I was watching the Weather Channel and was quite disappointed in the blatant omission of God and the Bible. The Bible frequently mentions weather events such as the Great Flood during Noah's time, the Plague of Hail and Elias' power of prayer. The Bible quite clearly states that God is the cause behind the weather, as we can see from these scriptural examples:
Leviticus 26:4 - Then I will give you rain in due season
Nahum 1:3 - …the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm,
1 Samuel 12:18 - So Samuel called unto the LORD; and the LORD sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel.
Jonah 1:4 - But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea,
Can any scientist show us that clouds just form all on their own? How can any scientist prove this? How can any scientist prove that weather patterns are not directed by a divine force? You see, the difference between me, Al Roker and other “weather men” is simply a matter of interpreting the data.
The pagan, naturalistic explanation for weather patterns has only lead to increased immorality in the last 150 years, and ever since the advent of broadcast news -- which beams secular "weather reports" into everyone's homes each night -- entire generations have been indoctrinated into believing nontheistic explanations for weather and climate. Is it any coincidence that rampant immorality virtually exploded with the first generation raised on television…the Baby Boomers? Because if people don't believe that their behavior causes God to literally rain down meteorological judgment upon them, then who knows what kinds of sins they'll commit!
Al Gore's Detour: Climate Change Correlates With Corruption
Evolutionists and other liberals claim that increased fossil fuel consumption is causing the earth's climate to change, which is leading to severe weather. They call this “anthropogenic climate change”, which means it was caused by mankind’s actions. But just like their other claim about molecules to man, this is just a matter of how one interprets the data.
Of course, we’ve known for millennia that the weather has been anthropogenically caused! So if we put our Biblical glasses on, we can match the data to increased tolerance towards homosexuality and corrupt, sinful behavior in general. Now, scientists say that last year was the warmest year ever recorded. And last year saw an increasing number of states that legalized Sodomite marriages. The Bible contains many examples of God using the weather and so forth as a form of punishment. So instead of calling it simply Global Warming Theory, we should call it the Global Sodom and Gomorrah Theory.
Of course, we as Creationists can demonstrate our unselfish love of the environment by trying to delay the damage done by sin. You all love polar bears and baby seals, don’t you, kids? Why should these innocent creatures suffer the consequences of mankind’s wicked ways? By pledging at least $20 to our ministry, we’ll send a box of tuna fish to keep those polar bears from going hungry, and more importantly, keep busy reminding everyone that marriage is between one man and one woman only.
