The Death of Reason and the
Return of Jesus

(Part 2 of 2)


Evolution

Educators continue to predicate all bio-medical education on Darwinian presuppositions. We are expected to overlook the fact that there is no proven instance of DNA transmutating across the species barrier in the natural environment. We are expected to overlook the fact that the kinds of mutations and permutations that would be necessary for evolution to take place would be mutations of a kind that works to the detriment and ultimate extinction of a species, not to its advancement. We are expected to overlook the fact that any genetic pairing involving nucleic acids requires previously existing information. The replicative functions of RNA require an existing bio-database; and information cannot exist without the pre-existing intelligence to create it. Nonetheless, reason is suspended and we are expected to assume a hypothesis whose plausibility is, at best, precarious and certainly unproven, as if it were a fact. We are expected to deny the fact that there is an absence of transient forms and tremendous gaps in the fossil record that can only be explained by mere conjecture that we are further expected to treat as fact. In a generation that has seen ethnic cleansing on a genocidal scale unprecedented in human history, where other races are portrayed as sub-human, we are expected to ignore that Darwinism, applied anthropologically and taken to its natural conclusions, was the basis of Hitler's holocaust. We are also expected to forget that this same anthropological application of Darwinian presupposition, would relegate non-whites to the status of genetic inferiority to Caucasians providing a supposedly scientific basis to racial superiority.

The scientific dilemma created by the abject premise of Darwinism however, extends well beyond life science and social science, but even spreads its tentacles into physical science. We are expected to discount the fact that when the world of cosmology and particle physics was in a tumult of debate over questions surrounding propositions such as "Plank's Constant" and "Heisenger's Uncertainty Principle", Albert Einstein, the greatest theoretical physicist since Newton, retorted "God does not play dice with the universe" - putting a nail into the coffin of known causal random effects on the basis of pure mathematical improbability. Yet this same calibre of mathematically quantified improbability is the very standard upon which evolutionary views of physical existence depend. We are, for example, expected to ignore the odds in enzyme synthesis against the right combination of amino acids finding the right balance of covalent relationships and forming bonds to begin the complex process of forming extremely long protein molecules. Peptides must form according to a precise genetically controlled prescription into chains of polypeptides to make even a single protein which must be able to biochemically interact with other proteins in an organism which must maintain a level of homeostasis (chemical balance) enabling it to survive in and interact with an ecosystem containing countless other organisms of equal complexity.

The notion that the entire biosphere could happen to evolve by chance on one particular planet conducive to sustaining life, and not on the other planets in our solar system, is statistically ludicrous.

In the name of modern science, we are expected to neglect the fact that the founders of modern science, from Newton and Pascal to Keppler to Pasteur and Einstein, were uniformly theists, believing in an intelligent creator, to say nothing of the fact that others, such as Rutherford and Faraday were professing evangelical Christians.

There are both scientifically and theologically good and scientifically and theologically bad versions of creation science. There are, however, no good versions of Darwinism, scientifically, theologically or otherwise. The Word of God specifically warns of such foolishness concerning futile speculation about His creation; "professing to be wise they become fools" (Romans 1: 21-24), and God gives them over to such foolishness to allow them to believe what a logical mind would call unbelievable.

Medical Science

We are expected to ignore the neo-natal survival of premature babies at earlier and earlier stages of gestation. We are expected to ignore the avalanche of advances, not only in neo-natology, but in ante-natal obstetric surgery, genetic medicine, improvements in amniocyntotic (embryonic fluid), ultra sound and magnetic resonance diagnostic technology, and in rehabilitative paediatric medicine, all of which provide less and less clinical grounds for non-therapeutic abortion and are on the verge of making the only difference between abortion and infanticide semantic. Yet it is not politically correct to confront the medical and scientific facts in regards to abortion for what they are. Medical science is supposedly based on logic. But now gynaecologists are expected to adopt abortion policies void of logic. Euthanasia is the next battle on the horizon.

