John Earl Fetzer, The Fetzer Institute, Benjamin Creme, the 1980s and NOW

Some of you blogspot readers and participants have thought the activities of the richly endowed, financed and highly networked activities of the Fetzer Foundation are now irrelevant.  That is hardly the case.  Those who received the disinformation of some Evangelical circles such as Walter Martin and Tal Brooke believe that few of importance had real plans during the 1980s and have them for now to take out the Christian world.  Again, clearly not true.  There is now a highly public campaign of which the Fetzer Institute is now a major player to make the very ugliest plans of "The Christ is Now Here" proponents of the 1980s happen now.  They are so very confident that they will now succeed whereas in May 1982 they had a major disappointment because now, "a majority of people are SBNR -- 'spiritual but not religious.'"

The Fetzer Institute and its components, including the John B. Fetzer Memorial Trust Fund, have freely published and are extolling as good and necessary just about everything of which I warned starting in 1981, Benjamin Creme and all.  For example, here is one they now have on their "Spiritual Library" in the form of an interview by Fetzer Institute Executive, Bruce Fetzer, a former Baptist Christian from Raleigh, North Carolina, who is the nephew of founder John Earl Fetzer (1901-1991).  For the record, John Earl Fetzer, a former Seventh Day Adventist, was the person in charge of censorship for World War II and post events surrounding Nazism -- probably the one who kept news of Hitler's occultism so long bottled up; the enormously wealthy owner of many radio, tv, and cable stations.  He left his entire huge fortune and the income it would engender from investments to making his dream of the New Age, complete with a new world financial system, a new world religion, and a new "Christ" who admittedly was not Jesus to happen as quickly as possible.

Even this past Sunday, the CBS 60 Minute program had a segment on one of these "feel good" everybody love everybody across political lines.  It had a look and a feel to it, encouraging "facilitation," and I promptly googled it along with "Fetzer Institute" and bingo -- it was a Fetzer Institute funded program.  It is in the workshops, the 'facilitation,' the 'meditations', where people go into their altered states that cause the New Age desired 'paradigm shifts' that cause the shifts in world view that they hope will lead to the acceptance of a "new gospel" that very clearly isn't.   What is really being done with 'facilitation' is "initiation" -- hoped for initiation into their 'occult mysteries' that could well cost participants their very souls, as it most likely cost John Earl Fetzer his own soul.

Here is what I just found in the Fetzer archives this morning (copyrighted 2018 material) vis a vis even the extremes of Benjamin Creme and 'The Reappearance of the Christ" in statements by Bruce Fetzer himself:

The other thing I think needs to be elaborated on is that, in the history, at least in the archives as well as in some of the oral histories, there’s a fair amount of discounting of the 80’s and that John was trying to build in terms of creating a direct relationship between the upper and the lower. By that I mean the hierarchy and the physical, the inner life and the outer life. Here is a book, I brought a couple of selections here. Not all of the library that John gave me to read, but this is one of the books from Benjamin Creme called The Reappearance of the Christ and the Masters of Wisdom. It’s an interesting book because it’s one that John read as well. What it does is describe the relationship between the Masters and the hierarchy and the Christ Consciousness, and its application in the physical realm. The manifestation in this physical presence. It’s important as an independent reference, because the channelings with Jim Gordon talk very directly about the White Brotherhood, which is a council of Masters working with the Institute in the early days. John very much believed that there was a higher order to the universe that was giving direction to him to inspire the Institute, to carry on this inspiration in dynamic ways in the future, without creating a religion, by the way.''




This interview was not ancient history.  It was recorded by Bruce  Fetzer on July 6, 2011 and considered signficant enough to the Institute's aggressive work to be there now.

Reading and listening (a handy feature of Microsoft's EDGE Browser to read documents out loud) to other Fetzer library on live archived and searchable interviews,  I learn that on March 10, 1982 John Earl Fetzer was eagerly awaiting the 'cleansing action' where many of us would 'disappear' or be sent to 'another dimension'.  On April 25, 1982, his channeler, Jim Gordon, sent Fetzer a letter of congratulations -- the very day the world wide ads ran saying 'the Christ is now here.'  May 20, 1982 was their day of great disappointment, but still their work to implement this anti-God vision continues with force as they strive to honor John Earl Fetzer's vision.  I have learned that Michigan judges have been placed in Fetzer funded 'facilitation operations' and I'm sure it is a very small step towards forcing all us Michigan lawyers into same as part of "Continuing Legal Education."

So much is happening on so many fronts, but the Fetzer operation is a very important front.

Stay tuned!

RayB lies again (at 336 pm) by deliberately failing to mention the New York Times was comparing Vaccinated persons with "PREVIOUSLY infected with Covid Unvaccinated persons".

Both groups...

The "vaccinated" and "Unvaccinated but with prior infections" had very few hospitalizations and deaths.

The problem has always been, largely, the UNVACCINATED without any prior covid infection.


That's a deliberate oversight. A lie, attempting to make it sound like the data and/or New York Times supports going/being unvaccinated. RayB knows that is untrue and even the citizenfreepress article he failed to link to said such. He lied more than even the liar at citizenfreepress. That's saying something.

“Effectiveness of Covid-19 Vaccines over a 9-Month Period in North Carolina“

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2117128

Excerpt:
“…..
RESULTS: For the two-dose regimens of messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines BNT162b2 (30 μg per dose) and mRNA-1273 (100 μg per dose), vaccine effectiveness against Covid-19 was 94.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 94.1 to 94.9) and 95.9% (95% CI, 95.5 to 96.2), respectively, at 2 months after the first dose and decreased to 66.6% (95% CI, 65.2 to 67.8) and 80.3% (95% CI, 79.3 to 81.2), respectively, at 7 months. Among early recipients of BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273, effectiveness decreased by approximately 15 and 10 percentage points, respectively, from mid-June to mid-July, when the delta variant became dominant. For the one-dose regimen of Ad26.COV2.S (5×1010 viral particles), effectiveness against Covid-19 was 74.8% (95% CI, 72.5 to 76.9) at 1 month and decreased to 59.4% (95% CI, 57.2 to 61.5) at 5 months. All three vaccines maintained better effectiveness in preventing hospitalization and death than in preventing infection over time, although the two mRNA vaccines provided higher levels of protection than Ad26.COV2.S.

CONCLUSIONS:All three Covid-19 vaccines had durable effectiveness in reducing the risks of hospitalization and death. Waning protection against infection over time was due to both declining immunity and the emergence of the delta variant.

“Booster Shots 90% Effective at Preventing Omicron Hospitalizations: CDC Data“

https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/covid-19-vaccine/news/20220124/booster-shots-effective-preventing-omicron-hospitalizations-cdc

Excerpt:

“ Booster shots of the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines appear to be highly effective at preventing hospitalizations due to the Omicron variant, according to three new CDC studies published on Friday.

The extra doses were 90% effective at keeping people out of the hospital after infection and 82% effective at preventing emergency department and urgent care visits”

In one study, researchers analyzed hospitalizations and visits to emergency departments and urgent care clinics in 10 states between the end of August 2021 and beginning of January 2022. Vaccine effectiveness against hospitalization with Omicron fell to 57% for those who had received their second dose more than 6 months earlier. A booster shot restored protection to 90%.

RayB,

You do realize those VAERS numbers, we’ll the full analysis of those numbers, actually support vaccine effectiveness?

Excluding “foreign reports” to VAERS, only 740,000 adverse events, including 10,316 deaths and 67,496 serious injuries, were reported in the U.S. between Dec. 14, 2020, and Jan. 21, 2022.

Considering approx 4 million Americans total would be anticipated, on average, to die over this 13 months, only 10,316 deaths even being remotely associated with getting the covid vaccine is wildly indicative that the vaccines aren’t killing many people at all. Especially in comparison to the 500,000 to 600,000 documented covid deaths that were largely unvaccinated nor the 400,000 to 800,000 others that would have died (especially when the delta variant spread) had a large chunk of the adult us population been vaccinated.

No signals detected is a tribute to vaccine effectiveness for those that truly understand how VAERS works.

Craig,

You do realize that was a lower PA court deciding that case along partisan lines which the PA Supreme Court is highly likely to overturn?

PA Supreme Court is 5-2 democrat leaning so it’s doubtful they’ll be as enthusiastic to disenfranchise PA citizens.

Further, the supposedly unconstitutional absentee voting law was promulgated by a Republican controlled state legislature.

Also, even if the decision held, i think it only means the law would be unconstitutional thereafter. It wouldn’t make any past fully certified votes unconstitutional.

Keep reaching.

Excerpt:

"A leading British anti-vaxxer has admitted COVID is real after being taken to an intensive care unit (ICU) with the virus.

Funeral director John O'Looney, 53, had claimed coronavirus was “just a common cold” and refused to be vaccinated.

He was due to appear at the 'Freedom Rally' event in Milton Keynes last Wednesday, alongside fellow anti-vaxxer Piers Corbyn, where protesters stormed a pantomime and NHS test site.

But O'Looney could not attend after being struck down with COVID last month and hospitalised.

In a written statement to his followers, shared last Friday, he admitted the virus was “an enemy to face”.

He wrote: "I was initially sceptical about COVID but I can confirm its validity and it is very nasty.”"

Insurrectionists opened the magnetic doors from the inside. Fire Codes mandate a passive way to open doors in the event of fire so persons can get out. The Capitol was breached around 2:11pm but those doors weren't opened until around 2:39pm, plenty of time for Oathkeepers to coordinate an opening of the East Rotunda Columbus doors either directly or by pulling a fire alarm.


I like how gateway pundit refers to the terrorist Oathkeeper MAGA organization as non-partisan. Hilarious.

Craig,

Interesting that even you can't articulate the conspiracy theory you seem to think occurred in Pennsylvania.

The bill was actually passed and signed into law in Oct 2019, before the pandemic (though there were some changes made by amendment in 2020). Apparently, the bill was the bi-partisan culmination of years of work to update PA's 80 year old election laws.

