There is no more
enlightened being in the world than the atheist when he says there is
no definite dividing line between moral and immoral, do as you see
fit, the point is to have fun.
If
there is a balloon floating on the infinite ocean, and in the balloon
there are smart ants communicating about the meaning of their
existence, what is the point? Sooner or later the balloon will burst.
There is no sense in drifting, no sense in purposeful communication,
no sense in the balloon, in the sea itself, in the sea current.
Everything is mindless, only the denial of God makes sense, because
the rationality of atheism is unsurpassable.
No
wonder then that I receive fraudulent emails from atheist-minded
criminals asking me to give my card details because I have not paid
my non-existent debts to a service provider to which I do not belong

The
concept of atheism means that human life has no objective meaning. If
atheism is true, then human life is meaningless. What is the
difference between right and wrong, right and wrong? There is no
moral difference between them.
Nuclear
war is a sunbath for atheists, in which they glorify the
meaninglessness of their own existence in the name of scientific
enlightenment. Darwinist as he made his bed in the nuclear tomb, he
sleeps his sleep in such a way.
At
the root of all problems is the meaninglessness of existence, a
doctrine that materialistic science has used to force humanity to
believe that this is its calling and nothing more.
But
instead, there are a million pleasures and selfish desires that
modern science has created to enjoy the fleeting moments of your life
that are fading into miserable non-existence.
Isn't
it all the same?The point is to have fun."There
is probably no God, so you can enjoy life in peace."/Richard

According to the rigid, God-denying position of academic science, the world can be explained without God: physics-chemistry-evolution-natural selection... And the result? An utterly meaningless, purposeless process creates a secular society of planet Earth-destroyers who refuse to accept any external moral guidance over themselves.
And
why do people insist on this instead of facing the facts? Because
science teaches them to find the meaning of their lives in various
readily available substitutes, since existence is fundamentally
meaningless, the material manifestation of life itself the result of
a random mechanical chemical process flowing from quantity to
quality, a mixture of stardusts that natural biological processes
have embraced and polished out of necessity driven by the need to
survive.
Man,
realize that materialism identifies you as a bean pod that was formed
by chance and destined to be thrown away!

whole genetic program is in the service of DNA, not of humans

Every beautiful moment of life is a protest against passing...
What does life teach us?
A
selection of reflections from 12-year-old children:
1.
"Life
means different things to different people (...) A person who is
always happy, balanced, not nervous, can really live his life. We
live to set ourselves a goal and to make our dreams and desires come
true. But it is the same with plants and animals. We all have a task
to fulfil and life gives us the opportunity to do that. Life includes
the sun, the water, the earth, without them there would be no life.
Life is the most wonderful and beautiful mystery on Earth that I
would like to understand one day. There is nothing more special and
beautiful than life."
Unfortunately,
you will not understand it through school education, because it is
your teachers /I am talking about the teachers in the civil schools/
who teach you the meaninglessness of life itself. But they only say
it because it allows them to live out their own moral attitudes
without constraint, to reduce the life process to a materialistic
level and to directly bypass intellectual influences that limit them
for the freedom they create for themselves. This freedom, however, is
a quarantine that prevents the fulfilment of existence. If plants and
animals have a function in the cycle, they have a place and a
purpose, which is defined. And if they are determined, then there is
a meaning in the process, the origin of which the human spirit has
the opportunity to investigate. Isn't it interesting that matter has
no mental faculty and therefore materialism is nihilism gone to
seed?! You have your own spirit to use and to transcend the
artificial barriers of materialism. And in the end you will
understand the most beautiful and sacred mystery, for you are richly
blessed with the spirit that can lead to the solution of the mystery
if you use it with clarity, sincerity and purpose. A universe
saturated with meaning is not meaningless, but only to those who
create the meaninglessness of their own existence with their
handicapped intellect.
2.
"Life
is the best teacher. Life doesn't usually talk to you. It just nudges
you here and there. With every nudge, it tells you to "wake up".
Because I want to teach you something. The meaning of life is not
just to exist and survive, but to progress, to rise up and achieve
your dreams. Problems recur because when they arise we keep thinking
about it, and so we cling to it instead of letting it go (…)"
The
fact is, achieving dreams is only an apparent progress and ascent,
because the real things beyond dreams are what define the foundations
and goals of life. What is life trying to teach you? That life is too
precious to waste your time on a tedium of opinions about it,
opinions that are opinions but not facts. Only the facts will take
you higher and further, and knowing the facts will lead you to the
point that started the facts happening. Birds are not carried away in
the sky by their dreams, but by the facts. Learn from them. What
facts they follow and what are the factors that allow them to follow.
