"Does God Exist?"
("Not Yet”)
...but the Singularity is near, says futurist Ray Kurzweil
Transhumanism—men becoming gods—is the new religion of the New World Order

The Hobby Lobby Sham
Hobby Lobby won their day in court, but the Department Store chain remains heavily invested with millions of dollars in the same abortion & contraception industries they fought in court. Hobby Lobby also stocks their stores with cheap, slave labor products from nations like communist China (which forces their women to have abortions).

Connecting The Dots Between Money Creation, Corporatism, Income Taxes, The Patriot Act, Fascism, The Loss Of Civil Liberties And Christian Flag-Waving
"When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross."
- Sinclair Lewis, US novelist & playwright
Roman Fasce (Fascism symbol)
Fasce on American dime (discontinued)
Fasces in the US House Chamber
(on each side of the US Flag)
Fasces in the USA
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fasces
Characteristics Common To Fascism
1. Excessive Nationalism – Constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans & symbols. Flags seen everywhere, on clothing (against the US Flag Code), public displays and in churches.
2. Disdain For Human Rights – Citizens easily persuaded that human rights can be ignored in cases of “national security.” Torture, summary executions, assassinations & long incarcerations without trial are justified in times of national crisis.
3. Identification Of Enemies And Scapegoats As Unifying Cause For Increased Government Control – People rallying themselves into patriotic frenzies to eliminate perceived common threats or foes, such as liberals, communists, socialists or terrorists (e.g., racial, ethnic or religious minorities [Muslims, blacks, Latinos etc]).
4. Supremacy of Military – Armed Forces given disproportionate funding while domestic necessities are ignored. Soldiers are worshipped and military service glamorized.
5. Control Of Mass Media – National media controlled by corporations and/or the government for censorship and suppression of truth, the first two casualties in war.
7. Obsession with National Security – Fear and terror over masses resulting in more power given to the government.
8. Union Of Church & State – Government use of the nation's most common religion to manipulate public opinion. Religious oratory and preaching utilized to stir the masses.
9. Protection Of Corporate Power – Corporate & commercial classes placing leaders in positions of power to circumvent elections and create mutually beneficial business-government alliances.
10. Labor Suppression – Labor unions severely suppressed or entirely eliminated.
11. Obsession With Crime & Punishment – Police given almost unlimited power to enforce laws. Citizens willing to overlook police abuses while surrendering civil liberties in the name
of patriotism.
12. Rampant Cronyism – Rule by friends and associates who appoint each other to high positions of power to protect each other from criminal accountability (e.g., the looting of the national Treasury and other government resources [such as the missing $2.3 trillion from the Pentagon the day before 9/11], and the pardoning of criminals by Presidents and Heads of State).
13. Rigged Elections – Elections manipulated by laws passed to suppress minority voters, while campaigns are engineered to smear the opposition (often minorities). Political districts frequently gerrymandered and Judges bribed to manipulate the ballot.
14. Government Confiscation Of Firearms – Masses manipulated into surrendering arms during times of national upheaval (although unsuccessful in USA due to 2nd Amenment).

New Religious Film, 'Heaven Is For Real,' Promotes Universalism, Out Of Body &
Near Death Experiences, Visions Of Heaven, And No Hell
Movie based on New York Times best seller (by same name), authored by Wesleyan Pastor Todd Burpo and Republican journalist Lynn Vincent, published by world’s largest Christian book seller, Thomas Nelson Publishing.
Film produced by mega-church luminary, T.D. Jakes (who denies the Trinity), and Joe Roth (the plaintiff in the ACLU’s lawsuit to abolish prayer in public schools).
“It is uncivil, perhaps even un-American, to threaten people with hell. Of course the movie is more in tune with the overall culture, in which service with a smile has become a
national icon.”
- The American Interest
http://www.the-american-interest.com/berger/2014/04/30/heaven-for-everyone/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaven_Is_for_Real
“I knew a man in Christ more than fourteen years ago (whether in the body I cannot tell, or whether out of the body I cannot tell—God knows). Such a one was caught up to the third Heaven. And I knew such a man (whether in the body or out of the body I cannot tell—God knows), and how he was caught up into Paradise, and heard unspeakable words which is not lawful for a man to utter.”
- The Apostle Paul (II Cor. 12:2-4)
“Strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads unto life, and few there be that find it.”
- Jesus (Mat. 7:14)

Transhumanism: Evolution’s Next Big Step
Transhumanism: a modern by-product of a scientific fraud.
Transhumanism Symbol
Credit: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Antonu
Superhuman powers and life extension technologies will at last allow man to fulfill his age-old dream of ‘apotheosis’ [men becoming gods], attaining “reason, salvation—attained by good works—and taking control of his own evolution.”
The key moment of transhumanist change will be “The Singularity,” the moment when artificial intelligence will surpass human intelligence, and a massive technological “chain reaction will be triggered.” At that time biological intellect will merge with non-biological intellect and humanity will rise to super-intelligence.
“We have a moral responsibility to increase evolution and do so by continually striving to expand our abilities throughout life by acting in harmony with the evolutionary process…”
- Comments from Transhumanism Religion Conference
"We are going to become gods. If you don't like it, get off."

Powerful Christian Secret Society—“The Family”—Pushes The Death Penalty For
Uganda Homosexuals
https://www.thedailybeast.com/hillary-the-family-and-ugandas-anti-gay-christian-mafia
US hard-right group, 'The Family’ (sometimes known as The Fellowship Foundation), pushed Uganda's 'Kill the Gays' bill until Parliament finally shut it down. One Uganda politician—who wants to “kill every last gay person”—is a core member of The Family.
The Uganda agenda, if successful, will be The Family's model for other countries—including
the USA.
Hillary Clinton, hard-left democrat, is an active participant in The Family's prayer groups.
(Video)
(IMPORTANT NOTE: FAR rejects The Family's push for widespread executions of homosexuals. FAR believes that homosexuality is an abominable sin [e.g., Lev. 18:22], and that gay marriage should be outlawed and homosexual crimes punished. For instance, gays who copulate with the disabled should be imprisoned for life, and gays who copulate with children put to death. Although the New Testament nowhere advocates the wholesale execution of homosexuals, gays committing such crimes should be dealt with according to Romans 13:1-5. The widespread execution of homosexuals, if it ever becomes law in the US, will result in such hatred for American Christianity, it will not recover for a hundred years.)

An Interesting Admission Emerges At Creation-Evolution Debate
1) Creationist Ken Ham views humans as special creations of God, with freedom and dignity.
2) Evolutionist Bill Nye views Americans as “taxpayers and voters,” servants of the State.
"[I]f you want to deny evolution and live in your world... don't make your kids do it because we need them. We need scientifically literate voters and taxpayers for the future."
- Bill Nye, ‘The Science Guy’
Apologetics Press disagrees with "The Science Guy"
“Nye totally ignores the fact that America has become the superpower that we are, in science and in every other field—while largely not believing in evolution. America has historically been Christian and pro-Bible (and thus, anti-evolution), and in truth, it is due to that stance that America has flourished.”
