The Sun makes this planet warm. It’s disturbing that the concept is considered heretical.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at LIVE EARTH

Kennedy calls "climate change" deniers to be "traitors" guilty of "treason," and that he'll "see all of you on the barricades." The video has been yanked from other websites. If you haven't heard it, click the link before it is yanked there too. It's still working and only 6 minutes long.

Saint Peter says in his 2nd letter: "10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare. 11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? "

Al Gore should worry a bit less about his phony global warming and a bit more about the one God has planned.

While clouds make days cooler, don’t they also make nights warmer?

Nope! We’re guilty of “reason”.

They don't make nights warmer, they just trap the heat of the day. So, if the days are cooler, the nights will be cooler, too.

Clouds, not just the temperature, make the difference if you have frost or not.

That description sounds like either nuclear war, or a comet or asteroid impact.

Be careful what you wish for.

(I’m not too worried, folks have been predicting an imminent Apocalypse since 100 years after Christ died.)

He’s not talking about an Apocalypse.

He’s talking about the time when this world actually ends.
Whether approached from religion or science, both say it will end. Interestingly, both say it will end with fire.

Yes, but in practical terms there’s quite a difference between it ending next Tuesday or in a billion years or so.

That’s a good point though, perhaps the most literal interpretation of that passage might be what happens as the Sun enlarges to the point that it engulfs the Earth. Talk about global warming! rofl

Get this guy to a reeducation camp - he can’t be thinking these thoughts - the debate has been officially declared over.

Dr. Fox is abusing reason. He’s showing too much of it, and making Albert Gore look like a prettied-up chimp.

Yes it does and yes it is disturbing isn't it ?

I still remember reading about global cooling as a youngster, going to the "scientific" exhibits at the nature museums talking about the coming ice age etc.

Ironically we were supposed to stop global cooling by doing the same things we are now supposed to do to stop global warming.
