Alex Jones' Infowars: There's a war on for your mind!

Wed, 24 Sep 2008 20:21:43 -0000

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

“A primary purpose of the educational system is to train school children in good citizenship, patriotism and loyalty to the state and the nation,” Croskey wrote.

Easy to understand how they'd want to dissolve homeschooling, then. If homeschooling is indoctrination to obedience to the state, they want to make sure that the state controls it. posted by adamskinner

PWM - Homo Nexus

Tue, 23 Sep 2008 19:29:51 -0000

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

Could they be “changed” so that they are no longer created in the image of God?

All of his further statements in this paragraph are hinged on the veracity of this speculation. posted by adamskinner

Homo nexus will never exist! Mankind will never evolve into a higher lifeform! For macro-evolution only takes place in the minds of those who have rejected God!

This is a mischaracterization. Macroevolution, or "evolution as a theory of origins", is a different concept than one species changing into another over time. posted by adamskinner

Cross-breading was attempted in the Bible

Referenced here is the (plausible) theory that the Nephilim were angelic crossbreeds. I'm not sure if they were ontologically different from humanity at that point insofar as their relationship to God and his expectations from them are concerned. posted by adamskinner

ionlike men of Moab

misinterpreation to support the argument. "lionlike men" just means mighty warriors. cf: http://jfb.biblecommenter.com/1_chronicles/11.htm et al posted by adamskinner

every hand six fingers

Six fingered men are post-human? This does not support the argument. posted by adamskinner

Being converted into a transhuman no longer bearing God's image is the real hazard of re-engineering the human race!

"no longer bearing God's image"? So we bear the image of God in our genetic code? Is that it? Is that interpretation even within the pale of orthodoxy? If we lose this image when we "add superhuman capabilities" due to genetic changes, why is it that these images are not lost when genetic mutations naturally occur (eg "genetic disorders")? They both stray from the path of the "image" of the genetic code, supposedly perfect and complete in Adam. I don't buy this argument. posted by adamskinner

But to give up the physical image is eternally damning, with no chance of salvation!

This assertion is a fabrication, and unsubstantiated by scripture. posted by adamskinner

Noah and his family were spared. Why? They were perfect in their generations (Gen 6:9). They were fully human.

misinterpreation. If Noah was spared because he was "fully human", why weren't the other fully human people on earth spared? Is that really the rationale that scripture gives? I don't think so. "blameless in his generation", "a righteous man" seems a more correct interpretation. posted by adamskinner

Modern History Sourcebook: John Calvin: On Predestination

Mon, 22 Sep 2008 14:12:02 -0000

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

gives to some what He refuses to others

It is not that he "refuses", for that predicates a request. The unregenerate make no such request of God for salvation (cf 2Cor4:4). posted by adamskinner
