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...]
We Pray for Grace to Endure Trials
Romans 8:18–23: … the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in … [Read more...]
A Month or Two Does Not a Long-term Trend Make
It was inevitable that when the current extra-strong El Nino resulted in some anomalously hot months the climate alarmists would declare victory, and, sure enough, when Drs. John Christy and Roy Spencer of University of Alabama Huntsville announced that the satellite global temperature data showed February the hottest month in the satellite record (which goes all the way back to the practically prehistoric year of 1979!), they did. One example among many: Mary Papenfuss's article in … [Read more...]
Forget the Almost-19-Year Global Warming “Pause”? How about 58 Years?
That's the implication of new analysis of NOAA radiosonde (weather balloon) data by Tony Heller at RealClimateScience.com. Heller begins: In their “hottest year ever” press briefing, NOAA included this graph, which stated that they have a 58 year long radiosonde temperature record. But they only showed the last 37 years in the graph. NESDIS Strategic Communications Here is why they are hiding the rest of the data. The earlier data showed as much pre-1979 cooling as the post-1979 … [Read more...]
Join us for the 2nd Annual Cornwall Day of Prayer for the Poor and the Environment
March 25 is the birthday of Nobel Peace Prize winner Dr. Norman Borlaug, “Father of the Green Revolution” and “The Man Who Fed the World” by his work increasing crop yields around the world. Borlaug’s amazing achievements not only fed, and continue to feed, billions of people, but also improve all of the world’s environment. Why? Because they reduce the need to convert natural lands to farmlands by enabling farmers to grow more food on every acre. That makes him a hero not only of the poor … [Read more...]
Help Us Speak the Truth in Love We Pray
Philippians 2:1–4: So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Heavenly Father, throughout the ages Your people, the … [Read more...]
Two Climate Scientists Offer Cases for and against Climate Alarmism
It's fairly unusual to find a balanced presentation of both sides in the global warming debate in any publication, so I'm glad to be able to recommend one. Our good friend Will Happer, whom we interviewed for our documentary video Where the Grass Is Greener: Biblical Stewardship vs. Climate Alarmism, was interviewed by TheBestSchools.org, and the full interview is here. Presenting the opposite perspective was Dr. David Karoly, whose interview is here. At some future time they're supposed to … [Read more...]