3.
"Life
is probably one of the most elusive things in the world (...) Every
human being has a journey that we go through, we are born and we die
(...) I think life is beautiful in a way that we don't know what is
waiting for us (...). Every day we have to be happy with the little
joys and appreciate what we have got from life. We must strive to
notice the good and the beautiful and accept the bad if we cannot
change it. We must be able to accept, to love unconditionally and to
forgive (...) We must rejoice that we have someone to love and that
we are loved in return."
Is
life really so beautiful that we don't know what is waiting for us?
That is true in the short term, but that doesn't make it beautiful,
it makes it varied. I don't know how the food was prepared, but it's
delicious. But life is more than just delicious. At the end of a life
filled with beauty and goodness, death is like looking at toasted
bread through the glass window of the stove, soaking in the delicious
aromas that end up smelling burnt as they burn in the oven. It can't
be the purpose of bread in the oven to burn at the end if you can
intellectually see through this meaningless process. Then one must go
to the source of reason, where does it come from? And there will be
the answer to why the bread must burn at the end, while you feel that
this fate is not worthy of the majesty of the sweet-smelling bread to
be condemned to this.
4.
"Life
is a miracle. How a tiny seed grows into a mammoth pine tree, for
example, or how all zebras become regularly striped, or how a baby
develops in its mother's tummy, is almost incomprehensible. Many
people believe that we only live once, but there is a belief that we
are reborn several times (...) Life is a gift, full of all kinds of
good things. We just have to open our eyes and see the beauty of the
world."
The
mammoth pine tree, developing from a tiny seed, could not evolve if
it were to base its anatomically determined development on the belief
in a supposed rebirth. The same is true of the zebra's strip, and
especially strikingly of the development of a baby in its mother's
belly. Here everything is defined, the size and structure of the
abdomen, which is in perfect harmony with the baby's parameters
throughout its growth. There is an intelligence to this that cannot
be explained or justified by the anatomical object itself. The
complex structure of a clock cannot be deduced from the structure of
a clock, it cannot be explained by the structure of a clock, but has
a justified purpose beyond its structure. The material of a round,
metal keyholder cannot explain the purpose that the keyholder serves
in holding the keys. The existence of intelligent agents is to be
found in their purpose, which leads to the origin of their existence.
Nor is seeing with the eye exhausted in noticing things, but in
perceiving them and correctly managing the combination of the two.
The rule of regular stripes does not exhaust itself in the visible
anatomy of the stripes, but they lead beyond the stripes.
5.
"I
think life is a gift, a blessing that we have been given as a gift
(...)"
When
you receive something, someone gives it to you, because you didn't
find it, it didn't just come to you by chance. Your life is not
exhausted in the anatomical events of life, since it is augmented by
the spiritual surplus of seeing above it, which has no anatomical
basis, since the vision of the eye is not the knowledge of the brain,
but the vision of the eye is only its serving loophole. If you look
for your meaning in anatomy, you trace your gift to the luck of
chance, which is precisely what is lacking in meaning. A gift can
never be the work of chance, because a gift is the fulfillment of an
intellectual attitude towards the one who receives it. The one from
whom you receive it is not exhausted in the materialistic conception
of "what you receive it from", because the two are not on a
given level, since spirit is not a level of objects, but above them.
When one looks into oneself, one can do so with one's eyes closed, in
fact. This is the way to the realization of blessings, it is not
paved with signposts on cobblestones.
6.
"Life
is a cycle. (...) One who lives a full life is born, grows up, and
then dies. (...) When one life ends, another begins. Life has
questions we cannot answer, but we know that life is good."
You
have accepted your pigeonholing into an unanswerable framework that
also sets the standard of goodness. Are you satisfied with the result
of mutilated goodness? Light filters through the layer of ice that
must be broken through to get near the light. But if the shadow is
enough for you, then the merry-go-round of the circle of life you
choose to live is enough.
7.
"(...)
