The murderous secular humanist religions of Communism and Nazism were spawned by the anti-God/utopian tradition of Revolutionary France. The Black Book of Communism, an 800-page compendium of the crimes of Communist regimes worldwide, graphically details the terror, torture, man-made famine, mass deportations, starvation, and massacres undertaken on behalf of revolutionary utopian ideals. The reality of Communism, which claimed to be an emissary of the Enlightenment, of universal brotherhood, and of happiness for all as envisioned by Gracchus Babeuf, turned out to be not only a sadistic engine for unimaginable evil but also the creator of hells on earth.
The book’s authors point to Communism’s “biological and zoological strain of thinking” as the engine of evil that proved itself to be a most effective means of denying the humanity of Communism’s millions of victims. “This strain of thinking,” explained Stephane Courtois, “is why so many of the crimes of Communism were crimes against humanity, and how Marxist-Leninist ideology managed to justify these crimes to its followers.” (The Black Book of Communism; p. 751)
Biocentrism: the Biological/Zoological Strain of Thinking
Biocentrism or ecocentrism, terms synonymous with today’s sustainable development/global warming crowd, is the “biological and zoological strain of thinking” in disguise. Biocentrism is antithetical to America’s Judeo-Christian worldview in that it not only reduces man to a soulless ape, but makes his life less valuable than cockroaches, earthworms, spotted owls, trash fish, grizzlies, alligators, and wolves. Those who trace the genesis of ideas, such as Donald Worster, point to Charles Darwin as the most important spokesman for the biocentrism attitude. In short, Darwin’s theory of evolution, the malignant heart of biocentrism, leads to contempt and even hatred towards humanity.
“Human beings, as a species, have no more value than slugs.” (Earth First! Journal editor, John Daily)
“To feed a starving child is to exacerbate the world population problem.” (Yale professor Lamont Cole)
Biocentrism and its morally-warped system of philosophy and morality thrive right here in America. Communism (multiculturalism/Cultural Marxism) and its diabolical mother, Secular Humanism, plus its twisted sisters, Postmodernism and Cosmic Humanism (New Age global warming crowd) are now the predominant way of thinking in most of America’s power centers. At the heart of each of these systems beats the black heart of Darwinian biocentrism.
Dr. James Dobson notes, “The Secular Humanist system…has outstripped Judeo-Christian precepts in the universities…judiciary…federal bureaucracy, in business, medicine, law, psychology, sociology…arts, in many public schools, and to be sure, in the halls of Congress.” (Understanding the Times; David A. Noebel; p. 7)
Every day in our public schools, America’s children are ‘animalized’ through the teaching of Darwinian evolutionary propaganda. Though some are able to resist this dehumanizing spiritual attack, many more are not. Of those who cannot, some will go on to join the ranks of anti-God, anti-America, anti-human revolutionaries, thereby becoming accomplices in the destruction of the nation that nourishes and protects them. Others will become practical atheists who, having no faith in God, will not fight for a nation founded on Judeo-Christian precepts. From a secular humanist point of view, these are desired outcomes because:
“The only hope for the world is to make sure there is not another United States.” ….Michael Oppenheimer, Environmental Defense Fund
These things are occurring because for nearly two centuries Secular Humanists and revolutionary fellow travelers---having infiltrated and taken control of this nation’s education establishment--- incrementally replaced our nation’s founding Judeo-Christian moral and philosophical worldview and history with a revolutionary catechism. The effect of this has been to not only undermine and delegitimize our nation’s traditional ideas and institutions but to also reverse and upend the natural order, all of which is leading to the destruction of our civilization.
“To destroy a people, you must first sever their roots.” …Alexander Solzhenitsyn
Teaching to this nation’s future leaders, jurists, lawmakers, government workers, teachers, etc., the ideas and philosophies of men and women such as Comte, Marx, Malthus, de Sade, Rousseau, Reich, Freud, Darwin, Nietzsche, Lenin, Stalin, Heidegger, Adorno, Lukacs, Gramsci, Sanger, Marcuse, Dewey, Kinsey, Derrida, and Foucault, for example, has unleashed a devastating wave of corruption, debauchery, political correctness, chaos, pathologies, crime, narcissism, raw power-grabbing, and abandonment of allegiance towards these United States of America, all of which paves the way for the rise of a socialistic, sustainably-developed New World Order.
An alternative power structure necessary for deconstructing our Constitutional Republic has been created. This ‘shadow government’ of interlocking relationships and mutually reinforcing agendas consists of, for example, the New Left, the Democratic machine, environmental organizations such as The Nature Conservancy, Sierra Club, Audubon Society, and The Wildlife Federation; big money foundations, such as Heinz, Mott, Blue Moon, Turner, and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund; federal and state fish and wildlife departments, and of course, the United Nations. In hot pursuit of their North American Union project, the power and money hungry Transnational Right aids and abets the destructive process.