The social dimension of this human catastrophe, however, is even more outlandish. There are actually organised black markets for illegal adoption of children from the Third World and the waiting lists of childless couples wishing to adopt a baby, even a handicapped baby, are longer than the amount of babies available for adoption can satisfy. The social reality is that there is no such thing as an "unwanted baby". Yet because there are unwanted pregnancies, we are expected to ignore the fact that there is no such thing as an unwanted baby and pretend as if there is, even though everyone knows there is not. Not only are human foetuses being aborted - human reason is also.

We are expected to ignore, in contemplating the problems of reduced attention capacity in children, the fact that children today are the third generation groomed by a television culture, now reinforced by computer games and other electronic pastimes. resulting in very short attention spans. The decline of the nuclear family, due to the divorce rate and out of wedlock births, contributes to instability in a child's home environment during his or her formative years. All this we are expected to ignore.

In medical science the best way to diagnose a disease is to use some tool, such as an X-ray, a CT scan, a blood or urine analysis, or a biopsy. In the absence of this, the worst way to diagnose a disease is, instead of beginning with a disease and finding a cure, you begin with a cure (or supposed cure) and find the disease; if you can't find what is wrong with someone - find out what therapy or medication they respond to is used as a last resort in trying to identify the source of their complaint. Today, as we ignore the social and environmental factors affecting attention span in children, as too politically incorrect to address, instead we prescribe Ritalin. No-one at Moriel is stating categorically that there is no such thing as attention deficit disorder (ADD) but unlike hyperthyroidism (a hormonal imbalance also creating attention disturbances) the medical journals state that there is no pathology to diagnose ADD.

So too we are expected to ignore the psychological impact of peer pressure to live up to the manufactured image of a super-model or a female pop video icon, as possible causes for the tragedy of increased anorexia amongst teenage girls. Instead, the syndrome BDD (bodily dysphoric disorder) becomes the cause, despite there not being a physician in the world who can diagnose its existence with any objective pathology of a definite organic nature.

More preposterous still, is GDD (gender dysphoric disorder), which is the name given to the condition supposed to explain why homosexual men wish to have sex change surgery. We are expected to ignore the plain scientific fact that there are X and Y chromosomes and sex is determined by what we are chromosomally. It is not politically correct to take note of the fact that the DNA in every cell of our body says that we are either male or female. Instead, these people suffer from GDD, a disorder corrected by surgical intervention in the form of emasculation, a sex change surgery which they now demand be funded by the National Health. It is politically incorrect to accept the scientific fact that in order to change someone's sex you would have to change the genetic constituency of every cell in their body.

Inter Faith Unity & Ecumenism

What we call reason is no longer reasonable. When secular society abandons reason for the sake of political correctness, that is one thing. But once the Church does it, we are dealing with something that has much more lethal repercussions, both socially and spiritually.

As we have noted many times, the seminal blame for this, however, is not to be found in either the corridors of power or in the godlessness of secular society. Rather, it is to be found in a Church that has failed to be salt and light. How can Evangelicals remain in the Church of England that ordains homosexuals? How can supposedly saved Christians financially contribute, via their parishes, to the diocesan funds that pay the salaries of homosexual clergy? Evangelical Anglicans are expected by their leaders to ignore these irrefutable facts, because it is not politically correct to do otherwise.

False religions are, by definition, irrational (including counterfeit expressions of Christianity). Only the authentic faith of the Bible is grounded in reason (Isaiah 1:18, Acts 17:17). This is not to say that the Gospel is merely an intellectual faith, but it is to say, that unlike false religions, it is intellectually defensible. Empirical evidence affords us an apologetic foundation for our faith in Jesus and the scriptures. It is unreasonable for Hindus to believe in an unjust caste system based on a belief in karma that values the life of a cow who is well fed above that of a hungry abandoned baby on the streets of Calcutta. It is not logical to drink cow urine or water from the Ganges believing it to be sacred - and dying of cholera.

There is simply no empirical evidence for the claims of the Bagavagida, or the Tibetan Book of the Dead.

There is certainly no logical reason for faith in a divinely inspired authorship of the Koran, or the Book of Mormon.