I believe that life was given by God to invent something new,
something good. God tests us, gives us a chance. Life is a miracle
and a gift. A miracle because the smallest and simplest single-celled
organism can live. A gift because I did not ask for my life and yet I
live. I also think a lot about why I live. What am I looking for in
life? (...) I don't know yet, but I'm looking for the answer.
How
do you know why God gave you life if you don't look into it? Are you
satisfied with the instincts you have to find out what lies behind
the miraculous gift? The simplest single-celled minority, just so you
know, is of incredible magnitude, for there is no mere life-bearer,
but what and who can live is of a higher order than even the
inanimate universe. True, life is not something we asked for, and for
millions, life is only pain and suffering. Because those who gave
them life did not give it to them as a gift, but as a forced
consequence. But life is such a wonderful thing that those who
receive the bitter fate will be compensated by the Great Giver of
Life, because His gift of life is not based on miracle alone, but on
justice, love and providence.
8.
"Life
is the thing that allows me to be here among the living and to
rejoice in the many wonderful things that I don't know what force and
how created (...)"
We
are indeed in the midst of miracles, and because we are in the midst
of miracles, our souls are paved with beautiful memories, with pieces
of the granite mountain of miracles that are given to us. The force
and its effects cannot exhaust the aspects of spiritual experiences,
for without it they do not exist without the consciousness by which
you can perceive them and translate them into the perceptive field of
your soul, which can capture them. Therefore, the greater value is
that which is above the wonders, that which makes them enjoyable. To
Him in Whose spiritual image and likeness you are made, to Him you
owe the pleasures you can consciously experience. Not knowing what
power and how you were created, is no reason to live with a nagging
sense of futility, just in case this is the station where your
searching, curious self resides. The problem is, if this is it, it
will remain the final destination you are content with. But this is
not where you are meant to stop! From here you must go on, and look
upwards, not downwards, into the deep prison of matter, but upwards
to the heights of the clouds, where the invisible spirit soars,
bestowing its honoured attention on you to seek and find the meaning
of your life, the happiness without end.
9.
"(...)
there will be moments when life has no meaning and there will be
moments when it does and it will go on like this until the end of
time (life is not always fair)."
Life
is not fair in the framework in which it is now, but that is not
life's fault, it is the fault of those who have forced it into that
framework. But we have the promise that the Lord of Life will change
this seemingly eternal state of affairs, because he has the power
and, above all, the motivation to do so. For what He has given, He
has embedded in the beginning in love, and He will not allow it to be
prevented from returning to the wheel in which He planned it at the
beginning. "But we look for new heavens and a new earth
according to his promise, in which dwells righteousness. Therefore,
beloved, while you wait for these things, strive to be found without
spot and without blemish in peace." (2 Peter 3:14-15) And your
bitter moments today are but fleeting shadows compared to what
eternity will offer.
10.
"(...)
People are just drops in real life. Life is a finite thing that we
use as long as God wills. When a life goes out, a new life is born -
that is the order of life."
The
new life is never because the old one is extinguished, because it
does not follow one from the other, but because there is the
possibility of passing on the genetic program, and the one who lives
with it passes on life. The will of God oversees this order, and
there is a reason for the extinction of human life. He who is aware
of that, is aware of his possibilities. But this is not given to him
in the school, but must be gathered by each one himself, after he has
escaped from the spiritual influence of those who preach the
merry-go-round of life.
11.
"What
I like about human life is that it's unpredictable, so it's exciting.
A lot of people try to find meaning in it (...). I think it's to
leave a mark (...)"
The
fossilization of the moment is an eternal wish, but it is our fate
now that what is dear to us and often achingly beautiful, flies far
away. Thus beauty and pain are mixed, the exuberance of youth and the
forced twilight of old age. But if it always remained so, there would
be no point in the series of experiences we live, enjoy and lose. To
leave a trace in the dust? The pyramids are traces of a bygone era.
But they did not make those who left them happy. You must leave a
trace in the heart of the one who gave you life, a trace of your love
and affection for Him. And if you live in His love, death cannot
catch you. Until now, perhaps, but it cannot dictate what is itself
the inevitable consequence of a dictation. Death is not a component
of life, but the absence of a component called obedience.
12.
"Life
is a miracle.(...) We are born, we live, we die. (...) Take care of
it, because we only have one life! (...) But when death comes, we
can't do anything, we have to go with it. Because it always lets us
live at least a little. (...) Many people are afraid of it, but it
will come one day and then life will be cut short. When life stops,
we leave the earth (...)"
