The Quandary of the Usual
Something unusual is happening on Isle Royale. What’s to be done? Before we consider this, let’s consider another story. Let’s see what Mommy’s friends are up to.

It is taught daily in North America’s schools and … [Read more...]
What Threatens Liberty and Increases Abortion, Human Trafficking, Government Debt, and Poverty?
Conservatives, Christian and non-Christian alike, share concerns about civil and religious liberty, abortion and the sanctity of human life, human trafficking and pornography and how they damage families, fiscal responsibility in government, and poverty. What many don’t know is that there are links between climate alarmism and every one of these issues. Let me take them in reverse order. First, climate alarmism undermines fiscal responsibility in government. Not only do governments … [Read more...]
Humans Are Special in the Eyes of God
Christian scientists discuss the image of God in humankind, and the importance of trying to look at human beings from God's. All human beings are special. How is this relevant to the climate debate? Alarmists denounce humankind as a "cancer on the earth" and claim that the earth is over populated. Many climate change policies perpetuate poverty and condemn millions to continued suffering, and an early death. Watch the video to learn more. … [Read more...]
The Dangerous Linkage of Government and Science—Ike Was Right
President Dwight D. Eisenhower was a great man, a true lover of liberty, and very suspicious of the power of government at the same time that he recognized its necessity. Millions of Americans would benefit enormously from reading his Farewell Address. Most have heard of the "military-industrial complex" but don't know that it was Eisenhower who warned of it. Very few know that in the same speech he warned of the twin dangers of government dominance in scientific research and of a … [Read more...]

Climate McCarthyism Alive and Well in France
France Télévisions’ chief weather forecaster, Philippe Verdier, boldly told the world in his new book Climat Investigation that the IPCC and other climate alarmists are guilty of “taking the world hostage” to bad science, bad economics, and bad politics. It didn’t take long for the axe to fall. France Télévisions, a government-run station, put him on “forced holiday” as punishment. According to the UK Telegraph, “unions at France Television called for Mr Verdier to be fired, but that Delphine … [Read more...]
Bill Gates Gets It on Wind and Solar
In an interview published in The Atlantic, billionaire Microsoft founder Bill Gates had two very astute observations about wind and solar energy: On the limits of wind power and solar photovoltaic cells: Wind has grown super-fast, on a very subsidized basis. Solar, off a smaller base, has been growing even faster—again on a highly subsidized basis. But it’s absolutely fair to say that even the modest R&D that’s been done, and the various deployment incentives that are there, have worked … [Read more...]
