...Christians especially shouldn't worry about the Earth

http://www.renewamerica.us/columns/benamon/070426

"The Earth is The Lord's and the Fullness Thereof"-- 1 Corinthians 10:26 (KJB)


I do not worry about the Earth...because it DOES belong to The Lord God Almighty. Therefore, He is in control of what happens to it. Yes I am to be a good steward of the earth and not take advantage of it, but at the same time, I am not going to become obsessive about saving it. Everything is in God's hands, He is in control.

Global Warming advocates have pushed Global Warming over and over, to the point of hysterics. Al Gore testified before Congress last month on the need to implement changes in American society that would counteract the effects of Global Warming. No doubt there were a few in Congress who disagreed with his assertions, and as Gore continued with his thoughts on the issue, he was clearly irritated.

And at one point, Gore proposed a tax on those who pollute. Meaning those who insist on using carbon dioxide spewing devices. Well that means he will have to tax most of America. That is so unrealistic and over the top.

Another over the top encounter occurred at the most recent White House Correspondent's Association Dinner where singer Sheryl Crow and the producer of Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth", Laurie David, went up to Karl Rove, President Bush's advisor and prodded him about Global Warming.

Read about the confrontation here: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,267727,00.html

Needless to say, the conversation was very tense, tense to the point that Sheryl Crow felt she needed to reach out and grab Rove's arm to which Rove barks back, "Don't touch me" as he was turning to leave the conversation with the 2 women. What has happened to respect for our leaders? Surely that was inappropriate. One can state their case to our leaders without the need to get nasty.

Global Warming advocates have one thing in common, their annoyance with anyone who disagrees with their point of view. If it is about presenting the facts, then why get angry? Just present your thoughts about the subject and let people make their own decisions about it. Let people separate the facts from the fabrications.

Those who push a biased and an often partly untrue view on Global Warming do not consider other points of view on the issue. It's their way of seeing things, or else.

Dr. Timothy Ball, a climatologist who has been critical of the prevailing Global Warming view that man is to blame ( http://www.geocities.com/zacherle_hoag/tball ), continues in his harsh commentary of those who continue to mislead the public with a biased view of the Global Warming issue.

In an email to distinguished writer Noel Sheppard, Dr. Ball says, "...When you go public and allow the output of the models to become the basis of global, national and regional policy there is a different set of responsibilities and these are definitely not being met.
"Worse, they are deliberately being manipulated and misused.

Again, it is one thing for uninformed people intimidated or fooled by the manipulation to be pursuing what they're told is good and necessary, but it is something very different when it is the producers of the models who willfully or through lack of understanding are doing the misleading...."

I would rather have a respected member of the scientific community address to me concerns about our environment than a failed Presidential candidate or members of the entertainment industry. Because clearly, there is an agenda behind the Global Warming "scare" without all of the facts being presented. Here is my opinion...let the public hear from as many people from the scientific community as possible on Global Warming, so we do not get a one-sided view of the issue.

A recent finding that has come forth from another person in the scientific community... sunspots are affecting our warming Earth and other planets in the solar system.

Dr Sami Solanki of the Institute for Astronomy in Zurich studies solar activity. His findings are as follows:

"...looking at the past 1,150 years the Sun has never been as active as it has been during the past 60 years.

Over the past few hundred years, there has been a steady increase in the numbers of sunspots, a trend that has accelerated in the past century, just at the time when the Earth has been getting warmer.

The data suggests that changing solar activity is influencing in some way the global climate causing the world to get warmer."

Others in the scientific community seem to support the claim that the sun is responsible for the Earth's warming, and the warming of other planets in our solar system. Russia's Habibullo Abdussamatov of Pulkovo Astronomical Observatory, the head of space research there, also asserts that the warming of the Earth andof Mars, is caused by the sun's changes.

"The long-term increase in solar irradiance is heating both Earth and Mars," said Abdussamatov.

"Man-made greenhouse warming has made a small contribution to the warming seen on Earth in recent years, but it cannot compete with the increase in solar irradiance," he said.

As one can see, there are many factors contributing to the condition of our Earth. The Global Warming hype that humans are solely to blame and they need to change their behavior is far fetched. People need not buy into that hype. Do thorough research on Global Warming before coming to a definitive decision on what is causing our Earth to experience the cycles in warming and cooling.

I want to live in a healthy environment, and I do what I can to make sure that I do, but I am not going to go out of my way to drastically change my way of life. For example, I am NOT going to take up the suggestion to cut back and use one sheet of toilet paper when using the bathroom, as Sheryl Crow suggested. Can we get real here?!

And I will NOT be suckered into attempts by environmental-crazed celebrities to take money from me for the "Save the Earth" cause. It's all hype and nonsense.

Bottom line, the answers are found among various experts in the scientific community and in the belief that God Almighty holds the Earth, and everything He created, in His hands. Now why should I worry about the Earth when He is ultimately in control?
