Just in case anyone missed it (and I think most did), there is little difference between the brother of Rahm Emanuel (Ezekial) and none other than Charles Robert Darwin.
I trust at this point most of you have seen the ravings of one of the lunatic healthcare advisors to Obama, the high potentate of all that is to be united. Ezekial Emanuel’s words could just as well have been spoken in the Third Reich and are as follows:
"When implemented, the Complete Lives system produces a priority curve on which individuals aged between roughly 15 and 40 years get the most substantial chance, whereas the youngest and oldest people get chances that are attenuated... The Complete Lives system justifies preference to younger people because of priority to the worst-off rather than instrumental value."
Justification for killing children under the guise of abortion started with something as humanistic as “only in cases of rape and incest” and landed squarely in the passenger seat of “a woman’s right to choose”. As a society we have been flirting with euthanasia for some odd years now. Well, as incrementalism would have it, it is now beating down our doors and trying to take control of our healthcare system.
Another of Obama’s close compatriots, Cass Sunstein had this to say about his relationship with Obama:
“Not so long ago, the phone rang in my office. It was Barack Obama. For more than a decade, Obama was my colleague at the University of Chicago Law School. He is also a friend. But since his election to the Senate, he does not exactly call every day.”
This is a quote from Mr. Sunstein regarding the topic of healthcare:
"I urge that the government should indeed focus on life-years rather than lives. A program that saves young people produces more welfare than one that saves old people."
As a general rule, those in politics and academia do not speak in a vacuum. It is only through years of programming that these people, including Obama develop a callousness that is unmatched in normal society. The teachings of public education and education in our major universities have centered on the idea that Darwin’s theories are correct even against human and scientific evidence to the contrary. If you want to know where these radical thinkers derived their ideas, you need look no further than the writings of one Charles Robert Darwin.
“With savages, the weak in body or mind are soon eliminated; and those that survive commonly exhibit a vigorous state of health. We civilized men, on the other hand, do our utmost to check the process of elimination; we build asylums for the imbecile, the maimed, and the sick; we institute poor-laws; and our medical men exert their utmost skill to save the life of every one up to the last moment. ..”
“Vaccination has preserved thousands who from a weak constitution would formerly have suc-cumbed to smallpox. Thus, the weak members of civilized societies propagate their kind. No one who has attended to the breeding of domestic animals will doubt that this must be highly injurious to the race of man....”
“ Excepting in the case of man himself, hardly anyone is so ignorant as to allow his worst animals to breed.”
“[Yet,] the aid which we feel impelled to give to the help¬less is mainly an incidental result of the [otherwise good] instinct of sympathy...”
“We must therefore bear the undoubtedly bad effects of the weak surviving and propagating their kind...”
Evolution… the survival of the fittest… we wonder why our children emerge from the higher institutions of learning and forsake our God, our morals and our teachings. They do so because the theory that is so pervasive in those institutions belittles our existence and lowers our relevance to that of a simple animal. Is humaneness in a society a trait to be honored? Yes. Are animals meant to be abused, neglected or treated dishonorably? No!
It’s perspective, man!!!
If there is no God and we are truly left to our own moral devices, then we are no more than animals. Our our worth is no greater than the sum of all our parts and any Evolutionist who claims the strength of their morality is being dishonest with themselves and dishonoring the very name of their evolutionary savior, Charles Darwin! Don’t tell me we are no greater than the animals that were placed on this earth to serve mankind and then brag to me that the strength of your convictions is greater than Christianity.
If you love The Origin of the Species, embrace it! Call Australian Aborigines, Blacks and Indians what your father called them… SAVAGES! Rave about the inferior female mind:
“. . . a higher eminence, in whatever he takes up, than can women—whether requiring deep thought, reason, or imagination, or merely the use of the senses and hands. If two lists were made of the most eminent men and women in poetry, painting, sculpture, music (inclusive of both composition and performance), history, science, and philosophy, with half-a-dozen names under each subject, the two lists would not bear comparison. We may also infer, from the law of the deviation from averages, so well illustrated by Mr. Galton, in his work on "Hereditary Genius" that . . . the average of mental power in man must be above that of women (Darwin, 1896:564).”
