Earth hour is a religious sacrament!(Vanity)

I was just thinking about my plan to turn on all the lights and fans at 8:30 EDT this Saturday to commemorate "Earth Hour". The plan would be to use more energy than a moonbat household and offset...their sacrifice!

Why does being earth-friendly require sacrifice? I do good things all the time for the planet but it does not mean we sacrifice. Just as we do good deeds for animals but do not condone them getting lawyers to sue humans on their behalf or to be granted sentient status by some progressive judge. Christianty could be described as having evolved from the animal sacrifice of Abel to the new Covenent and treat thy neighbor as thyself. Warmingism then, is akin to a throwback religion that still requires sacrifice.

Earth hour is a chance for greenies to show themselves how devout they are but it really doesn’t mean anything.

I suspect my normal carbon footprint is much smaller than most of theirs on a normal day.

There’s a reason I haven’t taken the Christmas lights down.

I don’t think they really know what sacrifice is anyway. They just want to feel “special”.

Thats funny.

Just remember every }in-cool{ thing that the socialist/left comes up with was originally already set by Christians/Biblical.

They just use our wordage and put there on backwards meaning to it.

Social Justice/Earth Stewards ect...have no correlation from the Christian meaning and the socialist/Godless meaning.

Old trick of the jealous Fallen one.

As I heard it described (example) the other day God when asked who is he...I am who I am.
When Satan is asked the same question who is he...I am who I am not.

Hope I didnt mess it up I watched the Catholic program twice to try and get it right. : )

I also see this in terms of bad false Christianity.

If it is at 8:30 EDT what time are they going to do it on the Left Coast?

KV got a kick out of your idea as so did I.
So we are going to join you.

Of course we live in a rural area and have very few other neighbors but it would be fun and give us a good laugh.

Is somebody going to take a picture of the Earth Black out? Are just private homes doing this?

Cuz it would be cool if it was a complete black out except for Conservatives Lighting up and a satalite pic was taken.

And for you still have your Christmas lights up freepers here is a bit of history.

When God was banned (I cant remember if it was under Lenin or some other Marxist guy Govt) in this certain country (I cant remember) The Catholics would put a single burning light in the window as a signal to any Priest passing by to stop in for Mass/Holy Eucharist...
Hence Christmas Lights.

Ugh I dont drink coffee but it was rainy/cold and I had to be out in it so I stopped at Dutch Bros and got a Quad Shot Esspresso Coconut Coffee...that was nine hours ago and I have not shut up. LOL....
I dont know how you coffee people do it and sleep at night.

Turn on all your lights and appliances, idle your vehicle, and pop off a few rounds for good measure.

Christmas lights ...

Darn, now I have to go to the attic, get them out, string them up and plug them in! You guys are shaming me into it! However, I think I'll just go to home depot and buy the biggest spotlight I can find and point it at the house ... light her up! Yeah, that would be easier!

By the way, if you go to Home Depot to buy extra lights for this event ... don't forget to pick up the extension pole for changing lightbulbs on high ceilings. These are PERFECT for flying your Patriot Flag HIGH AND PROUD at a TeaParty. Only $19.95 while supplies last! :-)

Set up an electric grill on the porch to make sweet bread mix into waffles. Set up a barbecue for meat and vegetables. Burn some wood in an outdoor fireplace for ambiance and add baked potatoes and sweet potatoes to add a “cooking food” justification. Then offer all the neighbors over for free food. Any liberals cannot contest to carbon usage because it is to make food and it’s free.
Use the time to set up a neighborhood watch. Anyone so motivated to sit in the dark at home should not be part of your group.

I’m going to turn on every light. Don’t forget to open the fridge and the freezer so those little lights are on too.

speaking of idle we have a diesal bus w/lift for KV.

I was in the valley at a Costco (6hr round trip from home).

To run his WC lift you have to keep the bus idling (sic).

Sometimes older guys will watch me load/unload KV out of coureosity, which is fine.

This woman was standing among the couple of looker ons and once I got KV up in the bus and came out to close up the lift/doors she came up and told me that our diesal bus fumes were revolting.
I told her to have a nice day. Oh no she had to almost get in my face and re-itterate how revolting the fumes where.
Then she scurried away like a rat and I yelled out to her to stick it in her ear (which caught the attn of everyone, not good).

Then I thought How the heck does this Lady think all the stuff gets to COSTCO where she shops? Diesal Trucks.

LOL I could not figure out what good she did by filing a vocal complaint.
And if it was that bad why did you patiently (while smelling the diesal fumes) stand there untill KV was loaded up to make sure I go her complaint.

I guess this is what most Conservative Freepers deal with in the urban life, dingbats.
