The Gas Cloud of Human Thinking

(This is a modification of an older post)...



It is increasingly sad that so many are drawn aside into the false religion of environmentalism. As it turns out, the news is no longer that we are trying to avoid a 2 degree rise in global temperature. Now we are to be frightening ourselves with the prospect of dropping temperatures because the earth is making a correction for our terrible misbehaviour in regard to the environment.  My, what a difference a few months makes!

We might as well be an ancient isolated tribe, living in fear, darkness and treachery on the Dark Continent somewhere. We've been looking for a witch doctor that is bold enough to claim he has power to change the climate because the gods are angry with our behavior.  We did just elect leaders that promised action to address this very fear.

As it turns out, we are not being deceived by our fear as much as by our own arrogance. Little humans actually think that we are big enough to change the weather in this world that God has made. If we cannot change the weather in the next few minutes, why do we think that our activity, or lack of it, can change it in 10 years? God would not be God if He would allow His creation to be manipulated by man's normal activities. We destroyed all that we could thousands of years ago.  That was back when history was being recorded, but the prevailing wisdom doesn't want to acknowledge it because they would have to deal with the true I AM.

The leaders don't care whether climate change is real or not. They are using our arrogance for their own gain while we wring our hands. We think we are such a sophisticated, advanced, evolved society.  Look what "hundreds of thousands of years of evolution" have done for the human race in particular.  Why, we really haven't improved have we?

"The arrogance of your heart has deceived you" Obadiah 1:3
 
It's really sad to see the gas cloud of human thinking being blown about by destructive-shepherd-wind-bags.  However, it's God's way to reveal the futility of human thinking apart from Him; for those who are paying attention.  Pray that there are many who will see the bankrupt nature of our thinking and turn to the One who wants all men to come to Him.