Twelve-year-old
little anatomist, how well he sees cause and effect. When life stops,
we leave the living. But the miracle of life is more than this, for a
miracle is a miracle because it is above the events of everyday life.
The miracle of life is above death, and since this is an eternal law,
the law of eternal death cannot prevail over that which supersedes
it. But eternal life will triumph over death. That there is now a
little digression is for a reason, and he who knows it knows the
secret of life. The secret of eternal life.
13.
"(...)
No one has ever proved what happens after death! (...) Let us take
care of our life, because we must appreciate the fact that we can
live! Thank you to everyone who can make this happen! (...)"
Gratitude
in the heart for life is the sign of the incorruptible heart, which
is the petal-opening symptom of man's incorruptible beauty even in
this age. It is bound up with an appreciation of what it extends to
others. So too the flower shines in the sunlight and exudes a
stunningly pleasant fragrance. The bees are drawn to it, to the man
who can express his love, as he is allowed to express his feelings at
this young age.
14.
"(...)
People on earth are very lucky to be alive. They also have many
difficult tasks to solve. A lot of external and internal pain. But we
also have a lot of wonderful things happening to us (...)"
Life
is more than luck that the land you live on provides the conditions
for living. It is like a bed that has been made, like a blanket that
has been prepared, like the rustle of the wind, like the suggestion
of a mother's love that is protecting. The love of the one who has
provided it for us shines through the veil we call chance luck.
Chance fortune in itself removes, beyond it we must see and feel the
consciousness lurking in the caressing Being, which brings us close,
through much outer and inner pain, to the eternal source of miracles.
Learn to hear the word given not only through the sources of joy, but
also in the book in which it speaks to us."Thus says the Lord
(Jehovah), your Saviour, the Holy One of Israel, 'I am the Lord
(Jehovah) your God, who teaches you useful things and leads you in
the way you should go. If you had heeded my commandments, your peace
would have been like rivers of water, and your righteousness like the
waves of the sea..." (Isaiah 48:17-18)
15.
"(...)
life is to be enjoyed, because it doesn't last long.(...) It is a
gift that we receive from the earth. (...) Thank you for letting me
live!"
The
words of a child, "Thank you for allowing me to live,"
pierce through many a pain, both external and internal. The words of
a true adult who, despite his youth, has ripened the fruit of
gratitude. The human conscience is God's flower garden, in which God
waters the fragrance of the flowers dear to him.
16.
"For
me, life is very important, because if it is lost, it can never be
given back (...) Life begins with birth. (...) It ends with death.
But people think about it in different ways. Some people believe that
only the body dies and the soul goes to heaven. Others believe that
the soul is reborn in a new body at some point. Many are of the
opinion that our dead will decompose and enter the cycle of life.
(...) Between life and death, good and bad things happen, but it is
up to us to decide which one will be more. The meaning of life is to
find the way you were put on this earth to live."
You
can see that it is up to us whether we give up the success of finding
the whole for the sake of the partial successes. The people of the
limelight do indeed live for the fleeting lights that fascinate them,
like insects captivated by their own light trap. The search for a way
is not a resignation to them, but a conscious transcendence of them.
He who chooses the pleasure of today over the satisfaction of
tomorrow condemns himself to live with the agonizing consciousness of
dissatisfaction. For he lives by attachments, bows to them, pays
homage to them with burning fervour. And the splendour of appearances
becomes a crumbling hovel when it is gone in the end. He who goes
away knowing that he has found and cherished the meaning of his life
does not go away forever. "Verily, verily, I say unto you, he
that keepeth my doctrine shall not taste death for ever."(John
8:51)
17.
"(...)
All living things are born, live and eventually die. (...) Life you
feel is there, but you don't know what it is. (...) what the purpose
of life is, perhaps it is to carry on, to pass on. But one thing is
certain, life is the most beautiful thing on earth and perhaps the
most complicated.".