With a Republican legislature and a Democrat governor protecting the people, it seems some legislative compromises were made. I read some suburban republicans were willing to compromise on absentee ballots largely hoping to eliminate straight-ticket voting fearing the upcoming avalanche of voting against Trump sweeping them out of office (like many of their friends at mid-terms). That compromise didn't help Trump as absentee voting expanded under covid, but it looks now to have been a lot more self-serving than a conspiracy by Republicans to shed Trump. They just didn't want to get caught up in his defeat and hoped split ticket voting would save them.

Anyway...here's the story from Oct 2019. See if maybe you can identify specifically who conspired to rid our country of its most corrupt heretical president ever.

"7 Big Changes To Voting In PA Just Signed Into Law:
Several changes coming to how we vote in PA after Gov. Wolf signed the "most significant" reforms to the state election law in 80 years."


October 31, 2019

https://patch.com/pennsylvania/newtown-pa/7-big-changes-voting-pa-just-signed-law

Further... Surely you aren't accusing PA House Speaker Bryan Cutler (quoted in the above article celebrating the bipartisan voting act) and his republican friends of a conspiracy. He's one of Trump's guys in PA.

"Trump Thanks Cutler for Post-Election Maneuvering"

https://www.politicspa.com/trump-thanks-cutler-for-post-election-maneuvering/96842/

Excerpt: "On Friday, Cutler and 60 plus other Republican state legislators sent a joint letter to the state’s congressional delegation urging them to object to the state’s electoral votes going to Joe Biden.

Cutler’s spokesperson, Michael Straub, told the Washington Post that the letter to the congressional delegation was planned prior to the calls that Trump made to Cutler. Straub added that although Trump wanted to know what the state legislature could do to overturn Biden’s victory in the state, Cutler explained that the state legislature had no power to do so and the allegations of fraud would have to be proved in court.

Straub also said that Trump did not “pressure” Cutler during the calls, although he acknowledged that his office has faced a flurry of calls over the past week.

Although Straub’s comment to the Washington Post said that Cutler and the PA legislature can not overturn the outcome in the state, the intentions of the letter, if successful, signed by Cutler and the 60 plus Republicans is to nullify Biden’s victory in the state."

“The U.S. COVID-19 Vaccination Program at One Year: How Many Deaths and Hospitalizations Were Averted?“

December 14, 2021

https://www.commonwealthfund.org/publications/issue-briefs/2021/dec/us-covid-19-vaccination-program-one-year-how-many-deaths-and

Excerpt:

“The U.S. COVID-19 vaccination program has prevented an estimated 1.1 million deaths and 10.3 million hospitalizations. The vaccine rollout helped the U.S. dodge a massive wave of COVID-19 deaths that would have started as the Delta variant took hold — demonstrating the extraordinary effectiveness of vaccines”

Highlights of the study:

1. In the absence of a vaccination program, there would have been approximately 1.1 million additional COVID-19 deaths and more than 10.3 million additional COVID-19 hospitalizations in the U.S. by November 2021.

2. Without the U.S. vaccination program, COVID-19 deaths would have been approximately 3.2 times higher and COVID-19 hospitalizations approximately 4.9 times higher than the actual toll during 2021.

3. If no one had been vaccinated, daily deaths from COVID-19 could have jumped to as high as 21,000 per day — nearly 5.2 times the level of the record peak of more than 4,000 deaths per day recorded in January 2021.“

Yes, and I'd also posted Dr. Campbell's analysis of the paper Farage refers to:



Freedom of information revelation

Dr. John Campbell

Anonymous said...

Lol.

Dr Campbell might be a good balanced resource about a lot of things but understanding the process of recording deaths apparently isn’t one of them.

Covid mortality results from a plethora of secondary causes. Multiple organ failure, pneumonia, cardiac arrest are examples of items that can generally be included on death certificates of those dying of covid. My cousin was 6’ 2” and provably weighed 225. At his age maybe a little overweight but no obese. Still his death certificate listed hypertension as a secondary cause of death despite not previously having high blood pressure or any heart issue prior to contracting covid.

Thus—a misinterpretation of cause of death listing on death certificates isn’t proof of anything.

You also can’t dismiss an entire study by simply calling it “propaganda”.

Clearly if it weren’t for vaccinations, the entire country would have endured a spike like Florida and Texas come fall/winter… and even in those states cases,hospitalizations and deaths were significant mitigated by the persons there that got vaccinated. Notice also that 1 million US lives saved by vaccines only covers thru November 30th. We’d be in real bad shape and nobody would be claiming covid was “overhyped” if it weren’t for vaccines saving and protecting u and your families butts. In other words, the vaccinated saved you. You and your family & friends benefited from some herd immunity protection provided by your unselfish & loving neighbors.

Be grateful.

I looked it up. Here’s an explanation:



https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7014e2.htm

Summary
What is already known about this topic? During 2020, approximately 375,000 U.S. deaths were attributed to COVID-19.

What is added by this report?
Among 378,048 death certificates from 2020 listing COVID-19, 5.5% listed COVID-19 without codes for any other conditions. Among 357,133 death certificates with at least one other condition, 97% had a co-occurring diagnosis of a plausible chain-of-event condition (e.g., pneumonia or respiratory failure), or a significant contributing condition (e.g., hypertension or diabetes), or both.

What are the implications for public health practice?

These findings support the accuracy of COVID-19 mortality surveillance in the United States using official death certificates. High-quality documentation of death certificate diagnoses is essential for an authoritative public record.


….more from CDC…

Overall, 97.3% of 357,133 death certificates with at least one other diagnosis (91.9% of all 378,048 death certificates) were noted to have a co-occurring diagnosis that was a plausible chain-of-event condition (e.g., pneumonia, respiratory failure, adult respiratory distress syndrome, cardiac arrest, or sepsis), or significant contributing condition (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, dementia, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) (5), or both. The most frequent chain-of-event ICD-10 diagnosis codes on 330,198 death certificates that listed COVID-19 on Part I of the death certificate were J18.9 (pneumonia) (45%) and J96.0 (acute respiratory failure) (20%) (Table 2); the most frequent significant contributing condition ICD-10 codes were I10 (essential hypertension) (18%) and E14.9 (diabetes mellitus) (10%). Nearly 75% of all death certificates had a chain-of-event condition, alone or in combination with a significant contributing condition; this finding was noted for adults aged 18–84 years, males and females, persons of all races and ethnicities, those who died in inpatient and outpatient or emergency department settings, and those whose manner of death was listed as natural (Table 1).

Nearly 18% of death certificates had a co-occurring significant contributing condition only (Table 1). This finding was more frequent for death certificates indicating that the death occurred in the decedent’s home (38.3%), a nursing home or long-term care facility (38.5%), or hospice facility (23.2%). A small proportion (9,638; 2.5%) of death certificates had co-occurring diagnosis codes that could not be plausibly categorized as either a chain-of-event or significant contributing condition.

Craig said...

X,

Campbell only spoke to the data of those 17,000 with no comorbidities. He didn't go beyond that, because no further data was supplied.

All the deaths must be scrutinized for exactly what kind of 'covid-care' they received. Ventilators are NOT the right solution, e.g. Moreover--and this is very important--as with most anything, early intervention is key. Frankly, there are far too many variables to arrive at any sort of even close-to-the-ballpark conclusions on either side.

And, one must also factor in the deaths from lack of adequate care during lock-downs, etc.

Craig said...

And Dr. Campbell posted this followup:

John gets 'fact checked' by BBC

Anonymous said...

Craig,

Dr. Campbell got fact-checked for "suggesting" there were only 17,000 covid only deaths in England because people like you and others used his video to actually suggest such. He really didn't SAY that in his initial video as he clarified in his rebuttal. He just went over the data.

Craig -- when you first shared Dr. Campbell's link and analysis of that data you said:

Craig said: "Scant few died of CV19: Freedom of information revelation" (LINK TO YOUTUBE CAMPBELL VIDEO)

You know now that was misleading in itself, right? Sure you linked the video where anyone could have double-checked your brief summary, but your actual summary was what you hoped the video suggested, versus what Dr. Campbell actually meant and said, right?

Even that 17,000 number was between just the covid only deaths recorded between October and December, 2021. That's still too many unvaccinated people (I infer that based upon knowledge/data/experience that most all the vaccinated people that have died in small numbers of serious breakthrough cases were patients who were enduring multiple co-morbid conditions. I presume, logically, they would be unlikely to be in the only-covid death group)

Am I mistaken? I don't want to speak for you or what you were trying to imply.

Uh, yeah. That was the point. Exactly the point. Are you daft?

But to you it has to be a covid plus 100 extra's and etc's because covid couldn't punch out enough deaths on it's own right???

Pad it with lots of other things because covid wasn't scary enough on it's own.

The scary part is how crazy with fear it has made people (like "better than average" you) who want the government tit because they can't live -- can't think!! -- without Big Gov. Ruining our freedoms and health and every other benefit God gave us..but that was going that way anyway, you just help accelerate it--because you are drunk on the koolaid. Whatever. I'm not putting my trust in anything of this world anyway.

But it is weird that you need deaths to mount (and count) and keep them coming..that's what out of control governments need to do to treat people as cattle..scare people into their plans..and you claim you are a Christian?

You are a freak to need people to die your way.
You must have severe control issues.

Death is hard, death is sad, but you cheapen it with your crazed obsession with the "numbers" but death is part of life. There have always been worse ways to go than this flu virus. That somehow doesn't register with you though.
10 out of 10 die of something..

"The Virus Stops With Every Vaccinated Person" - Eight Quotes From The 'Experts' That Aged Horribly

https://thebluestateconservative.com/2022/01/21/eight-quotes-from-the-experts-that-aged-horribly/

Joe Biden: “You’re Not Going To Get COVID If You Have These Vaccinations.”

Tony Fauci: “You Become A Dead End To The Virus.”

Rochelle Walensky: “Vaccinated People Do Not Carry The Virus — They Don’t Get Sick.”

Alberta Bourla: “Our COVID-19 vaccine was 100% effective in preventing #COVID19 cases in South Africa. 100%!”

Bill Gates: “A key goal [of the vaccination program] is to stop transmission.”

Rachel Maddow: “Now we know that the virus stops with every vaccinated person.”

