The Politics of Intelligent Design

s the recent federal court trial in Dover, Pennsylvania, over whether “Intelligent ADesign” (ID) may be taught in schools, has commanded the attention of the world, it has been fascinating to watch the classic strategies and tactics for achieving political advantage acted out. Once again we have been reminded that, indeed, there is nothing new under the sun. Take, for example, the use of the word ‘evolution.’ There is nothing in the current ID theory which denies the reality of evolution. In fact, much of the serious work on ID has to do with determining just what evolution itself may require in order to function. One needs a chicken to have an egg and an egg to get a chicken, so, clearly, evolution may occasionally need some help (i.e, an intelligent designer), but that does not mean evolution (i.e., progressive change) is not occurring. On the contrary, it is clear that such change is a fact, and serious proponents of intelligent design have no quarrel with it. To us—notwithstanding accusations that ID is anti-evolution and anti-science—it seems that, instead, it may offer more of an enlightened middle way between false choices. Hereto- fore, we have been told we must select either Biblical Creationism or Evolution. But, what is challenged in the current debate is not Evolution, but ‘Darwinism’—the idea that evolution could occur with only random and material forces at work, no intelligence involved. Ironi- cally, those who ‘believe’ the latter are in actuality staking out a metaphysical position and holding to it by faith without proof (i.e., adhering to a dogma) and are advancing a virtual re- ligion of their own, albeit, while claiming to reject the authority of any religion. The cult of Darwinism, it seems to us, has usurped the role of the priesthood which it has ostensibly overthrown, suggesting that it and only it can provide the answers the world is seeking. And, all the while, feigning an air of injured innocence when its integrity is questioned and its au- thority challenged. While the inner workings of minds at the upper echelons of the Darwinian religion may be difficult for non-believers to fathom, we can still study their influence at lower, less- informed levels of the ecclesiastical hierarchy and make some useful observations. For in- stance, when called to defend the ‘sacred’ cause of ‘science’—perceived as threatened by ID’s growing influence—much of the secular press has obediently rushed to the ramparts. The shrill, even hysterical, denunciation of ID as nothing more than a front for Biblical funda- mentalist creationism and the prophesying of doom—a virtual return to the dark ages— reveals, however, more than the ignorance of the accusers. Indeed, the cries of alarm over the imminent “death of science,” we suspect, reflect diminishing certainty and growing anx- iety over the authority of the entire Darwinian position. In such a state, argument based on merit alone is far too threatening and must be abandoned. Atlantis Rising Magazine exists because many of us have observed a deep disconnect in the orthodox truth-detection mechanisms of our society. The difficulty, we felt, wasn’t so much due to a conspiracy as to a schism tearing apart the very soul of civilization. The re- sult, it can be argued, has been a host of problems—alienation, wars, environmental collapse, etc. One symptom of the disorder is the elevation of the unworthy into positions of authority from which they—in an endless effort to preserve their own advantages—manipulate the levers of power. And where there is opportunity to corrupt, there is no shortage of willing corrupters. The condition is widespread and intolerable. But, hopefully, in the current con- flict over intelligent design, we are witnessing one of those extraordinary moments when the system, in the interest of its own equilibrium, is entering into some much needed self- correction. If that indeed is what is happening, we may witness some intense resistance. So, what else is new?

Men with names like Tesla, Moray, Rife, Russell and Schauberger, laboring in almost complete obscurity, and achieving almost incompre- hensible miracles--free energy, anti-gravity, transmutation of the elements, physical reju- venation and more--were yet largely re- jected, ridiculed and despised by the scien- tific establishment of their day. But now, a few decades later, a new breed of inventors, scientists and researchers is making rapid, if yet unpublicised, strides toward unraveling the secrets of those unsung giants who pre- ceded them.

It was said that O’Farrell, a Catholic, wanted a direct and un- encumbered road to Mission Dolores for Sunday mass. It was also alleged that O’Far- rell was basing his survey on Philadelphia, where he had previously lived and where two streets were also named Market and San- some. The man thought to have influenced O’Farrell’s Philadelphia agenda was George Hyde, a Philadelphia-born lawyer, who had relocated to California prior to the Gold Rush. Hyde was rewarded with the naming of a strategically aligned street in his honor. Along with Market and Columbus, Hyde Street serves as the baseline for a perfect truncated pyramid. It is not clear whether Hyde himself was a mason, but it seems prob- able given his close connections to O’Farrell. Next to enter in the pyramid street align- ment saga is Henry W. Halleck, the person re- sponsible for adding the diagonal artery of Montgomery Avenue (later re-named Co- lumbus after the 1906 earthquake). Later a prominent Civil War general, Halleck was married to the granddaughter of Alexander Hamilton. He arrived in California in 1847 and was appointed Secretary of State. In 1853, Halleck, a lawyer specializing in land titles, undertook the construction of The Montgomery Block. This, the first fireproof building ever built in the city, stood at the in- tersection of Montgomery and Washington Streets (600 Montgomery), just steps from the site of the first Masonic meeting. A sturdy structure, it survived the 1906 earthquake and stood for over 100 years. After the Civil War Halleck returned to San Francisco and took up residence at the army headquarters located at Black Point Ridge. Originally the residence of eccentric California pioneer and Freemason John C. Fremont, Black Point Ridge was the site of a building owned by Fremont, known as Porter’s Lodge. Under Halleck the entire site was rebuilt and a road was added to the grid that stretched directly from Black Point BY STEPHEN V. O’ROURKE Ridge to the Montgomery Block.

About the author: Robert Berringer is a retired Nuclear Engineer with a theology degree from Harvard University. His many honors include Omicron Delta Kappa, Tau Beta Pi and Mensa. Inspired by Graham Hancock’s “Finger- prints of the Gods” and “Heaven’s Mirror”, Robert used his academic and scien- tific skills to study the many signs of divine intervention. See “www.CloudriderBooks.net” for more information. Send Emails to [email protected]. About the book: There are many signs of many gods, especially long ago. The gods said that they visited earth from the heavens. Their periodic visits, often called ages, were used to help civilize humans. This book presents evidence that the very difficult task of domesticating animals was a gift of the gods. All written records before 1000 BC say that the gods civilized man and taught him about good versus evil. Yes, the serpent in Genesis was a god, often shown with wings. The gods visited Egypt, Sumer and the Andes about 3000BC bringing kingship and writing from heaven to earth. The gods left many signs, including massive and intricate stone monuments which point to the stars. The Toltecs and the Mayans believed that the fifth age of man started on 3114 BC and will end on 2012 AD! The first civilizations with godly kings, scripts, and calendars date to 3100 BC, as does the first construction of Stonehenge and Newgrange! The first wheeled carts and the first bronze are surely gifts of the gods at this time. Bronze, stone clamps and many other artifacts and scripts which are out of time and place are studied as probable signs of the gods. Many of the signs point to the heavens in the past. The author describes many of the signs which point to the heavens in the future, especially the near future.

It posits that fundamental particles are tiny snips of suba- tomic ‘particle strings’ 100 billion times shorter than the nucleus of an atom. These strings vibrate in predetermined ways and in- teract with one another to create the proper- ties of material particles. “From such a theory,” writes D’Angelo, “we can sense that the world is a vast chain of overtones of which we are a part, each person vibrating at his or her own particular frequency.” He takes this further, stating that “the vibrations of the human voice applied consciously as a therapeutic instrument have the resonating power to stimulate, release and balance the fine healing energies that create harmony and wholeness of body, mind and spirit.