With the exception of the dissident voices of “intolerant, racist/haters” like Christians and other true Conservatives, the majority of Americans have passively acquiesced to being told that they are mindless, soulless apes. They also allow their children to be animalized and even told that as apes, they share a common heritage with earthworms. In light of this, the following question bears asking: Why should anyone, let alone the narcissists who are busily deconstructing our nation, respect and serve such a people?
If Antonio Gramsci were alive, he would be gratified by how well his plan for the slow and gradual destruction of America from the inside is working.
Agenda 21: The Utopian Fantasy
Agenda 21 was adopted at the 1992 UN Conference in Rio de Janeiro. This 300-page document contains 40 chapters loaded with recommendations to micro-manage virtually every facet of human existence. Agenda 21 is not a treaty but a “soft-law” policy document that does not require Senate ratification. Some of the key players involved in its production and adoption are Al Gore, Ted Turner, and Maurice Strong. President George HW Bush signed it and President Clinton issued Executive Order No. 12852, which created the President’s Council on Sustainable Development.
In his, “Sustainable Development: Transforming America,” Henry Lamb provides us with a vignette of the emerging utopia. Speaking only of America, he says:
“Half the land area of the entire country will be designated ‘wilderness areas’ where only wildlife managers and researchers will be allowed. These areas will be interconnected by ‘corridors of wilderness’ to allow migration of wildlife…Wolves will be as plentiful in Virginia and Pennsylvania as they are now in Idaho and Montana. Panthers and alligators will roam freely from the Everglades to the Okefenokee and beyond…Transportation between sustainable communities (islands of human habitation)…will be primarily by light rail systems…highways that remain will be super transport corridors, such as the “Trans-Texas Corridor” now being designed…” (Eco-logic Special Report, Dec. 1, 2005)
Property Acquisition Schemes
“The moment the idea is admitted into society, that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence. If “Thou shalt not covet,” and “Thou shalt not steal,” were not commandments of Heaven, they must be made inviolable precepts in every society, before it can be civilized or made free.” …John Adams (The Works of John Adams, Second President of the United States; Charles Francis Adams, editor, Vol. VI, p.9)
The Wildlands Project, written by Dr. Reed Noss, who is under contract with The Nature Conservancy, is one such scheme. It has never been debated or voted on by elected officials. Nevertheless, it is being implemented through backdoor initiatives. Through its use thus far, 106.5 million acres have been acquire by being designated as wilderness since 1964.
Henry Lamb reports that not only is eminent domain a key ‘land-taking’ strategy but:
“In the West, the Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management are driving ranchers off the land by reducing grazing allotments…people who have recreational cabins on federal land, are discovering that their permits are not being renewed. The Fish and Wildlife Service is forcing people off their land through designations of “wetlands,” and “critical habitat”…” (ibid)
The biocentric Endangered Species Act makes use of spotted owls, plants, trash fish, alligators, grizzlies, wolves, and more to run people off their land. Within the space of one week last year (2006), three young Florida women were attacked by so-called ‘managed’ alligators. All three women died gruesome deaths. ‘Managed’ wolves are likewise useful for terrorizing landowners, especially when said owners have been criminally deprived of the basic right of self-defense.
An article entitled, “Wolf Management Program Actions Show Children are Expendable,” in the wolfcrossing blog speaks of the outrage, despair, and sense of helplessness felt by landowners hand-cuffed by politically correct Dept.of Fish and Wildlife regulations that elevate the welfare of wolves over that of people, thus leaving them helpless in the face of marauding wolves.
Sister Flash writes, “Recently a little boy was encircled by Mexican wolves…the Luna pack circled him for more than five minutes.” One month later, wrote Sister Flash, the pack attacked a family dog as it followed its 8-year old owner (a girl) who was going to feed the families horses. Thirty days later, “the (same) little girl’s beautiful black quarter horse (Six) was trapped in his corral and brutally slaughtered by the same wolves…(More recently) a small dog named Maggie was attacked protecting her child’s play yard, right off the front porch…” (http://wolfcrossing.org/blog/?p=235)
Not only have the wolves not been removed, but the notorious alpha male---who had been relocated from Arizona to New Mexico for hanging around a schoolyard in Blue, AZ---has been declared “no longer a threat,” by the complicit New Mexico Department of Game and Fish.