The Koran confuses Mary the mother of Jesus with Miriam the sister of Moses, who lived 1000 years before. The Koran states that Haman from the book of Esther was an official in the court of the Egyptian Pharaoh, many centuries earlier than when he actually appeared in the court of the Persian king. The Koran teaches that upon growing weary in the evening, each night, the sun sets into a miry pit. No-one in their right mind can believe such rubbish. Just as no-one in their right mind can believe in a righteousness of a depraved paedophile sexually violating a 9 year old child, as Mohammed did. It is just not reasonable.

No-one can believe in a surrat containing the Koran's teaching of Umma; the doctrine that Moslems are one nation and one people. In fact, most jihads are Moslems fighting other Moslems, and not so-called infidels. The actual reason Islam must make war against the Christian and against the Jew, is because, without a common enemy, these savages will war against each other, as they always have done. The Jordanians in Black September of 1970, systematically exterminated upwards of 10,000 Palestinians in 12 days, to prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state. In the war between Iran and Iraq, 1.5 million Moslems, many of them children, were killed by other Moslems. After invading Kuwait, and being driven out by America and Britain, Saddam Hussein once more turned his sword against his own people, annihilating countless Shia Moslems in southern Iraq and earlier murdered thousands of Kurdish Moslem women and children with nerve gas, just as the Syrian Government used its air force to eradicate somewhere between 20 and 35 thousand of its Shia Moslem citizens in a single series of air strikes directed against civilian populations, while in its notorious hypocrisy, Moslems decry limited American and British air strikes against terrorist targets or the internment of genocidal barbarians.

The simple fact of the matter is that the Koran is wrong and proven wrong. There is no umma and never will be. Whenever Western countries have had wars, at least one of the participants was not a democratic nation. While radical Islam denounces Western democracy in favour of the Islamic khalif system, the fact remains that no two Judeo Christian democracies have ever had a war while Moslem nations have rarely had anything except war - usually against each other, a bloody history that continues to this very day. Reason dictates that, as a religion, Islam is something that simply does not work as its history and contemporary events prove beyond any reasonable doubt. Belief in the unworkable demands the rejection of reason.

Joseph Smith was a convicted swindler and Brigham Young, with 23 wives, a proven false prophet. Nobody in their right mind would believe that someone who said Quakers living to be 1000 years old resided on the moon, as Smith did, nor on the sun as Young did in his Journal of Discourses Volume 17. Only an ignorant bigot would believe that black people are the descendants of fallen angels and are ugly, wicked and mischievous, and that any white person marrying a black should be killed, because of the Mormon law of atonement. Yet, this is what Brigham Young taught. It is simply not reasonable to believe such evil men were God's prophets. The first requirement of being a Mormon is to abandon any sense of reason.

This is even more true when one examines the repeated legacy of false prophetic predictions by Charles Russell and Judge Rutherford, the founders of the Satan's Jehovah's Witness cult.

No-one reading the Torah could reasonably believe that the Talmudic Judaism of the rabbis is the biblical Judaism of Moses and the prophets (now fulfilled in Jesus, the Jewish Messiah). It is just not reasonable.

As the Reformers, themselves from the intelligentsia of the Roman Catholic clergy discovered, no-one reading the New Testament could reasonably argue that either the Roman Catholic church or the Eastern Orthodox church are the Christianity of the New Testament. This is why Roman Catholicism to this day denounces scriptura sola and why it placed the Bible on the index of banned books for so many generations, actually burning those who read it for witchcraft and often placing an eternal anathema on their souls.

None of these false religions have a reason based faith, unlike the faith of the bible. All demand that one suspends reason.
The Jesuit founder, Ignatius Loyola, taught "that if the papacy says it is daylight when it is dark outside, we must believe it is night." Catholicism can simply not accept common sense. Its pagan ideas of transubstantiation, derived from Aristotle's misunderstanding of physics and chemistry, where something could be atomically one substance on an elemental or stoiciometric level invisible to the human eye, but appear to be something entirely different on a visible level, known as its mere "accidents". The advent of molecular chemistry, however, debunked this peculiar concept of physics and chemistry as demonstrable nonsense, yet Roman Catholicism continues to believe it to be true of its eucharist. It began with a misunderstanding of the scientific nature of matter. But once science understood molecules, it was proven utterly wrong. To continue to believe something disproved is superstition and superstition requires an absence of logic. It is just not reasonable to believe in the mass. Yet in order to be a devout Catholic, one must be devoid of reason.

