Weather has been rather crazy lately. I guess not climate change, but something is up.

Every once and a while a very public preacher will claim that a particular weather calamity was punishment for the wickedness of those suffering the calamity, e.g. John Hagee blaming Katrina on a gay pride parade in New Orleans.

The more moderate position is an answer to the Problem of Evil, i.e. how can an all-powerful, all-knowing, all-loving God cause natural evil to befall His people. This position is that an overall rise in sin in the world will lead to more natural calamities in general. So it's wrong to point the blame directly at the victims of a particular calamity, but if the world's people are being more sinful in general, then expect more calamities.

The other possibility is that these calamities could have been less calamitous but for increasing incompetence, e.g. more earthquake deaths from poorly built buildings, more flood victims from poorly maintained levees, etc.

As the American Empire slides into debauchery and decay it makes sense that greed, corruption, incompetence, nepotism, etc. will lead to our decaying infrastructure and bad policy decisions leading to greater suffering from similar natural events in the past.

Here in California we have bad forest management and insufficient water storage to blame for increased destruction from wildfires.

“But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.”
— II Peter 3:10, NASB

That’s the end state, climate-wise.

So, perhaps there’s a bit of “climate change” here and there, but it’s NOTHING like what’s ultimately going to happen, and it is ABSOLUTELY NOT your SUV that’s responsible for ANY of it.

Any local news is now immediate national news, particularly if the news is sensational. It seems worse now than it used to because we hear more horror stories that once did, and now should, remain local.

There is man made climate change.

But it has zero to-do with carbon, cars , industry, power generation, or cow farts .

Droughts and floods are created.

Multiple layers of bait and switch.