“In the beginning, God created…” is the core presupposition on which Western civilization advanced for more than two millennia. Its highest expression is in our Declaration of Independence, where it serves as the ultimate source of our unalienable rights. This presupposition is condemned by most western policy makers and by the UN, all of whom prefer the biocentric view:
“Human happiness, and…fecundity, are not as important as a wild and healthy planet…until such time as homo sapiens should decide to rejoin nature, some of us can only hope for the right virus to come along.”…David Graber, research biologist with the National Park Service
“…Christianity (has set) humans apart from nature (and) converted the world into a warehouse of commodities for human enjoyment.” (Global Biodiversity Assessment, p. 787)
In a chilling portent of things to come, M. Macnab, a respondent to the wolfcrossing article, spoke to all Americans when she warned:
“We here in ‘wolf recovery territory’ know all to well what horrible encroachments on our rights can occur when state and federal officials violate their true purpose. Life without basic rights to protecting one’s family and property is not at all pleasant and this careless and lawless disregard for others welfare will, if not checked…become the standard for all.” (ibid)

YYZ—I think the author’s tinfoil cap is a little too tight and restricting the blood flow to their brain
According to EO Wilson, the human ape lacks personhood, self, mind, reason, and free will. Should he believe he is experiencing, let’s say..’self’...he’s merely having an epiphenomenon, or illusion. By your ardent defense of some of the world’s most notorious intellectual morons, one must assume you believe yourself to be a human ape. If so, why ought anyone bother listening to a human ape who believes he knows what he’s saying but is in fact merely having an epiphenomenon?
Common sense. Many religious people have a doctrinal beef with Darwin, and will this ascribe to his work any horror they can make a tenuous connection with.
“By your ardent defense of some of the world’s most notorious intellectual morons”
Pointing out that the author has written a wide-ranging paranoid screen against a whole variety of bad people and ideas is hardly eqivalent to defending those people and ideas. But then, that’s about the level of argument I would expect of someone who wrote (or thought it worth posting) an article liek this.
FWIW, I DO believe that humans are naked apes. Ones with an ability for conciousness, introspection, logic, and culture, that makes us unique amongst all the other animals. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
So if we reject `natural law’, for example: the `God-given’ right to defend one’s self and others as codified in positive law and determine that such defense should be left to the police and military, then we can repeal (at least) the 2nd Amendment, because people wiser than ourselves have decided these things for us lesser apes;
at the same time, some apes are without doubt more equal than others so positive law reflecting natural law would have to be amended to allow political, economic and other elites to, say, shoot one of us if we refused to step aside on the sidewalk, and so forth and so on.
Bump for those who get it.
YYZ—FWIW, I DO believe that humans are naked apes. Ones with an ability for conciousness, introspection, logic, and culture, that makes us unique amongst all the other animals. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
Too bad what you believe you “think,” for according to your scientistic apemasters, you’re experiencing an epiphenomenon. Consciousness, introspection, and logic,are Metaphysical (supernatural) abilities. The fact is, by your own admittance, you’re just a trousered ape and you have NO metaphysical abilities——including the Laws of Logic, as they too, are immaterial (metaphysical).
antiRep—Common sense. Many religious people have a doctrinal beef with Darwin, and will this ascribe to his work any horror they can make a tenuous connection with.
Question: are you a “trousered ape”? If so, you possess no ‘common sense” for in order to possess these abilities, one must also possess the supernatural (immaterial) abilities of memory, reason, logic. Trousered apes possess NO supernatural capabilities.
Bump for those who want a good laugh.
...you just can't make this stuff up...
See? Evolution in your view usurps your worldview that we must be special as created by God. If not then we're no better than the other animals. Many higher animals have memory and reason. We just have it at a much higher level, and that makes us special, better.
I am at the top of the food chain, and I intend to stay where I was put.
Yeah, whatever. I have no desire to enter into a debate with you on your terms, and it looks like no-one else here does, either. And don’t try to tell me what I know, think, or believe.
Another really dumb thing is that he includes Malthus, an Anglican parson. Communism's only involvement there is that Marx and Engels disagreed with Malthus, thinking capitalism was the problem instead of overpopulation.
Malthus, the Anglican parson atheist. Ooookay. Darwin also wasn't an atheist when he wrote Origin of Species, believing God was the first cause of what he saw.
This time she skewers the "worship the earth and get rid of the humans" arm of those who want to control the entire world and create a utopia (for them). I used to have some sympathy for environmentalism - I also decry the destruction and pollution of farmland, wildland, and waters - but these people don't really care about these things. There are of course duped ones who are sentimentalists and whose ignorance is taken advantage of by the enviro-nazis. But the big honchos are using environmentalism as a ploy for one world government. If they cared so much about pollution, why don't they go after Red China??
And if they were so full of love for all nature, why do they hate human beings so much?
Only someone who understands that God is the owner of everything already (since He created it!), and everything should be respected and used properly since it all belongs to Him. The whole argument of enviro-wackos is this (aside from their desire to get rid of people and control the entire planet):
"We want a nice clean wild land so when we go rock climbing we don't have a lot of other people on the rock face. And we don't like seeing trailer parks with low life people while we're driving out in the country. This world belongs to us and we want it for our enjoyment, and there's too many (other) people in the way."
Enviro-nazis' main solution is to eliminate the "excess" humans.

Thought you might enjoy this article and the discussion. A little diversion, but quite related, IMO.
Darwin lost his faith later in life. Don’t know exactly when, but as he developed his theory, his faith in God disappeared.