What about Contemporary Evangelicals?

The abrogation of reason, unfortunately, is not the exclusive domain of evolutionists, homosexuals, politicians, the media, or false religions. The abrogation of reason has been preached repeatedly by apostate evangelicals, such as Rodney Howard-Browne, Kenneth Copeland and John Arnott, from among a long list. Such nonsensical and maniacal paths to apostasy have been adopted and promulgated by such figures as Paul Weaver, Colin Dye, John Glass, Sandy Miller, David Pytches, Gerald Coates, Bryn Jones and others.

Death of reason in the world is rivalled by a death of reason in the church.

When the scriptures, no fewer than six times in both testaments, issue strict caveats against spiritual drunkenness, and portray animal imitation as a divine judgement, it is unreasonable to believe that deceptions stemming from such abominations can possibly be of God; the fruit of the Spirit is self-control, and God does not contradict Himself, or He would not be God. To remain in churches led by such false shepherds is unreasonable. Given their proven track record of failed routes to revival, from the afore-mentioned to Jim Challenge to Alpha courses.

Since, according to the Brierly Report, the UK has seen a 22% decline in church attendance in the first ten years of Alpha alone, with the Anglicanism losing approximately 1000 per week and a 16% decline in the number of charismatics and Pentecostals since the laughing experience, while Islam has become the fastest growing institutionalised religion in the UK and the Mormon cult the fastest growing supposedly Christian sect. Reason demands that the false leaders who misled the Church into these deceptions be abandoned by their flocks. But reason is openly preached against. It is both dangerous and unreasonable to ignore physical symptoms of illness. Doing so can result in premature death. Yet the bastardised gospel of Copeland and Hagin urge biblically ignorant Christians to do this very thing. It is not reasonable, but they do it and consequently place themselves at risk of self-inflicted death.

It is no more reasonable to call the faith of the prosperity preachers the faith of Hebrews Chapter 11 than it is to call Talmudic Judaism the faith of Moses or Roman Catholicism the faith of the Gospels and Epistles. Yet now professing evangelicals sacrifice reason and true faith for a false faith that in the end is but faith in faith and not in Christ, and therefore no faith at all. It is not reasonable in light of the warnings of the Olivet discourse, Deuteronomy 18, Jeremiah 23 and 28 to continue to heed the words of those proven to have prophesied falsely in the name of the Lord. The Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons do this, but so too do the adherents of the ministries of Gerald Coates, Rick Joyner, and the Kansas City false prophets. It is not reasonable to be a Mormon or a Jehovah's Witness for these reasons, but for these exact same reasons, neither is it reasonable to be a member of New Frontiers.

I have rarely encountered as much illogical and emotional reaction to a challenge than I have from Reformation Protestant Christians in general and Calvinists in particular. Unlike as in Biblical narrative where both the good and bad points of hero figures are portrayed for what they are, a sure mark of "religion" and religiosity is the tendency towards hagiography (misrepresenting religious heroes as totally sanctimonious figures, where reference to the human imperfections is omitted and mention of them considered virtually blasphemous). Roman Catholics call it "canonization of saints".

The Jehovah's Witnesses do it with CT Russell, the Mormons with Smith and Young and, not least of all, the Moslems with Mohammed. Orthodox Jews even resort to it among some of the most sinister characters in rabbinic history, such as with Simon Bar Kochba (who kicked a 90 year old rabbi in the head and killed him and bought the nation into destruction and dispersion as a false messiah), and Rabbi Akiva who persuaded the Jews that Bar Kochba was the Messiah.

Nonetheless, many Lutheran Missouri and Wisconsin synod churches do precisely the same with Luther, calling him "the Beloved" and expecting everyone to join them in dismissing Luther's polemic against the Jews, which later inspired Hitler, and his "stab them in the back" position during the Peasants' Revolt. Luther and the Reformers may have been the founders of what came to be called "Protestantism", but they certainly were not the founders of the Reformation - they more or less hi-jacked it. It was actually Erasmus who first pointed the Church back towards the scriptures (and attacked the papacy for its hypocrisy and corruption in the most vitriolic terms imaginable!) and the Baptist sects (whom the Protestants and Catholics alike would persecute) who were the most Biblical Christians.

