Teaching Creation In Ohio School District Apposed By Parents
"Anytime you promote... the beliefs of one religion over all other religions... in a public school classroom, that's a problem." - ACLU spokesman
The students are never told that evolution is a religion too, one built on faith, and one that violates the laws of science, and the only one sanctioned by the U.S. government
- Evolution violates the Law of Cause and Effect, which says the cause of the universe is
greater than the universe, and must have existed prior to and outside the universe. (Evolution
says the universe came into existence from nothing, a religious belief contrary to science.)
- Evolution violates the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, which says nature is devolving and
becoming more chaotic. (Evolution says nature is progressing upward, and man is getting
stronger and smarter, a religious belief contrary to science and the facts of history.)
- Evolution violates the Law of Biogenesis, which says life arises from pre-existing life. (Evolution
says life evolved from non-life, a religious belief contrary to science.)
- Evolution violates the Law of Probability, which says macro-evolution is mathematically
impossible, its chances being one in one followed by 2 billion zeros. (Evolution claims to have
beaten these odds, a religious belief contrary to science.)
- Evolution violates the Law of Conservation of Information, which says complex and coded
information can only arise by an intelligent mind. (Evolution says complex information [e.g.,
DNA & RNA] can evolve by chance, a religious belief contrary to science.)
Evolution is a religion just like Creation; both are matters of faith and require miracles.

The Trinity And Jesus' Deity Downgraded In Wycliffe's New Bible Translation
For Muslims
- Messiah substituted for Son. (Quran teaches Jesus is human messiah only, not God's son )
- Allah substituted for God
- 'Guardian' substituted for 'Father.' (Quran teaches God is no one’s father)
- "God’s uniquely intimate beloved Chosen One" is substituted for "only begotten Son of God"
(Quran teaches Jesus is a chosen prophet of God, not the unique Son of God)
- “Cleanse them by water in the name of Allah, his Messiah and his Holy Spirit,” is substituted
for “baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.” (Quran
denies the Trinity and the Diety of the Son)
Wycliffe's new Muslim Bible misleads honest, inquiring Muslims who want to know.

“We Have A Pope!”
Pope Francis is the first Jesuit Pope in history, and the first Pope to be bound by a blood-oath of obedience to another Pope—The Black Pope (the Jesuit Superior General)
Selected excerpts from the "Jesuit Oath"...
I declare and swear, that... he [the Pope] hath power to depose heretical kings, princes, states, commonwealths and governments, all being illegal without his sacred confirmation and that they may safely be destroyed.
I do now renounce and disown any allegiance as due to any heretical king, prince or state named Protestants or Liberals or obedience to any of their laws, magistrates or officers. I do further declare that the doctrines of... Protestants or Liberals to be damnable, and they themselves damned and to be damned who will not forsake the same...
I furthermore promise and declare that I will... wage relentless war against all heretics, Protestants and Liberals, as I am directed to do, to extirpate and exterminate them from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare neither age, nor sex or condition; and that I will hang, burn, waste, spoil, flay, strangle, and bury alive these infamous heretics, rip up the stomachs and wombs of their women and crush their infants' heads against the walls, in order to annihilate forever their execrable race.
I will secretly use the poisoned cup, the strangulating cord, the steel of the poniard or the leaden bullet... as I at any time may be directed to do so by any agent of the Pope or Superior of the Brotherhood of the Holy Faith, of the Society of Jesus.
In confirmation of which, I hereby dedicate my life, soul, and all of my corporeal powers, and with this dagger which I now receive, I will subscribe my name written in my own blood, in testimony thereof; and should I prove false or weaken in my determination, may my brethren and fellow soldiers of the Militia of the Pope cut off my hands and feet, and my throat from ear to ear, my belly opened and sulphur burned therein, with all the punishment that can be inflicted upon me on earth, and my soul to be tortured by demons in an eternal hell forever.

40th Anniversary Of Roe v. Wade, The Supreme Court Decision That Legalized The Killing Of The Unborn
- Americans claim abortion is immoral but still support it (a moral contradiction; one cannot be in
favor of killing the unborn and against the killing the unborn at the same time and same respect)
- Most people claim to be ‘pro-choice’ (a logical contradiction; the baby has no choice)
- Americans demand abortions be “legal, accessible and safe” (a medical contradiction;
abortions are not safe, someone always gets killed)
- Every Supreme Court Justice that backed abortion in 1973 was appointed by a Republican
President (a political contradiction; Republicans claim to be pro-life)
- Churches teach America is a “Christian nation” (a religious contradiction; a Christian nation
would not permit the killing of the unborn)
These contradictions cause the world to laugh at America and mock Christianity.