Francis Collins: "'Reason to be pretty optimistic’ that the available COVID-19 vaccines will be effective against the new Omicron variant of the virus; All of the other variants that have emerged during this COVID-19 pandemic have shown response to the vaccine, including Delta"

Brian Stelter: “The newspaper [USA Today] describes ‘America’s fourth Covid-19 surge,’ noting this ‘didn’t have to happen,’ since vaccinations are so widely available. The headlines are followed by a call to action: ‘Let’s end it now.’”

Who are unvaccinated and some of them got Covid and helped build the herd immunity by natural means.
The vaccines are making people susceptible to the virus. I know of several in my circle of friends that got Covid after vaccination.

Craig,

I didn't put words in your mouth. I QUOTED you indicating 'scant few had died of covid" when that is not the truth nor is it what Dr. Campbell reported.

I do see how the data works out now. It was over 1 3/4 years. Still doesn't really tell you much. Over 150,000 brits died and we are over 900,000 in the US. Hardly "scant" numbers.


btw --- In my opinion, Tony Heller is a big oil shill and unqualified liar who knows little about climatology. We've discussed his b.s. previously and even though I'm not really vested in the subject, I can discern a self-interested, self-promoting liar, corporate shill a mile away.

10:40 pm --

Those selfish neighbors that got covid and were fortunate enough to survive also were the stronger and more contagious link that passed/spread covid along to others -- some who died and some who were dumb lucky and ended up providing herd immunity.

The study I posted earlier was a good indication of what relying solely on herd immunity via "let the virus spread without any vaccinations" would have looked like. Ten million dead.

You guys have no idea what happens when you reach a tipping point in any community. We were close to that in many communities several times throughout this pandemic. For profit healthcare doesn't make money maintaining empty beds so the capacity is built in to handle just about as much as any community typically produces in health care needs. Covid threw that out of balance and delta would have overwhelmed that this fall and winter were it not for vaccines. There would have been more lockdowns. People being treated in their cars in hospital parking lots. The death rates would soar due to lack of available care.

I'm sorry vaccine effectiveness actually blinds you to what would have happened. We've been relatively lucky. Thanks to the vaccines and the vaccinated.

wings of the lion clipped?
These verses show these are not ancient kingdoms, interpreters prophecy experts have it all wrong. vs. 12 says that after the fourth kingdom is destroyed the other three are allowed to continue for a while, so they are contemporaneous to the fourth beast.

LXX says "lioness" and the lioness is more of a hunter than the lion. Wings - air and near space will be driven out of the land yet survive, so "the land" means the Middle East in general and Israel in particular, the lioness originates from elsewhere goes back there. And later is conquered there. Sounds like those satellites get shot down eventually. But not yet? see news link below.

NOTE ABOUT SPIRITUAL DEATH IN GENESIS CHAPTER THREE - yes there was spiritual death but also physical. no one made it to 1,000 years or "a day" old. Also when an inexorable process has begun,it can be counted as if done already, like in movies "you are a dead man" is said to one living who the speaker plans to kill. It is BOTH spiritual and physical death. DO NOT BE GNOSTIC, denying the importance of the physical.

Good news: maybe we won't have war this time after all. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10455045/Putin-agrees-hold-talks-Germany-France-Ukraine-NATO-squabbles.html

Basically they are cutting separate peace deals with Putin, Germany relies on Russia for its natural gas supplies and war would likely destroy the pipelines, and only one veto in NATO will prevent action. Dementia Joe might try to go it alone, but has no troops there to speak of, and these would be useless without command and control grid, i.e., those satellites....plus our GPS.

Antarctic cores show a warming cycle precedes a cool down cycle, creationists and evolutionists generally agree on what happened, but not why or when or how.

Craig said...

From the Ice Age video above:

@ 7:54: “Since concern for our weather has increased, the park wardens now take daily records of temperatures, wind, and solar radiation. Weather data from stations all over the arctic is collected and fed into central computers. Balloons are launched every day to monitor the winds and temperatures at high altitudes. The data shows that average temperatures in the arctic have fallen dramatically over the last 30 years. In most locations, the drop has been about 2 degrees centigrade. At that rate the descent to ice age temperatures could take less than 200 years.

“It is not only the lonely arctic that has cooled. The whole northern hemisphere is growing steadily colder. In Greenland, the snows of centuries have piled up on the largest ice cap in the northern hemisphere.”

---

So, since ca. 1948 “average temperatures in the arctic have fallen dramatically”. How does that square with the “Climate Change” narrative of catastrophic level warmings since carbon emissions have been increasing?

---

According to the EPA:

Climate Change Indicators: Greenhouse Gases

Greenhouse gases from human activities are the most significant driver of observed climate change since the mid-20th century.* The indicators in this chapter characterize emissions of the major greenhouse gases resulting from human activities, the concentrations of these gases in the atmosphere, and how emissions and concentrations have changed over time. When comparing emissions of different gases, these indicators use a concept called “global warming potential” to convert amounts of other gases into carbon dioxide equivalents.

Now, how do we reconcile all that?

Natural immunity comes a natural way, not artificially. The vaccine is a sorry counterfeit to what God did. I have God given natural immunity and I am part of helping the herd immunity that we need right now. God has used science to help man over the course of the ages, but this particularly engineered monstrosity is deliberately godless on another level in it's creation and implementation, and you applaud it. You selfishly believe in your gods who brought all this trouble upon us. Shame is on your face and you are too ignorant, or something worse, to know it.

Come to think of it...you are artificial yourself, for supposing man has the answers to what ails man to shove God aside the way you do. Your supersized "government"/"science"/ "justice" ideas are based out of your artificial understanding of God and the world, and us, whom He made. You are a product of this world system and know nothing of God except your "version" of Him. Thou shalt not make any graven (artificial) images is the 2nd commandment and your many idols are your base for what you wrongly think and how badly you act.
No thanks, you can keep your man glorification garbage to yourself.

In both cases, this was EXTREMELY shocking for me because both were very fit individuals aged only 51 & 56. As a side job, the 56 year old was a 'personal fitness trainer' who also worked out 5 to 6 days per week. BOTH were required, by their employers, to take the (EXPERIMENTAL) 'vaccines.' Were their 'heart failures' caused by the 'vaccines' which led to their deaths, or, was this all just another coincidence? Personally, I strongly suspect the former.

As reported by the Jerusalem Post:

"Even though Israel’s population is heavily vaccinated and boostered, the country is posting unprecedented case numbers. On January 25, Israel reported over 101,905 cases which is more than 10 times its pre-vaccination high. In other words, now that the Israeli people have been mass injected with the mRNA vaccines, their cases have gone up by more than 1000 percent."

Pierre Kory doesn’t actually have any real data supporting his claims of “140% rise in excess deaths in 2021 being related to the vaccine” other than speculation easily refuted by reviewing excess deaths worldwide, especially in countries with very few covid deaths like Australia, where a huge percentage of the population was vaccinated and the supposedly deadly vaccine didn’t spike the “all deaths” there. Review worldwide excess death tables yourself and compare it to vaccine rates. The biggest spikes have and are occurring in the least vaccinated ones. Thus It is covid…stupid. The delta variant was more spreadable and deadly is the main reason 2021 was more deadly.

Plus, Israel keeps getting rolled out as an example but it’s still the unvaccinated being hospitalized & dying there at significantly higher rates & overall their covid deaths rate remains remarkably low.


COVID Vaccine Has Saved 20,000 Israeli Lives: Public Health Experts Say
‘Without vaccines, instead of 8,500 people we’d have close to 30,000 people dying – and that would be a disaster,’ says Prof. Nadav Davidovitch of Ben-Gurion University


Jan 28, 2022

https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/covid-vaccine-has-saved-20-000-israeli-lives-public-health-experts-say-1.10567673

Excerpt:

“ Israel’s COVID-19 vaccination drive has been an impressive success, saving an estimated 20,000 lives during the two-year pandemic, a top Israeli public health expert told Haaretz on Tuesday. Prof. Nadav Davidovitch, director of the School of Public Health at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, said the medical community was surprised by the rapid spread and mutation of the coronavirus in 2020. But he believes that, despite possible surprises, Israel may have turned a corner in fighting the pandemic.

“We estimate that the vaccines saved 20,000 people from dying in Israel. Without vaccines, instead of 8,500 people we’d have close to 30,000 people dying – and that would be a disaster,” he said.

“We’re learning all the time about this virus,” he added. “There were several things that weren’t clear. One was its rate of mutation. This is something that we knew, of course: Viruses are mutating. It happens all the time, but the pace of development … was actually more than I expected.”

According to Itamar Grotto, a former deputy director general of the Health Ministry, between December 2020 – when the vaccination program began – and November 2021, Israel ranked third in the number of deaths avoided, buoyed by the vaccinations. He said 15,662 deaths were avoided, while during this period 3,972 people over age 60 died of COVID in Israel.

Grotto added that between January 1, 2021 and January 19, 2022, 4,989 people died of COVID in Israel, but without vaccines 24,661 people would have died – thus the vaccine prevented 19,672 deaths during that time.

The 6 percent of unvaccinated Israelis age 60 and over accounted for 32 percent of serious cases and 35 percent of COVID deaths over the past month.

Per capita, for every serious case of a vaccinated person age 60 or over, there are eight serious cases of unvaccinated patients. And for every death of a vaccinated person, there are eight deaths of unvaccinated people.”

My guess is if I review the data some other factors will be apparent. Most of it is just common sense. When you hear purveyors of misinformation waxing on poetically devoid of real evidence other than some cherry picked number which suggests so far our conclusion (while not really proving anything at all) just stop yourself and think.

Common sense:

1. In 2020 us deaths didn’t really start happening until April whereas Jan 2021 deaths were huge and not yet reduced by vaccinations

2. Since June 2021, the rates of covid deaths were substantially higher in the least vaccinated (mostly red) states. These are undeniably numbers. https://dangoodspeed.com/covid/total-deaths-since-june-2021

3. The reason for more life insurance claims is due to a much higher rate of younger people dying. WebMD reported: “ Most deaths tend to be among older adults, though younger people are dying more this year. About 81% of COVID-19 deaths hit ages 65 and older last year, falling to 69% this year. The deaths among people under 45 in 2021 have been more than double the deaths in that age group from last year.” https://www.webmd.com/

4. Vaccine effectiveness wanes against infection and is known to be less effective with each new variant when it comes to cases but it still reduced transmission subastantislly while it was effective while also minimizing hospitalizations and deaths amount those that took it (and the rest of the Maga sheeple).