"But,
behold, I have found this, that God created man righteous; and they
sought much devising." (Ecclesiastes 7:29) Thus, the simple
became a complicated chain of events, jumbled together by man. When
you live by your own head and don't even listen to your own
conscience. To the good word within you, the straightener of your
vocation, which guides you through life's obstacles, through the
wanderings of beautiful experiences, and through the stormy fields of
bitter soberings. For this path that surrounds you was not paved by
you, but by your superiors, your frontier-makers, who, longing for
the recognition of others, went there to the firestorm of deceptive
lights. You may not have to choose that fate, the limelight that when
it goes out, goes out for good. But you are given a light that shines
through the worn shields of unbelief and denial to show you the way
to true life. It is true through trial, but what you gain from it
will be yours inalienably. Do not allow yourself to be broken by the
compulsion of popular indifference with which the masses grace
themselves. You are destined for far more than you can believe or
imagine. Look up, then, to the true lights, and leave the deceptive
light of shooting stars to those who stumble in their own doubts,
because they have chosen the pleasures of transience over the
fulfillment of the promises of the eternal.„For God, who
commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shone in our hearts
to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of
Jesus Christ.”(2 Corinthians 4:6)
Atheism
is the playing of cards that are only good for fanning their own
hypocritical vanity.

MY DEAR ATHEIST FRIEND!
Well,
here's the challenge: Go into a room so that no one can see you, and
prove to those outside the room who can't see you that you
exist.
Proving God exists is the same as proving you exist
in the room. If you cannot give evidence of yourself, though you
certainly are, you cannot give evidence of God, though he is. So your
lack of evidence is insufficient in both cases. But if you have
evidence of yourself, you have evidence of God, the two are
connected!
You cannot do anything that God does not do.
For example, you cannot shout out of the room, "Hello, I'm in
the room," because God doesn't shout loudly to mankind from
above, "Hello, people, I'm up here in the sky invisible, can you
hear my voice? God does not prove himself in this way.
My atheist friend, don't call anybody on the phone,
because God doesn't call anybody. Don't bang on the door, for God
doesn't bang on any door. God only doesn't let those who bang on his
door with their fists near him.
Even if you put a blank
piece of paper under the door, it is not evidence of you, because the
wind blew in through the open window and it slipped out from under
the door. Don't put a photograph out either, because God doesn't show
a photograph of himself. So you can't do anything that God doesn't
do. Don't forget that for a moment. You are in the room, but you have
to find the non-false proof of your own existence.
You
say, "I think, therefore I am. That's good enough for me."-
That's not a good answer, because even if God says that, He's not
proving Himself to outsiders that He exists. But you have to prove to
outsiders that you are in the room, even though they can't see you.
You don't have to prove it to yourself, you have to prove it to
others. In the same way, atheists ask believers to prove that
God exists.
If I say God thinks, therefore he exists, you
get a big laugh at it with your shoulder, satanic grin. So that is
not a good answer, that thinking is sufficient proof. Just because a
person is thinking inside the room is not proof to outsiders that he
is inside the room.
So the question is how does an atheist
prove his own existence from inside a room where no one can see
him?
The key to the invisible existence of God is the key
to your invisible existence. If you give evidence of yourself, you
can discover that God has given the same evidence of himself. You
have to find that evidence of what it is. Because you are in the room
and God is in the spirit world. Both are invisible to outsiders.
„How
long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners
delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? Turn you at my
reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make
known my words unto you. Because I have called, and ye refused; I
have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; But ye have set at
nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: I also will
laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh; When your
fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a
whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you. Then shall they
call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but
they shall not find me: For that they hated knowledge, and did not
choose the fear of the Lord: They would none of my counsel: they
despised all my reproof. Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of
their own way, and be filled with their own devices. For the turning
away of the simple shall slay them, and the prosperity of fools shall
destroy them. But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and
shall be quiet from fear of evil.”(Proverbs
1:22-33, KJV)
Man's choice is not the result of
God's omniscience.

the thought further, if one is in a room where no one can see and has
no effect on the outside environment, but assumes or even knows that
some people are expected to pass in the hallway outside the door who
have no idea that the person is inside, how can the outsider say that
they could not have done otherwise than to leave before the door
because the one in the room knew in advance that they were going to
leave. So there was nothing else I could do. Only by his
foreknowledge he had already influenced my free will, so I could do
nothing else but go before the door, because he who was in the room
knew in advance that I was going to leave? Not at all, the two have
nothing to do with each other!
The
atheist says the same thing, he couldn't help but become an atheist,
because God knows in advance that he will become an atheist, because
he doesn't have the faith in Him, because he is incapable of it. But
God is responsible for this, that although he knew beforehand that he
would become an unbeliever, he created him. If he did not know, he is
not omnipotent. So God's omniscience disproves free will, that it
does not exist. That's what the game is all about.
