Philosophy Instead of Biblical Doctrine

This detail from the Sistine Chapel is well known, almost a meme in the media,
but there is a message staring at us.
See below.

Then the "UOJ crowd" must include Issues, Etc., since they wanted to show their support for Maier (or disdain for Ichabod, or both) by having theistic evolutionist Dr. Maier on their show--just a few days ago. AiG notes that theistic evolution is a global heresy in the church:

Extent of theistic evolution according to Ken Ham:

As we look forward to what God has for AiG this year, we recognize that one of the biggest challenges before us is not so much countering the teaching of evolution and millions of years in the secular culture—but dealing with this wrong teaching in the church! The church needs to wake up to the fact that millions of years/evolution is really the pagan religion of this age.

This is one of many examples where Michelangelo
flaunted his secretive cadaver research,
which was forbidden and criminal at the time.

GJ - Concordia Publishing House knows how to appeal to the old-fashioned Pietists while introducing rationalism. One apparently Biblical message is the veneer for the real content, so we can figure out the  real agenda. Dr. David Mention, a retired science professor, Washington University, pointed out the flaws in the latest CPH  bait and switch.

It all began in the 19th century, when Evangelicals sought to compromise with Evolution, so they would not seem to be backward in the eyes of the world.

Those who reject the efficacy of the Word will necessarily reject Creation by the Word.

It seems ironic that McCain would trouble Rolf Preus over Rolf saying long ago that the LCMS was no longer an Orthodox Lutheran church body, and then all along McCain is a theistic evolutionists, and has recently been pushing evolution on tots!:

Paul T. McCain (Ptmccain), December 03, 2011:

If you don't mind, I'd like to hear directly from Rolf on this. When he left The LCMS he made any number of highly caustic condemnations of our church body. Rolf, why do want to return? Do you now regard The LCMS as an orthodox Lutheran church body?
