Check out http://wnho.net/global_warming.htm The official position of the World Natural Health Organization in regards to global warming is that there is NO GLOBAL WARMING! Global warming is nothing more than just another hoax, just like Y2K and the global freezing claims in the 1960's and 70's were. Global warming is being used to generate fear and panic. Those behind this movement are using it to control people's lives and for financial gain. There are not many individuals, groups, or organizations willing to stand up against this fraud that is being perpetuated for fear of being persecuted, harassed, and ostracized by those who support global warming within the scientific and other communities. But fortunately, a few have decided to do the right thing and take a stand against this evil, proving just how unscientifically founded global warming is and exposing those who are behind it. Below, you will find links to information and articles showing the proof that global warming is nothing more than just a bunch of hot air (pun intended). The date that you see by each headline is the date when it was posted here. If you know of a news story, research, or information that should be posted here, please let us know and provide us with a link. The articles posted for previous years have been archived and links are provided to them; by year; at the bottom of this page. unquote I remember Y2K. in 1999 before Y2K, I went out and bought a wood stove and had a chimney put in at great expense. Thought we could lose electric power and no natural gas heat on Y2K. Well the wood stove worked fine, but nothing happened on Y2K. Another "scientific" hoax.

Another website has some interesting info from a scientist: quote: Mike Van Biezen, a professor of Physics, Mathematics, Astronomy, and Earth Science and a former believer in the global warming hoax, has presented a definitive debunking that will probably earn him IRS audits every year that liberals are in power. To summarize: 1. Temperature records from around the world do not support the assumption that today’s temperatures are unusual. 2. Satellite temperature data does not support the assumption that temperatures are rising rapidly. 3. Current temperatures are always compared to the temperatures of the 1980’s, but for many parts of the world the 1980’s was the coldest decade of the last 100+ years. 4. The world experienced a significant cooling trend between 1940 and 1980. 5. Urban heat island effect skews the temperature data of a significant number of weather stations. 6. There is a natural inverse relationship between global temperatures and atmospheric CO2 levels. 7. The CO2 cannot, from a scientific perspective, be the cause of significant global temperature changes. 8. There have been many periods during our recent history that a warmer climate was prevalent long before the industrial revolution. 9. Glaciers have been melting for more than 150 years. 10. “Data adjustment” is used to continue the perception of global warming. unquote http://rightwingnews.com/climate-change/ten-reasons-know-anthropogenic-global-warming-hoax/

Check out Ten Reasons Climate Change is a Hoax Here are five reasons: 1. Record Ice In 2014 there was record sea ice in Antarctica in fact a global warming expedition got stuck in it. Arctic sea ice has also made a nice comeback in 2014. The Great lakes had record ice Lake Superior only had 3 ice free months in 2014. You’d think that in the hottest year ever that ice would be melting like Al Gore said. 2. Record Snow 2014 saw record snowfall in many areas, remember when they said that global warming would cause snow to disappear and children won’t know what snow is. 3. Record Cold In 2014 we saw all kinds of cold records remember the Polar Vortex? You’d think that we’d be breaking all kinds of heat records in “the hottest year ever” 4. Oceans Are Rising Much Less Than Predicted Al Gore predicted that oceans would rise 20 feet by 2100, it looks like were on track for about a foot. 80% of the tide gauges show less rise than the official “global average”. Many tide gauges show no rise in sea level, and almost none show any acceleration over the past 20 years. 5. Polar Bears Are Thriving You’d think that Polar Bears would really be in trouble in 2014 “the hottest year ever” but they are thriving. http://www.globalclimatescam.com/opinion/top-ten-reasons-climate-change-is-a-hoax/ Where I live we had one of the coldest and longest winters with frequent snow than has happened here for a long time. People can make all the theoretical claims they like, but if the observations don't support their claims, then they should discard them.

Those who believe in the hoax of man-made global warming should contribute their own money and keep their hands off everyone else's. But alas SJWs and leftist millionaire politicians feel free to help themselves to everyone else's money with the phony carbon pricing and carbon taxes, while they take extravagant vacations on taxpayer's money.

Whether one believe in the supernatural nature of the Bible, apparently archeological discoveries often have verified the accuracy of much historical data in the Bible.

I added a little more information to my previous post as an amendment after you made a comment.