Atheism
is proof of free will, that they have chosen this worldview and not
the Christian faith.
The only problem is that an atheist's choice is completely independent of God's thinking, because God is not nudging him to become an atheist, he wants him to convert to the opposite."For
he wants all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the
truth."(1Timothy 2:4) To which the atheist replies that
he cannot repent because God knew beforehand that he would not
repent, so he can do nothing but remain an atheist.
Clearly,
there is a logical trap being set for God here, in which His
foreknowledge prevents any free will action, i.e., He is responsible
for any action of anyone that He foreknows. And because of
foreknowledge, no one can do anything other than what is dictated to
him by foreknowledge.
This
notion is false because going forward in the corridor is absolutely
independent of what someone in the room thinks, whether someone will
go down the corridor or not. Especially if you are leaving and happen
to stumble just outside the door and break your neck.
It's
fair to ask: what if the police come and ask you if you know anything
about the death and you say, I expected some people to pass my door
and they'll hold you responsible for not telling me in advance? Hello!
Those of you who have passed my door, don't break your necks, watch
your step! I don't think the police are going to arrest him for that.
A
man walking down the corridor has free will, regardless of what
anyone thinks of him. The two have absolutely nothing to do with each
other. The atheist decides for himself what he does and why, as is
evident from the fact that there are so many different ways of
thinking about how to run his life. The logical stumbling block is in
their reasoning, and that they tripped up and broke their necks just
outside the door is entirely their fault, no one else's. Especially
that there was a sign at the beginning of the corridor: watch your
step!
"He
that believeth on him shall not be condemned: but he that believeth
not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of
the only begotten Son of God."
(John 3:18)
What
God knows in advance about whom has nothing to do with what man
chooses. If there were no free will, there would be no A la Carte
menu in restaurants, only menus, and only one kind of menu.
The
atheist wants to put the responsibility of his choice on God, that he
could do nothing else, because he is only doing what God knows in
advance he will do. It's just a question of how does the man walking
down the hall know what the man in the room thinks?
If
the atheist decides in advance what he will do, that is his business.
God only takes note of what he has thought, from which it can be
deduced what he will do.
If he is very stubborn in his
disobedience to God, God can harden his heart, as He hardened the
heart of Pharaoh of Egypt who resisted God's will to let the people
of Israel go. (Exodus 3:19; 5:2; 7:3) So if someone acts wickedly
against God, God will harden his heart in his wickedness!!!
"The
Lord is able to deliver the righteous from temptation, and to reserve
the wicked for punishment in the day of judgment."(2 Peter 2:9)
The
atheist is told to let go of his denial of God, not to cling to it,
for it will not end well. But he clings to it all the more. And he
blames God for his own evil deeds. Because it is not his fault.
But
it's all his fault. He may be influenced by his immediate or wider
environment, but he makes the final decision. Faith without evidence
is pinned on believers to distract attention from the unproven
unbelief hanging around their necks.
The god question is a
choice of heart and mind, one chooses the position one holds in one's
mind and heart.
"Surely
with your eyes you will see the punishment of the wicked! For [thou
hast said], The Lord /YHVH/is my
refuge: thou hast chosen the Most High to be thy tabernacle: ...
Because he clings to me, I will deliver him, I will exalt him,
because he knows my name! He calleth me to help him, therefore will I
hear him: I will be with him in his warfare: I will deliver him, and
glorify him. I will satisfy him with long life, and will show him my
salvation."(Psalms 91:8-9, 14-16)

The
chess pieces are ready to play chess on the chess table. It is
obvious that the pieces cannot create themselves and the chessboard.
The course of chess is like the course of evolution, with certain
forms of movement taking place according to certain rules. But there
must also be an origin.
The
basic question is: - Where did the first subjects of the initial
organisms capable of evolution come from, which could not have been
created by evolution, because then evolution would have created its
own capability by evolution? Where did the capabilities come from by
which the alleged evolution takes place? How can evolution ensure
this, when it depends on their existence?! So the subjects of
evolution must first be created. Darwinism has already failed here!
