Global Warming
Posted: Sun Oct 12, 2008 3:24 am
The concept of mankind-generated global warming is nothing but a politically-motivated farce. There are many people around the globe who are gaining money, power, and fame as a result, but the reality is that there is no scientific evidence to support it. Here is a place to start studying the real scientific evidence (it's called "The Oregon Project"):

I remember when I was in school in the 1960's and 1970's the teachers were talking about "global cooling". They said that we were in the beginning stages of an ice age that would kill all life on earth. They said it was just part of the natural cycle of things, and there's nothing we could do about it. Since then, not only has mankind claimed that we are the cause of "global warming", but that we are the only thing that can "fix" it. It's not possible to reconcile those two extremes, either ethically or scientifically, especially since the "global cooling" panic happened right in the middle of the when all of the mankind-caused "global warming" was supposed to be accelerating.
This says a lot about man's arrogance and pride -- to actually believe that we can usurp God's control of the planet that he created. The "computer models" we use to describe the earth barely scratch the surface of its true complexity and beauty. We can't even predict the weather accurately from hour to hour for a single town, much less predict the weather patterns of the entire globe for decades or centuries or millenia.
There will be some good things, but probably many more bad things, that come as a result of the "global warming" panic. We've already got children and adults around the globe scared to death of drowning. Giving somebody like Al Gore a Nobel Peace Prize for promoting such tripe is worse than pathetic.
