Biblical Law and Government

Lesson Three - Page 7

Doctrine Thirteen it was said, (religious institutions) must be reconstituted as rapidly as experience allows. How is this Humanist reinterpreting, reinvestment and reconstituting of Christian institutions to be accom plished? The answer, in part, is in the preface where it is written. “Many within religious groups, believ ing in the future of humanism, now claim humanist credentials.” Here we have the “ungodly” feeling that it is their duty to “reinterpret,” “reinvest” and “reconstitute” Christianity. How would they do this? In plain English, the Bible tells us.

In The Humanist Manifesto II it is acknowledged that many Humanists are within religious groups. Could they be a part of a conspiracy as mentioned in questions 27 - 29? (Page 3) In the fourth paragraph they say, “But we can discover no divine purpose or providence for the human specie . . . No deity will save us, we must save ourselves.”

Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

“Doctrine Six: Here we discover that, not only do Humanists reject Christian standards, but that they are behind gay rights, birth control, abortion and sex education in public schools. Finally we discover that edu cation in these areas is called moral education.” Here is doctrine six as found in The Humanist Manifesto II:

Sixth : In the area of sexuality, we believe that intolerant attitudes, often cultivated by orthodox religions and puri tanical cultures, unduly repress conduct. The right to birth control, abortion, and divorce should be recognized. While we do not believe in the exploitive, denigrating forms of sexual expression, neither do we wish to prohibit, by law or social sanction, sexual behavior between consenting adults. The many varieties of sexual exploration should not in themselves be considered “evil.“ Without countenancing mindless permissiveness or unbridled promiscuity, a civi lized society should be a tolerant one. Short of harming others or compelling them to do likewise, individuals should be permitted to express their sexual proclivities and pursue their life-styles as they desire. We wish to cultivate the development of responsible attitudes toward sexuality, in which humans are not exploited as sexual objects, and in which intimacy, sensitivity, respect, and honesty in inter personal relations are encouraged. Moral education for children and adults is an important way of developing awareness and sexual maturity.

Rejection of Christian standards.

Abortion on demand.

“Free love” - “New Morality”

Notice the words “tolerant,” “responsible” and “honesty” implying that if you disagree then you are intolerant, irresponsible and dishon est.

“Gay rights”

“Sex” education in public schools.

To make it difficult for Christians and the general public to catch on to the real meaning of Humanist writ ing they avoid plain English. In the first sentence of doctrine #6, the words intolerant attitudes, orthodox religions and puritanical cultures mean Christianity. So in plain English they said, “In areas of sexuality, Christianity is intolerant and unduly represses sexual conduct saying, thou shalt not commit adultery.” The last sentence could be restated as, “Humanist sex education for children and adults is an important way to develop sexual promiscuity.” Any Christian who dares suggest a Christian influence in the public schools is shouted down with, “Who are you to impose your moral standards on us?,” and the battle cry, “separation of church and state.” Yet these humanist hypocrites call “sex education” “moral education.” They are freely imposing their moral standards on our nation’s children in our public schools. To add insult to injury they fund this activity with taxpayer money.

Doctrine Nine: In the ninth doctrine of the Humanist Manifesto II, we find these interesting words, “The separation of church and state and the separation of ideology and state are imperatives.”
