Christians swayed by scientific arguments falsely so-called, (1 Timothy 6:20) O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy … Continue reading Much Learning Hath Made Thee Mad! — Guest Post by Marilynn Dawson
Secularism teaches a very long, slow progress for humans. They believe that the discovery of fire, the wheel, and how to domesticate animals took millennia.
