that story ended in 2006

its one thing to hybridize plants, but this is taking dna in a lab and cutting and splicing God's design, inserting what was never to be there before, mixing kind

what our corn and soy products are now, and the rats get tumors, look at the effects of the plant producing glyphophates and how it stops the enzymatic process of weeds, what does it do to the human body? kidney damage?

look at the genetically modified goats! they spliced silk worm dna into the dna of a goat so that when you milk the goat, you can extract silk from it. the animals die young and its a wasteful process.

then look at how we make it sooo difficult for a farmer to raise a natural sheep to naturally grow wool and to sell that healthy product to humans.

So yes, we have a responsibility in this. "Train up a child in the way he should go and he will not depart from it"

reading about mendel. through the church (I'm assuming he had a creationist understanding of the world), he experimented with peas to see what traits would be produced. he discovered the dominant/recessive traits. He presented this to a group of academics who basically fell asleep.

this was the same era as Darwin, darwins antiGod, racist theories took storm.

here were two men in the same era, it was the creationist who understood the passing on of traits.

they should've listened to mendel instead of Darwin, instead we got the chemical model, Pasteur discovered germs only for the sake of killing them (not knowing our bodies are made up of more bacterium than our own cells, and that we depend on them for our immune system, digestion and health)

then you've got the marketing aspect. it is easy to acquire chemicals and sell them for millions. it takes a decentralized economy of fathers and mothers and God-fearing individuals to create from the earth health and community.

so science is a big fraud in many aspects.

For instance, I am reading, the cornerstone of Zion is Christ and those who believe in Christ are the living stones. This is explained in 1 Peter 2. So if he wants to see Zion in action, he might join some Redeemed Jews and Gentiles in their worship of the Cornerstone.

Or perhaps they might read to him verse 9, and there he will find out who the holy nation is.

"But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people, that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light."

Here's hoping that the called out ones don't stumble over the stumblers, and reserve their allegiance to their King.

Christ, "Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature" Col 1:15

And believers are the temple of the Holy Spirit.

Looks like the temple is built in the redeemed man and God's purposes are completed in the proclamation of the gospel.

they're looking in the wrong place for it, all those false religions like the one Jim is in.

the fulfillment has come with the Messiah and He returns to judge the living and the dead.
