Recently an op-ed was published in the Scientific American that claimed “denial of evolution” is a form of white supremacy. This claim is anything but scientific and the author of the piece, Allison Hopper, identifies as a “filmmaker and designer” not a scientist. Hopper points to the “mark of Cain” as being why creationism and christianity are in support of White Supremacy. PJ media writer Paula Bolyard took this claim and took it apart in an op-ed of her own.
From PJ Media:
Again, there’s nothing in the biblical text to indicate that the “mark of Cain” was a change of skin color, though some racists have interpreted it that way. The focus of the passage wasn’t on the mark itself, but on the fact that God would not allow anyone to exact vengeance against Cain. There’s also nothing in scripture to back up the assertion that the mark was passed on to Cain’s descendants.
To “prove” that creationism is racist, Hopper claims she was unable to find more than a handful of children’s books about evolution on Amazon, while there were “hundreds of children’s books available on Amazon that focus on biblical origin stories.”
So… is racist Amazon, with its racist algorithm, blocking the sale of books on evolution? Or are racist secular book publishers working in cahoots with the religious wing-nuts to censor children’s books on evolution? Is that what she’s suggesting? Here’s an alternate theory: Maybe it’s because 40% of Americans still believe in the biblical view of creation, despite the best efforts of Hopper and her ilk to marginalize religious Americans, while only 22% believe we evolved without God’s help. And so maybe there’s a demand for books about the creation story and maybe people are buying those books, resulting in even more books being published on the topic because publishers like to make money. Perhaps Hooper should lay off the Robin DiAngelo and Ibram X. Kendi books and pick up a Bible and an Econ 101 textbook.
Ham was right to point out that the Scientific American piece was a “deliberate attempt to totally misrepresent Christians and foster hate against them regarding the ‘race’ issue.” In fact, there’s only one “biological race of humans (as confirmed by the Human Genome project in 2000), and thus all are sinners, and all need the free gift of salvation in Jesus Christ,” he declared. “To claim in this Scientific American piece that rejecting evolution is a ‘form of white supremacy’ is disgustingly evil. Actually, this whole error-filled item is a hit piece against Christians.”

WHAT A CROCK? It is very simple—-God sent his Son, Jesus Christ to this earth to live as a human being facing all the temptations we face every day. He did exactly what His Father, God the Father asked of Him. He gave his life for the sins of all mankind. Color does not enter into it at all, unless you are too stupid and or too smart (?) to accept the simple fact that Jesus Christ is the only Son of the one and only Sovereign God of the Universe. And we lowly human beings of many different hues should love and serve Him with all our hearts, minds and souls.
Nearly ALL religions become HIJACKED in portions at some point.
Evolutionism/Evilutionism is just effort to make everyone feel lesser than what GOD saith they are. WE, OF ALL COLOR AND RACE, ARE NOT EVOLUTIONIZED FROM MONKEYS as the “THEYS” would have you believe.
ASK: WHY HAVE CHIMPANZEES, GORRILLAS AND MORE NOT CHANGED NOR “EVOL/EVILUTIONIZED THE BEGININGS OF TIME?
JESUS WAS, on account of his geography, DARK SKINNED!!!
AND FOR THE RECORD THE BLACK COMMUNITY WAS VERY VERY CHRISTIAN AS ALSO THE CHINESE AS CHRONICLED IN EARLY HAN DYNASTY SPOKE OF GENESIS AND EVEN CAN BE SEEN IN THE BREAK DOWN WITHIN THEIR PICTOGRAPHY IN THEIR WRITING! ALSO CHRONICLED, AND QUITE POETICALLY, WAS THE HAN EMPEROR DOCUMENTING BIRTH, LIFE, DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF CHRIST.
CHRISTIANITY IS NOT SO MUCH, NOR SHOULD IT EVER HAVE BEEN, RELIGION IN THE “RITUAL” SENSE. IT WAS A PERSONL WALK IN LIFE WITH GOD THRU HIS ONLY SON!
So who is spewing this b.s.???
White woke atheists? Blacks who blame anything and everything on white people?
What’s their end game here? Replace Christianity with African voodooism??
I could see white wokesters embracing African voodooism like they do on everything else black out of fear that they might upset a black and get their butt kicked!!!
lol lol
Name me one religion in the 1940 and 1950 that did not teach in White Churches, that White people were superior to the black race, even had nasty names for the religions of the black people, even though they taught the same Bible the White Churches used.
Now since Christians have put Jesus as a White person, and since in all the time I spent in that part of the World while in the US Military, I do not remember seeing a native of the area which was white, and if you go by pictures of those years ago, they were even darker back then, almost black. That in itself would be a starting point of why White Supremist and Christianity are connected.
