We Are Not a Christian Nation -
Pastor Loran Livingston tells us why
Loran Livingston
0:00
"We're not a Christian nation."
(I have always maintained that
See: Wednesday, August 9, 2017
"You see,
a Christian nation would not have killed and displaced
20 million Native Americans who are still
marginalized and suffering greatly.
A Christian nation would never have thought that owning slaves
was somehow pleasing to God and okay to do or that it lined up with scripture.
Not only did we practice it, but it was so important to us
that we split a nation, had a civil war,
fought against each other, and 500,000
Americans died
because some people wanted
to own as property other people.
More people, more Americans died in the Civil War
than any other war we've ever fought in the history of this country,
including World War II.'
(He goes on and obviously
our positions on abortion differ.)
"No Christian nation would thoughtlessly murder
80 million unborn babies, mostly minorities.
thoughtlessly throw them in a trash can and be done with it.
Mostly minorities.
I'm pro-choice. People say,
"Well, uh, you are for the most racist stance
in this country, knowing that abortion affects minorities
more than anybody else."
And you stand for that."
(No soul?
No murder
and scripture is quite clear
nobody knows
when the soul enters the body
Ecclesiastes 11:5
As thou knowest not
what is the way of the spirit,
(The breath of life)
nor how the bones do grow
in the womb of her that is with child:
even so thou knowest not
the works of God who maketh all.
Not saying I like it,
agree with it etc
just saying
NOBODY KNOWS
if it was murder or not.
When you can tell me why the wind blows
in the manner it does?
Then you can tell me
when the soul enters the body.
Till then?
Im not listening much.
And if you go all:
Jeremiah 1:5
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
before you were born I set you apart;
I appointed you as a prophet to the nations
I'll say look at the context.
And if you go all:
"God even knows the hairs of your head"
on me:
I'll probably bring up
something about predestination:
Revelation 13:8, Revelation 17:8
When was Rahab saved?
Same as you and me.
When our names were written
in the Lambs book of life
BEFORE:
THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD
David and Moses were murders BTW.
Just sayin...sometimes we like to forget things.)
"Do you think a Christian nation would be gender confused?
A Christian nation would fund and finance the butchering of children's bodies to
change their sex because abusive adults
were so empty and lost that they would advise young children
who don't even understand biology much less the sexual process to have their bodies changed."
(We should have been on the look out for
"hybrids" of all kinds years ago.)
"Do you think a Christian nation would praise and promote same sex union? No, sir.
A woman marrying a woman and a man marrying a man.
You notice I said union. I didn't say marriage. T
he only definition of marriage is one woman and one man.
or any other perverted union."
"Could could a could the conscience of a Christian nation
allow that nation to spend billions of dollars on sports stadiums
while the poor, the hungry, the jobless
sit in the shadow of those arenas in rat infested low
income housing.
No Christian nation wouldn't stand for that.
No Christian nation's heart
would allow sports and entertainment to
become more important
than the Bible, God's word, godly instruction,
and basic skills in school like reading,
writing, adding, subtracting, counting back change.
Nope. A Christian nation wouldn't let only the prospective great athletes have
all the privileges and all the wealthy people have all of the blessings.

"Interpreters bible exposition
Living in an Unreal World.
(Indeed we are)
The picture the man of Patmos paints is fairly fantastic in its evil confusion. The true God is ignored. The beast is worshiped. The lifeless image breathes and speaks words of wicked power. A phantasmagoria of evil has taken the place of the reign of good. The false vitality of wickedness masters the state. What seems real to men is actually unreal to them. What for the moment seems unreal to them is the eternal rule of GOD.

