FEDERAL WAY, Wash., Jan. 24 -- Frosty E. Hardiman is neither impressed nor surprised that "An Inconvenient Truth," the global-warming movie narrated by former vice president Al Gore, received an Oscar nomination this week for best documentary.
"Liberal left is all over Hollywood," he grumbled a few hours after the nomination was announced.
Hardiman, a parent of seven here in the southern suburbs of Seattle, has himself roiled the global-warming waters. It happened early this month when he learned that one of his daughters would be watching "An Inconvenient Truth" in her seventh-grade science class.
"No you will not teach or show that propagandist Al Gore video to my child, blaming our nation -- the greatest nation ever to exist on this planet -- for global warming," Hardiman wrote in an e-mail to the Federal Way School Board. The 43-year-old computer consultant is an evangelical Christian who says he believes that a warming planet is "one of the signs" of Jesus Christ's imminent return for Judgment Day.
His angry e-mail (along with complaints from a few other parents) stopped the film from being shown to Hardiman's daughter.
The teacher in that science class, Kay Walls, says that after Hardiman's e-mail she was told by her principal that she would receive a disciplinary letter for not following school board rules that require her to seek written permission to present "controversial" materials in class.
The e-mail also pressured the school board to impose a ban on screenings of the film for the district's 22,500 students.

I must have missed that passage in the NT.
Thing will get plenty warm for a lot of folks AFTER Jesus returns.
Second chapter of Jude?
Umm, where??
Jesus hates the cold weather.
Still, it's no more wacky than what the environMENTALists believe about global warming.
I do find it somewhat funny that this guys name is "Frosty" and he's bitching about global warming.
With those sandals and robe, it has to be warm outside for him.

The guy's name is Frosty, and he's going after AlBore's Global Warming movie?
Sweet.
The similarities between religious apocalyptikooks and environmental nutcases are striking in many areas.
I managed to get my kids school to not show Inconvenient truth and Supersize Me. Pissed off some liberals, but I told them I (we) had a team of attorneys ready to pounce if they spread their liberal proaganda crap based on junk science, at best. It was really easy, actually.
Screaming something is against your religeon is what works in this country, so if that is what he had to say to keep them from showing that propaganda, then good.
Oops. Maybe it was III Corinthians.
Maybe his wife's a Hottie?
"And He spake, 'I shall send forth my son again preceded by increasing levels of carbon dioxide in thine atmosphere disguised as coal plant emissions.'"
What is Al Gore's new movie, An Inconvenient Truth, all about?
Global Warming? The Environment? Or something much more BORING?
See Al Gore's Penguin Army learn how crazy this flick really is...
There are plenty of scientific reasons why the Algore movie is BS.
Why did they have to pick this one kookball to quote?
I can tell you.
It's to delegitimize any opposition to the stupid movie.
Apparently the reporter and this teacher are unable to use wikipedia. List of scientists opposing global warming consensus
Interesting question; will the new Earth have ice on it? Did the pre-fall Paradise Earth have it?
