Since Secular Humanism is a religion, why is the Government enforcing its teaching in public schools

How can we know anything about anything

To try to explain truth to him who loves it not is but to give him more plentiful material for misinterpretation. George Macdonald

Do we have to make a choice between science and the Bible?

NO!

That is NOT where the problem is, but that is what everyone seems to want to talk about.

Take science as an example. How can we know anything about the created material world around us?

How can we know anything from what we can see using natural sciences?

We all see the same things in the material world, but we don't come to the same answers.

Why is that?

How can we know anything about the Bible and what it teaches? Every person believes different things about the Bible and how it should be read.

Why is that?

Same scientific facts. Different answers.

Same Bible. Different answers.

Why is that?

The true question is this: How do we come to our answers that we get from what we can see through science or what we can read in the Bible?

How do we think about what we see using science or what we read in the Bible?

How do we analyze what we have seen and read?

How do we interpret what we have seen and read?

We use logic, but logic always has a foundation. Jesus talked about building on the Rock. That Rock is Jesus Christ. He is the true foundation. There are also the false foundations of the ungodly.

An example might help.

Question: Why do believe in evolution?

Answer: Because my science teacher told me that evolution is scientific fact.

Question: Why do you believe your science teacher?

Answer: because he agrees with the textbook he assigned us to read.

Now, we have asked, "Why?" twice.

If we continued to ask, "Why?" we would come down to the foundation of this person's thoughts.

When we get down to the foundations, there are no more questions that can be answered. So where to the foundations come from?

There are three possibilities.

things that we make up, pulled from the air
demonic lies
divine revelation

Question: Why do believe in creation?

Answer: Because God revealed this to me. He spoke to me through the Bible and gave me His faith so that I could believe Him.

See how quickly we got to the foundation. This is a belief that has a foundation that is solid and that cannot be moved.

In reality, the things that we make up, that are pulled from the air, are actually from demons and all the lies of demons spring from the prince of demons, Satan. So these are one and the same.

Divine revelation comes from the Almighty, Creator, God, Jesus Christ. So there are only two choices, but how do we know there are only two choices? Because God has revealed this truth to us.

The question then is how do we tell the difference between the revelation that comes from God and the lies of Satan?

The answer is that everyone who sincerely wants to do the will of God will know.

Jesus said, "If you really want to obey God, you will know if what I teach comes from God or from me"

The rejection of the revelation that comes from God is not an intellectual problem. It is a moral problem.

Jesus said, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you: For everyone who asks receives; and he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks it shall be opened. *

Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to those who ask him? Matthew 7:7-11 *

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. You can set the truth before someone, but you can't make anyone believe those things that they don't want to submit to. They have to want to obey God.

How frequently it is brought to our attention that nothing good can be done if the will is wrong! Reason alone fails to justify itself. Richard M. Weaver

Jesus said, "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free" (John 8:32)

"If we are not prepared to buy the truth at the cost of our own humbling we shall not receive it"

Lies appear to have no price upon them. They seem cheap and they abound everywhere. But for the truth there is always an obvious price to pay.

[God] has set a day when He will judge all the world's people with fairness. And He has chosen the man Jesus to do the judging for Him. God has given proof of this to all of us by raising Jesus from death" (Acts 17:31).

"There is a judge for the one who rejects Me [Jesus] and does not accept My words; that very word which I spoke will condemn him at the last day" (John 12:48)

That also stands for every person who speaks the utterances of Jesus. When we hear them, we hear Jesus Christ, and we either accept or reject. Every person who follows Jesus Christ is commanded to only speak His utterances and not their own.

"When we love others, we know that we belong to the truth, and we feel at ease in the presence of God" (1 John 3:19)

Ravi Zacharias did two open forums in a university. On the second night, one man told him that he had brought two Atheists in the night before who said that the arguments presented were so strong that they could not contend with them, but they were going to remain Atheists because that is what they prefer to be true.

In listening to an unbeliever and drawing out his reasoning, the unbeliever finally came to his foundations.

They turned out to be assumptions that were pulled from the air. When asked why he believed his basic assumption, the unbeliever looked startled and blurted out, “I guess I’m making the whole thing up.” It was quite a revelation to him since he hadn't even known that he had any assumptions. However, he decided to remain an Atheist because he didn’t want God to rule over him.

It seems strange to talk about a secular religion, but when you have a religion that is trying to be both a religion and a non-religion, logic is out the window. This is the case with Secular Humanism. As a religion, Humanism has political and social aspects that are emotional and fanatical.