I thought they were out of missiles?
intended to show force, reveal another weakness
Washington Post Oct 14th 1 AM EDT
"...no matter how many times Russia fires at Ukraine, pro-war Russian nationalists want more, even though targeting civilian infrastructure is potentially a war crime."
"But the hawks, who are demanding publicly on TV broadcasts and on Telegram to know why Russia does not hit more high value targets, won’t like the answer: The Russian military appears to lack sufficient accurate missiles to sustain airstrikes at Monday’s tempo, according to Western military analysts.
(Baloney. your Western Military analysts are flat out wrong. The reason they aren't hitting more high value targets is to draw this conflict out as long as they can, and only a select few know it, that's why the Russian war hawks aren't being told and wont be told whats going on. Mob bosses dont go around telling every lieutenant exactly what they are up to. Too many cooks spoils the dinner etc...)
(Added today:
As stated all over this blog:
Drawing this conflict out
lessens NATO and US
missile/drone/weapons stockpiles
it was kinda the point of it.)
“They are low on precision guided missiles,” said Konrad Muzyka, founder of Gdansk, Poland-based Rochan Consulting, offering his assessment of Russia’s sporadic air attacks. “That is essentially the only explanation that I have.”
(Sandbaging for the real conflict is not even a possibility there Mr. Muzyka? Really? Nobody else is even considering this?)
"if the Russians had access to a large stock of PGMS, they could probably inflict a similar damage to Ukrainian armed forces, but they haven’t."
(Maybe because they want this conflict drug out?
Because it benefits them
and hastens the fall of the US and the West?
Thats not even a remote possibility
as to why they are engaging
in this conflict in the manner they are?
No "expert" ever thought of that?
I have a hard time believing that, I really do.
Remember the Fiona Hill interview piece
I did a few days ago? What did she say?
"Time is not on our side."
So if you could destroy a country pretty much at will, but dragging it out benefits your side long term and hurts more serious foes abroad than the foe you are engaged with? why wouldn't you conduct the conflict in such a manner as is being waged?")
And now today
Russia has supposedly hit:
Ukraine's Vizar plant which produces
maintains and repairs anti-aircraft missile systems
as well as the Vishnyovoye Fuel Depot
which supply's emergency fuel deliveries
to the front lines.
Secondary detonations were confirmed at the Vizar plant.
Russia is getting ready to break through

For The First Time, Scientists Say
They've Built a Synthetic Cell From Scratch
Sciencealert.com 07/22/26
You have to keep in mind this is the same
"community
that wanted you to believe
"The Multiverse"
and
"The Anthropic Principal"
were "scientific."
This is nothing but "click-bait" idiorcary.
And thats only id one goes so far to actualy click on the link.
Most people just see the haedline
and scroll right on past thinking:
"Well know kidding,
they did that years ago already."
NOTHING
could be any farther from the truth.
"The project is called SpudCell, and it has a genome of just 90 kilobase pairs (kbp). For comparison, the human genome is about 3 million kpb, and biologists previously assumed that a living cell would require at least 113 kpb of genetic data to function properly.
According to Adamala and her colleagues, SpudCell appears to stretch these limits, though their research is yet to be formally published and has not been peer-reviewed."
(But by God we got headlines out there!
Seein how this works yet?
And it been this way
as long as I have been following
the subject matter some 14 years or so.)
"According to Science magazine, SpudCell has met some hurdles in publication: apparently one reviewer at Cell, a prestigious science journal, said the project was not real biology."
("Who cares!
We got the headline we wanted!
Yea us!"
It's just flat out stupidity.
Anyone with a brain can see
what they are doing and why.)
"The 'cell' is also equipped with an in-built 'protein expression system', which translates the DNA's genetic instructions into action. That's what allows the 'cell' to turn the nutrients it absorbs from the surrounding liquid into useful materials, and enables cell division.'
(Instructions = Information.
Notice they didn't say
the instructions
came from an outside source.
So much for being
"A synthetic cell from scratch.")
"Currently, SpudCells don't last more than a few generations. They can't actually produce their own protein expression system, nor can they regulate their metabolism, so they rely entirely on substances and components in the liquid medium in which they float."
"The blobs also lack a cytoskeleton, the internal scaffolding that props up natural cells. This simplifies things, but it also means they can't shuttle materials around or clear waste."
"But this work does provide a proof of concept that other scientists can build on – and that we'll keep a close eye on in the coming years."
See?
"Scientist say they have built
a Proof of concept
for a synthetic cell from scratch"
just wouldn't quite have the
"click bait appeal now would it?"

