Darwinism
-
the greatest hoax in academic history!
By Peter Wilders
It’s
criminal! Mr. Darwin with the help of the scientific community killed God in the eyes of many believers: yet he is lauded as a hero of science – even by the Catholic Curia! Atheists are cock-a-hoop. Without a vestige of empirical proof his famous "theory" of evolution launched over 150 years ago albeit nothing more than an invalidated hypothesis is heralded as the greatest scientific triumph ever. After all this time and not even having achieved status of a "law" it is considered as the indisputable paradigm, and Queen of sciences. Those daring not to bend the knee before the theory commit career suicide.
No student reaching scientific maturity can expect to earn academic laurels by mentioning the emperor’s lack of wearing apparel. The question is how much longer can the threadbare theory resist the cold reality of logic? Patched up by one ad hoc amendment after another, defenders of the theory have thrown prudence to the wind. Irritated at the lack of proof for their evolutionary speculations, they have promoted them to scientific principles. No single example of macro-evolution has ever been forthcoming. The evidence is no Nobel prize has been awarded for proving the theory: neither in terms of "cosmic" or "biological" evolution. If there had it would no longer be called a theory and the debate closed to thunderous applause.
The basic laws of physics are tortured to fit speculations of matter being produced from non-matter. Brilliant academics are recruited to spend their talents on algorithms to prove life could come from non-life. Phylogenetic trees are drawn showing all the imagined stages of development of bacteria to man with not a single undisputed intermediate fossil. Despite the systematic lack of links, fossils are nonetheless used to indoctrinate biology students into the dogma of evolution. Extrapolation is the rule of the game. Morphological resemblance between species is sufficient for biology teachers to teach them as proof of evolution. To qualify as scientists students must accept as factual data this kind of specious evidence – with approval of the examiners!
The cost to society is the fantastic waste of brain power expended to give the hoax credibility. To give Darwinism an infrastructure two assumptions only are needed. They are those taught from playschool to university. First, rocks took millions of years to form, and second, life evolved from nothing by natural laws. These tenets of the evolutionary infrastructure digested, it is then left to the top Ph. D.’s in all disciplines, including theology and philosophy, to find the best hypothesis to justify the assumptions. As neither assumption is founded on empirical evidence, as explained later, their mission is impossible!
All this is a background to the drama that has been playing out for many years in Rome: intensifying within the realm of the relatively new pontificate. The epicenter of Catholic evolutionism is the Pontifical Academy of Science (PAS).
Founded in its present form in 1936 by Pope Pius XI, it arrogantly nailed to the walls of Rome its crossed keys evolutionary colors alongside those of St Peter’s. After first irradiating the Vatican incumbents, its evolutionary shock waves then went via Catholic schools and seminaries to the entire Papal Empire. God did not create alone, as His Church magisterially taught at Lateran IV in 1215, He did so as Darwin taught in 1859 by means of an evolutionary process. The situation was manna from heaven to the principally atheist intellectual elite. The prestige of the PAS with its current Protestant President and its glittering assembly of Nobel laureate evolutionists is such that Christ’s humble teaching has had to take second place – as has her 1215 dogmatic proclamation out-casting evolution theory!
In the last year of the 19th century and the start of the 20th Pope Pius X began to realize with a few others that the Church was under serious attack. He labelled the aggressors "modernists".
Not distinguishing between their various facets he unknowingly rendered a service to evolutionism. There were several attackers whose weapons were varied. Masons used skullduggery, atheists: materialism, evolutionists: flawed science, Soviets: infiltration, modernists: abuse of magisterial teaching. They all had in common the overthrow of the Church. So Pius X lumping them together, not giving particular emphasis to evolution, the pivot around which the others turned, allowed Darwinists to slip the net.
Whereas modernism targeted so heavily at the time by Pius IX and Pius X continued to be rejected by the Curia its meaning was open to manipulation.
