For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Subject: Fw: Carbon emissions








This is certainly true, but the underlying logical argument isn't sound. This is like each of us saying that because there is so much crime it doesn't matter if we steal a little too.







Volcanoes are the real historical climate changers (besides Bacteria inventing photosynthesis). However, unlike bacteria we can choose to reduce our emissions, just in case we do manage to last 50 or 100 million years. The professor's argument is really only sound if the human race only lasts another 100,000 years, in which case we can do whatever we want, and it won't make much difference.

Just thought you might enjoy this little piece of reality:







Professor Ian Plimer (a member of the School of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Adelaide . He is also a joint member of the School of Civil, Environmental and Mining Engineering) could not have said it better!



The volcanic eruption in Iceland, since its first spewing of volcanic ash has, in just FOUR DAYS, NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made



in the past five years to control CO2 emissions on our planet, all of you.



Of course you know about this evil carbon dioxide that we are trying to suppress, that vital chemical compound that every plant requires to live



and grow, and to synthesize into oxygen for us humans, and all animal life.



I know, it's very disheartening to realise that all of the carbon emission savings you have accomplished while suffering the inconvenience and expense of: driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kid's "The Green Revolution" science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling



your SUV and speedboat, holidaying at home instead of abroad, nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of your 50 pence light bulbs with £5.00 light bulbs...well, all of those things you have done have all gone down the tubes in just four days.



The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four days - yes - FOUR DAYS ONLY by that volcano in Iceland, has totally erased



every single effort you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon. And there are around 200 active volcanoes on the planet spewing out this



crud any one time - EVERY DAY.



I don't really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should mention that when the volcano Mt Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991,



it spewed out more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the entire human race had emitted in its entire YEARS on earth. Yes folks, Mt Pinatubo was active for over one year, think about it.



Of course I shouldn't spoil this touchy-feely tree-hugging moment and mention the effect of solar and cosmic activity and the well-recognized



800-year global heating and cooling cycle, which keep happening, despite our completely insignificant efforts to affect climate change.



And I do wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud but the fact of the matter is that the bush fire season across the western USA and Australia this year alone will negate your efforts to reduce carbon in our world for the next two to three years. And it happens every year.



Just remember that your government just tried to impose a whopping carbon tax on you on the basis of the bogus ''human-caused'' climate



change scenario.



Hey, isn't it interesting how they don't mention ''Global Warming'' any more, but just ''Climate Change'' - you know why? It's because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past century and these global warming bull artists got caught with their pants down.



And just keep in mind that you might yet have an Emissions Trading Scheme (that whopping new tax) imposed on you, that will achieve



absolutely nothing except make you poorer. It won't stop any volcanoes from erupting, that's for sure.



But hey, relax, give the world a hug and have a nice day!