"A professor at a prominent university
writes in to us to taunt Dr. Tour about this:
(See: Friday, April 10, 2026
(For more about Dr. Tour)
"So Fellow James Tour and you folk STILL claim the evil materialist scientists are “clueless” about the origin of life?"
(Easy fact check: James Tour isn’t a Fellow of the Center for Science and Culture.)
"What’s This All About?
It’s a silly comment
if the professor has actually listened to Dr. Tour.
Tour’s main point is that
to get origin-of-life scenarios to work
you would need active guidance and control
by the scientist… not an unguided process.
Absolutely positively no way to get around it.
And If life can just create itself from scratch?
THEN WHY DID IT JUST STOP?
"The idea is simple. From, “A Chemically Defined Synthetic Cell Capable of Growth and Replication,” at Biotic:
"Building ribosomes from genetic instructions. SpudCell currently uses ribosomes from E. coli bacteria. Without the capability to remake ribosomes, SpudCell runs for 5-10 generations before the machinery degrades. Building ribosomes from scratch means synthesising dozens of proteins and RNA molecules, then getting them to assemble in the right order.
"Um…so it’s borrowing ribosomes from real cells but can’t make new ones, so it dies. That doesn’t sound like it’s from scratch, doesn’t sound like a minimal cell, and doesn’t sound like a real cell."
SO IT'S CASE CLOSED.

Another Galaxy With No Dark Matter
universetoday 07/01/26
"In the 1970s, astronomer Vera C. Rubin provided the first solid evidence for the existence of Dark Matter, a mysterious, unseen mass that appeared to be holding galaxies together. Since then, the indirect evidence for Dark Matter has grown considerably, with scientists observing "halos" and gravitational lenses that could not be caused by normal (or "visible") mass. Based on observational data, Dark Matter is estimated to account for 85% of the total mass of the Universe. However, astronomers have also observed a few galaxies that don't fit this pattern."
("indirect evidence"
And it's all based on,
or inferred by looking at:
LIGHT.)
"Using the W.M. Keck Observatory, a team of Yale-led astronomers has discovered the third known galaxy that appears to lack Dark Matter altogether. This faint dwarf galaxy, known as DF9, is part of a linear structure that may have formed from a violent collision between galaxies. This discovery strengthens the evidence for a rare and previously unknown process that could assist astronomers in future studies. The study detailing their findings was published on June 16th in The Astrophysical Journal."
(Yeah, they are looking for something
that just doesn't exist yo.
Hey? Don't get pissed at me
Stephen Hawking's last theory
said the Universe was a hologram.
Some prominent other concur:
"As Michael Keim, a PhD Candidate at Yale University and the lead author on the paper, said in a Yale press release:
"A line of galaxies lacking dark matter has never been seen before. The discovery provides some of the strongest evidence yet that these galaxies formed through an extreme and previously unseen process and offers a rare new window into the nature of dark matter itself."
(Oh you can count on the fact that it was an:
"extreme and previously unseen process"
alright.)
"He (Pieter van Dokkum, co-author of the paper.) further proposed that DF9 be analyzed by Keck's Cosmic Web Imager (CWI), which is specifically designed to study faint light sources in the Universe.'
(Thats all these people are looking at.
LIGHT.

