Al Gore: Oscar and Nobel Nominee

Mr. Gore has pulled off a remarkable double play. In the role of Chicken Little ("the sky is falling!") his vehemently emotional performance has also resurrected him politically.

"He Played on Our Fears”: Al Gore and Global Warming

By Marie Jon’

“He betrayed this country!” Al Gore shouted into the microphone at a rally of Tennessee Democrats “He played on our fears.”

Some believe that Al Gore is using junk science for political traction, while frightening many school age children and adults. The agenda driven media is helping Gore spread his folly.

Gore’s quotes against President Bush on an entirely different subject could most certainly be applied to Gore when he talks about global warming.

There are climate changes, but are they abnormal or just part of a normal earthly cycle? The changes can not be proven with junk science theories that blame man and his use of CO2 carbons.

If you want to join the George Noory Coast to Coast AM radio “Shadow people” believers then be a fool’s guest. This is a radio show that discusses outrageous psychobabble. Global warming is a hot topic but unfounded truth. Noory also discusses the paranormal, including flying saucers and ghostly “Shadow people.” Noory is merely another Art Bell. “Want to take a ride” with two men who doublespeak?

Henny Penny is an old fable of unknown origin about a chicken who believed the sky was falling. Those who tend to look at Al Gore’s theories fall into the same category.

A new, IPCC report is nothing more than guesses and theories. However, it was written by people with the same misguided mind set as Al Gore. An actual scientific report on global warming will be released in May. The scientific report will hopefully put an end to the all un-provable notions. However, Al Gore will use the attention given to him to further his politics. Mr. Gore is slated to receive the Nobel Peace Prize and has been nominated for an Oscar.

Whether you are a person of faith or not, it appears that, when all is said and done, true science will not support Al Gore’s contention of global warming.

Unfortunately, the mainstream, far left media would rather promote falsehoods than give the truth. They would rather ramble on about ten years of make believe dire consequences as the world suffers from climactic changes. There are real problems this world is facing, including Islamic terrorism.

U.N. Climate Change Report Sparks Heated Reaction Among U.S. Lawmakers, Activists

WASHINGTON — Despite a strongly worded global warming report from the world’s top climate scientists, the Bush administration expressed continued opposition Friday to mandatory reductions in heat-trapping “greenhouse” gases.

Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman warned against “unintended consequences” — including job losses — that he said might result if the government requires economy-wide caps on carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels.

“There is a concern within this administration, which I support, that the imposition of a carbon cap in this country would — may — lead to the transfer of jobs and industry abroad (to nations) that do not have such a carbon cap,” Bodman said. “You would then have the U.S. economy damaged, on the one hand, and the same emissions, potentially even worse emissions.”

“President Bush used the same economic reasoning when he rejected the Kyoto Protocol in 2001, an international treaty requiring 35 industrial nations to cut their global-warming gases by 5 percent on average below 1990 levels by 2012. The White House has said the treaty would have cost 5 million U.S. jobs. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,249822,00.html

Excerpts from ChristianAnswers.net:

CORRUPTION AND DECAY OF PARADISE began with man’s sin and God’s judgment

See: Genesis 3:14-19

Degenerated Universe. Nothing in our fallen world is really perfect today. One day the Creator will burn it all and create a fresh new universe (II Peter 3:10-13) Isaiah ( 65:17, 66:22). In the original world, all was ‘very good.’ It is therefore evident that animals and all creation have degenerated. The Fall and God’s curse are the ultimate reasons why our world today is so imperfect — filled with futile problems and suffering. The Flood further caused radical changes in our environment. We are fallen people living in a fallen world. We now live with death, catastrophes, disease, genetic defects, “freezing cold,” “burning heat,” etc"http://www.christiananswers.net/q-eden/edn-c026.html

Could climate changes actually stem from what a living God spoke of a long time ago? Genesis 3:17 “Cursed is the ground for thy sake.” Romans 8:22 “For we know that the whole creation groaned and travailed in pain together.” When the world groans and travails, it just might have climatic problems. You think?
