Fr. Seraphim Rose, p. 40) Is this your view, or only the view of the author?

It is the view of Church Fathers whose minds were unpolluted by occult Kabbala, Hermetic alchemy, Eastern mysticism and so-called “higher criticism,” the work of occult Gnostics from the time of the Renaissance.
