Who is Walter Veith? Professor Walter J. Veith has traveled widely throughout North America and the world presenting his visually documented Amazing Discoveries seminar series to large, enthusiastic crowds. The information presented is based on his in-depth research in the areas of evolution and Creation, health and diet, and Bible prophecy.
Evolution Professor Walter J. Veith obtained his doctorate in zoology from the University of Cape Town in 1979. He believes that the theory of evolution does not provide a plausible explanation of our origins, and that the geological and paleontological data do not support evolution over long periods of time. He believes that the evidence rather implies catastrophism, which is consistent with the Genesis account. He lectures on this topic in Europe, Africa, and North America.
Health Professor Veith's research field is nutritional physiology. He researches how modern animal husbandry affects the incidence of disease transfer to humans. This highly controversial topic is of vital significance in view of the increase in epidemics and diseases such as mad cow disease. His research focuses on degenerative diseases caused by poor nutrition, such as osteoporosis, arthritis, and cancer. Professor Veith is also concerned about antibiotic-resistant bacteria causing food poisoning epidemics around the world.
Professor Veith and his team have presented numerous lectures on the topic. Their research has been presented at international conferences on nutrition and disease, and their findings have proved that diet directly impacts numerous degenerative diseases.
Professor Veith is one of only five scientists in South Africa honored with the Royal Society London Grant for the Reconstruction and Development Programme (RDP) to establish a research climate in post-apartheid South Africa. SOURCE

I always wondered why christians join the army/military ..... killing anyone is unforgivable in their lord's eyes - a one way ticket to hell .
No it isn't unforgiveable. In defense of your family, friends and lives of others it is permitted. There's only one unforgiveable sin, and enlisting in the military to defend others, isn't it. Neither is it a one way ticket to hell. The only unforgiveable sin is to scoff and make fun of, insult or belittle the Holy Spirit...shorted to the word blasphemy which comes from the greek blasphemo which means to "scoff" or "make fun of". Cowards do not go to heaven (Rev 21:8).

Athiests are not a group - creed - or anything of the sort . We are individuals that do not have any religious beliefs , every athiest has their own thoughts and opinions .... we do not have temples or books or any of that crap .
Your response was childish . Athiesm does not kill as quite a lot of us do not follow orders written by man , there is no athiest " leaders " waging war with Islam and sleeping with Israel ..... in short ..... no .

Did you completely forget the Irish war from 1960ish to 1998ish. Protestants were killing catholics, and vice versa.

The sheer amount of ignorance from religous people is absolutely flabbergasting. The stuff you people believe in. My own mom Thinks, that there are demons that make people mentally retarted. I tried explaining to her that its in the brain, but she is so convinced that "The Devil" Is sending waves of mentally challenged demons to bring torture to all of Gods Children. Silly Right?

NOPE.
This psychologist says your mom is not silly at all.
1. We do not know all the dimensions of demonic influence from the spiritual dimension to the tangible dimension vis a vis genetics to in utero to our thought patterns and habits.
1.1 Actually, Pastor Henry Wright
www.beinhealth.com...
has been demonstrating in his later years that he and his team can facilitate deliverance from Schizophrenia in about a week.
Over the years he's had increasing 100's of MD's consulting with him to learn his methods.
2. We DO KNOW that THINKING, BEHAVING, SPEAKING chronically in a given way CHANGES EVEN OUR VERY DNA. Reminds one of the Scripture:
[color=9966FF]here
As a man thinks in his heart, so IS he
3. There are plenty of mysteries . . . auto accidents happen. Daily life accidents happen that influence development and brain injuries. Do we even know the degree of demonic influence in those incidents? I think not.
4. I believe that a lot of pain and suffering is a result of the collective rebellions and misdoings of all in a given geographic area and all on the planet collecting as the evil chickens coming home to roost down through the ages . . . some down through generational lines . . . much not . . . the flotsam and jetsam of rebellions collecting from the increasing tidal waves of perverse individual willfulness, arrogance, selfishness carries a lot of evil and suffering in its tide.
5. There is a UNIVERSAL, multi-versal law . . . WE ALL HARVEST WHAT WE SOW. Denial of that fact is not brilliant. It's stupid, dumb, ignorant. One doesn't plant cacti and harvest bonbons.
6. Denial is not facilitative of dealing well with reality.
Denial of reality is delusional.
Denial of reality is dysfunctional.
Denial of reality has negative consequences.
White washing denial still results in black consequences.
7. As this website can illustrate . . .
gigi.cpsc.ucalgary.ca:2000...
When one's construct system is far too narrow, rigid, brittle, one's hypotheses about life become tragically dysfunctional--resulting in far too high a collection of "misses" regarding one's predictions in life compared to what actually results in daily life.
8. Eventually, the failures can really pile up. The fun is then over . . . very over.

No. Athiests follow nobody , reading a book - and - devoting your life to a book are very , very different.
I have no belief system - i do not look up to anyone , i dont even fully believe in science - or space for that matter ..... but painting us all with the same brush as stalin is exactly how your ignorant , vicious kind operates.
Christianity is the single , most dangerous religion on this planet as it has been propped up with propaganda - defends its self with accusations - and fails to accept any kind of logical thinking.
Were not really "Athiests" at all ..... just humans who are not mentally weak ...... athiest is a tag you use to brand us and keep everything " organised " .
Religion is a mental illness preventing us from progressing.