Even if you do not believe in the bible as a written revelation for God, and would therefore not believe God gave the Jews that promised land as recorded in the Bible, the historical fact is that Israel did exist in that area several thousands years ago, for a very long period of time, until Rome destroyed Jerusalem in 70 A.D. and the surviving Jews scattered to different countries. The land was fought over much in the past 2000 years. Then in the 20th century many Jews returned to the land and the nation of Israel was proclaimed in 1948. Incidentally, the city of Jerusalem is not even mentioned in the Quran while Jerusalem is mentioned frequently in the Old Testament, which is also basically the Jewish Bible and now part of the Christian Bible. I believe Mecca is mentioned in the Quran as an important centre for Islam. But Jerusalem is the eternal holy city for Jews right through history and the Old Testament. The Jewish temple had been built by King Solomon in Jerusalem. It was destroyed around the time of the Babylonian captivity. After the Jews were released from captivity and the King of Persia, Cyrus, allowed the captives to go back to Jerusalem and rebuild the temple. Then it was destroyed by the Romans in 70 A.D. Subsequently after Islam was started in the 7th century, the Muslims built the Dome of the Rock right on top of the Jewish temple mount. That is what stand there today.

I never said Arabs in the region were not Semitic people.. I also never said people who call themselves Palestinians were not Semitic people. Jews, Palestinians, Arabs are all Semitic people. The definition of Semite -- a member of any of the peoples supposed to be descended from Shem, son Noah, including esp. the Jews, Arabs, Assyrians, and Phoenicians. (compact Oxford Canadian Dictionary). Dictionary definition of Arab -- a member of a Semitic people originally inhabiting Saud Arabia and the neighbouring countries, now the Middle East generally. Wikipedia definition of Palestine -- Quote Palestine (Arabic: فلسطين‎‎ Filasṭīn, Falasṭīn, Filisṭīn; Greek: Παλαιστίνη, Palaistinē; Latin: Palaestina; Hebrew: פלשתינה Palestina) is a geographic region in Western Asia between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. It is sometimes considered to include adjoining territories. The name was used by Ancient Greek writers, and was later used for the Roman province Syria Palaestina, the Byzantine Palaestina Prima, and the Islamic provincial district of Jund Filastin. The region comprises most of the territory claimed for the biblical regions known as the Land of Israel (Hebrew: ארץ־ישראל Eretz-Yisra'el), the Holy Land or Promised Land. Historically, it has been known as the southern portion of wider regional designations such as Canaan, Syria, ash-Sham, and the Levant. Situated at a strategic location between Egypt, Syria and Arabia, and the birthplace of Judaism and Christianity, the region has a long and tumultuous history as a crossroads for religion, culture, commerce, and politics. The region has been controlled by numerous peoples, including Ancient Egyptians, Canaanites, Israelites and Judeans, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Ancient Greeks and Macedonians, the Jewish Hasmonean Kingdom, Romans, Byzantines, the Arab Rashidun, Umayyad, Abbasid and Fatimid caliphates, Crusaders, Ayyubids, Mamluks, Mongols, Ottomans, the British, and modern Israelis, Jordanians, Egyptians and Palestinians. The boundaries of the region have changed throughout history. Today, the region comprises the State of Israel and the Palestinian territories in which the State of Palestine was declared. Unquote I hope this information will be helpful. I realize it does not answer the question as to whether the State of Israel is a legitimate state or not. One's view of that will probably depend on one's belief about biblical history and how the state came to be re-established in 1948.

Generally I think the reason government doesn't like property rights, is because it gives the citizens some clout or defence against an arbitrary government and forces the government to justify on a legal basis why they want to take away someone's property. Government would rather see citizens with no property rights to make governing a lot easier.

I think if private property were recognized in the Constitution, they could easily have an exception allowing government to buy private property for reasonable market value for the purpose of pipelines, infrastructure, railways, etc providing there was a mechanism to determine that it was a necessity in the general public's or nations interest. Private property should be in the Constitution to guarantee protection of property owners from such things as politicians negotiating away private property to settle native land claims because a handful of natives decide they want a share in some gold discovered or other natural resource on some farmer's field or in some small town. There could be all kinds of scenarios where someone's property could be threatened. We live in a society which has a Constitution and Charter of Rights and countless laws and precedents that make it a field day for lawyers and special interest groups to make claims. If there is one thing we have learned, it is that unless something is spelled out clearly and specifically, it is up for grabs by countless lawyers and special interest groups. Another thing that should raise alarm bells with Canadians is the Calls to Action, a long document with incredibly demands on Canada, as a result of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission report. People should read the demands for action. If the government actually accepted all these demands, Canada would be totally bankrupt and the country would be turned over to the aboriginal people completely. It is one major reason we need property rights because without it in the Constitution, Canadians who own property could be under threat in the future. Considering some of the Supreme Court Rulings in recent years and the Truth and Reconciliation Commissions Report: Calls to Action , there are good reasons for Canadians to raise alarm bells about the right to private property in Canada. Calls to Action is full of demands that should be of major concern. For example, Quote 47. We call upon federal, provincial, territorial, and municipal governments to repudiate concepts used to justify European sovereignty over Indigenous peoples and lands, such as the Doctrine of Discovery ... unquote http://www.trc.ca/websites/trcinstitution/File/2015/Findings/Calls_to_Action_English2.pdf

There are many website with the history of Israel. This is just one. I cannot say it is perfect as I am not a historian on Israel. But it seems reasonable. There is a concise chronology chart which you can view easily. It goes back at least 3000 years. http://history-of-israel.org/history/time_line.php Incidentally the name Palestinian was invented by the Roman Empire about 2000 years ago as a sort of poke at the Jews. It came from the name of the Philistines, Israel's ancient enemy in the Old Testament. Recall the story of David and Goliath. The Palestinians are simply Arabs who live throughout the various countries in the region.

I asked you a simple question, does Israel have a right to exist? You are being evasive. It is dishonest to post all that info and then not answer the simple question. It's part of the anti Israel strategy I guess to not admit they have a right to exist.

You won't answer so I take that as a no. You don't recognize Israel's right to exist then.

Convoluted answer. About as clear as mud. Do you accept Israel's right to exist?

To be fair, I just watched your video. I view it as a Palestinian propaganda video. Historically the land of Israel belongs to Israel. Would you accept that Israel has a right to exist?

I'll take a look at it if it isn't a long, drawn out thing.

Because I am speaking to other people. I don't really usually try to debate with you because it would be fruitless. I would like to but would we ever agree on anything? Have you found anyone who agrees with you?

The Federal Green Party adopted a motion to support BDS at one of it's conventions, but this gave themselves an anti Israel reputation and their leader, Elizabeth May, somehow got the party to agree to some kind of backtracking or modification of the motion. I am not sure what their position is now. I think BDS is basically an anti Israel organization. Most of the UN motions concerning the Israel-Palestinian conflict have been against Israel. I don't see any way this issue being settled until the Palestinians all recognize Israel's right to exist.

You have to admit you are quite predictable yourself. If I gave you a rational opinion about Israel, I am sure you would not accept a word of it, sigh.......which makes it next to impossible to discuss with you as much as I would like to. It's a shame really. If you could give a basis for your beliefs and why you think the way you do, maybe we could have a discussion, but you won't even do that much.

Glad you found it helpful. Always like to be informative.

A lot of people think man-made global warming is fake including a lot of scientists. People like Trudeau committed 2.65 billion dollars of Canadian taxpayer money to third world countries to help them deal with climate change, without asking Canadians. Not to mention the vast amounts of money he gives away to other countries for various causes dear to his heart. At least Trump is standing up for the people, unlike Trudeau.

The BDS movement is defined on this link. https://bdsmovement.net/what-is-bds Basically it is an anti Israel Palestinian organization that tries to use boycotts against Israel.

Makes one wonder if this is a systemic problem in the airline industry or just an isolated individual. I have flown occassionaly on provincial routes in Canada, but have never seen any bad behaviour by flight attendants.

Argentina is having demonstrations now as well. Governments that seize companies and intervene in the economy in a drastic way seem to have more trouble than others that let the free market run freely. I think it said on the news that Venezuela has at least 25% unemployment. Marxism, socialism (state intervention in the economy) has proven to be a failure where ever it is attempted. I see the problem as boiling down to respect for private ownership of property and private investment. Governments that do not respect this principle seem to create chaos and social unrest. The marxist revolution in Cuba 57 years ago may have had a temporary effect of spreading the poverty around to everyone. But the lasting effect has been a much lower standard of living and loss of freedom and repression of tens of thousands of people. Only lately have things improved marginally because the government is allowing people to have small businesses and operate some free enterprise. This all comes down to biblical principles of respect for private property, respect for individuals efforts and respect for individual rights. Once government tramples on those rights, people lose hope and despair sets in, distrust of government because they see those in authority lining their own pockets at the expense of the general population.

These demonstrations ostensibly in support of "science", taking place today, Apr. 22, seem to have a strong political overtone. Most of it seems to be anti-Trump protests with various liberal or leftist causes thrown in such as climate change, anti Trump cutting budget in certain areas. I would say they are not much more than anti-Trump or anti-Trump agenda protests, which is nothing new.