In Northern Ireland, extreme Calvinists engage in open revisionism (the rewriting of history), pretending that the Pope did not bless William of Orange with a papal tirdeum centred in Vienna, controlled by the Catholic Hapsburgs and likewise behave as if there were not Catholics from Holland fighting with William at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. More absurdly, they expect everyone to join with them in pretending that Irish republicanism was not founded by reformed Protestants in the Home Rule movement, such as Isaac Butt, Theobald Neppertandy, Charles Parnell, and Wolfe Tone. They act as if their Protestant forebears were always for the British crown when, in fact, at the close of the eighteenth century the British crown massacred their Protestant ancestors fighting the crown for Irish independence. There is simply no logic to Orange Protestantism, but bigotry is never logical.

Reading the Koran and Islamic history, the Taliban were indeed genuine Islam. The only thing the Taliban regime actually amounted to was Islam taken to its logical conclusions. Yet, the police states of the reformed church in Calvin's Geneva, Zwingli's Zurich, Knox's Scotland, and Puritan England and Massachusetts, were the Taliban of their day, complete with the judicial flogging and execution of women on religious grounds as public entertainment. Whenever one points out that Mohammed was a paedophile to a Moslem, they become extremely disturbed, not because it is a lie, but rather because it is true. I have experienced similar responses evoked from Calvinists by citing George Whitfield's support of the institution of slavery; again, not because it is false, but because it is true.

The history of injustice in Moslem society is paralleled by the history of injustice in Calvinistic society, from the apartheid of South Africa to the slavery of the American South to the Plantation period of Ireland - all endorsed from the pulpit by the Calvinistic clergy and sanctioned by the Reformed churches of those places at the time. Moslems resent someone looking at the reality of their own societies for what they are, just as some Reformed Christians share the same aversion for the same reasons. It is not reasonable, but neither hyper-Calvinism nor Islam are reasonable, because neither one works.

Just as Islam was unable to prevent Moslems from massacring each other, so too Calvinism was unable to stop Calvinists from massacring each other in the Puritan war against the Presbyterians. Both killed each other. And just as Islam requires a common enemy to stop fighting amongst themselves, a the recent shoving spectacle by Protestant Parliamentarians in Stormont illustrates how, in principle, the same thing can be true of Calvinists. This is a reasonable observation, but the political correctness of Northern Ireland insists that reason be jettisoned.

Just as Moslems become enraged when you point out its failure to bring unity, so too, Calvinists become angry when you document its similar failure. As we have often noted, the fatalistic Islamic doctrine of inja allah and the Calvinistic misunderstanding of the biblical doctrines of election and predestination, are essentially two variations of the same thing in two different religious and cultural packages - one Islamic, and one Protestant.

In Hinduism it is not reasonable to exhibit the serpent spirit demonic manifestations and animal imitations of kundalini yoga or find an allure in Brahman priests or gurus as little gods who prey upon and exploit them. and to believe them to be untouchables whom it is blasphemous to criticise. Yet, in Vineyard, Elim and other churches where Hindu oriented New Age deception has been given a Christian label by David Blake, John Arnott, and others, we see the same demonic manifestations. Like any Hindu guru, Rodney Howard Brown and John Arnott urge people in the name of spirituality to suspend analytical thought in order to become 'more spiritual' in what the bible calls a counterfeit spirituality. So too the same allure is paid to the faith-prosperity con men whose followers are the Bagwan Rajeesh devotees of hyper Pentecostalism, and the untouchable status of Brahmans becomes an exegetically twisting of 'touch not my anointed'. Just like a guru propounding yoga, Pioneer's Patrick Dixon calls Altered States of Consciousness and irrational behaviour spiritual experiences (which they may be, but not from the Holy Spirit whose fruit is self control - Galatians 5:23).

