It’s called degeneration, and one can see 7 basic stages in Romans 1.

“That’s where science alone can lead you” would be more accurate. Men who only do what’s seems reasonable to them can be just as dangerous as the Taliban, or worse. Science is good and necessary, but it has no transcendent moral authority, but it can actually help to substitute the wisdom of such.

I don’t know how many comedians I have heard who ridicule and condemn religion, and no one utters a peep. But, dare to make fun of Darwin science and you are censored. Unreal.

The only thing that the left understands is emotion. They look to the personality first and to the intellect second if at all.

so much for universities teaching scientific principles if constrained by such narrow perspectives, and so much for the grading system in those universities, too. Sad.

His saying that modern science was responsible for the Holocaust didn’t make him many friends.

there's an old adage, goes something like, troops may fight wars, but scientists win wars. Holocaust victims were treated as lesser humans, even animals, because "modern science" deemed them genetically inferior, leading to all manner of 'scientific' experiments -atrocities - in the name of investigating what science termed inferior beings. Science and war have always been intimately connected. imo

There are a few, such as myself, who lived in MA (mainly for ministry purposes), who are like voices in the wilderness. Recent news from the MassResistance Update: (http://www.massresistance.org)

1. Transsexual janitor in MA elementary school - school sends letter to inform parents that male employee is now a “woman”.

Written simply in an eerie informational style, the parents were told that one of the male custodians will now be coming to school dressed as a woman, and is now considered a “woman”, and that parents should inform their children of this because the school intended to tell them if they asked about it. “The best thing to tell them is that our custodian used to be a man. She has changed her gender role and is now a woman,” the letter said to parents. It’s extremely Orwellian.

Also, on the back of the letter, the parents were given links to “helpful” resources about “transgender issues” to help them “learn more.”... that also describe CHILDREN changing their sex..

2. Assault on Massachusetts: Homosexual lobby files 8 bills in Legislature to push agenda even further this year.

3. Massachusetts now allows people to declare “gender you consider yourself to be” on drivers licenses and official state IDs.

The madness continues as the “transgender agenda” moves forward. Huge implications in society.

4. MA Legislature continues passing laws with no quorum—contrary to Constitution

On New Years Eve: 3 Senators meet and pass laws! Media just shrugs shoulders, doesn’t consider it newsworthy.