These people just have no idea what they are looking at.)
From a few years back:
that our universe has no dark matter
sciencedaily.com 03/16/24
"A University of Ottawa study published today challenges the current model of the universe by showing that, in fact, it has no room for dark matter.
"In cosmology, the term "dark matter" describes all that appears not to interact with light or the electromagnetic field, or that can only be explained through gravitational force. We can't see it, nor do we know what it's made of, but it helps us understand how galaxies, planets and stars behave.'
"Rajendra Gupta, a physics professor at the Faculty of Science, used a combination of the covarying coupling constants (CCC) and "tired light" (TL) theories (the CCC+TL model) to reach this conclusion. This model combines two ideas -- about how the forces of nature decrease over cosmic time and about light losing energy when it travels a long distance. It's been tested and has been shown to match up with several observations, such as about how galaxies are spread out and how light from the early universe has evolved."
(From the "tired light" link above:
Despite periodic re-examination of the concept, tired light has not been supported by observational tests and remains a fringe topic in astrophysics.)
"...explains Gupta. "In standard cosmology, the accelerated expansion of the universe is said to be caused by dark energy but is in fact due to the weakening forces of nature as it expands, not due to dark energy."
"Redshifts" refer to when light is shifted toward the red part of the spectrum. The researcher analyzed data from recent papers on the distribution of galaxies at low redshifts and the angular size of the sound horizon in the literature at high redshift."
"There are several papers that question the existence of dark matter, but mine is the first one, to my knowledge, that eliminates its cosmological existence while being consistent with key cosmological observations that we have had time to confirm," says Gupta."
"By challenging the need for dark matter in the universe and providing evidence for a new cosmological model, this study opens up new avenues for exploring the fundamental properties of the universe."

Brain activity under anesthesia
challenges what we know about consciousness
sciencedaily 06/28/26
"Summary:
The unconscious brain appears to be far more capable than scientists once believed. Researchers found that patients under general anesthesia could still process language at a sophisticated level, distinguishing nouns, verbs, and adjectives while listening to stories. Even more remarkably, neural activity showed signs of predicting upcoming words before they were heard. The results challenge traditional ideas about consciousness and hint at new possibilities for brain-computer interfaces."
"Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have discovered that the human brain can continue performing surprisingly advanced language tasks even when a person is fully unconscious under general anesthesia. The findings, published in Nature, challenge long held assumptions about the relationship between consciousness and cognition. They also offer new insights that could shape future research on memory, language, and brain-computer interfaces."
"Our findings show that the brain is far more active and capable during unconsciousness than previously thought," said Dr. Sameer Sheth, professor and Cullen Foundation Endowed chair of neurosurgery and a McNair Scholar at Baylor. "Even when patients are fully anesthetized, their brains continue to analyze the world around them."
"The Brain Continued Processing Language
The first experiment exposed patients to a series of repeating tones with occasional unexpected sounds mixed in. The researchers found that neurons in the hippocampus consistently detected these unusual tones. Even more interesting, the brain became better at recognizing them over time, suggesting that learning or neural plasticity was still taking place during anesthesia."
"The researchers then increased the complexity of the experiment by playing short stories while continuing to record brain activity. The hippocampus showed clear evidence of processing language in real time. Patterns of neural activity revealed that the brain could distinguish different parts of speech, including nouns, verbs, and adjectives."
"The team also made another surprising discovery. Neural signals could be used to predict upcoming words before they were spoken."
"The brain appears to anticipate what comes next in a story, even without conscious awareness," said Sheth, who is also Director of The Gordon and Mary Cain Pediatric Neurology Research Foundation Laboratories within the Duncan Neurological Research Institute at Texas Children's Hospital."
"This kind of predictive coding is something we associate with being awake and attentive, yet it's happening here in an unconscious state," said Dr. Benjamin Hayden, professor of neurosurgery at Baylor."
"Rethinking Consciousness
The findings suggest that important cognitive abilities, including language comprehension and prediction, may not depend on conscious awareness. Instead, consciousness itself may arise from communication across multiple brain regions rather than from activity within a single area such as the hippocampus."
"The researchers caution that the findings should be interpreted carefully. The study examined only one type of general anesthesia, so the results may not apply to other unconscious states such as sleep or coma. In addition, the research focused on a single brain region, and it remains unclear how broadly these processes occur throughout the brain."
"This work pushes us to rethink what it means to be conscious," said Sheth. "The brain is doing much more behind the scenes than we fully understand."
Maybe its creator
knew a thing or two about it huh?
Maybe?