That article in Medium was from July, 2021 but near the end it was updated in November 2021.

His analysis aged well and is very detailed (unlike claims by the Kory and Weinstein). He's fine with investigating other treatments and figuring out what helps, besides vaccinations.

I liked Weinstein at the beginning of the Pandemic when he was asking good questions and explaining the difficulties of the situation. Eventually, he went wonky, probably to keep his audience.

I can't be a lay expert on everything and I choose not to get into climate change politics.

Heller is not a climate expert. A Nemoy movie from 1978 doesn't interest me in the least. I saw the Day After Tomorrow and understand the mechanisms whereby global warming could initiate an ice age. (half-joking). Currents in the Atlantic could be affected, stopped or even reverse due to melting glaciers and polar ice and fresh cold water disrupting ordinary circulation. Maybe the magnetic poles will shift. Maybe a mega volcano will erupt clouding (and cooling) the earth before it's too late. Maybe God does whatever He intends. Who knows?


I think as Christians we are called to be good stewards of the earth. I'll do my part as an individual but I'm hardly an environmentalist. I fly around a lot and I own an SUV. I'd love to install solar panels on some of my businesses if the numbers ever prove out but I don't want to get oversold and stuck with outdated technology in 5 years. I'm a conservative to some extent on this subject and trust God's sovereignty. If things get really bad, I have hope brilliant engineers can figure out a solution. The Netherlands have been underwater for a long time now. Remarkable things can be achieve via the knowledge God provides us.

There's also a lot of money at stake. There are liars like Tim Heller on the big oil side and, I'm sure, there are others with "alternative" "environmental" technologies stoking the other side with favorable cherry picked studies. People like "environmentalist" new age roman catholic Robert Kennedy, Jr. I'm skeptical of too. I think Heller and Kennedy don't care about truth, just making people skeptical and fearful. The new ager globalists just seek to divide and destroy so I'm just not picking sides and diving into it.

The point of modern propaganda isn't just to misinform you, it's to exhaust you, to exhaust your critical thinking skills, it's to annihilate truth so that you don't even try to figure out what is right and what is wrong.

Tim Heller and Robert Kennedy are polar opposites and both exhausting misinformers.

X,

Are you being purposefully obtuse? Or?

Leonard Nimoy NARRATED a DOCUMENTARY which was put together by "Columbia University, and leading world climate scientists and sponsored by the US Army and the National Science Foundation, this special on climate was televised in 1978" (from my comment @ 9:26 AM).

And his name is TONY Heller.

Heller clearly demolishes the "Climate Change" narrative. You naively (or worse) "choose not to get into climate change politics". Where've you been? Cumbey had talked about how the "Climate Change" was a ruse, a means by which NWO-types wish to transfer wealth to themselves, simultaneously draining the middle class. That includes you or your family and friends.

If you take the time to go through the first Heller vlog ("The Earth Began in 1960" @ 11:25 PM), then compare it with the '78 DOCUMENTARY, you'll see that Tony's work agrees. Yet the "Climate Change" narrative claims the polar opposite (pun intended). And Tony shows how Zeke Hausfather's work was obstensibly to re-write an earlier National Geographic article, the latter of which showed pre-carbon emission-era warming (1930s-40s).

Forgetting the whole vax/unvax dichotomy for the moment, the push for vax passports is a push for totalitarianism--and a very likely precursor to a 'mark of the beast'. And like all the things surrounding the draconian measures toward vax passports, "Climate Change" is yet another means by which to further the Great Reset.

Craig,

The oil barrens and other new age political types want to run their own disinformation propaganda (through Tony Heller types) so they can continue to transfer wealth to themselves, drain the middle class and maintain political power for their heretical political ideology. That includes your family and friends too.

Demonstrating, in hindsight, that a 20 minute tv segment from 1978 was ill-informed and based on weak research is kind of stretch as proof the entire field of climatology is out to get us or that Tony Heller is legitimate. I watched part of the segment and it was speculative anyway. Ice ages are real and so are extremely hot periods. It's the speed of the change that can cause the biggest issues but a massive volcano might make us happy we warmed it up to some extent before such. God knows.

Most are university types, like Griffen Miller in the video. He's still a professor of climatology in Colorado. These men quietly do their work, publish papers, hold conferences and try to build consensus. The sketpicism is built into the work as they compete against one another and scrutinize one another. Is it perfect science, no. Do politicians and economic interests seek to distort science in their favor, of course...on both sides.

Tony Heller isn't at that table and neither is Robert Kennedy, Jr. because neither of them are qualified to be there.

p.s. - As a Christian I don't have to pick sides in this. Big oil has their hands and wheel barrels of cash to keep paying for support on both sides of the aisle to keep the far left "environmentalists" somewhat in check. The clean water act did a lot of good but then the corporations decided to just pollute the land. Absent Christian morals in Corporate governance, the biggest cheaters will profit the most and the only way to keep the game fair is legislation...or more Christians. We shall see.

X,

That's it; just 'wing it', when you cannot muster a coherent argument.

You completely (dis)miss the point I'm making--because you want to 'prove yourself right.' That's intellectually dishonest and intellectually lazy.

It's so much easier just to demonize someone, i.e. Heller (genetic fallacy, ad hominem) instead of doing the hard work to see if his work has merit.

You've not a clue about the Medieval Warm Period (MWP), the Little Ice Age (LIA), and how these were eradicated in favor of Michael Mann's "hockey stick" graph--historical revisionism to further the "Climate Change" agenda, which is a primary driver of the Great Reset. You don't know or care about how the 2009 Climate-gate emails exposed part of this goal of historical revisionism.

Nah, it's somehow all Big Oil. How in the world can it be Big Oil when the "Climate Change" goal is to ELIMINATE fossil fuels? That's not to say Big Oil has no stake (I'm sure they're also invested in 'Green Energy'); but, the point is it's much larger than that. You're being too myopic.

I know that I have been guilty of overreach and speculation in this question. But here I go again. It seems plain to me that
II Thessalonians 2:11 is very likely the very point that we are at on the timeline. God is indeed sending them strong delusion so that they might believe a lie.
All sorts of people; intelligent people, are are in absolute panic about this virus, even now, when it seems to be finally waning. They are in more of a panic now than ever! Brilliant luminaries of wisdom, like Whoopie Goldberg, and Howard Stern, who is absolutely terrified, suggests that the unvaccinated should be banned from everywhere and should be "left to die", or how about our brilliant Canadian President who feels essentially the same way, even as Walmart in Canada has now banned all unvaccinated people from their stores.
And, on a personal level, my boss just cut ties with me and basically let me go because I'm not vaccinated.
Praise God! Bless His holy name. Lord of Hosts is his name. Yeshua, (Jesus) is his son! Let all that is within me bless his holy name.
Oh yeah God has sent them a strong delusion alright, and they are believing a lie. For that reason and considering the topic of II Thessalonians, I think we must be very near to the revealing of the Antichrist.

The Marxist Jesuit pope strikes again, and hypocrisy abounds!

Pope Francis: Taxation Is an Important Tool for ‘Wealth Redistribution’

https://www.breitbart.com/faith/2022/01/31/pope-francis-taxation-is-an-important-tool-for-wealth-redistribution/

"In reality, he declared, “taxation is a sign of legality and justice. It must promote the redistribution of wealth, protecting the dignity of the poor and the least, who always risk being crushed by the powerful.”

“Taxation, when it is right, is a function of the common good,” he asserted. “Let us work to increase the culture of the common good, so that the universal destination of goods is taken seriously.”

NOTE: Conveniently, nowhere in the pope's statement is the Vatican's offer to 'pay taxes' in order to advance the 'redistribution of wealth."

The Roman Catholic Church is one of the biggest property owners in the entire world, with holdings in virtually every country. It owns major interests in over 200 global corporations. It even has its own 'bank,' the notoriously corrupt Vatican Bank. The 'church' collects enormous amounts via contributions, along with the huge money making scheme via "masses for the dead" that are said in countless churches all over the world ... all for a 'suggested' charge. Consider the vast money that is made through the vice of their global gambling operation (bingo, carnivals, feasts, etc.). Untold wealth abounds, and yet, not one single penny is taxed!

Your words absolutely resonate with me.
The crazies - the godless are taking it all over. The globalists -secular and religious - and the one world everything they are demanding is coming about. The over the top scaremongers--we know who promotes the delusions that are trending right now in nearly every post he posts and just a small example of the flood of delusional trash that is being pumped out day and night everywhere.
So the world is being readied. the Reset is to be kicked off shortly, the grocery store shelves are showing the strains and lacks, many employers are caving even willingly now when there is no need to, so many people have caved scared out of their minds and some actually believe it is their "christian" duty to stand with a godless governance rather than stand for Biblical decency and reason and most especially stand for Jesus--the Gospel that saves--who stood against the rulers of His day because He is the Savior and Ruler the world would not accept--but there is a ruler they (meaning most) will! So it is all ripe for the Revelation to unfold. Anti-Christ is on his way, ready soon. he will have lots of "promises" for the deluded whose hopes are in this world.

It is him the world and it's godless system of "justice" and "freedoms" that they will accept. He will enter the world's stage soon. Look at people lining up for it! But the Bible has told us what to look for and we who really believe Jesus see it, and revealed right on cue from heaven. It's by faith we will know the voice of the Spirit against all the noise of hell coming. The massive controls are rolling in and the sound is like prison bars closing around us...but only those hidden in Christ Jesus are free because no prison ever designed for us will hold us back from the Lord.
And so be it. God will get His Glory. He rules over this world with His Eye on those that are His, that remnant that belongs to Him. Keep telling the story because He hasn't called us up there yet. There are still those who will hear the call of God to salvation. we must be wise and ready like the 5 virgins whose lamps were full of oil...the darkness was pushed back for them as the Bridegroom was on His way.
Hallelujah!