Today modernism is still considered as an evil but has lost all of the "Syllabus" and " Pascendi" punch. Tragically, biological Darwinism continues not to be given "modernist" status and ergo is accepted by the hierarchy. This was made clear by Benedict in his 1989 Vienna address to European doctrinal commission presidents:
The decline of metaphysics goes hand in hand with the decline of the teaching on creation. Their place has been taken by a philosophy of evolution (which I would like to distinguish from the scientific hypothesis of evolution). The object of this philosophy is to learn rules from the development of Nature for improving life. But Nature which ought to be the teacher along this path is blind. This adds to the hazards which man has in attempting to copy Nature. Man’s relation with Nature (no longer with Creation) becomes one of a manipulator and not as a learner. It continues as a relationship of domination based on the assumption that rational calculation can be just as intelligent as "Evolution": it can lead the world to heights not so far obtained without man. (Author’s translation and added emphasis)
Whilst Pius X was condemning modernism in the strongest of terms—he called it "the synthesis of all heresies"— the liberal corridor was closing ranks. It ridiculed the Pope’s encyclical Pascendi in particular for its affirmation that the Church’s teaching is not opposed to science. Rationalist scientists disagree.
They claim man evolved from preexisting beings. The Church, however, dogmatically declares man was created from nothing: ex nihilo. The separate forces of Masonry, atheists and Soviet infiltration whose stated object is the annihilation of the Catholic Church made papal governance extraordinarily difficult. The tendency among the then loyal Catholics to nod indulgently at the reigning Pope’s pre-occupation with the Church’s enemies, led to the lowering of the former’s guard against the bitter reality of those adversaries.
Eventually, however, as history has shown, the enemies took control. It was achieved by the battering ram given them by the scientific and theological propagation of Darwin’s theory in places of Catholic education. Evolution replaced God. Yet, amazingly, for over a generation, the theory has become the paradigm of scientific and theological teaching. In the mind of Catholic academia, science has priority over faith. After all, the principal propaganda weapon of Communism since its inception had been to teach that the Church is the enemy of science.
In the light of the foregoing, a look at the track record of current clergy explains its failure to respond adequately (if at all!) to today’s problems. The struggle for power by the various modernist factions has produced a resounding victory for Darwinism. Traditional teaching was trampled in the rush to modernism years ago. In such conditions, how can any prelate be expected to see things differently? Daring to criticize the subject of Darwinism within the hearing of clergy or catechists is not only politically incorrect, it guarantees a ticket for marginalization. Strangely, the general public are less close-minded, but in a society where all official lines of communication are pro-evolution, occasional public sympathy counts for little. The pseudo-scientific overtones of Neo-Darwinism and its synthetic theory leave no door open to protest. Science is "knowledge", anything else is "faith".
Modernism, the "synthesis of all heresies", has triumphed: it is wishful thinking to believe otherwise. Can a modernist Curia claim to be Catholic?
Fortunately, the new knowledge now available can pull out the pegs and collapse the evolutionary tent. The empirical experimental peer-reviewed proof (www.sedimentology.fr) that rocks form rapidly leaves all evolutionary disciplines bereft of credibility.
Nonetheless, for the time being the smoke cloud thrown up by modernism continues. It has reduced intellectual visibility to the point that evolution appears nowhere on the Vatican radar screen. Bravo Lucifer! Moreover, he (L) has so arranged it that there is nil awareness in the Church that Darwinism has usurped God’s place as Creator.
Looking objectively at the situation, however, there is reason to believe that God is not party to this indifference.
History has shown He will forgive people breaking his commandments but anything touching his divine nature is another thing.
Starting with the Great Flood, the entire people the Bible says was corrupt. They had turned away from their Creator.
Only eight persons Noah and his family survived: out of how many million – there is no way of telling? Then the perversion of the people of Sodom and Gomorrah (redolent of laws enacted today?), exterminated en masse by fire. So it went on throughout biblical history. The incredible phenomenon of the last century, described here, is a continuation. A vigorous god-fearing people reduced to a remnant by the godless theory of evolution it espoused.
A theory fuelled by an equally godless media catering for immorality of every kind: abortion, "marriage for all", euthanasia, divorce on demand etc.
The punishment exacted is clear to see. Churches, seminaries, convents closed. Religious communities exposed to scandals. Youth perverted by liberal school programs. The natural law is in tatters. Where is it going to end? Where are the clear signals that should be coming from the Church? There is an end in sight but only when its members realize they have been taken for a ride, and demand unambiguous answers.
Why has the Deposit of Faith been twisted to accommodate an unproven theory? Why is modernist theology preferred to that of the Apostles and Fathers of the Church? An example of both is the Genesis Creation account. It is read at the great festivals of Christmas and Easter but because of evolution theory is not expected to be taken seriously. Darwin knows best! ■
