Revising History

Secular humanists are revising history to make it fit their world view. It does not seem to matter to them that the revisions are untrue. One might wonder why they would do such a thing. It is very simple. They cannot implement their world view when the majority of the people, not only of the United States, but of the world can clearly see that what they are doing is practically, not to mention morally, wrong.
God has a plan for mankind, but men, starting with Adam, have decided that they don’t want to follow God’s plan, but they want to do their own thing. It is easy for thinking people to see that God’s way is advantageous to man’s way, but those who insist upon man’s way are either blind or merely obstinate. Those who want man’s way seem to insist that everyone follow their way and will resort to force to do so. They have not yet mustered that force, so while they wait until the population is properly aligned with them, they resort to indoctrination. That indoctrination requires that they revise history, discredit the real heros of our past, and shed doubt on what has been known as truth. They resort to liberal interpretations of biblical scripture that denies its authority and that of its Author. They had to come up with an alternative story of our origins so the natural longing of human beings to know their Creator can be answered with a Godless version of the origins of mankind and the universe. So they invented a story of evolution based on misapplication of data and outright lies. Now the find themselves needing to control the economies of the world and have invented the story of global warming or climate change which is again based on misapplication of scientific data, yes, and even outright lies.
Secular humanists have a need to control the human race and set themselves up as the “governing class.” That is the only way they can mold the world in their own image. They hate free market economies because they cannot control it. They hate the truly intellectual and educated because again they cannot control them, so they have replaced intellectualism with conformity and education with indoctrination. They have to appease the masses, so they turn the working person and middle class into drones to do their bidding at the price the ruling class wants to pay while enriching themselves. All the while they accuse those opposed to their movement of doing the very things they themselves are doing. They can’t adequately govern because they are mere humans with human limitations. Governing can only be done with God’s guidance. They can’t allow people to succeed on their own so they manipulate the markets and economies while pointing to others as the culprits for any deficiencies.
What secular humanists are revising us into is not a pretty sight. It is not good for any person in our society. It will make the poor poorer, the unhappy unhappier, while making those who have been prudent with their earnings part of the poor and the happy unhappy. It will make the governing class wealthy, and I suppose that is why many espouse the revisions because they think they will become a part of that class. Maybe they will and maybe they won’t. What humanists are revising us into is a miserable and cruel lot for humanity. Hopefully it will last for only a short period of time. We need to pray that God will shorten the hand of these who hope for such misery, tyranny, and oppression of the human race, lest they just can’t stand the misery.
Pray, “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven!”

I took the liberty of correcting the mistakes in your post.

Creationists are revising history to make it fit their world view. It does not seem to matter to them that the revisions are untrue. One might wonder why they would do such a thing.

They say their imaginary God has a plan for mankind, but men have decided that they don’t want to follow their imaginary God’s plan, but they want to do their own thing. It is easy for thinking people to see that their imaginary God’s way is not advantageous to man’s way, but those who insist upon the imaginary God's way are either blind or merely obstinate. Those who want the imaginary God's way seem to insist that everyone follow their way and will resort to force to do so. They have not yet mustered that force, so while they wait until the population is properly aligned with them, they resort to indoctrination. That indoctrination requires that they revise history, discredit the real heros of our past, and shed doubt on what has been known as truth. They resort to conservative interpretations of biblical scripture that denies its non-authority and that of its imaginary Author. They had to come up with an alternative story of our origins so the natural longing of human beings to know the truth can be answered with an imaginary God version of the origins of mankind and the universe. So they invented a story of creation based on misapplication of data and outright lies.

Here's an interesting link to an article about the tactics people use to avoid scientific facts. If science disagrees with a person's belief's, reject science.