One cannot so quickly dismiss Climatologist Dr. Judith Curry

Judith Curry - Climate Science and the Uncertainty Monster

TheIHMC

How to understand and reason about uncertainty in climate science is a topic that is receiving increasing attention in both the scientific and philosophical literature. This is one perspective on exploring ways to understand, assess and reason about uncertainty in climate science. Uncertainty associated with climate science and the science-policy interface presents unique challenges adding to the complexity of the climate system itself, the potential for adverse socioeconomic impacts of climate change, and politicization of proposed policies to reduce societal vulnerability to climate change. The challenges to handling uncertainty at the science-policy interface are framed using the ‘monster’ metaphor, whereby attempts to tame the monster are described. Uncertainty of climate models is interpreted in the context of model inadequacy, uncertainty in model parameter values, and initial condition uncertainty. The challenges of building confidence in climate models are described. A concerted effort is needed to identify better ways of framing the climate change problem, explore and characterize uncertainty, reason about uncertainty in the context of evidence-based logical hierarchies, and eliminate bias from the consensus building process.

Dr. Judith Curry is Professor and former Chair of the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Dr. Curry received a Ph.D. in atmospheric science from the University of Chicago in 1982. Prior to joining the faculty at Georgia Tech, she held faculty positions at the University of Colorado, Penn State University and Purdue University. With research interests spanning a variety of topics in climate, her current interests include climate dynamics of the Arctic, climate dynamics of extreme weather events, and reasoning about climate uncertainty. She is a Fellow of the American Meteorological Society, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the American Geophysical Union.

Dr. Curry has recently presented U.S. Congressional Testimony to the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works and the House Subcommittee on the Environment. She is a prominent public spokesperson on issues associated with the integrity of climate research. Curry serves as president and co-owner of the company Climate Forecast Applications Network LLC (CFAN). CFAN translates the scientific weather and climate research so that governments and industries can better anticipate and manage weather- and climate-related risks. Curry is proprietor of the blog Climate Etc., which discusses current topics in climate science, climate and energy policy, challenges at the science-policy interface, and use of social media in engaging with the public on complex and controversial topics.

Craig,

"Belief polarization as a result of the politicization of the science."


I agree. I said last night I'm not getting into climate change denial "politics" because that's all it is. Why would I dispute a blogger and disinformationist like Tony Heller? He's not a climatologist, he's just a paid grifter making money off the uncertainties of science in order to cast political doubt on a subject the real experts are quite certain of.

The consensus of scientists believe, based on the data, the earth is warming due to man-made carbon emissions.

Of course there are climate uncertainties, some of which are quite substantial, science and statistics have developed and refined sensible approaches to dealing with them and they are nothing to be scared of. The existence of significant uncertainties does not mean we don't know anything or that no conclusions can be drawn. We understand the main drivers of the climate reasonably well, and the climatologists consistently take the remaining uncertainties into account when drawing conclusions.

The probelm is and has been since the days of big tobacco and madison avenue PR firms scientists aren't communicators and don't understand politics. That "email" scandel was nothing more than scientists trying to colloborate in messaging in a desperate misguided attempt to communicate facts and consensus more effectively knowing they were/are up against a political and industrial misinformation monster who doesn't need or want to prove anything other than the lie that the science is uncertian.


The reason you all buy a lot of this nonsense and science debunking bullcrap has nothing to do with science but rather a fear of environmentalists, of hippies, of marxists, of liberals, etc. Big tabacco started this by pretending the science was unclear whether smoking caused cancer, whether cigarettes could be made to be self-extinguishing, whether anti-smoking legislation was an affront to our liberty and freedom. If a product like cigarettes could accomplish a 20 year regulatory delay certainly chemical manufacturers, GMO manufacturers, Oil, Coal and others toxic harmful polluting industries could get on board undermining science using lobbyist and paid off sceintists to the sow any doubt they could on the American public and "protect our freedom" or their freedom to rob the public by protecting conservative america from the libtards.

There is no desire for actual truth and understanding. It's just one side doing research, publishing papers (which, I understand, Curry doesn't do anymore after being removed from her position at Georgia Tech) and the other industries and lobbyists working full-time for millions of dollars cherry picking data and sowing doubt hoping to maintain their income streams another week, month and/or year(s) in cooperation with a paid off political party that wraps their political messaging around the "freedom" to doubt facts and avoid regulations until some speculative day the facts are confirmed.

I USED to believe some of these lies. The whole anti-vax arguments piggy-backing on these other lies pretty much pull the curtain back on the madison street wizards playing this game with their political partners.

I'm not jumping up and down ready to buy an electric car and cut my carbon footprint just yet but I no longer believe these political lies anymore.

Following data, evidence and God given science doesn't make me a Marxist or even a liberal. Propogating it and denying it unfactually for political expediency does make you and Tony Heller and Dr. Curry liars.

Big changes in weather can be completely natural and maybe such natural changes will happen and save us from ourselves or make things much much worse.

Here's some new research on the "Little Ice Age"

WINTER IS COMING: RESEARCHERS UNCOVER THE SURPRISING CAUSE OF THE LITTLE ICE AGE: Cold era, lasting from early 15th to mid-19th centuries, triggered by unusually warm conditions

December 15, 2021

Excerpt:

"But in the late 1300s, AMOC strengthened significantly, which meant that far more warm water than usual was moving north, which in turn cause rapid arctic ice loss. Over the course of a few decades in the late 1300s and 1400s, vast amounts of ice were flushed out into the North Atlantic, which not only cooled the North Atlantic waters, but also diluted their saltiness, ultimately causing AMOC to collapse. It is this collapse that then triggered a substantial cooling.

Fast-forward to our own time: between the 1950s to the late 1960s, we have also seen a rapid strengthening of AMOC, which has been linked with persistently high pressure in the atmosphere over Greenland. Lapointe and Bradley think the same atmospheric situation occurred just prior to the Little Ice Age—but what could have set off that persistent high-pressure event in the 1380s?

The answer, Lapointe discovered, is to be found in trees. Once the researchers compared their findings to a new record of solar activity revealed by radiocarbon isotopes preserved in tree rings, they discovered that unusually high solar activity was recorded in the late 1300s. Such solar activity tends to lead to high atmospheric pressure over Greenland.

At the same time, fewer volcanic eruptions were happening on earth, which means that there was less ash in the air. A “cleaner” atmosphere meant that the planet was more responsive to changes in solar output. “Hence the effect of high solar activity on the atmospheric circulation in the North-Atlantic was particularly strong,” said Lapointe.

Lapointe and Bradley have been wondering whether such an abrupt cooling event could happen again in our age of global climate change. They note that there is now much less arctic sea ice due to global warming, so an event like that in the early 1400s, involving sea ice transport, is unlikely. “However, we do have to keep an eye on the build-up of freshwater in the Beaufort Sea (north of Alaska) which has increased by 40% in the past two decades. Its export to the subpolar North Atlantic could have a strong impact on oceanic circulation”, said Lapointe. “Also, persistent periods of high pressure over Greenland in summer have been much more frequent over the past decade and are linked with record-breaking ice melt. Climate models do not capture these events reliably and so we may be underestimating future ice loss from the ice sheet, with more freshwater entering the North Atlantic, potentially leading to a weakening or collapse of the AMOC.” The authors conclude that there is an urgent need to address these uncertainties."

Well, you're at least consistent. Everyone who disagrees with the positions you cling to are "liars", including Climatologist Dr. Judith Curry, who resigned her tenured position "because of what she called 'the poisonous nature of the scientific discussion around human-caused global warming'" (as opposed to your libelous "being removed from her position at Georgia Tech").

Since when do we claim science has "consensus"? Isn't the very nature of science--scientific discovery--ever-evolving? And in Curry's talk she noted that this "consensus" as you call it (starting @ 27:13) at the time (2015) was anywhere from 52-85%. But, hey, when your government funding requires adherence to the political narrative ("the politicization of the science"), then one should expect a fairly high number of adherents.

But, of course, neither of us were there so neither of us can say for sure either way.



Just not getting dragged into this bs republican political climate denial debate. Climate change is not a hoax. That doesn't mean I want everything to change to "fix" this in short order. I can be skeptical of NWO types, including Republicans, Democrats and others that would want to exploit such scientific theory for their own economic, political and theological reasons.

Progressives are too excited and eager to change things whereas conservatives don't want to change anything. These two extremes have worked together for decades in the US to help the US succeed. The US needs BOTH ways of thinking to continue that success. Being in the middle helps me discern the what right and wrong with both sides and maintain hope together we can all work through this without all the lying.

Read the studies...avoid the politics and you'll find smoking always did cause cancer, vaccines are safe and effective, man-made climate change isn't a hoax despite some scientific uncertainties, Covid-19 is real, Omicron variant may be milder but it's not just a cold, and the vaccines (3 doses) are still quite effective against Omicron infection and very effective against Omicron hospitalization and Omicron mortality.

X @ 7:25 PM,

I’ll overlook the many strawman statements in that comment.

You wrote: Being in the middle helps me discern the what right and wrong with both sides and maintain hope together we can all work through this without all the lying.

But you’re not in the middle. On this issue particularly. (Your cause is not helped when you’ve already called Dr. Curry a “liar”.) You’ve not even coherently articulated your position. You’ve just parroted, “Climate change is not a hoax”. What does that even mean? That a changing climate is not a hoax? That seasons exist? That temperatures go up and down? That there were ice ages historically?

“Climate Change” as it is typically conveyed by those supporting the current narrative is this from the EPA site I’d sourced earlier: Greenhouse gases from human activities are the most significant driver of observed climate change since the mid-20th century.

But I’ll be charitable and assume the above is really what you meant to convey.

Yet I have to state that I’m amazed how fast you got up to speed on such a complex topic on which you just yesterday stated, I can't be a lay expert on everything and I choose not to get into climate change politics. You’ve already acquired the requisite knowledge base (you’ve looked at enough of the relevant data, and maybe performed some of your own calculations, etc.) that you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that “Climate change is not a hoax”.

I’ve spent considerably more time than you on this, yet my position is essentially the much more subdued one of skepticism regarding the prevailing “Climate Change” narrative (see “most significant driver” above). I’ve read enough material by those in the know to see that there appears to be entirely too many unknowns and variables to be able to determine what factor(s) has caused the recent overall slight warming (especially keeping in mind the overall cooling trend of 1960–1979ish, as well as the warm temps of the 1930s–40s pre-human caused greenhouse gas emissions).

