CONSPIRACY

The conspiracy against the culture

The CHP doesn't get involved much in the politics of education.  After all, we believe in honoring the Constitution, which places education firmly in the jurisdiction of the provinces. There are provincial political parties that share the CHP's commitment to Biblical principles — such as the Family Coalition Party in Ontario — and we endorse them, because our joint commitment to reliance on a higher Source of knowledge transcends constitutional politics.

I thought about these linkages recently after reading books by authors writing in two widely-divergent fields:

Gary North's book, The war Against Mel Gibson notes, in passing, that the Italian communist Antonio Gramsci re-defined Marxism for the post-war era by writing that for a global revolution to succeed, it could not rely on Communist economics (which have failed everywhere they’ve ever been tried); it must first destroy faith in whatever religion undergirds a nation’s culture.

Then I read James Perloff's Tornado in a Junkyard, which exposes the religious fervor with which Darwinian and neo-Darwinian evolutionists promote their ideology — some even admitting that their faith in evolution is held despite a complete lack of evidence! — and openly state that their goal is to abolish faith in the Judeo-Christian God of Creation.

Isn’t it appalling that those to whom we entrust the education of our children could be so devious that they’ll even distort the evidence to promulgate a known lie?

Consider this, for example: Dr. Lee Spetner, Professor of Communications and Information Theory at Johns Hopkins University, who holds a doctorate in Physics, is a recognized expert in probability theory. He has calculated that the odds of developing even a single new species by ‘mutation and natural selection’ are one in 102378.  That's one followed by 2,378 zeroes.  To illustrate how vast those odds are: scientists estimate that the total number of atoms in the whole universe is 1080. The odds against even one species arising by random chance are 30 orders of magnitude greater than the number of all the atoms in the universe  — and yet evolutionists want us to believe that all species came into being by just such mutations!

Evolutionists believe in miracles, all right — but they refuse to believe in the God who performs miracles! To cite the title of another recent book — one every open-minded person should read  — “I Don't Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist!”

But there’s a much more important conclusion to this argument than merely deciding that the Bible is right and Darwin is wrong. It’s this: these facts show that there is a conspiracy to destroy faith in the culture that created Western Civilization. It involves the media, the universities, our courts and law schools, and the whole tax-funded public education system.

The most important action we, as citizens, can embrace is to stop governments — whether federal or provincial — from continuing to act like enemies of the culture.

Any politician or party that isn’t committed to that remedy is part of the problem.