Worse still was Elim's David Blake's defence of the animal imitations common in Hindu mysticism as Christian published in the Elim tabloid (and called excellent by the Elim leader of the time Wynn Lewis). But in The New Testament, it is only backslidden Christians whose behaviour is compared to that of animals (2 Peter 2:12). Remarkably, the term used here is aloga from the Greek term alogos translated (eg. Acts 25:27) irrational and unreasonable, but whose etymological root is "without the logos". The logos is of course the Word of God and the logos is the incarnate Word of God - Jesus Himself. Where His Word is negated, Jesus negated, and consequently so are reason and rational behaviour.

Indeed, the message of the gospel itself is God wanting to reason with man about our sin and how it can be forgiven (Isaiah 1:18). The Gospel is reasonable.

Conclusion

In order to accept the unreasonable with the attitude of nonchalance we see in so much of the contemporary church, a deranged strain of complacency is required. It is a pitiful complacency that treats reason as unreasonable and substitutes the reasonable with that which can never be supported with reason, let alone justified by God's Word. Such complacency in the Last Days always relates to the Church of Laodicea. But this complacency accepting the abrogation of reason is not primarily the usual complacency of Laodicea that stems from being deluded due to being lukewarm and materialistic. It is rather one that comes from the spirit of deilias actually meaning 'cowardice' that bible translators euphemistically call "a spirit of timidity". It is what happens when we fear other men instead of fearing God. We lose the logos. As a direct result, we lose power, we lose love, and then we lose the power and the love of "reason".

This is precisely what Jesus warned the elect would happen before His return. He told us that in just such an age, where reason has been sacrificed to the point that the reasons He gave to be alert for His return are ignored is the time He would return. We have apostatised from reason because we have apostatised from the Word of God. Truth no longer matters (2 Thessalonians 2:12). This is why doctrine (the teaching of Jesus) no longer matters in the Church, but is seen as divisive and undesirable, forgetting that Jesus Himself is both The Word and The Truth, and once we depart from the Word and the Truth, we have departed from Him. What is happening today defies reason, because reason has been rejected. It is for this very reason that the Son of Man is coming at an hour when people do not think He will (Matthew 24:44).

Moslems Firebomb English Church During Islam Awareness Week
In the recent UK observances of Islamic Awareness Week, the church burning that is normal Moslem behaviour in Nigeria, Pakistan, Indonesia and elsewhere, came home to Great Britain. Islamic gangs hurled anti-white racist insults at an Anglican vicar in a parish church in Bradford, setting alight an automobile parked in front of it, and then attacked the church with the aim of burning it down.

We have warned for years that Islam is not a tolerant religion, and would do the very things in Britain and elsewhere in the West, to Christians and Jews, that they do to them in Islamic countries. The fact is, that the British and American Governments, wilfully ignore the fact that the rights of Christians are guaranteed nowhere in the Islamic world, and their basic human rights consistently violated. Nowhere does Islam accord to Christians and Jews the same rights they themselves demand in Judeo-Christian democracies. The British Government, of course, has not been honest with the country in confronting the militant Islamic threat. The reality of this came home after the violent assault by Moslem youths on a 70 year old veteran of the Normandy invasions in Oldham, beating him up for the crime of being a ³white Christian² on ³their territory². The media and the Government and stupidly, so much of the church, refuses to recognise the reality of jihad and what it really means. The bombardment of the Australian cricket team on the field, with projectiles, by raging Islamic supporters of the Pakistan team is, to the militant Moslem mind, part of jihad. It is not mere sport. So too, the devotion of British Islamic youth to the now defeated boxer Prince Nazim, who was humiliated in the ring when he was finally obligated to fight a viable contender - was not mere sport - but a battle between Islam and the West.

The Moslem community will insist it is not a suicide bomber religion. They make this claim because it is not considered suicide, but martyrdom, equally, the claim that Islam is not a terrorist religion, is simply because it is not regarded as terrorism, but as ³holy war². Claims by the media and Western governments, that such views are only representative of a small minority of Moslems, are hollow and under-estimate the social and political reality. Militant Islam is a cancer within Western society, requiring radical surgical intervention to remove. The folly of British and American politicians, anxious to defend Islam as the opposite of what it appears to be, is politically motivated nonsense. It is Moslems who defined Islam as a violent religion, based on hatred and murder, so why should so-called Christians be the ones to redefine it as something more tolerant? If it is true that Islam is a tolerant religion, and it is only militant Moslems who have defined it as a terrorist religion, it should be for moderate Moslems to redefine it as something more civilised and less barbarian.