For what it’s worth, here’s a statement from Curry, though not a clear, “I retired because…” (timestamped at appropriate spot):

Just a few thoughts ...

The other day, I spent some time reading a number of comments located in the archives of this blog, going back approximately 5 years. What I found was a stark contrast to the blog as it exists today. Basically, the comments, for the most part, were actually informative, with honest back and forth dialogue taking place. I challenge you to do the same. It is quite enlightening.

Flash forward to today; this blog has been taken over by an obnoxious contrarian that makes it his business to advance his own radical liberal agenda. His method is not dialogue, but rather, he seeks to label everyone that even remotely disagrees with him as a "liar," a "murderer," a clandestine member of "Opus Dei," etc., etc. He also discredits EVERY source that is posted in opposition to his positions, often claiming, in a godlike manner, what is on the heart of these individuals.

Personally, I don't like banning anyone. I was not in favor of Christine being limited to "one post per week." Having said that, how is it fair and just to maintain these restrictions upon Christine while allowing "X" to virtually take over this blog?

Through his ongoing "antics," X (along with a few others) has driven quality, intelligent posters away. J and Paul are just two that come to mind. I fully understand why people such as J and Paul have left ... "antics" have been allowed to continue unabated, which has drastically diminished the value of this blog.

Craig,

My position lines up with the 100's of Christian leaders that signed on with the Evangelical Climate Initiate (see christiansandclimate.org) summarized as follows:

1) human-induced climate change is real, 2) the consequences of climate change will be significant, and will hit the poor the hardest, 3) Christian moral convictions demand our response to the climate change problem, and 4) We need to act now–governments, businesses, churches, and individuals all have a role to play.

http://www.christiansandclimate.org/statement/

My biblical support would be based upon Revelation 11:18. What does Revelation 11:18 mean:

"The twenty-four elders continue their worship by recalling how the nations raged, but God's wrath came. This part of their praise reads like Psalm 2. The psalmists asked, "Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against his Anointed, saying, 'Let us burst their bonds apart and cast away their cords from us'" (Psalm 2:1–3). However, the Lord laughs at the nations' plot and will "terrify them in his fury" (Psalm 2:4–5). The elders' worship anticipates the event described in Revelation 19, in which Jesus returns from heaven and utterly destroys His foes.

The elders' words of worship also anticipate Jesus' rewarding of His servants. Jesus promised in Revelation 22:12, "Behold, I am coming soon, bring my recompense with me, to repay each one for what he has done." The destroyers of the earth, as Revelation 11:18 indicates, will be repaid at that time with destruction".

(Excerpt above from: https://www.bibleref.com/Revelation/11/Revelation-11-18.html

p.s. - We should not be partnering with "destroyers of the earth". I won't like cutting back anymore than you and only politicians (elected officials) can make these choices. It's not a matter of "freedom" it's a matter of being good stewards. Further, whatever you read in the past written largely by republican think tanks sponsored by big oil, as of Oct 2021, the scientific consensus among actual climate scientists is now computed as being 98.7% up from 97.1% in 2015. I agree scientists can be wrong (evolution) but we don't need 100% consensus to start changing our ways.

RayB,

So you miss the days you could pontificate without being taken to the woodshed for your lies?

Stop posting lies, misinformation and deliberate half-truths and I won't have to correct/contradict you.

Pretty simple formula.

p.s. - I wonder if I went back and looked if you denied Covid being real or indicated it was no worse than a common cold? Have you at least changed your mind about that having now endured it and/or worried about your wife? As a former politician, I doubt you'd ever be sincere at all here about such. Gotta stick to the party line script., right? Just be nice to see you admit being wrong about anything. It's not a weakness to be mistaken.

RayB,

Perhaps it is you that are being contrarian. While looking over old posts myself I came across this gem by from last September where Mrs. Cumbey posted about vaccines saying:

"The only thing you evidently can see about WEF is the vaccination issue. You ignore the much more ominous aspects of their push toward bodily microchip implantation that they perceive as being fully implemented world-wide by 2026. Sweden will be fully on board on the WEF advocated cashless society by 2022 -- most or the world by 2023 and Britain by 2026 on their current projections. If you will take the time and trouble to look at the book I posted a few posts by Klaus Schwab on the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and look at their section on implants, you just might learn a little thing. Meanwhile, many thousands continue to die from the Covid19 variant strains that they are blaming, not unjustifiably on the unvaccinated. You are so preoccupied with the fictions about the vaccines such as "they cause magnets to stick to your arms" that you are obviously the diverted one. Are they using Covid19 as an excuse for their great reset? Yes! Does that mean we should ignore the disease or use hokey cures? NO!

One more thing you need to know -- much of the anti-vaccine crowd (Judy Mikovits, Robert Kennedy, and others are caught up and are faculty for an obvious New Age group calling itself "Academy of Divine Wisdom". Two big New Age names on that faculty include David Icke and Foster Gamble (the THRIVE project).

You have been sucked in!

Plus Constance herself at the time, was so detached from her blog (for very obvious understandable reasons) haphazardly showed up in the middle of discussions not really following the many other things said surrounding that topic (and other things) so she was not really "hearing" what was said by commenters here that happened to disagree with her (generally by degrees only) but was not for the reasons she was believing (probably still does who knows?)--nonetheless--much more has opened up in the topics that show commenters here have their finger on the pulse of what they have read here and what they know from other places to bring here to share. It is X who disrupts the free flow that could be going on (like MCE could do before her limits but she was not as bad as this cat)
So his attempt to pit himself and Constance against everyone else is like all of his attempts are--blatant manipulation and big flops.

Here's the actual Reuters article Mike Adams the supposed "Health Ranger" attempts to bastardize into a conspiracy theory that the vaccine is causing all these life insurance claim spikes.

Aegon, other insurers hit by U.S. COVID-19 deaths in third quarter

https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/aegon-q3-operating-result-down-16-us-covid-linked-claims-2021-11-11/

Excerpt:

"Dutch insurer Aegon NV (AEGN.AS)reported a 16% fall in third- quarter operating profit on Thursday due to higher COVID-19 related mortality claims in the Americas, the latest European insurer to suffer from new waves of the pandemic.

Aegon, which does two-thirds of its business in the United States, said "unfavourable mortality claims" in the Americas in the third quarter were $111 million, up from $31 million a year earlier.

"Performance improvements across most of our businesses ... were offset by elevated mortality in the United States," Aegon Chief Executive Lard Friese in a statement.

Among other European insurers, Swiss Re (SRENH.S)said its life and health division incurred "significantly higher COVID-19 related claims of $1.2 billion" in the first nine months of 2021 "primarily originating in the U.S.". CEO John Dacey cited U.S. spikes in February and August.

Munich Re also saw a higher than expected COVID impact in its results earlier this week.

U.S. firm MetLife (MET.N)was hit at its domestic life operations in generally strong third-quarter earnings. read more

It said that in the third quarter, 40% of U.S. COVID-19 deaths were of people under 65 years old, "the highest percentage in any quarter since the pandemic began"." (end quote)


So what does that tell you.

1. February and August spikes in life insurance claims correlate with the Dec 2020/Jan 2021 which was quieted, in part, by vaccines being rolled out as well as the July/August (and September) Delta variant spike.

2. Life Insurance claims lag. You usually deal with immediate grief, family mourning and have a funeral and THEN, in time, process a life insurance claim.

3. The life insurance claim spikes do not correlate with the vaccine rollout in the US, let alone the varying rollout programs throughout the world

4. The Delta variant killed younger unvaccinated persons who were much more likely to have a job with life insurance as a fringe benefit. Also, younger people purchase life insurance to protect their families while it's still affordable. Older, retired persons that died in 2020 were much less likely to have life insurance.

Use common sense. Look across the US and see all the "excess deaths" that were being caused by Covid in Jan/Feb 2021 and in July-Sept 2021 (3rd Quarter). If this excess death was really being caused by vaccines it would have been a spike in January through maybe April and then a lower steady rate after that. If you think the vaccine caused death lags then the February spike had nothing to do with vaccines but that spike should have continued to effect lots more vaccinated people continuing this past fall and winter into all the northern states too. Unfortunately, percentage-wise it was largely unvaccinated people contributing to excess deaths. The only vaccinated persons dying were largely older persons with 4 or more comorbidities.

Hope that helps you not get sucked in by new age maestro, Mike Adams and his Luciferian friends.

X,

I’ll give you credit for finding a (seemingly) Christian site to support your “Climate Change” stance, though there really are not very many signatories (and some have raised by eyebrows before, such as Mouw, Neff). It’s not that difficult to find articles to support the narrative, though. The Skeptical Science site is by John Cook, the same individual in the debunked Cook, et al paper claiming the 97% figure, which Obama and others parroted (and went further by exaggerating it):

'97% Of Climate Scientists Agree' Is 100% Wrong

And let’s not forget how Galileo was wrong—and the sole minority—until he was right.

While your source for a brief exposition of Revelation 11:18 was fine, your novel interpretation of “those destroying the earth” is an example of eisegesis to support your pretext. Can you find any credible source that agrees with your interpretation in this context, most specifically your literal understanding of “earth”, as in the planet? (I note that the ‘Christians and Climate’ site does not use Rev 11:18 as support.)

We have an accusative (direct object) clause, having two parts: “those destroying” and “the earth”. What do those mean individually and then together?

Given the genre of Revelation (Jewish apocalypticism), it’s no surprise that many passages allude to the OT. Here we have an allusion to Jeremiah 51:24–35 (LXX 28:24–25): Babylon, which “destroys the whole earth”. Not the planet, but people.

I quickly consulted four commentaries for interpretation of “those destroying the earth”. None preferred your literal rendering of “earth”. I’ll list the four authors and then each one’s interpretation of “those destroying (the earth)”, followed by “the earth”:

D. Aune: perhaps Rome (Babylon) and her allies | metonymy for “people of the earth”
C. Koester: Satan, Beast, False Prophet, Babylon | humankind
G. Osborne: Babylon, those following the Beast | probably “saints” worldwide
R. Thomas: Babylon, Beast, False Prophet, Satan | implies humankind

Since the Elders’ song (11:17–19) is primarily about judgment, both in its positive and negative sense, “the earth” is most logically referring to humankind.

