Materialism’s Worldview of Authority:

Materialists see several assumed “axioms” as being the chief cornerstones of authority in their faith.  Each of these Axioms is a religion in its own right, but they are also doctrines in many cults.

First, they assume Rationalism, which becomes the foundation for making other rationalizations, establishing other axioms, and speculating on whatever Materialists desire to be the truth.

From this basis of Rationalism, they assume Materialism (there is no God and there is nothing spiritual including the spirit of man), Naturalism (there is no spiritual explanation for anything), and Uniformitarianism (all things continue from the beginning as they are now; there was no creation and no flood, and there will be no coming judgment).

Since Evolutionism collapsed under Modernism in the seventies, Materialists have increasingly been forced to embrace the dogmas of Post Modernism.  Post Modernism allows Materialists to live with the fact that they cannot find a set of assumptions under which Evolution would be possible.  With Post Modernism’s primary concept (of Relativism there is no truth and there is nothing wrong with deception because there is no lie), Materialists can live with their “no God” dogma in spite of the obvious foolishness of this dogma.  In addition, Post Modernism’s compartmentalization-of-thought helps Materialists to deal with their own inconsistency of thought, an inconsistency that is required if one is  to believe in Materialistic dogmas.

Materialists look to other Materialists as authoritative: Horace Mann, John Dewey, Bertrand Russell, Joseph Fletcher, Margaret Sanger, Charles Darwin, Joseph Stalin, Karl Marx, Stephen Jay Gould.

Materialists try to lump divine revelation in with their own sad state of having no basis for their beliefs.  There is no comparison between that which is based on God’s own voice and that which is based in human superstition and the ramblings of the human mind.
