Science has, on many, many occasions served to shut down certain critics of religion and religious history. In particular, the Old Testament of the Christian Bible (based on the Jewish Torah) and the New Testament have been the target of naysayers, atheists, and Leftist revisionist historians for centuries. With the advent of modern technology and scientific theory and exploration, archaeological excavation has uncovered corroborating evidence time and time again that clarified and verified long-held assertions by Jews and Christians that the books of the Bibles (both Jewish and Christian) are accurate and true histories of what has already occurred in ages past.
If you’re like me, you enjoy a good documentary. There are literally thousands out there on any given subject. Some of the really enjoyable ones are those that take no particular biased opinion, but work from the standpoint of a person simply trying to discover truth. I used to be a fan of the History Channel until I actually began to research subject matter myself. Then, the ugly truth emerged and that was that the History Channel, A&E, Discovery, National Geographic, etc., etc., were all on the same page as far as developing a storyline and delivering the finished product. Number one, it has to be marketable. Can’t make money without someone wanting to watch it and without advertisers interested in sponsoring that show. Number two, it has to be controversial or provocative. For obvious reasons, you don’t want a real draw-out boring program (see Number one above). And Number three, it has to have a slight, extreme or radical Leftist slant. This is key in the packaging of these shows because of the types of people involved in the production, the actors who bring the stories to life, and the sponsors who follow trends based on social media and sales statistics.
For this reason, I completely avoid all the Liberal trappings of the documentaries which pretend to be about “exposing the truth” about history, particularly when it comes to anything that happens to be sacred to Christians or is deeply ensconced in identity politics or racial inequality. If you’ve ever gone on Netflix to watch a documentary about, say, the Book of Genesis, you’d be sadly mistaken to believe that this will be an in-depth study of the Book of Genesis. Rather (as becomes quickly apparent during your viewing of the show) the program is out to disprove the Book of Genesis in one way or another. They usually approach the subject matter from several different angles, all exposing the “lies or half-truths of the men who wrote the Book.” And this is a pattern with practically 100% of the so-called documentaries. The information is there to test your faith, to see if you’re actually paying attention to scripture and not to the flashy, state-of-the-art computer graphic renderings of the construction of Solomon’s Temple or the Exodus from Egypt.
Once again, science has come to the rescue and facts bear out more evidence that the Bible should be taken at its literal word rather than in mystical metaphors and allegory. Read on the following page about the amazing new DNA evidence direct from Egypt that will shut the mouths of condescending Liberals…at least temporarily. An extraordinary finding!
What you believe and what your perceptions are, dictate the outcome reading the bible, witnessing a crime, or even hearing a strange noise in the middle of the night. If I wake up & immediately think, I wish I were dead, my whole day will be ruined. If I wake up happy, my day is productive.
Acuity of our mental facilities also lead us into seeing only what the brain allows and no more. Witnessing a crime can provide much information for the law, as long as our heart is stirred to do so, instead of walking away. Sudden images stay fine tuned, but can leave out details that went unnoticed.
When I read a book, it is wise for me to let the book speak to me, instead of eyeing with constant critical analysis. If that happens, then clearing the mind of negativity and starting over is much more profitable when seeking the truth. Good day. Peace.
Well Dennis Langford according what you posted about christianity however maybe you are not aware that religion and true christianity is not the same religion is in the head Christianity is in the heart
Ursula Bryant mabey you’re not aware religion is a means of control
Dennis Langford I am very well aware of this read what Christ said about the religious leaders of his time
I’ll take Religious Idiocy for 1000 Alex…
1 Cor 3:19-20 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written, “He is the one who catches the wise in their craftiness”; 20 and again, “The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are useless.”
How do they figure their dna goes back to that son of ham? Do they have Mizrayim’s dna or Ham’s? So I want to know how they came to the conclusion that the mummies’ dna came from him if they don’t have his dna. Not knocking, I believe in the Bible, but just curious.
The “better safe than sorry” logic is flawed. There are many seperate religions being practiced in modern times, including many different sects of Christianity. You could easily be practicing the wrong one and still wind up in hell. Not knocking your beliefs, just your reasoning.
It’s never been wrong….live it
Uhm. The Jews used the Sabbath day. Christians worship on the first day of the week. Sunday.
Tjat was because Jesus rose on the first day of the week.
Greg – The Gregorian calendar is responsible for changing the days of the week. Prior to that time, Christians aka Israelites observed Saturday as the Sabbath Day. I have to disagree with the author of this piece because I know that it is Judaism that is trying to erase the history of the Bible.
