TIM KELLER AND FRANCIS COLLINS HAVE BEEN SELLING THE SNAKE OIL OF TEMPLETON FOUNDATION TO MERGE FAITH AND SCIENCE / EVOLUTION AND CREATION FOR DECADES. NOW THEY DRIVE HOME COVID SCIENCE OF THE PANDEMIC INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX.

Francis Collins now former head of NIH founded Bio Logos Foundation in 2007 to “further conversations” about resolving the conflicts of Christian Faith with modern “science” by focusing on a merger of Faith and Science at the alters of theistic evolution. According to a 2014 article Bio Logos had by that time reached an annual budget of over $9 million dollars and was promoting over 37 distinct projects ” in the United States and worldwide to help bridge the gap between traditional Christian beliefs on Intelligent Design and modern theories of evolution”
( Note :Creation Care aka Climate Change , psychology, black holes, social sciences and a broad based “religion” interfaith approach are also favorite topics of Bio Logos. Christian apologetics have also been overrun with this effort. )
COLLINS AND THE PANDEMIC VIA THE BIO LOGOS OUTLET
Bio Logos is just part of the an extensive interfaith and religion effort of the Templeton Foundation who administers some $150 million dollars annually (by 2016) and awards “the annual Templeton Prize for achievements in the field of spirituality, including those at the intersection of science and religion.” More on Templeton and the annual prize later.
TIM KELLER ENDORSEMENT AND INVOLVEMENT IN BIO LOGOS WAS KEY TO ITS POPULARITY
“Many people today, both secular and Christian, want us to believe that science and religion cannot live together. Not only is this untrue, but we believe that a thoughtful dialogue between science and faith is essential for engaging the hearts and minds of individuals today. BioLogos provides an important first step towards that end.”Tim Keller, Pastor & Author
“BioLogos affirms evolutionary creation as a core commitment”
FUNDING FOR BIO LOGOS IS FROM TEMPLETON FOUNDATION
Our Vision & Purpose
“Our vision is to become a global catalyst for discoveries that contribute to human flourishing.”
“Our purpose is to enable people to create lives of purpose and meaning.”
Our Impact
“The work supported by the John Templeton Foundation crosses disciplinary, religious, and geographical boundaries. We fund work on subjects ranging from black holes and evolution to creativity, forgiveness, and free will. We also encourage civil, informed dialogue among scientists, philosophers, theologians, and the public at large.”
“Our grantees produce field-leading scholarship across the sciences, theology, and philosophy. From probing gravitational waves to updating the modern evolutionary synthesis, they have contributed to major discoveries in the basic sciences. Other grantees have opened critical new topics to scientific investigation, including prayer, gratitude, immortality, and imagination.”
COLLINS EVEN WON THE TEMPLETON PRIZE FOR 2020
“My name is Deborah Haarsma. I’m an astronomer and President of BioLogos.
“I am thrilled to congratulate Dr. Francis Collins on receiving the Templeton Prize.”
“Francis is well deserving. He’s a world class scientist, devout Christian, caring doctor, and public servant. I’m honored to call him a friend. We both love science and math, like second order differential equations… But I want to focus on the impact Francis has had on others. Think of the many patients who have been healed because of his genomics research. Think of the countless lives that will be saved by the coming COVID vaccine. And think of all those whose hearts and minds have been changed on science and faith.”

BioLogos Public Engagement: Inviting The Church And The World To See The Harmony Between Science And Biblical Faith
“In the summer of 2016, BioLogos further expanded its range of activities by launching a speakers program: BioLogos Voices. Funded by a $1.7 million grant from the John Templeton Foundation.”
BIO LOGOS AT EVANGELICAL THEOLOGICAL SOCIETY
“The goal is to equip leaders to bring critical conversations about science and faith to new audiences. The grant also provides opportunities for BioLogos staff, such as Applegate, to represent the organization at major annual conventions, such as the Evangelical Theological Society’s annual meeting.”
COVID COMES CALLING -EVANGELICAL LEADERS JOIN THE GLOBAL CHORUS TO KEEP THE FOLD IN CHECK.
