Why Global Warming is a Joke

January 27, 2010 By 5 Comments

While reading my Bible the other day I came across a passage that struck me in light of all the hype and craziness over global warming. Now keep in mind, I have never believed all of this global warming propaganda nor have I been a follower of Al Gore. I would like to think that common sense and wisdom have been by my side, instead.

The context of this passage takes place after the great flood. Noah and his family, along with all of the animals have left the ark. Noah has built an altar and made a sacrifice to the Lord. God was pleased with Noah and said the following.

“I will never again curse the earth, destroying all living things, even though people’s thoughts and actions are bent toward evil from childhood. As long as the earth remains, there will be springtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, day and night.” (Genesis 8:21-22)

You can’t get any clearer than that.

For those who put their trust and faith in the Lord, this is comforting and freeing. For those who are searching these words will hopefully make them think, and unfortunately for those who want nothing to do with God, they will only fight it, deny it, or run. In my simple and common sense way of thinking and doing, I just say, God said it, I believe it, case closed. God’s Word has always stood the test and it will in this case too.

So do you really want to believe all of the Global Warming hype led by people who don’t even follow their own advice and get rich off of this joke, or will you realize contrary to world belief, God is still in control and always will be?

What We Do In Private Matters

November 27, 2009 By 2 Comments

Lately I have heard people say that they don’t care what other people do in their own homes, just as long as they don’t push their agenda on them. At first I didn’t think anything of it, then it started to bother me.

I have to be honest and sincere. It does matter to me what people do in their private lives, because what they do in the house effects what they will do and how they will act outside their private lives. It is just the facts. There is no getting around it.

So yes, I do care what you do in the privacy of your house. In a broad sense, that is. No, I am not going door to door checking up on my neighbors or family. But we do need to care.

We need to care that many men and now women are looking at pornography in the privacy of their homes and it is effecting how they relate in the outside world. Many a rape, incest, molestation, murder case can be linked to the addiction of pornography. To not such an extreme, this addiction is breaking up families, which in turn hurts children, which effects how they function in life.

This is just one example of how what we do in the privacy of our homes does matter. I can’t turn my back on what is going on. I have to stand up for what I believe in. I have to stand up for what is right.

Am I going door to door condemning my neighbors? No. But, I can’t say that I won’t speak up when given the opportunity and I certainly, at the very least, must be honest with myself and true to my God, that I do care what others do. To say that I don’t care, would be to say I really don’t care about humanity.

So, to anyone who says that they don’t care what others do as long as they don’t push it on them, I ask you to really think it through. I understand where you are coming from, but if we are truly honest, we do care. When something is wrong, it is wrong; inside the house or outside.

We must stop the political correctness and stand up for what is right.

Is This Propaganda?

November 7, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Have you noticed lately just how much President Obama gets his name mentioned or his agenda pushed by many shows on TV? It has gone way over board. It has become propaganda.

The Biggest Loser - Propaganda?I thought that I had seen it all until I was watching The Biggest Loser on NBC the other night. I knew that they were shooting this episode in Washington D.C., but I was hoping that it wouldn’t be full of praise and worship of our president. It was, though.

Why? Why do we think that we need to elevate him above all? If the viewer didn’t know better, you would think that the Obama family was the only healthy eating first family in history. I don’t remember the exact words, but the trainers were “giddy” over the fact that this first family was such a great role model for the rest of the world by how they took care of and promoted great health. I didn’t know that smoking cigarettes qualified as healthy? I didn’t know that lying and corruption were a part of a healthy lifestyle, either?

Have you noticed that many of the television shows have the characters or participants showing the importance of volunteering? I have no problem with volunteerism. I volunteer at my children’s schools and at our church. What I have a problem with is other people telling me that we need to do it. The government telling me I need to do it. That isn’t how volunteerism works. People have volunteered just fine without the help of government and star power.

These are just a couple of examples of his agenda push. There are so many more. The president loves to see and hear his name. This is all a part of his master plan. Power can do some evil things if gone unchecked and unchallenged. Unfortunately that is what this administration wants and that is what they will have unless we speak up and act.

So NBC, CBS, and ABC, let the Biggest Loser and all the other shows be what they are supposed to be—entertainment not propaganda.

The Erosion of Freedom

November 5, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Is our freedom being eroded by those who think they can say anything and do anything in the name of their rights? We have allowed way too much to go unchecked in America. I am fed up with the so called open minded people trying to squelch the freedoms that I don’t take for granted.

There are things that surround me every day that I do not agree with and that I don’t want my children exposed to. What do I do when I am bombarded by this stuff? Well, I run the other way. I teach my children the difference between right and wrong and I surround myself with the things that matter.

We live in a great country, but so many are intent on destroying what makes this great land of the free just that, free. We must stand up and not back down. God did not say to stand idly by and allow others to steal our freedom. We must stand up for the innocent and we must stand up for the truth.

Thank goodness for many American citizens who are willing to do just that.

What has happened to America that we could get this far. Is nothing sacred anymore?

Will The United Nations Climate Change Treaty Lead to a Global Government?

November 3, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Did you know that an “agreement on Global climate change” might just be signed by many countries, including our own in Copenhagen this December? I didn’t know anything about it, until my mom told me something about it and when I watched Glenn Beck the other night.

This treaty, as it should be called, is a scary thing. It calls for a one world government, redistribution of wealth from wealthy countries to poor countries. It would literally close down the free market system, take over financial markets worldwide and also tax every financial transaction on wealthy countries at least 2%. That last act alone has the power to completely close down Wall Street.

All of this under the convenient disguise of the environment and global warming. Apparently we, the wealthy nations, especially the United States, are to blame for “global warming”, and so we must pay for it. We would pay for it by basically paying back the poor countries, which don’t emit that much CO2. This is called climate debt. So we suffer and others get to reap the rewards.

Let’s see, redistribute wealth nationally and now globally. Government takeover of all aspects of life nationally and now globally. Glenn Beck asked his guests on Friday’s show if they believed that this treaty would actually be signed. Bolton said he didn’t think it would and Lord Monckton absolutely pleaded with Americans that it most certainly would.

The signing of this document would change our country and our world forever. Our constitution is in jeopardy, here. We must wake up. We must let our Senators know. Right now they are our only hope to stop this insanity. Call your senators. Go to WEBCommentary and sign the petition to stop this treaty. If you love your freedom, act!

I have no doubt in my mind that our president loves this and that this is all a part of his master plan. He has evil intent and he hates our country. He will sign this “agreement”. I pray that I am wrong, but look what he has done so far.
