Proverbs 18:17: The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him. John 8:32: … you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. Heavenly Father, some American officials are calling for civil and possible criminal investigations of those who, like us at the Cornwall Alliance, contest the idea that the use of fossil fuels is causing potentially catastrophic global warming.

We Pray for Protection and Wisdom
Lord, I know many are praying for a stop to global warming with the strong belief that we are damaging the environment by our use of fossil fuels. But I believe those fuels have been provided to us as a means to minimize human suffering and to act as a bridge to the time when technology will be able to provide free energy to all peoples and every society on earth. My prayers are for protection from the potential of a cooling earth. I pray for wisdom to be provided to our leaders that they … [Read more...]
What Good Are Fossil Fuels Other than for Energy?
In the midst of a worldwide “holy crusade” to demonize fossil fuels, blaming them for alleged (but not real) catastrophic global warming, it is increasingly essential that more and more ordinary citizens like you and me understand what’s at stake.

That’s why we’re … [Read more...]
Make Me an Instrument of Your Peace
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love, Where there is injury, pardon Where there is doubt, faith, Where there is despair, hope, Where there is darkness, light, Where there is sadness, joy.

The Lord’s Prayer
Matthew 6: 5-14 ESV 5 “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others.

Ocean Acidification—Well, Maybe Not So Much
As global temperature remains well below alarmists' predictions, environmentalists continue to promote devastation from "ocean acidification" as their next rationale for clamping down on CO2 emissions. But as a new article in the ICES Journal of Marine Science makes clear, the actual scientific evidence for such devastation is slim, and the primary reason why so much gets published about it seems to be not scientific but political/sociological. As Ben Webster summarized in The Times (London): … [Read more...]