The U.S. Senate of former Minority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D., quietly slipped a provision into the No Child Left Behind Act that requires, by the 2007-2008 school year, science testing by grade 5. That gives censors the authority to force 10-year-olds to believe and defend evolution.

Here is a quote from a humanist that will give the reader the proper perspective.

"I am convinced that the battle for humankind's future must be waged and won in the public school classroom by teachers who correctly perceive their role as the proselytizers of a new [make-believe] religion of humanity that recognizes and respects the spark of what [some ungodly] theologians call divinity in every human being. These teachers must embody the same selfless dedication as the most rabid fundamentalist preachers, for they will be ministers of another sort, utilizing a classroom instead of a pulpit to convey humanist values in whatever subject they teach, regardless of the educational level preschool day care or large state university."
The Humanist, January/February 1983, "A Religion for a New Age."

It is long past time for parents to realize they have the right and duty to protect their children from the intolerant evolutionists. Hooray for courageous school boards that are finally rejecting censorship and allowing debate.

I founded the CSPC because I know the danger posed by the left in general and the academic left in particular, the so-called "liberals" who can't tolerate a different point of view. Back in the 1960s, I was one of them. But I eventually saw that their agendas were anything but "progressive" -- as they like to describe themselves. They wanted the United States to lose the Vietnam War, just as they want America to be defeated in the war in Iraq today.

The anti-Vietnam left was successful. American withdrew from the battlefield in Vietnam and the Communists won, just as the left hoped. After the Communists won, they proceeded to slaughter two and a half million peasants in Cambodia and Vietnam. There were no protests from the left over that.

During the 1960's, young wealthy followers of Marx, Rosseau, Shelley and the like, the so-called illuminati, rejected the morals and society that had made them into spoiled rich kids. They formed an organization that spread their religion throughout colleges around the world. When their riots failed to totally destroy the American Bible-based society, thousands of these fanatics did whatever it took to enter fields where they could exert the most influence. They became politicians, news people, administrators in religious orders and denominations, lawyers, judges, entertainers, and college professors. They freely discriminated in hiring and promotion practices in order to help each other into positions of authority. They sometimes claim that they are not a religion and sometimes claim they are a religion. In fact, they are a religion, and they see no problem in discriminating, and in promoting and hiring only those who share their anti-Christ religious beliefs.

New Age is a diverse religion with many denominations. New Agers use the phrase, "unity in diversity." This explains why such diverse New Age religions can work together for a common goal. The New Age white supremacists can work together with New Age Eco-terrorists. The New Age Atheists can work together with the New Age Spiritists. How strange is the close relationship between homosexual and pro-abortion advocacy groups? And, it must be remembered, The religions that are liberal include New Age plus other religions that believe in the ability of the human to attain to goodness, as opposed to those religions that believe that there is none good but God.

New Age

Humanism is actually a denomination in the New Age Religion, an anti-Christ religion that is very wide-spread. The general tenet of the New Age Religion is "Do as thou wilt." It is hedonism. Everything that might curb hedonism is termed fascism. Everything that is hedonism is defined as a right. This religion has permeated the various secular and many Christian organizations. It appeals to the basics of human nature, so its doctrines are very easy to implant. It seeks, through coercion and entertainment, to implant its doctrine into every person. This is the root of the many changes in law (laws against morality and in favor of what has been labeled the new morality or political correctness) that have taken place-especially since the 1960s. The fruit of this religion can be seen in increased crime, perversion, and also in the persecution of certain selected groups of people i.e. Christians and Jews.

Humanism is fanatical in promoting deviant behavior that defiles the holiness of God's creation and to twist and make ugly what God has created to be beautiful in marriage. Another area of great zeal is the promotion of socialistic government. There is a tendency to lean away from free enterprise. There is a tendency toward disgust or intense dislike for those who believe in God and those who believe the Bible to be literally true. Here is something very odd: they have been able to peddle this lack of tolerance and lack of open-mindedness to the general populace as being tolerant, open-minded and scientific. This is possible only because they control the news media, the entertainment industry, the schools, and the judicial system.

They have reversed morality. They have legislated their new morality, the anti-God morality, as much as they have been able. And they push for increasingly more of this immoral morality. Books are constantly being written and promoted by immoral politicians, news media personalities, and movie stars to promote this immorality. They are desperate to push this immorality into every home in the world. What used to be wrong is now considered politically correct. What used to be right is now considered to be politically incorrect. We see the result of these changes in increased crime, corruption in high political offices, corruption among corporate leaders, diseases that are out of control and many other problems. Slouching Towards Gomorrah, a book by Robert H. Bork, Regan Books, New York, 1996, gives many interesting insights and some history about this subject.