Be true to your roots as Evolutionists, supporting those like Emanuel and Sunstein who sound more like Darwin and Hitler than Jefferson or Reagan. You keep your faith and vote for healthcare reform: I’ll keep mine and fight Darwinism, Communism, Humanism, Socialism, Marxism and everything they stand for!
Or perhaps you could look into what it is Charles Darwin actually believed. Take note that your beliefs on the origin of the species are more in line with the Communist and Nazi than with the Christian. Don’t just listen to your mealy-mouthed professors who watered down the conclusions of a man possessed of the opinion that you came into this world from ancestors swinging from the trees. READ WHAT DARWIN ACTUALLY SAID. Then use the brain God put in your thick skulls to draw your own conclusions.
P.S. If you actually read Darwin’s writings and believe what the man said then, why do you consider yourself conservative? No, I really want an answer.
Question: Who said this?
"Man must realize that a fundamental law of necessity reigns throughout the whole realm of Nature and that his existence is subject to the law of eternal struggle and strife . . .where the strong are always the masters of the weak and where those subject to such laws must obey them or be destroyed, one general law leading to the advancement of all organic beings . . . let the strongest live and the weakest die."
Answer: Adolph Hitler (Now tell me how that differs from Darwin’s survival of the fittest mentality?)
There is only one real “science,” and then there is evolution, and its proponents. Never the two shall meet!
Cite the post # and the quote where I compare Darwin to Hitler and demonstrate your logic.
The Davidians were not a “denomination,” they were a congregation, well known in the Waco area for their strong Christian Testimony.
You should get educated before you make a bigger fool of yourself.
That’s a meaningless semantic difference! Like saying “That’s not a car, it’s an automobile”.
No, the real gem is that you can call the Branch Davidians in their entirety, pick whatever collective noun you want, Christians, but you can’t do the same for Catholics.
How many of your YEC buds feel the same way?
Referring to a previous post where one stated that it is the individual that determines whether that individual is a Christian. Wesley Clark considered himself a Christian. Ergo, Christians killing Christians?
“...well known in the Waco area for their strong Christian Testimony.”
They sure fooled a lot of the faithful, didn’t they!
I hear that Jim Jones’s Peoples Temple was well known in the Guyana area for their strong Christian Testimony as well.
I’m really not too far off by referring to the collection of FR YECs as a cult, am I?
See, you’ve made a fool of yourself again!
A congregation is one local church. The Davidians Denomination was Seventh Day Adventist.
Me: “Here we have an article posted by the writer that compares Darwin to Hitler and Obama and company and you are upset because we ask a few innocent questions.”
You: Cite the post # and the quote where I compare Darwin to Hitler and demonstrate your logic.
Cite the post # and the quote where ANYONE accused you of comparing Darwin to Hitler. Can you read?
You must have really bad hearing!
Do you have even the slightest idea why congressman Ryan went down to Jonestown? - They had a terrible reputation for abusing people. Jim Jones was a marxist just like Obama.
“See, you’ve made a fool of yourself again!”
I’ll take that as a compliment from a guy who says that Branch Davidians are Christians and Catholics are not.
Thank you. You’ve made my night.
I thought going to heaven was the key reward for beliving in Jesus Christ?
SDA Beliefs:
“Wholistic human nature (fundamental beliefs 7, 26)—Humans are an indivisible unity of body, mind and spirit. They do not possess an immortal soul, and death is an unconscious sleep (commonly known as “soul sleep”). (See also: Christian anthropology)
Conditional immortality (fundamental belief 27)—The wicked will not suffer eternal torment in hell, but instead will be permanently destroyed. (See: Conditional immortality, Annihilationism)
Your support of your fellow cultists, namely, the Branch Davidians, appears to have deadened your sarcasm receptors.
But again, thank you. You have truly shined a light on the beliefs and motivations behind YECs.
More of your lies. - I never said Catholics are not Christians. - You've proven why you're here; to divide and destroy.
You would not affirm that Catholics were Christians, but had no hesitation in doing so for the BDs.
More divide and conquer, huh?
Are the SDAs here to defend themselves from your attack?
He's right. In fact I have him on record saying that being Catholic does not exclude one from being a Christian.
What attack? I posted in good faith from their website. Please show me where I erred?
Your post above is an excellent example of "more divide and conquer' tactics. I did not attack the SDA but you falsely say I did in a blatant Alinski move.

Repeating the lie again?
