“The Lord looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one” (Psalms 14:2–3).

The Big Bang Theory is a cosmological or world view theory which postulates that the universe originated approximately 20 billion years ago from the violent explosion of a very small agglomeration of matter of extremely high density and temperature. Literally billions of dollars have already been spent by various nations of the world trying to prove the Big Bang Theory is correct. To date, there has been no reward for the billions spent.

Now, scientists in France want almost 13 billion more dollars to build a 31 mile tunnel called the International Linear Collider. “Instead of whirling atoms in giant rings, as CERN, a particle physics laboratory outside Geneva, and the smaller Tevatron at Fermilab near Chicago do, scientists want a new-generation machine that will shoot them straight” (Associated Press, Emma Vandore, Business Writer).

Whatever information gathering value there may be in smashing atoms, what is missing in the elusive search for the Big Bang theory is a bonified rationale for the inquiry which is not based on science. Some simple questions still remain. “By what mechanism did the original explosion take place?” “If men with impressive machines do replicate a Big Bang, does that not speak of intelligent design?” And if intelligent design recreated an event how much greater is the Intelligent Designer of the original creation without machines?” “Can everything come out of nothing?” “Can order come out of disorder?”

Personally, I cannot help but think that what is ultimately driving the quest to prove The Big Bang theory is a desire to dismiss God and to show the universe does not need Him. The cosmological view of secular humanism, which often masquerades under the cloak of science, is that the universe is self-created, self-generated, and self-sustaining, until of course it dies out in the distant future through the natural law of entropy.

It is important to remember that the Big Bang theory is exactly that; it is a theory spawned in the minds of men, many of whom are emotionally driven by a philosophy of atheism which forms their cosmology. But that is not science. It is religion, the religion of secular humanism. Such a religion hurts multitudes of people by diverting billions of dollars from other areas of legitimate research, such as trying to find a cure for cancer.

That so many nations willingly fund the godless quest to prove The Big Bang Theory is a human tragedy.  There is a high cost on earth that people pay for a non-scientific theory in support of a humanistic worldview.  It is all very foolish.

One of the great myths of secular humanism is that history reveals the existence of primitive men evolving from a common ancestor. You have probably seen the artistic rendition of how these primitive ape-like people looked using their stone tools. Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that, even if evolution were true, and it is not, man has not “evolved” very far if at all in his morals.

Not too many years ago missionaries went to New Guinea to convert the pagan and primitive people there. Cannibalism was still being practiced. Men would go into a village, capture a hostage by the hair,  use a bamboo knife to slit open his stomach, pull out the intestines, cut off the fingers, and eat as much of the person as possible while the individual was still alive (Russell T. Hitt, Cannibal Valley, Hodder and Stoughton, 1963).

It is still happening. In 1968 two missionaries, Australian Stan Dole and American Phil Masters, were captured, cut up, and eaten. During Christmas 1974, four Dutch families were killed and eaten by aborigines in the Jayawijaya Mountains. In 1976 there was the killing of a priest and his twelve companions. It allegedly happened because the missionaries tried to ban the aborigines from hunting for skulls and because they burnt the fetuses of the natives.

As horrific as all that is, it pales in comparison with so-called modern civilized nations that cut living people day after day. In the United States of America the average slicing up of humans amounts to one and a half million per year, and it all done under the protection of the law. That is what abortion is. Abortion is the cutting up of people alive and sucking out the bits and pieces of their bodies.

Why did such butchery happen in “primitive” societies like Papua New Guinea? Why does it continue to happen on a daily basis in “civilized” societies? The answer is this. Man has embraced an evolutionary concept that rejects God and His absolutes. When this is done the natural corruptions found in the human heart will be manifested without shame and legalized. Jesus explained what the natural state of the human heart is. Matthew 15:19, "For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies."

While the public schools continue to teach the lie of evolution, the Bible presents the devolution of man. Originally created in the image of God and without sin, man transgressed the known will of the Lord and went from an exalted state to a lower state of existence. Conservative theologians refer to this as “The Fall”. That is the bad news. The good news is that despite the ruin of man, there is redemption in Christ through the regenerating work of the Holy Spirit. However, for regeneration to take place the primitive state of modern man has to be acknowledged. Individuals must look inward and confess their sinfulness, and then look upward and plead for God to be merciful to them as sinners. Herein is the hope of salvation. There are consequences for rejecting God, His grace, and personal salvation. One manifestation of the dismissal of God and His Moral Law is the cannibalization of our own children. The soul without God is the primitive modern man.

In our modern western world where the thought prevails that no absolutes exist and all points of view are equally relevant, it is hard to see how the Christian church has lost its historical influence upon society. But the reason is simple: God’s people have been influenced by that part of secular humanism which teaches all people should tolerate the views of others. This is a concept that Jesus never taught nor practiced. Listen to Christ as He proclaimed of Himself and said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (1 John 14:6). Remember the teaching of the Lord’s apostles as they declared to a mixed multitude of religious people, “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). Because the church has capitulated to the thinking of secular humanism on critical concepts, not only has she lost her moral influence she has also lost the ideological battle for there is a spiritual domino effect. If the leading domino falls the others will tumble as well. And so it is that evolution now finds an ascendency over creationism, homosexuality is almost as acceptable as heterosexuality, and relativism has replaced a systemic belief in absolutes.

If the church is to find her self-confidence to proclaim the gospel message and once more influence culture for the glory of God, she must first remember that it is logical and proper to be one hundred percent biased for Christ and the Bible and for good reason: all other systems of belief are equally one hundred percent biased as well. The concept of enlightened people being tolerate of other religious points of view is one of the cleverest lies the church has ever embraced. Consider the evidence.

The bias of atheism is that no God exists. The practical influence of atheism is that the existence of a Creator, let alone a Supreme Being, cannot even be considered. Therefore, atheism is one hundred percent biased in its worldview.

The bias of the agnostic is that a person does not know, cannot know, and really does not care to know. The practical influence of the agnostic is that a definite role of God must be excluded. Is this system of belief “open”? It is not. It too is one hundred percent biased.

Theism comes no closer to the truth but only deduces the existence of God. It then capitulates to the concept of there actually being universal moral absolutes and advocates tolerance. The term theism was first used by the English philosopher Ralph Cudworth (1617–1688). His sermons, such as that preached before the House of Commons, on 31 March 1647, advocate principles of religious toleration and charity. Theism is also one hundred percent biased.

If atheism, agnosticism, and theism can and are one hundred percent biased, then there is no shame for the Christian to stand firm and say, “I am one hundred percent biased in favor of revealed truth.” Revealed theology fully embraces the idea that God has revealed Himself in the Person and work of Jesus Christ, and has also revealed many other absolute reference points in the Bible. Yes, revealed truth is one hundred percent biased.

Therefore, let every Christian stop being ashamed and stop feeling guilty for being intolerant of every false  system of belief for Jesus has promised the church, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32). With the truth comes the salvation of souls and the redemption of society for the Savior.