We should not be partnering with “the destroyers of the earth”.

Rich Peterson - Medford said...

“Christians can take comfort in the fact that the first three scientific assessments of the IPCC, in 1990, 1995, and 2001, were chaired by Sir John Houghton, an evangelical Christian. To see the text and slides of a recent presentation by Sir John to the National Association of Evangelicals, go to our Resources page.” - http://www.christiansandclimate.org/statement


From its very inception of the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE) resisted Richard Cizik’s collaborative efforts with Sir John Houghton as he formed the Evangelical Climate Initiative. They recognized that its roots in the 1992 Earth Summit had an agenda to blend the world’s religions as well as make the Earth Charter the world constitution. Maurice Strong indicated “the real goal of the Earth Charter is that it will in fact become like the Ten Commandments.” Cizik was later expelled from the NAE for this as well as for his positions on same sex unions and abortion.

“In the U.S., the Evangelical statement on climate change (www. christiansandclimate.org) has garnered an immense amount of coverage . . . coverage that often ignores the long work of some evangelicals and the more liberal denominations on this topic. This statement was initiated at an international gathering in Oxford, England in 2002 and the introduction of Richard Cizik of the National Association of Evangelicals to Sir John Haughton of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Although the goal of an unanimous statement from the National Association of Evangelicals failed, it is far more significant that the February 2006 “Climate Change: An Evangelical Call to Action” statement was signed by over one hundred key evangelical leaders in the U.S., ranging from the popular evangelical leader and author Reverend Rick Warren (2002) of the 22,000 members Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California to the heads of many important evangelical colleges and seminaries, and to several of the staff at the popular conservative U.S. Christian magazine, Christianity Today.”

THE DANGERS OF EMOTIONAL HYPE

“These issues are extremely complex-too complex for simple solutions based on emotional hype. Yet, that is exactly what we are hearing from environmental leaders and a small minority of scientists. We came dangerously close to signing extremely costly treaties at the 1992 Earth Summit at Rio de Janeiro.

“During the Earth Summit we were barraged with the "fact" that global warming was proven by science. At best that image was a gross distortion of reality. At worst, it was a lie. What few realized was that the so-called fact was based upon a falsified summary of a scientific report on global warming published in 1990.

“This summary, produced by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), was the centerpiece of the global warming call-to-action at the Earth Summit. The primary report, the Scientific Assessment of Climate Change, was the result of a meeting of nearly 200 climatologists, scientists, bureaucrats, and administrators from around the world. It basically outlined the uncertainties noted above. But when the IPCC produced the document of this meeting, the uncertainties outlined by the scientists were minimized by the one to three carefully chosen people who wrote each chapter. The uncertainties disappeared entirely in the executive summary. Instead of uncertainty, the summary concluded that the greenhouse effect "poses a significant environmental threat". According to Christopher Folland, assistant to Sir John Houghton of the United Kingdom Meteorological Office who wrote the summary, the summary would have had no value to policymakers if it were punctuated by repeated cautions and "on the other hand" statements. Since its release, the summary has been presented to political leaders and the public as an "authoritative statement of the international scientific community." But it was a fraud.

“Enraged, forty-eight American scientists who contributed to the original report formed the Science and Environmental Policy Project (S&EPP). Led by Fred Singer, Atmospheric Physicist and Director, Science and Environmental Policy at the University of Virginia, the S&EPP challenged the "unsupported assumption that catastrophic global warming follows from the burning of fossil fuels and requires immediate action.'" In a separate action, an additional 46 prominent scientists and intellectuals in the United States, including 27 Nobel Prize winners, joined 218 scientists in other countries and presented what is called the Heidelberg Appeal to the Heads of States Attending the Earth Summit. This appeal states that the global warming theory, ozone depletion theory, and other "catastrophes" paraded before the world are based on "pseudoscience, irrational preconceptions, and non-relevant data.

“Tragically, any scientist who disagrees with the apocalypse machine is ignored…”

THE "CONSENSUS" MELTS FASTER THAN ARCTIC ICE

“It is quite comical that a movement of thought that is all about rescuing the natural world from the perceived predations and dehumanizing effects of technology should itself be abandoning human observation of the natural world and using technology instead to falsify the truths of nature. And as Lovelock and Plimer both observe, this betrays the principles of science. One of the most fundamental of these principles is that science can never be a closed book. Scientific minds must always be open, all theories are contestable, and all science is an arena of argument and debate. If a scientific argument is said to be "over;' settled through a "consensus" of unchallengeable conclusions, it stops being science and turns instead into dogma.

“That, however, is exactly how anthropogenic global warming theory is couched. Lord May, president of Britain's premier scientific academy, the Royal Society, declared that there was "a clear scientific consensus on the facts" of manmade global warming and thus the argument was over.

"In April 2001, Robert Watson, chairman of the IPCC, dismissed suggestions that there was a 50-50 split in the scientific community over climate change or humanity's role in producing it. "It's not even 80-20 or 90-10 (in percentage terms). I personally believe it's something like 98-2 or 99-1,' he said. And Sir John Houghton, the former head of Britain's Meteorological Office, said that worldwide there were no more than ten scientists active in the field and well versed in the arguments who disagreed with the notion of human induced climate change.

Rich Peterson - Medford said...

(continued)

“The Washington Post asserted that there were only "a handful of skeptics" of manmade global warming theory. The ABC News reporter Bill Blakemore – who declared, "I don't like the word 'balance' much at all" in global warming coverage – reported that "after extensive searches, ABC News has found no such [scientific] debate" on global warming.

“Well, they can't have been looking very hard. For not only is the idea of a global warming consensus antiscientific, it is not remotely true. On April 6, 2006, sixty scientists wrote a letter to the Canadian prime minister criticizing AGW theory. "Observational evidence does not support today's computer climate models, so there is little reason to trust model predictions of the future,' they said. In 2007, some 450 scientists from more than two dozen countries, several of them current and former participants in the IPCC, voiced significant objections to the claims made by the IPCC and Al Gore. By 2009, that number had risen to 700 scientists.

“In his book The Deniers, Lawrence Solomon observes that the skeptics tend to be far more accomplished and distinguished scientists than those pushing the theory as a settled and incontrovertible truth. A number of them are so eminent they were used as experts by the IPCC, but then came to realize that they were involved in an innately corrupted process and that some of their own work was being abused and distorted in order to promulgate the false doctrine of anthropogenic global warming.”

Craig,


Looking at Revelation 11:18

"gēn" appears 78 times in the bible and appears to me to largely/always refer to the physical earth according to the Englishman's Concordance -
https://biblehub.com/greek/ge_n_1093.htm


Revelation 11:18, to me, casts the two sides of humanity, the Prophets and Saints on one side and those who destroy the Earth on the other. John doesn’t use "kosmos", the word for world in a social/spiritual sense, nor does John use "oikoumené" the word he used in Revelation 3:10, 12:9 & 16:14 for "inhabitants of the earth" or "the Roman world", but gēn, the word for the physicality of the planet we live on (as in Revelation 7:2, 8:5 and 8:7).

The difference between gēn and gé might be an interesting analysis. (I'm stretching myself here enough already)

In any case, even if we expand the meaning of “destroying the Earth” to include more than the literal physical destruction of the planet, the literal meaning of course still applies. It’s pretty remarkable that “destroyers of the Earth” is how John has defined the enemies of God. Perhaps such doesn't bode well for the Koch brothers and their benefactors. Would it be right to say God doesn’t want to destroy the Earth; He wants to shake the wicked out of it so that His creation can enjoy it? Can we find evidence for such when God says to Job, “Have you commanded the morning since your days began, and caused the dawn to know its place,13 that it might take hold of the skirts of the earth,
and the wicked be shaken out of it?" Job 38:12-13 ESV

Commentaries that seem to agree (doesn't seem very Calvinist though):

Gill's Exposition: And shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth; or "corrupt it"; meaning antichrist and his followers; who destroy the bodies, souls, and estates of men, and not only the inhabitants of the earth, but even the earth itself; for through that laziness and idleness which they spread wherever they come, a fruitful country is turned into barrenness; who corrupt the minds of men with false doctrine, idolatry, and superstition...

p.s. - Regarding the Forbes article. Remember when Dr. Campbell knocked the BBC for using journalists to review and criticize medical papers? This is the same thing. This is an "opinion piece" by Alex Epstein, the founder of the Center for Industrial Progress and author of The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels. Where's his study that passed peer review? At least Dr. Curry had credentials and she was only borderline denier (which hasn't aged well). Epstein has just a BA in Philosophy from Duke.

It's not about finding answers and reasonable solutions. It's simply casting aspersion over the entire field as a way to manage the public relations risks of being forced to change anything. I don't want to switch to an electric car or trim my carbon footprint anymore than anyone else but if the truth is we are harming the environment, then that's the truth and we can work, progressive and conservative from there versus whatever industry wants their truth to be.

Craig said...

Rich @ 8:43, 8:56, 9:10 (x2),

Many thanks for your input.

---

X,

You’re way out of your depth here. “gēn” is simply the accusative form of the nominative (“gēs” is the genitive). But, as always, it’s context that determines the meaning; it doesn’t matter what a term means in another context.

The key to the interpretation is its allusion to Jeremiah 51:24–25, and gē, not kosmos, is what is in the LXX. Moreover, this is what is in Rev 19:2—again referencing Babylon (“corrupts the earth [‘gēn’] by her porneia”).

Even the Gill commentary interprets it in a dual fashion, AND not in any sort of way you or anyone can construe “Climate Change”, especially in the way you are attempting.

I well know the Epstein article was an opinion piece; however, he is absolutely correct in that the Cook et al is a fatally flawed piece of propaganda. Numerous authors Cook cites responded, complaining he’d taken them out of context, and that their works do not support what he purports they do. One doesn’t need to be a climatologist, e.g., to report on how scientists were complaining that Cook was faulty, and that his conclusion was invalid.

"You have nothing to offer but smear and antics X."

Antics would be copying and pasting from Melanie Phillips, a simple journalists' book from 2010 and another book from 1994 as a refutation of a scientific discussion in 2022.

