Lurking here and reading. It took me about two weeks to read the whole series. I got through about half the links and gave up...got the point. There’s a part 2 and 3. 3 has some info on the “skeptical” groups that posted the critique on this writer. Radical corporate atheist followers of Richard Dawkins who see Christianity and religion as the root of all evil? Something about Dawkins planned evolution theory that drugs and technology will cure us of spiritual yearnings and other irrational views (like questioning drug safety) and lead us all to a wonderful future free of suffering.
The title seems to be a reference to the Rapture, that the science cult is trying to frame all these new epidemics of disease and violent mental illness as a genetic “Last Judgment” which (never mind if industry science caused some of it) science will save us from like a pill pushing Second Coming. http://www.ageofautism.com/2013/01/part-3-frau-komas-second-coming-mass-murder-autism-and-the-cult-of-weaponized-genetics-.html Clever but I wonder where a movement like that would draw support from in the US. Maybe it disguises itself.
I don’t think this is a pro scientology (no caps, please) opinion since it states drugs can’t be banned but only better regulated. If these drugs are that dangerous, it seems prohibition is in order, but I suppose someone could make an argument about the track record of prohibition. Seems to be kind of general attack on utopian cults including pharmaceutical marketing and radical industry fronts.
