It is a belief system that turns great profit for the merchants of exploitation and war who promote it. The belief that nature is evil also drives the violent xenophobia that has plagued society throughout history. Even evolutionary biologists and social scientists often adhere to this negativity as...

Randomness that created Life and the Earth can be shown to be nothing but "Science Fiction." But it takes "insanity" to believe the impossibility of the #FrankensteinProblem. The rest of the book is Christian Morality about Love for our...
