Dear Father in Heaven, We pray for the countries in Africa that are going through decades of poverty. We pray for those who don’t have access to clean water, nutritious food and basic educational institutions. Let there be peace in parts that are experiencing civil and militant wars. Provide us wisdom and discernment regarding disease control measures, so that millions of those without basic healthcare can be saved from diseases. We also pray for those on the ground in Africa, and … [Read more...]

Help Us We Pray
Heavenly Father, please help the people of planet Earth to realize that carbon dioxide is plant food, not a poisonous gas. May there be a massive outbreak of common sense so that the majority of ordinary people will object to the suicide pact which environmentalists want everybody to join in. Amen. This prayer was submitted for use by Bruce Atchinson in Cornwall Alliance's 2016 Day of Prayer for the Environment and the Poor. … [Read more...]
Did You Want Electricity with Your Fried Eagle?
Let's see now. The controversial Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System, financed with $1.5 billion in federal loans, using sunlight reflected from 170,000 mirrors to heat boilers atop 450-foot-high towers, received on average $200 per megawatt-hour during summer months and $135 for the rest of the year but is likely to go bust. Meanwhile, PG&E pays $57 per megawatt-hour for power generated by more conventional solar plants, and $35 per megawatt-hour for power generated by natural gas … [Read more...]
What Made February So Hot?
Anthony Watts reports, "One graph proves that record high year of 2015 and record months of 2016 are not AGW driven." The graph? This one, by Ryan Maue of WeatherBell: Then there's another, from NOAA/NESDIS: Watts writes: "For all those people that want to claim 2015/2016 “proves” that human caused global warming is at work (while at the same time ignoring a record El Niño event as seen above), this graph indisputably proves that the El Niño is the driver of record high … [Read more...]
Is Sea Level Rise Accelerating? A Look at the Evidence
The latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment report claims that the rate of sea level rise from 1993 to 2010 was roughly twice that from 1901 to 2010, offering one of the strongest reasons for alarm about anthropogenic global warming. But a major review by Kenneth Richard of recent journal publications on the subject finds little to no basis for the claim. Says Richard: According to the IPCC (2013), sea levels rose at a rate of 1.7 mm/year (6.7 inches per century) for the … [Read more...]
“Feminist Glaciology”? Yes, You Read that Right
Thanks to a $413,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to University of Oregon historian Mark Carey, we all can now read a 15,000-word rant on glaciology from a feminist perspective. Tony Thomas, in The Quadrant, isn't laughing, not because it's not funny but because it's such a waste. Thomas's article reveals some of the hilarity and irrationality of "feminist glaciology," and lots of other feminist "analysis." In it we get introduced to women (or should I say womyn?) writers who … [Read more...]
St. Patrick’s Prayer for Fellow Christians
The story of St. Patrick is one of great faith and forgiveness. He was a slave who returned to the land of his captors to tell them of the love of Christ. Surprisingly the Patron Saint of Ireland is not Irish, but British. This was St. Patrick's prayer for his fellow believers in Christ. May the Strength of God pilot us. May the Power of God preserve us. May the Wisdom of God instruct us. May the Hand of God protect us. May the Way of God direct us. May the Shield of God … [Read more...]
We Pray for the Alleviation of Poverty
Galatians 2:10: … they asked us to remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do. Lord, we Christians in America are so blessed with material abundance! Thank You! But let us not take that blessing for granted, or want to keep it only for ourselves. Open our eyes to the desperate need of the many poor around the world, especially those who are our brothers and sisters in Christ. Help us to see, and to act on, opportunities to help them, whether directly through gifts, or indirectly … [Read more...]
More Saber-Rattling by the Enemies of Free Speech and Real Science
Last week U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch told Congress that her department has discussed taking civil legal action (under RICO, the Racketeer-Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act) against "climate deniers" (whatever those are---I don't know any). “This matter has been discussed. We have received information about it and have referred it to the FBI to consider whether or not it meets the criteria for which we could take action on,” she said at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing … [Read more...]
