** "Avatar & the New Evolutionary Religion",
by Dr. Carl Wieland.
The article by our Australian friend Dr. Wieland is an excellent expose regarding the insidious and powerful messages being fed to our children through movies, TV, video games, etc. Remember that we are social creatures that unconsciously absorb ideas, attitudes, and habit patterns from those around us - so much more from the powerful medium of video. (Rom 12:2)

Animal Compassion vs Cruelty Concerns -
"The Cove" (Exposing the horror of Japanese dolphin "harvests")
- Trailer Sample Video Clip
While obviously God's priority is on the protection of suffering people, please do not forget that cruelty is culturally contagious and often spreads like a social epidemic from animal abuse to human oppression. This documentary reveal the anti-shepherding character to which sinful man can fall when self-interest and greed desensitize us to the suffering of God's highly intelligent and emotional creatures.
Remember that dolphins have an intellect, emotional depth, and social system that equals or surpasses the great apes, elephants, etc. They are as far beyond our dogs as our dogs are beyond insects. People who have worked closely with these magnificently designed nephesh beings know them as friends and companions.
"The Cove is directed by the experienced National Geographic photographer Louie Psihoyos, who sets about to uncover a shocking (but regular) ritual on the Japanese coast: the herding and slaughter of thousands of bottlenose dolphins in the town of Taiji. A few dolphins are saved during this process, and sold off to aquariums so they can perform in water shows. The rest are crowded together and--away from prying eyes--stabbed to death, their meat sold as food. (Interviewing Japanese people on the street, they apparently have no idea that the "whale meat" on sale in stores is actually mercury-saturated bottlenose dolphin.) It's not that this mass killing is secret, exactly, but the fishermen of Taiji have done a proactive job of keeping cameras and other observers from getting a good look. Psihoyos wants to change all that, and he assembles a swashbuckling squad of scientists, filmmakers, and nerds (including movie F/X people who design fake rocks for hidden video cameras) to extra-legally smuggle recording equipment into the cove."
Man is much closer to an animal than to a god
(God is infinitely greater than man in every way)
"Concerning the condition of the sons of men, God tests them,
that they may see that they themselves are animals.
For what happens to the sons of men also happens to animals;
one thing befalls them: as one dies, so dies the other.
Surely, they all have one breath; man has no advantage over animals,
for all [is] vanity.
All go to one place: all are from the dust, and all return to dust.
Who knows whether the breath of man ascends upward
and the breath of the beast descends downward to the earth?" Ecclessiastes 3:18-21

WHY DOGS SMILE AND CHIMPANZEES CRY
* Note that this secular video contains many out of date evolutionary claims that have been contradicted by recent scientific evidence.
"Are animals closer to humans on an emotional level than generally has been believed? The many scientists, researchers, wildlife photographers, and other animal experts interviewed in this Discovery Channel video answer with a resounding yes. They make their case in this 93-minute documentary, narrated by actress Sigourney Weaver, with stories of despondent dogs, grieving chimps, and lab rats who laugh when tickled. The first half focuses on happy bonds between mother and child, siblings, and animals and humans. The second half delves into the darker subjects of sadness and grief, offering astounding assertions such as elephants secrete a tearlike substance when upset and search dogs finding only corpses in the Oklahoma City bombing case needed treatment for depression. While the focus is on mammals, mollusks get some air time in the form of octopuses that appear to change color according to their situation. Backing up observations with brain imaging and genetic testing, the scientists--and this film--make a compelling view for any animal lover. --Kimberly Heinrichs

ISLAM and KORAN vs COMPASSIONATE MUSLIM PEOPLE . . . .
** Peaceful Muslims . . .I have many peaceful friends who have grown up as Muslims and continue to practice Islam. Sadly my friends are often afraid to speak out about other "Muslims" who are filled with hate and seeking to force the world to "submit" to Islam under threat of violence and death. I understand why my friends fear for their children and remain silent in the face of terrorism. I realize that only a few "Muslims" commit acts of violence in the name of Allah. Yet my greatest concern is that a huge percentage of Muslims around the world support violent acts. Remember, thousands of Muslims danced in their streets aroung the world, publicly celebrating the suffering of 3,000 innocent people (NON-soldiers, who were men, women, and little children) who died in New York on 911? Yes, I understand that in every "war" bombs dropped from planes often kill civilians, but most terrorists bombings intentionally target civilian men, women, and children. What about "Christian" terrorists? Very rarely does anyone commit an act of violent terror in the name of Christianity. Those few who do are always deranged loners or members of a tiny fringe group of extremists. Plus, when rare cases of "false-Christian" violence do occur, immediately the vast majority of true Christians strongly speak out publicly condemning such acts as not Christian. Why do so many Muslims dance in their streets when a terrorist succeeds with a violent act of terror in the name of Islam? One reason is that they believe America and Western Civilization abused their ancestors through colonial domination, and in many ways they are right. In fact, some predatory Western corporations and governments continue to abuse people groups and nations through subtle forms of neo-colonialism. However, such grievous abuses do not justify acts of terror against innocent men, women, and children. Jesus and truly biblical Christianity teach God's special love that is willing to die FOR our enemies, to save them from the disease and eternal death of sin. God entered His space/time universe as prophecied for thousands of years as Jesus the Messiah and allowed His enemies to kill him on a cross. It was not just an example of perfect love, it was a perfect payment for the death (separation from God) that we all deserve - as rebels - His enemies (Romans 5).
