But how can an eternal God ever be "out of date?"
Answer: The eternal God isn't, and can't be, "out of date." To say otherwise is to claim that there is no pervasive, lasting order in the universe. In this scenario, the universe reduces to mindless, meaningless causal collisions of near-neighbor massive bodies. But if that's "all there is," then nothing has meaning in the universe, nor in human experience.
Of course, this is precisely what Darwin's theory teaches: Everything that occurs in life, in the universe, is a random walk to nowhere.
BTW, it's not only theologians who object to what Darwin has wrought in the human mindscape. Ludwig von Bertalanffy, eminent mathematician and pioneer of complex systems theory, was deploring the social/cultural effects of Darwin's theory back in the 1930s. He saw very clearly that Darwin's theory was a solvent designed to dissolve the very basis of civil society itself.
I would only wish to add here, that men who hate their fellow human beings are the very ones who have first rejected God.
Why would anybody want to reject God?
"If God does not exist, then everything is permitted." These words, attributed to Ivan Karamazov (by his brother Dmitri, in Book Four, Chapter 12 of Dostoevsky's magisterial The Brothers Karamazov) tell you everything you need to know about the human revolt against any sense of limit, or restraint, in human nature itself.
Ivan was pointing out that (in his imagination at least) God stands between us and the fulfillment of our (basest) wishes. So, what do you do??? How do you remove this irritating "pebble" from one's shoe? Why, you just imaginatively "kill off God" and consequently be done with any sense of any Limit appertaining to human beings.
To put it into other words, such a man is jealous of God, and would be God himself.
But such a man is also, thereby, a FOOL, a "Nabal," a man who "says in his heart: There is no God." And thus cuts off the very existential branch on which he himself sits, on which his very life depends.
It seems the inmates have acquired the keys to the lunatic asylum. That doesn't mean the entire American populace is insane. It just means the fictive "majority" of the last election IS.
The minority — people who see, for instance, that the Declaration of Independence is the quintessential organic law of the United States later translated into the text of the constitutional law of the United States — continues to hold the vision and intent of the Framers close to heart.
However, it appears we are "outnumbered" by an insatiable mob-majority of morons who believe that the money necessary to preserve their "lifestyle" can be printed out of thin air, or taken away from the productive members of society ad infinitum — and there is absolutely NO downside to such an expectation.
To put it mildly, these people haven't got a clue about how the world — and economic systems — work. I gather they will have to learn the hard way. I'm sure they won't like the lessons learned thataway.
But they voted the way they did. They deserve to know exactly WHAT they voted for.
And so I hope the Pubbies will just get out of their way. Let them have what they said they want. Then maybe they'll find out that Captain Zero has been lying to them, too.
Stay tuned! We absolutely do live in "interesting times!"
The american people generally have been “bewitched”..
“Drugged” by some ideological Alice in Wonderland obsession..
-OR- simply been out-smarted by a Marxian scam....
The scourging of the gene pool seems to have begun..
Where it will end is the things “dreams are not made of”..
Reality is very very real..
