If you like, I can give you a list of Bible prophecies made by God that have actually happened just so you know that God is, indeed, omniscient and omnipresent and knows past, present and future and knew thousands of years ago that there would be a Russian invasion of Israel. I know it may cave your entire world in, but before you start calling others desperate, you need to get the facts and the fact is is that God, not me, said that Russia will invade Israel.

Lysenkoism was just as unscientific as creationism, but dressed in the language of the ‘theology’ of communism.
