One of the most distinctive features of the expiring century is the increasing vehemence of the opposition between science and Christianity. That is both natural and inevitable.

Not so. It was natural that the two co-existed for a long time, as evidenced by many of the great scientists that proceeded him.

The current vehemence of the opposition between science and Christianity is unnatural and contrived. It was contrived by those who have a bone to pick with God and found a useful weapon to use in their desire to destroy Christianity.

And some are still falling for it.

What’s funny about the modern anti-Christian left is that they think they are SO enlightened in their “reason”...

yet their arguments have been around for centuries, and are nothing new, nothing enlightened.

For proof, in Pilgrim’s Progress, Bunyan states exactly what we are seeing here - ridicule of believers because of their “ignorance and want of understanding in all natural science”. This was written 3 1/2 centuries ago.

Doesn't all the stuff in this insane Haeckel rant (the whole book is like this) sound familiar? I mean, doesn't Haeckel sound exactly like some of the evolution-talking atheists that post on forums?

Bingo !