A bit of ethical reservation could have prevented a host of evangelicals from joining the now exposed Collins and Fauci in the narratives of the Pandemic Industrial Complex. But never mind ethics on the part of guys like Ed Stetzer, Rick Warren, Russell Moore, Walter Kim (NAE) and others INCLUDING BIO LOGOS from jumping on board the “Covid Collaborative ” and joining in with dark money from Facebook and other organizers and collaborators who would play a key role in hiding facts and suppressing the exchange of information even as Collins and Fauci faced the hard realities of their role in “gain of function” funding, and behind the scenes emails to select what “Science ” is made available for public consumption…including for Christians BY so called Christian leaders.
BIO LOGOS 2020 REPORT BOAST OF THEIR COVID FOCUS AND WORK .
“Of the many needs in 2020, one of
the biggest was squarely in the
mission of BioLogos: to address the
polarization and misinformation
swirling around the science of
COVID (even in Christian circles!).
We met the moment by bringing
reliable scientific information from
a thoughtful biblical perspective—
and hundreds of thousands joined
us, sharing our many virtual events,
and signing our Christian
Statement on Science for Pandemic
Times.”
PANDEMIC RISING AND THE BIO LOGOS FOCUS SHIFTS TO COVID TALKING POINTS AND FIGHTING “MISNFORMATION “.
In total, BioLogos virtual
events in 2020 were viewed
over 280,000 times.
THEMES
Following Christ in a Pandemic-
Science & Faith in Pandemic Times
Where is God in a Pandemic?
Black Lives in Science and Faith
A Christian Response to Coronavirus
“In August of 2020, and in response to
polarization and rampant
misinformation around COVID-19,
BioLogos announced “A Christian
Statement on Science for Pandemic
Times.” We invited dozens of Christian
leaders to publicly show the biblical
basis and broad Christian support for
taking the scientific findings about
COVID-19 seriously.
Those who signed and shared included
author Philip Yancey, theologian N.T.
Wright, and Walter Kim, the President of
the National Association of Evangelicals,
among many other key figures.
Overall, more than 8,000 signed the
statement, which earned considerable
media attention.”
“In 2020, the generous support
from our individual & church
donors went up 119% from 2019
while support from foundations
increased by 98%. Of each gift
received, 77% went directly to
programs that benefit pastors,
scientists, students, and
families. The remaining gifts
supported our core mission
through administration and
fundraising.
At the end of 2020, BioLogos
had a net asset balance of $3M.
Of this amount, $1.9M is from
multi-year grants and
designated for programs in
future years. Cash reserves
continue to be strong, allowing
for continued stability through
uncertain economic conditions
in the coming year.”
PROMOTING THE COVID JAB FOR CHRISTMAS
A MULTITUDE OF EVANGELICAL LEADERS ARE JOINING IN ON PANDEMIC FUNDING AND PROMOTION OF DISTURBING NARRATIVES.
CONCLUSION:
Bio Logos has sought to prime Christians to place more faith in scientific trends and politics than in the Word of God. Some have been trained now to subject the Bible to these agenda driven trends. Templeton’s , whose funding is behind Bio Logos, agenda is not only to promote the diversion of trust in the name of Christian faith BUT to only promote religions who “adhere or subscribe to no sacred text”. Since 2007 it has remained the head of the spear in Christian circles for this controversial effort. Now the Pandemic reveals how dangerous and tainted this long term effort can be.
Many key evangelical leaders seem determined to remain lockstep with “Global Goals” sustainability , Covid’s new global controls, climate change, massive (planned) human migration in the name of refugees, SOGI false information for sexuality and gender, racial unrest driven by CRT and a host of other progressive political dream agendas including luring Christians to subject Biblical Faith to theoretical and even politicized “science”. Now as more of the truth unfolds and rises above all efforts to refuse it a hearing – these leaders can no longer convince any thinking Christian who reads the Word of God that following these destructive and oppressive goals is anything akin to the work of the Gospel. Jesus is NOT a global activist nor is His “Good News” a tool for global politics or oppression of the truth.
Instead beloved-
Proverbs 23:23 “Buy the truth, and do not sell it,
Also wisdom and instruction and understanding.”
