Jesus Christ was not real!

Jesus Christ was not real! or so some assume.

Now that we have your attention, let talk about “Climate Change”. As a young boy I roamed the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains near my family’s farm. On the sides of the hills were ancient seashells. In the river valleys were remnants of the last Ice Age, in the history of the earth not in the so distant past things have been far different.

One particular winter of 1978, the snow was melting and the temparture was a balmy 65 degrees. On the same day, the temperature dropped nearly 50 degrees and one of the worst blizzards in modern history hit the Mid-West, Ohio Valley into the Northeast.

National Geographic ran an article in Nat Geo magazine in the late ‘70’s or early ‘80’s on Greenland and the discovery of Nordic villages and garden plots, fences for keeping farm animals. Within the last few hundred years the Earth’s climate has swung wildly. In the last several thousand years who knows.

Science itself is still imperfect. To claim we know everything is the truly the ultimate arrogance. If we knew everything, we could thoroughly explain the Nazca lines, but we only have theories. We could say without a doubt that God is or is not real. But we don’t know. Do we really know the cycles of our planet? What killed the Dinosaurs, disease, comet, super volcano? We only have educated guesses.

Is the Sun getting hotter? The following is a excerpt from Secrets of the Universe, published in 1999.

“Scientists have been measuring the Sun’s out for many years, initially from ground level, and now from space. It’s level is almost constant, varying less than 1% over many years. But even a small change like this can have a marked effect on our climate. Between the 16th and 18th centuries the Earth was gripped by a “Little Ice Age”. The Climate became colder and caused rivers such as the Thames in London to freeze over in winter, allowing “frost fairs” to be held on the ice. Since then the Thames has never frozen…. The temperature of the Sun has hardly varied. However, flare ups in the Sun’s output lasting 200 or 300 years would not be expected to show up in fossil records.”

In 1972 Douglas Gough at Cambridge University suggested that we may be entering this very stage of a period of Sun warming, due to periodic instability. Wow! Imagine that, something we don’t know about! How many billions of dollars have been awarded as grants, how many billions more have been spent by the world’s governments on global warming.

To seek knowledge is admirable, to assume we have ultimate knowledge is insanity.
