First of all, in Genesis 8:22, we're told of a promise by God never to use global floodwaters again as a means of destroying life on Earth. In that promise, the Bible explicitly states: "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."
In other words, no more cataclysmic floods the result Al Gore promises in the near future as a consequence of global warming. Just as importantly, there is another promise there that cold and heat shall not cease.
What does that mean?
It means God controls the world's temperature, not man. God controls the climate, not man. God controls the earth's "eco-system," not man. God controls our environment, not man.

Amen and AMEN
God's caveat.
Excellent article....very well written.
So be it.
So say we all.
Pardon me, but I read this article and this guy, as usual, is a loon.
“Pay no attention to the weather. Only God controls the weather. The Bible says so, and the Bible is PERFECT!”
Silly nonsense. Ask any meteorologist. The weather may not be completely predictable, but it’s not like God strikes a thunderstorm wherever he wants. Meteorological events happen in a chain reaction due to interactions between the atmosphere and the earth below it. Farah’s mindset reminds me of those ancient Greeks who thought Zeus threw thunderbolts.
Biblically speaking, Mr. Farah ought to read the Revelation. That will put a nice pinprick into this balloon of hot air.
A far more logical argument can be (and is each day) made against global warming.
I disagree with his premise that producting CO2 is not displeasing to God. Certainly not in a normal sense, because we need it to breathe. But, wasting resources and over consumption is a sin, and therefore displeasing to God.
Even if there is no global warming, there is plenty of waste and excess in our society. Conserving our natural resources and using them wisely is well in keeping with the Biblical message. It would be very beneficial to the country as well.
Before time started, for all time to come.
Our economic system eliminates more waste than any other. As for excesses, how would you know what displeases God? What we have is a blessing from Him.

Believe it!
Destroy our economy (sending the trillions in taxes to the notoriously corrupt UN for “nothing”) - while harming the world’s poor and developing countries for “nothing” based on invalid science and hysteria?
NO.
We are guardians of the earth - according to Genesis - not socialists aiming at economic world control by false science and mis-used statistics threatening the world’s ignorant masses by propaganda and lies.
I didn’t say we should buy into any of the global warming science. I just think there is a lot of room for conservation in this country, and there is a tremendous amount of waste. Decreasing our waste in government and our personal lives would be a good thing, that is all I meant to say.
Guys and Gals, study geologic time tables. I am no scientist, but was educated in VT (when it meant something).
Britain was semi-tropical 11,000 years ago.
Lake Champlain used to connect to the sea around the same time. And if you caught the History channel last night, the “Champ” story was on again.
Ancient civilizations in Peru used to over-farm thier lands (then died off). The Nile area around the Pyramids and the Valley of the Dead used to be much more lush (See sediment around the sphinx.
Studies of the Mt. St. Helens eruption computed that more destructive gases flowed into the upper atmosphere than in the entire American Industrial Revolution.
I also believe in God and the Trinity. But my Mother, Brother, Sister and most of the rest of my family don’t.
So no one is suppost to listen to me you see.
But I am forgiven. Good thing huh? Because I don’t think we have much to fear from Earth and Nature. We were born to live in it.
What I fear are the rest of the 5 billion some odd, who don’t have the Faith.
HERITCS!
Back in 1964 the commercial suggested that we were all gonna get nuked if Goldwater got elected. Back then the liberals assured us - along with the MSM - that we were a hairsbreadth away from certain nuclear annihilation and that people had their finger on “the button” all the time, just waiting for the right moment to blow everyone up. School children across the country practiced hiding under their little desks in the event of nuclear detonation.
It was ridiculous then. It is ridiculous now.
How about our certain extinction as a result of the population explosion? We were all supposed to die in, like, 1984 as a result of not being able to sustain ourselves. Starvation. Lack of water. We were all gonna die!
Algore is the new Daisy Girl, and once again the liberals - just like they did for the whole nuclear scare, and the population explosion - are certain we are all going to perish under globull warming. One thing is a constant. Liberal are always WRONG.
What we have is a blessing from God, and he expects us to use it wisely. I know that waste displeases God because Jesus tells me this in the way he lived his life.
John 6:12, Jesus, after he has fed the multitudes with loaves and fishes, tells his disciples to “gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is lost.”
Our ecomonic system is the most efficient and successful in the world. It does not necessarily eliminate waste, in fact in many ways it does just the opposite.
I don’t advocate changing our economic system, or joining the Kyoto protocol. My only point is that there is much waste in this world that could be easily eliminated. I don’t know whether global warming is real or not, or whether it is man made. But I do know that waste is not a good thing.
