(WND)—Dr. Richard Dawkins has spent his life tearing down the belief in the cultural Christian values that have been the pillars of strength in Western civilization. He has been one of those white male, atheist fundamentalist intellectuals who have – with remarkable passion – belittled and rampantly attacked Christianity and its reverence of God in the complexity of nature, effectively denying the existence of the metaphysical dimension and its influence on the physical, material world.
In a recent interview with Britain’s LBC, this architect of the contemporary mainstream evil caricature of who God is, the designer of the hatred against anything Christian left in our culture, this man has the audacity to state that he was “slightly horrified Ramadan is being promoted instead of Christian Easter.” This is the very same man who for generations has demonized and twisted the message of the ancient Holy Books, calling God a sex-obsessed tyrant and actively pushing for the purging of anything religious. This arrogant atheist missionary now states that “we are a culturally Christian country” and again says, “I call myself a cultural Christian.” So, in his opposition of Islam this delusional man is suddenly a Christian, after all?
Dr. Dawkins seems surprised that Islam takes dominion in the West. Which powers did he think would dominate when Christian compassionate spiritualism is forcibly removed by the relentless work of atheist apostles like himself? His own raging revolt against God’s order in the traditional Western religion is about to succeed completely. Of course, Islam fills the spiritual vacuum.
Dawkins’ assumptions about the metaphysical world are quite well summed up in his notoriously destructive work “The God Delusion,” in which he states that God almost certainly does not exist. This he determines with the utmost demonic pride, he who speaks of biological science and empiricism, yet determines that there is little probability of a Creator, based entirely on his own subjective perception.
Or has this culturally destructive atheist, this influencer of New Atheism, traveled beyond the edges of the universe to examine whether God is there? Is he able to determine empirically that there is no God outside the scope of this universe? Or, can he scientifically prove that man’s heart, his innermost being, cannot be in touch with the celestial Spirit of God, who by the way exists outside of the realm of the empirical. Scientific hypothesis can only empirically prove that which exists in the material dimension.
So, this little man wants to disprove the metaphysical by applying empiricist methods that only describe the material dimension. He finds biological evolution more probable than creation, even if Darwinists never have been able to prove anything more than mutations within a species. Darwinism is a faith – belief not based on empirical evidence – like any other. Evolution from one species to another has never been observed while it was happening and therefore is non-verifiable. It has never evolved beyond an unprovable theory. So, while he warns of anti-scientific fairytales as a great evil, he should be sure to include his own.
Dr. Dawkins, who arrogantly only operates in the low dimension of empiricism, who cannot even add 10 years to the length of his own life, has preached that “God is dead” to generations and inserted nihilist hopelessness, emptiness and lovelessness into our century. For without God’s justice, His metaphysical love for the physical humankind and promise of a world after the current calamity, what is there to hope for? What does the 83-year-old Dawkins hope for after his own death? Does he expect to meet demons or angels? Does he actually dare to bet on nothingness, he who has not been able to prove anything regarding this topic?
As Dr. Dawkins joins Karl Marx, Friedrich Nietzsche, Sigmund Freud, Auguste Comte and other white male, ignorant Western atheists who were hellbent on tearing down the respect for traditional values, he points out that the Christian faith is a delusion. From these “delusional” Christian ideals stem groundbreaking values such as the belief in natural human rights, equality regardless of race, gender or social standing, the abolition of slavery, individual rights to own and control the fruit of one’s own labor, an economic system based on trustworthiness and accountability where private property rights, Christian moral standards and the separation of powers form the basis for stability and growth.
Naturally, the effect of willfully creating a burning hatred for Christianity in the general public and in the mainstream media, Christopher Dawkins has greatly contributed to the current Western collapse and disintegration of society.

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
Unless Dawkins repents, he will receive the words at his judgment: depart from me to burn in the eternal Lake of Fire you worker of evil.
I would not be so cocky, Capt. Mack. There are plenty of reasons to doubt God. He is supposedly all powerful, yet evil persists, for what reason? To test us? Either he is not there, is not all powerful, can’t control Satan or he doesn’t care. Would you kill your own child to fix a problem? Especially if you were all powerful? I doubt it. Does that sound like a sane solution? His supposed plan is sadistic. We are little more than ants in a box with him holding a microscope burning us. The concept of God does not make sense on a moral level to me.
The concept seems to comfort people and teach some morals. I respect your right to believe, I am never offended by it as I am not offended by what I do not believe. Knock yourself out if it works for you. But I will occasionally challenge some of these assertions from pseudo scholars.
The ideals of America have many roots and not all of them are Christian. Democracy came from Greece, should we thank Zeus? Of course, not. The Senate came from Rome. Neither were Christian and the founding fathers were more deists than modern Christians. There are examples of kindness and love, in every culture of the world.