"The
evolutionary units must have the "trick" of reproducing,
they must have heredity, they must have hereditary variation... The
basic problem is that the first evolutionary units could not have
arisen by evolution, because they did not have the necessary
properties at that time." /Evolutionary biologist Eörs Szathmáry/
The
origin of the rules of chess is like the origin of the genetic code
that controls life. "However,
this suggestion, even if plausible, is only one side of a much more
general and difficult problem, perhaps the most formidable problem in
all of evolutionary biology. In fact, it goes without saying that any
scenario of the origin and evolution of the code will remain empty
unless it is combined with an understanding of the coding principle
itself and the translation system that embodies it. At the heart of
this problem lies a terrible vicious circle: WHAT SHOULD BE THE
SELECTIVE FORCE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SYSTEM OF TRANSLATION
INCLUDING A SYSTEM OF SYSTEMS, WHAT WOULD BE THE FACTUAL FEATURES?
AND OF COURSE, THERE CAN BE NO PROTEIN WITHOUT A SUFFICIENTLY
EFFICIENT TRANSLATION SYSTEM."/The origin and evolution of the genetic code: the universal mystery
- https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3293468/
It
is like having the description of the whole system of chess hidden in
the minds of the chess pieces, which are inside the closed chess
table. In order to build the chess table with the chess pieces, the
construction information hidden in the heads of the chess pieces is
needed. The need for one implies the need for the other. In order to
play chess, both component factors are needed at the same time. This
is the vicious circle. And there is no such thing as which came
first, because both are needed at the same time!
The
execution of chess according to the rules.
In
principle, to create from a single stem cell [LUCA - protobacterium]
any species that did not exist before, could only and exclusively be
by long term controlled selection - just as in artificial
selection, specific species are bred under constant supervision. But
the unguided operation of natural selection, which is "essentially
a random wandering in the field of genetic possibilities"/Stephen
Hawking/, is directed at selecting the most viable individuals of
existing species, not at selection for species. Therefore, it is not
possible to evolve basic species by a blind evolutionary mechanism,
in which the evolutionary mechanism can already exert its effects by
inducing flexible adaptation to the natural environment. And there is
not one such species, but millions!
The
moves with the chess pieces are so different that they cannot be
mixed, because we move the king differently and the queen
differently, etc. If we want to create a healthy herd, we breed
healthy subjects and exclude the stunted from breeding. For example,
if we want to breed cows that milk well, we do not focus on selecting
healthy cows, we focus on selecting cows that milk well.
"Breeding
Holstein-Friesian cattle is focused on maximising milk production,
which requires rigorous genetic selection and a well thought-out
breeding programme. The aim of breeding is to produce animals with
high milk yields, balanced conformation and longevity"
-https://www.anivetdirect.hu/fajtaismertetok/szarvasmarha/holstein-friz
If
you select and mate only healthy cows, you will never get a
Holstein-Friesian that will produce very good milk.
And
natural selection chooses the first of the two options, selecting the
healthy ones, the ones with the best adaptive capacity, adapted to
the dynamically changing natural environment, to maintain the
species, its representatives ensuring the succession of generations.
"Chess is the only game that completely removes itself from the tyranny of chance." (Stefan Zweig)
Chess
is not possible by the random wandering of chess pieces according to
the possibilities provided by the chess table, while spontaneous
evolution is "essentially random wandering in the field of
genetic possibilities". Wandering around the chessboard with the
chess pieces is only good for keeping the pieces on the chessboard,
but it is neither giving chess nor getting chess. Especially not
mate.
Evolution
is constantly subject to the tyranny of chance due to the effects of
a changing environment.
It
is equally impracticable for any cell to reproduce itself according
to a system that is based on some kind of species trait. For that
requires a strategic pathway, and for that a precisely controlled and
monitored selection pressure maintained constantly in the necessary
direction. And as many species (theoretically hypothetical series of
branchings in practice) evolve from that stem cell, so many different
selection pressures are needed, which implies following the principle
of artificial selection.
But
there is no relation between the two, as letting cows roam free on
the breeding field is hardly the best breeding strategy. Having chess
pieces roaming around on the chess table is the same and no
different. The natural selection of existing species is for the
survival of viable individuals and populations, but this process has
nothing to do with some imaginary ancient species of unknown origin
[LUCA] evolving into millions of different species merely on the
basis of viable individuals reproducing through the means and
framework provided by their genetic program. [See the rules of
chess.]
Thus,
the subjects of evolution that we see today successfully surviving in
their natural environment cannot be provided by the process of
evolution itself from the very beginning, especially given the
necessary fine-tuning between the living being and its environment,
which is provided by genetic control. And in the control there must
be invisible information.