Patrick, you have it exactly backwards. Progressives have been revising history and then turn around an accuse purists such as creationists and accurate historians of doing exactly what they themselves are doing. You don't need to correct my post because it was accurate. Your corrections are what is inacurate. God's plan is real and just saying it isn't doesn't negate that plan (I think we have had this conversation before). I hope you will see the error of your ways because to be in opposition to or even to be in denial of God's plan could be harmful to you. You cite scientific fact, but your views are those resulting from a denial and misinterpretation of scientific fact, again, as we have discussed before. If you go back to the original documents of the founding fathers you will find them to be devout Christians, yes even Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson. They were more devout than many ministers today. Ignore the facts if you want to, but what you end up with is an untruth.

"If you go back to the original documents of the founding fathers you will find them to be devout Christians, yes even Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson."

I disagree. I don't think they were orthodox Christians or pure deists but something in between. A guy named Greg Frazer wrote a doctoral thesis titled "Gouverneur Morris, Theistic Rationalist."
On page 9 he explains what he means by that phrase. It seems to fit Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Franklin and according to Frazer, Morris.

It's well known that Jefferson rejected the deity of Jesus and Franklin admitted to having doubts about the divinity of Jesus.

Jonathan Rowe wrote a post over at the American Creation blog explaining how George Washington was also a theistic rationalist. He also has an article about about Benjamin Franklin.

There is also a good postover there debunking the book that Glenn Beck is pushing: "George Washington's Sacred Fire."

JTA said...

You may disagree, but your sources are not based on the original documents. The idea that Mr. Frazer's thesis title "seemed" to fit is a matter of perception, not fact. Jefferson and Franklin may have explored some doubts regarding to their religion, however, when they were doing the work on the founding documents and organizations they were right in sync with the ministers and devout believers. If you go back to their writings they strongly believed in God, Jesus Christ, the Bible and prayer, all of which was reflected in the documents and actions upon which our nation was founded. Yes, the United States of America was founded on the principles of Judiasm and Christianity.
Yes, we should pray and be encouraged by our leaders to pray as both Jefferson and Franklin encouraged the founders to do. There is no separation of church and state that prevents it. Praying in public governmental forum has much precedence, and is not prohibited by the Constitution. The idea of separation of church and state as progressives have led our naive society to believe is not in the constitution. The government forcing a state religion on the people is prohibited, but not praying in the public forum. One of the places progressives have rewritten history to support their misguided views is in the interpretation of Jefferson's letter where he mentioned a "wall of separation." He was not refering to the support of the government by regligion, but the idea of the government forcing a religion on the people. It is interesting that those progressives who cry out with their misguided ideas on separation of church and state are now trying to tell religious leaders they should preach in support of their misguided political move regarding health care, the environment, and the financial policies enacted by a misguided congress. That is clearly a violation of the constitutional intent to prevent the government from forcing religious views on the citizens.

You're making the same arguments here that you made in your letter that appeared in today's Yakima Herald-Republic. I won't bother to respond here as I wrote a comment at the newspaper's website. A few others have also commented.

I closed my comment with question which I'll ask you directly. If Mayor Cawley had called for the community to face Mecca and bow to Allah, would you still be defending him?

JTA said...

If the USA were a nation based on Islam, as a Christian, I would probably be silent. But it is a nation based on Christianity with a history of praying to the Creator God of Christianity, the only true God. Being a Christian nation, if Cawley called for prayers exclusively to Islam, I would protest. He did not call for that, but merely called for people to pray. If there had been Islamists there and they prayed with the group, no one would have stopped them. Most of the people prayed to the God of Christianity which is appropriate in our society and in our nation.

There are many comments as you stated, but they represent opinion and perhaps misinterpretation of the writings of the constitution, the declaration of independance, the writings of Jefferson and Franklin along with some very typically leftwing emotional accusations not based in reality. I will go through them specifically and comment in a later post.

The debate here is who has the accurate reading on history and who is the revisionist. I think I have the accurate view and you are the revisionist. I also wonder about the motives of those I perceive as revisionists. I don't think it is religious freedom but a desire to make everyone conform to their way of thinking and never do anything that would contradict their way of thinking. That is tyranny, not liberty. If you don't want to pray, don't pray. I am not telling you you have to. But let us pray when and where we desire, even when we are representing the government. That is a right of liberty!