I ‘ll be in the Lake of Fire, but it does not scare me, because it does not exist. I do not believe in fairy tales, and I beat the brainwashing that my parents tried sending me to Church. In the end, you will be fertilizer just like me.
James, in similar manner, I find the notion that all that exists in the universe came from the explosion of a spec of dust to be a ridiculous fairy tale. Never mind explaining where the spec of dust came from.
It’s interesting that you would try to make a moral argument. Where did that moral come from?
We have people killing their children to solve a perceived problem all day every day. It’s called “abortion”.
The nazis, communists, and other socialists/collectivists killed some 100 million people to solve perceived problems.
Right now we have many eugenicists, overpopulation loons, hysteric climate change nuts, etc. who want to kill significant numbers of people in order to solve perceived problems.
In nature it happens all the time. Animals not only kill their own offspring, they eat their own offspring.
There is absolutely nothing in prevailing science, and nothing in the necessarily relativist, baseless, ever-changing, circular “reasoning” resultant from reliance solely on science, that would remotely indicate that it is wrong to kill your own offspring. Nothing. The word science means “knowledge.” Mankind’s knowledge is finite, always will be finite, and therefore severely limited and woefully inadequate.
Where did you get that belief that it’s wrong to kill your children?
Where did you get that love for your offspring?
What about killing the children of others – Is that ok, or not, and why?
What sets mankind apart from the animals?
Science cannot substantiate the existence of such morals. You got that from scripture. You don’t realize it, but you did. You believe the same supposed “fairy tales”. You just don’t realize it.
You’re proving the Bible to be 100% accurate, that things do work exactly as it says things work, and you don’t realize it. Follow that thinking through, and you’ll realize it truly was not authored by imperfect, finite, and therefore infinitely stupid human beings. It was authored by all-powerful, all-knowing God.
It’s a shame that an intelligent man like Dawkins is only now, at 83 years old, just barely beginning to actually give matters a tiny measure of any serious thought. If he were to follow the reasoning through, he might likely come to the same conclusion the rest of us have come to – God absolutely does exist.
As a result of multiculturalism, pluralism, relativism, critical theory, thanks in no small part to men like Darwin, Freud, etc., and the moral relativism it requires, we have a resurgence of paganism, satanism, and other such false “religions” that included human sacrifice.
The false religion of Islam says it’s ok to kill your own child, even when the “problem” is merely one’s “honor”.
The Bible clearly says that it is not ok. Read through Kings and Chronicles. The most wicked kings practiced false religions and made their children “pass through the fire” – they sacrificed their children to false gods.
You say it’s wrong. That’s essentially an appeal to an absolute truth.
Dawkins has spent a lifetime shouting from the rootfops that the knowledge of mankind is more than sufficient. Now he’s realizing it never was and never will be.
The Father did not kill His own son. Jesus willingly went to the cross, of His own accord.
If he were to wave his hand and make everyone sinless and pure, would they really be sinless and pure? Your argument that He would do so is no different than the argument of fake Christians who pervert the grace of God into a license for immorality to sin and keep on sinning. Those are two facets of the same wrong argument. If God were to do that, then He would be saying it’s ok to sin. Understand? Being perfect in all ways, He’s not going to do that. What makes one clean, and acceptable to Him is the full and complete Gospel of Jesus Christ. Repentance, submission to Him, and the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit.
Mankind already sinned, James. He already basically killed his own child. Mankind already committed that sin. Mankind was already in a sinful condition.
You want all-powerful God, infinitely perfect in all ways, just and righteous God, to show off His power after the fact, by waving His hand, proclaiming mankind perfectly innocent after the crime.
What if someone killed your child, and God stepped in and made everybody, including murderer, innocent after the fact, just to show that He’s all powerful. Would that be just? No it wouldn’t.
You can’t selectively pick and choose isolated attributes of God, who is perfect in all ways, in order to try to make an argument. Sure He’s infinitely powerful. He’s also infinitely just and good. He’s also infinitely knowledgeable. Etc. The Bible explains all of this.
It wouldn’t hurt to give such things a bit more thought …
Lastly, as I have to get to work here.
Understand, that killing to solve problems is not necessarily wrong. It depends on the problem.
Self defense is a good example. If someone is imminently trying to kill you, then it is not morally wrong to kill them in self defense.
Even if the one trying to kill you were a rebellious son or daughter, right?
What if your child is a serial killer, and you find out? Would you turn him in knowing he’d be sent to the electric chair? In effect, killing him?
Would you kill your own child to solve such problems?
In the latter case, is it moral to aid and abet a serial killer?
Blatantly stating “it’s wrong to kill your own child” no matter what is an attempt at a moral absolute that fails miserably under scrutiny. The Bible clearly condemns murder. But it does not condemn any and all killing.
Might give that some thought to that also …