The question becomes, however, where are the truly moderate Moslems? We are repeatedly fed the lie by the media, and by the Western governments, that Yassir Arafat is a so-called moderate Moslem. In actual fact, on 28th August 2001, only two weeks prior to the Moslems murdering nearly 3000 people in their jihad attack on the World Trade Centre in New York, Arafat¹s Palestinian Authority radio station was broadcasting inflammatory sermons by militant Imams, inciting Moslems to wage jihad against Great Britain and the USA. While the Western media stupidly portrays Arafat as a man of peace, translated transcripts of his Arabic speeches show him to be a man of war, whilst simultaneously telling the English speaking world that he wants a peaceful solution. We can find no reason to disbelieve the charge of the Israeli Government that Arafat is anything less than a liar and a murderer. The media bias, by CNN in particular, has been astounding in its reporting concerning Israel. We note that a Saudi prince and financier is a major investor in the Time Warner parent company of CNN. Moriel suggests that Christians subscribing to CNN notify CNN by e-mail that if this biased reporting does not stop, they will cancel their subscriptions; complaints to: cnn@cnn.com
Similar media bias, masking the magnitude of the militant Islamic threat within Britain and misrepresenting the total reality of the Islamic threat to which the Israelis, the Russians, the Serbs and others have been compelled to react, is seemingly common policy at both the BBC and at Britain¹s Channel 4. Moriel would encourage letters of complaint to both ITV and the BBC, not only on behalf of Israel, but now on behalf of Britain.

Moslems will quickly point out that Mohammed said that ³there should be no coercion in matters of religion². What they will not point out, however, is that he said this when the Moslems were a surrounded minority in Arabia and his tune rapidly changed once he gained the upper hand, ordering a total of 65 military campaigns to spread Islam with violence and treachery and personally leading 27 of them. They will also neglect to point out that Islamic scholars say that this teaching has been either withdrawn because it only applied at that time, but none the less applies at certain times: specifically when Moslems are again in a minority and cannot strategically win the jihad. The Moslem, he may say he believes in peace when he believes in war, because, according to their hadith, this is permissible lying, It is not seen as a lie, but rather as ³military disinformation² in a jihad, which the Western media is naively or stupidly more than happy to broadcast, and the White House and 10 Downing Street are more than happy to propagate.

We have warned on our website that September 11th was the beginning of God¹s judgement on America and the West, as Lockerbie was the beginning of God¹s judgement on Britain. The apostate positive-thinking guru, Robert Schuler (mentor of Bill Hybels, and protégé of Norman Vincent Peel) hosted the grand mufti of Damascus at California¹s Crystal Cathedral, and said he wouldn't mind if his grandchildren became Moslems. When the present Pope kissed the Koran, it did not stop a host of backslidden evangelicals, lauding the Pope, and banning evangelization of Roman Catholics. The Word of God warns of those ³who hold a different gospel² as the way of salvation (Galatians 1:8) and no matter what they say; as the tens of millions of former Roman Catholics in the true Body of Christ today will testify. God says they are accursed. Billy Graham pays homage to this Pope who called on the Catholics of Mexico to rise up against the Protestants.

Once Evangelical leaders compromised with one false religion, it was inevitable that they would compromise with another. Thus we see that J I Packer joined Colson, and other former Bible-believers, in endorsing Peter Kreeft¹s book Ecumenical Jihad, calling for ecumenical union with Islam to morally redeem society; a book which also teaches that Mohammed is in heaven!

Paul Crouch appeared on his money preaching TBN television broadcast, holding up the Koran and asking his Moslem brothers to help him understand that book. On September 11th, his ³Moslem brothers² did precisely that!

Moriel urges prayer for our leaders in both London and Washington, but urges its British readers to follow Paul¹s example in appealing to Caesar. We urge our readers to write to the BBC and Channel 4, concerning biased news reporting with regard to Israel, at the following postal addresses:
