Al, This Is Out Of Your League

Al, This Is Out Of Your League

I’m sure you’ve heard about the disruption of air travel into and out of Europe, leaving thousands of passengers stranded on the opposite side of the Atlantic from where they want to be.

And this event was actually caused by pollution.

Al Gore has warned us for years that pollution was going to cause catastrophic problems in the years to come ruining the air quality, driving the polar bear into extinction and causing a greenhouse effect that could spell the end of life on the earth.

They’ve warned us about the imminent danger of cow flatulence and CO2 emissions. Did you ever stop to think that by the very act of breathing in we gobble up the planet’s precious oxygen and by exhaling we emit the deadly CO2?

So was mankind’s carelessness the cause of the costly disruption of air travel, were there simply too many cows in Texas this year or did too many people forget to ride their bicycles to work?

Or perhaps it could have been the delay of getting the cap and trade bill passed and implemented.

Did the greedy Americans simply use too much electricity necessitating the burning of too much fossil fuel to produce the power to enable their decadence? Has global warming raised its ugly head again?

Was it an act of the indifference and apathy of mankind?

No, Al. It was an act of God.

As we all know the eruption of a volcano in Iceland is the cause of the problem as the prevailing westerly winds have blown the volcano’s emissions across the North Atlantic making it impossible for airplanes to fly without a danger of the engines ingesting it.

The emissions contain particles of glass that were melted by the heat of the volcano, hurled thousands of feet into the air by its force and frozen by the cold temperatures of the atmosphere.

If it were sucked into the engines of jet planes, it would again be melted and wreak havoc, at worst causing an immediate crash or at the least severe damage to the engine.

This volcano is under the command and control of the God who created it, only He knows when it’s going to erupt and no amount of legislation, no purchasing of carbon credits and no degree of scare tactics by a Nobel Peace Prize winner is going to alter that fact.

I believe in practicing conservation, I believe in clean water and clean air and I believe there are some things mankind can do to make the earth a cleaner place, but for anybody to think that man can control the temperature of a planet, to me is total arrogance.

The bad news is that there is another volcano in Iceland that usually goes off when the currently active one does and its emissions could go on for a year or so.

And no power on earth can stop it, but there is one in heaven that can.

We need, more than ever, to realize man’s helplessness and God’s might.

Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s and unto God what is God’s.

What do you think?

Pray for our troops, and for our country.

God Bless America