"Suppose
you have 100 nucleotides. You accidentally hit that structure on the
first try. And then what? You have one piece. And there should be
tens of millions! Quite sure it will never happen again. The random
creation of nucleic acids with the exact structure is TOTALLY
UNPOSSIBLE! Without it there is no material life structure. And
nucleic acid is only one of the tasks, it must be produced proteins,
hormones, sugars, fats, everything. This is the chemical picture of
living. There can be no coincidence behind causal events!"
/Baumann,
biochemist Miklós Baumann: Origin or creation! - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVcPGUrgMNg/
Just
as on the chess board the good moves are controlled, in nature there
is genetic control to allow the endgame to unfold, the successful
survival of the living creature on nature's board. This is the
realisation of an adaptation that can adapt to natural changes
through formal and trait refinements. /Species variability by
exploiting the genetic potential within its own species/. This is
what evolution, adaptation, not phylogeny, means from the ground up.
Just
as the pieces of a chess game cannot create the subjects needed to
play chess, evolution cannot provide the subjects capable of
evolving. The biological process as a process of the game of chess is
in a ready-to-operate, equipped state, and does not equip itself.
What equips it is none other than a conscious, invisible divine
intelligence, which certain circles explicitly deny. And the reason
for the denial is nothing less than to dominate the whole process in
order to deprive the participants in the process /people/ of the full
realization of their potential.
Manipulation
is never disinterested, it is the desire of the manipulators to
dominate the manipulated. To use the appropriate term: to keep them
at bay by stifling their potential.
Summary:
1.
Chess can only work with ready-made chess tools, just as evolution
can only work with ready-made subjects.
2.The
chess tools must be created, like the table, pieces and rules, the
genetic code that drives evolution requires the same tuning and
combination.
3.You
cannot play chess by wandering around with chess pieces, nor can you
make purposeful progress by random moves, nor can you blindly create
a non-existent species with complete anatomical and trait
characteristics.
4.The
essence of evolution is adaptation, as in chess, movement in relation
to the position of the pieces on the chessboard, a directed sequence
of moves.
"Darwin's
principle essentially says that there can be evolution in populations
of individuals that reproduce, that inherit certain traits, but that
this inheritance is not exact, that occasionally errors occur, and
that if the inherited traits affect how successfully the individual
survives and how fertile it is, then evolution by natural selection
will occur in the population of such individuals. Done. That's what
we're dead sure of." /Evolutionary biologist Eörs Szatmáry/
These
alleged defects are nothing more than genetically-based expressions
of variability, but as it turns out, genetic mutations do not occur
randomly.
"The
results of a new study have dramatically challenged the established
theory of evolution. For years, we have thought that genetic
mutations occur randomly - but new research suggests they are much
less random than originally thought." (Genetic
mutations are not random -https://frontlinegenomics.com/genetic-mutations-may-not-be-random/
This
is the so-called microevolution at the species level. And so-called
macroevolution above the species level does not exist, as we have
seen, because macroevolution is the evolution of an ancient cell into
a specific species, and there is no one-way selection pressure in
nature over millions of years that would result in selection for a
species trait that is a strategic goal in artificial breeding.
"In
evolution, there is no such thing as 'permanent advantage', only
'temporary advantage' for the time and place in which the organism
happens to reside. The same thing that enables survival today may
kill you tomorrow."/Steven
HaddockToronto,
Quora/
5. If
evolution is a development in itself, why did the theory of evolution
not develop on its own, why did it need Darwin and his intellectual
successors to develop it? If the theoretical process required
intelligence, why did the physical process not require intelligence?
Is it not conscious antipathy that denies the divine background
intelligence at all costs?! Or is the whole evolutionary process
nothing more than an expression of an atheistic scientific worldview
that deliberately rejects any spiritual entity capable of dominating
matter and controlling it through natural laws?!
If
we consider that the adherence of people brought up on mainstream
science to their own arbitrary moral laws trumps all other
priorities, then it is understandable why this requires an adherence
to the theory of evolution, which could provide a scientific
justification for this worldview. But that it cannot is amply
demonstrated by the reasons given in this paper.

made it possible for us to become intellectually fulfilled atheists.”/Richard Dawkins, The Blind Watchmaker (London: Penguin, 1991) 6./
