NASA chief says he changed mind about climate change because he 'read a lot’

NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine says he changed his mind on the existence of man-made climate change because he “read a lot.”

“I heard a lot of experts, and I read a lot,” Bridenstine told the Washington Post on Tuesday. “I came to the conclusion myself that carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that we've put a lot of it into the atmosphere and therefore we have contributed to the global warming that we've seen. And we've done it in really significant ways.”

The former congressman from Oklahoma had long denied the scientific consensus on climate change and said in a 2013 speech on the House floor that "global temperatures stopped rising 10 years ago."

In May, Bridenstine first announced publicly that he now believes human activity is the main cause of climate change.

[ ...because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved...God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie.

2 Thessalonians 2:10-11.

Speaks of “that day” (vs.3). We are in the last days and rapidly approaching “that day”. ]

Yes. I’ve been saying for years, especially since the Unholy Advent of the Kenyan Usurper that some version of the Strong Delusion has already started.

This is only reinforced every time I see some liberal posting online. They absolutely reject truth, Scripture, facts, you name it. A few have walked away from them. But the overwhelming majority believe and repeat the lies. Not surprising, every single “article” from the liberal media is absolutely truth to them.

Among their posts: “God isn’t real”, “Jesus was a myth”, “the Bible is fiction” and of course, the fun one is “Bible Prophecy isn’t going to happen”.

I expect this antichrist behavior will only get worse the closer we get to the Tribulation. IF Ezekiel 38 happens beforehand, perhaps a few will wake up.

[, I heard people say he was like a breath of fresh air, or that he filled them with “hope”, but could not explain why. ]

Yes. It was not based on fact or reality but rather fiction. Truth is, W made such a mess of things he gave us Obama. And they seem to be good pals these days. Hrrrmpfff (yes this guy gave an “Hrrrmpfff”).

It's not natural. It's not normal. It's a mass delusion of the left from which very few have recovered. For most, the insanity has only deepened.

[ [C]oncerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. 2 For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. 3 For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. 4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. 5 You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. 6 Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.

1 Thessalonians 5:1-6. ]

Correct and Amen.

If CO2 is such a great heat retaining gas, why don’t we insulate our homes with it? Because it is NOT a heat retaining gas. Water vapor retains heat, but CO2 is only about 5.5ppm and is practically insignificant as a percentage of our atmospheric mixture of gases.

Historically speaking, CO2 levels have lagged temperature increases by decades.

Ironic that he is gulping the Kool-Aid now when many others are looking at the data and spitting it out. Gotta be money involved.

And each time W betrayed his voter base, they had to put up with it because the only alternative was Gore or Kerry. Liberals hated him for no other reason but there was an (R) next to his name. He did far more for them than us, however.

Doesn’t even matter. Not the government’s business.

Matthew 24:36
King James Bible
But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

Interesting comment. This pretty much blows the idea of a “ Trinity” out of the water, in that this explicitly states that God is not Jesus, nor the Holy Spirit. They are separate entities.

In fact, there is good evidence that the CO2 levels follow temperature increases, not the other way around. And there’s the fact that CO2 levels have been much higher in the past than now. But those facts are as cold as Mary Mahoney’s corpse to the MSM.

I know. I have watched in amazement the rapid decline of the America we once knew.

That is why I support this President. I believe (just my $0.02) this is the last pro-American President (barring VP Pence in 2024) that America will ever have.

Perhaps I’m wrong. For our sake I hope I am.

I never ever thought reading could actually make one more idiotic but this rings true. He sounds like a simpleton.

Separate yet equal. Not for us to know at this time how the Holy Trinity works.

People see it in different ways.

Matthew 28:19 is often used as the basis for the Trinity. (just for the thread)

Matthew 28:19 KJV

“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:”

I agree with that in general. Our Earthly, mortal existence cannot fully grasp this.

I don't know how many more presidential terms I'll be around to see, but I'm reminded of this quote:

See that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass

When Jesus says he is one with the Father, and one with the Holy Ghost, me means spiritually. But they are separate things, which is why they have separate names. Just like I can agree with someone but not physically be that person. My interpretation.

Bullsh*t. Someone has "convinced" him that it is in his best interest to play along with this big con job.