The Heidelberg Appeal appears to have been a coordinated PR stunt.

https://www.desmog.com/heidelberg-appeal/

The way it appears to me and anyone with any sense is that the politicization of climate change was entirely manipulated by the oil and gas industry. There may be new age types that want to enact environmental policies that would be disruptive but there are way more new age types running these corporations and think tanks manipulating truth, while claiming to be Christians, than scientists trying to take over the world.

In other words, climate change denial appears to be the conspiracy theory bought and paid for by big oil and energy as it supports its interests by dominating the hypocritical heretical republican party.

(Democratic Party is heretical too, but it's not pretending to be Christian in the first place)

p.s. - Not sure how Maurice Strong fits into the argument you presented above. Maurice Strong was, at one time, CEO of Petrol Canada. He was a longtime ambassador to the UN and/or UN operative. He pretended to be an environmentalist at times but was criticized for several shady deals. He was also a suspected adulterer who left the wife of his youth in 1980 to marry his suspected mistress in 1981. I don't trust that guy nor the ecumenical NAE. But maybe that was your point or the point of the authors of your quotes. Sir John Houghton, interestingly enough, died of covid in 2020.

RayB,

I decided to come back now that Rich is moderating. I won't be commenting very frequently because of my busy schedule, but I thought you might like to know that, at your recommendation, I finally started reading The Real Anthony Fauci, by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Somebody like X could easily read this book to find the level of research or science that he represents himself as insisting upon. In the comments section we can hardly write a book.

It occurs to me that our side is chaotic in terms of information, and it makes it easy for people to cherry pick to discredit it. If "our side" in this instance is everybody who is skeptical of the official COVID narrative and is looking for alternatives, then "our side" includes New Agers and quacks, of course, inevitably. Alternative medicine is rife with them.

But we can't control everybody who is skeptical of the government health agencies or the mainstream media. I do think we have the responsibility, insofar as we are capable of it, of trying to do "freelance quality control." I attempt to do it, and I hope it's not confused with what X attempts to do.

As Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. points out, when we are told to trust the experts, it's naive at best and manipulative at worst. As he says, he's never brought a court case in his decades of practice, in which opposing experts were not marshaled to say contrary things on both sides.

As he points out, the experts in our government health agencies are bought and paid for, and what they are doing is much different than science. Fauci may say, in so many words, "I am the science," but it doesn't make it true.

I'm familiar with this process in the autism biomed community, too. Self-styled "science bloggers" never feature the best and most hopeful advances in science and medicine. Instead they find the most ridiculous fads they can and zoom in on those warts, making the warts take up the whole frame. They don't care at all about keeping up with the science.

The problem is harder than one-off problem of faulty deductive reasoning or just one bad fact claim. It's a huge problem of inductive reasoning. It's a lot of work to overcome the problem.

It takes only a little work to misrepresent a whole chaotic aggregate of voices and choices. It takes a lot of work to fairly and accurately characterize the immense variety of the same aggregate.

It's easy for people who want to avoid the work, to say, "Because I told you so," when questioned about anything. Because the CDC told us so, because Fauci told us so, those types of answers are not at all "following the science." They are only "following the experts," but that's useless, because the experts are bought and paid for.

Yet we have a population of people who have already learned to be skeptical of the CDC and of the AMA for other reasons, long before COVID hit. I'm one of those people, and I'm in good company, a company of millions upon millions of people.

We do get preyed upon by quacks and grifters. Absolutely. It's not wrong to call them out. It's just wrong to use them to misrepresent the whole immense variety of all skeptics of official narratives who seek alternative information and alternative choices.

So I hope there will be some room for people to be well-intentioned internal critics, and all critics won't get relegated to the outside of the group. Although I do understand why X provokes people.

After all, Constance can, and should, clear up any doubt, but hasn't chosen to do so. So it is fair to assume their, perhaps, sizable degree of agreement?

9:38 AM,

For the record, I don't care if X is limited to one post per week like Christine. I was commenting about something much bigger.

I would suggest addressing Rich with your concerns about X and your proposed solution, because he's the one moderating the comments section.

Constance has made it plain on a couple of occasions that she has not paid attention to X.

Please show Constance some graciousness and don't be so quick to judge her. She's given forty years of service to the cause of exposing the New Age and the NWO, and in her old age, she is suffering from medical problems with her eyes.

Rich,

How about limiting X to one post a week?

An excerpt from Chapter 1 of The Real Anthony Fauci. Was Fauci naive, or was he manipulative? You decide:

Fauci adopted this unprecedented protocol of telling doctors to let patients diagnosed with a positive COVID test go home, untreated -- leaving them in terror, and spreading the disease -- until breathing difficulties forced their return to hospitals. There they faced two deadly remedies: remdesivir and ventilators.

...

Dr. Fauci's choice to deny infected Americans early treatment was not just a bad public health strategy; it was McCullough avows, "Cruelty at a population level." Says McCullough, "Never before in history have doctors deliberately treated patients with this kind of barbarism."

"I told myself, 'I am not going to tolerate that -- in my practice, or on a national level or worldwide,'" Dr. McCullough told me. Realizing that COVID had to be fought on multiple fronts, McCullough began contacting physicians in other nations who were reporting success against the disease, including doctors in Italy, Greece, Canada, across Europe, and in Bangladesh and South Africa.

McCullough continues, "If this had been any other form of pneumonia, a respiratory illness, or any other infectious illness in the human body, we know that if we start early, we can actually treat much more easily than wait until patients are very sick." McCullough says that the rule holds true for COVID-19: "We learned quickly that it takes about two weeks for someone infected with COVID to get sick enough at home to require hospitalization."

Extreme people need measures put on them sometimes. When Christine was way out of hand that happened and I think it needs to happen to X. Not that I like that, I don't, and with Rich stepping in as he is now, perhaps won't be necessary. One would hope...Anyway, his content, though I do not uphold it, in most cases deeply disagree, is not what I feel needs limited so much as his uncivility that goes unchecked. (hateful gutter-minded "poet" has not been seen and heard from for a while, thankfully I think his posts were getting deleted). Anyway, that got Christine in trouble (and deleted) as it should have...and X is in many ways worse than she was at that time, (he could stand deleting himself). The man is malevolence on wheels, writing gossipy snippets unimportant to the content in posts in addition to disparaging mischaracterizations, deliberate distortions of what people say of personal opines or of their posted information and links and try to clarify yet he continues the over the top misconceptions and disruptions...in "Bidenesque/Media" fashion, with as much zealotry as they do.
To Craig (and Rich too now) he pulls the same stunts (not quite as scalding but certainly condescending and disrespectful) and they have been very forward to actually debate issues with him with more indepth material and with an even tone in their posts, not using the reciprocal name-calling. (X acts Alinsky-like in his provocation styled approach and some in exasperation, return the favor). This proves he is here to do nothing but troll to non-stop argue, when that is his approach with them also.
J made the good point (hello J)--has been made multiple times before---all sides have vetting coming to them. That is only right--that is fair--needful--that can happen here, if zealots are kept in check. Zealots come in all flavors, but the particular one here causing the real muck up is "easy going guy" X. He is nowhere near "middle".. So, by all means, "chew the meat and spit out the bones" is still the way to process the much information flowing these days.



X had said: Truth offends. Granted, that is many times the case.
But his huge blind spot is, that he generally leaves the whole truth out..using cherry pickings, red herrings, and strawmen...to openly, willfully offend---and for the sake of offending. Maybe he doesn't know any better, but he should.

And leave Constance out of it (either to castigate and rudely tell her to step down or fake cheek kiss her like X, to ride her coattails). She has more than enough to do anyway. She does not have to explain or spoon feed everyone her thoughts, is counterproductive and would never please all people at all times..and.....it's her blog!

Welcome Back J - Things to consider while reading RFK, Jr's book.

A display of ignorance unmitigated by rational argument

"This is a terrible book and a blight on the public record of Robert Kennedy. It is ignorant, poorly argued, and dismissive of the most obvious facts about the etiology, progression, and public health measures to attenuate the impact of the novel, highly contagious SARS coronavirus 2 which causes COVID-19. As we know, it is an airborne virus which leads to a disease for which the human population has no natural immunity. Until the development & intro of highly effective vaccines, particularly the novel mRNA-based vaccines, the only effective response was to employ well-understood principles of public health mitigation. Mr. Kennedy argues that public health measures, principally social distancing, mask-wearing, and quarantine, are not only unnecessary and ineffective, but, actually cause greater harm than mitigating the pandemic. As evidence, he cites statistics (deaths/million) that purport to show that the US, which more or less adopted these measures, actually performed worse than countries which did not. He calls this “Anthony Fauci’s Report Card.” The data he presents is quite misleading. It is true that the US has been hit hard by COVID, but the statistics are heavily weighted by the experience of three states, New York, New Jersey, and California, 23% of the US population, 17% of the deaths from COVID. More revealing is that over 75% of the deaths in those states occurred before the “Fauci measures” were widely adopted. A better comparison is the experience in those states which have adopted as state policy the public health measures and those that have not. The death rates of 25 of the top 30 states are found in states like Florida, Texas, and most of the Southern States, which have not only not adopted these measures, but have taken official steps to oppose them. As of today, the death rates in Florida (2,603/mm) and Texas (2,896/mm) are far higher than California (1,923/mm), and unlike California, the majority of deaths in Florida (60%+) have occurred since January 2021, while in California most COVID-related deaths (85%) occurred before the introduction of the vaccines in January 2021. The death rates in Mississippi and Alabama (3,479/mm and 3,335/mm) are close to double the rate in California.

The experience in Europe is also telling. Sweden had been vocal and slow in opposing the adoption of public health measures to mitigate the pandemic, while its neighbors Finland and Norway embraced them. The death rates reflect this difference in public policy: Sweden 1,491/mm vs. Norway 220/mm.

A more telling comparison is Estonia, which did not adopt restrictive measures, at 1,471/mm, and Finland, which did, and which shares a similar population profile and ethnicity, at 242/mm.

Of course, none of these inconvenient facts would sway Robert Kennedy. Instead, his arguments are mainly ad hominem and conspiratorial. As a general rule of thumb, when someone starts name-calling this means he’s run out of coherent evidence-based argument. He and his publisher make much of the fact that his positions are generally ignored by peer-reviewed scientific journals and most responsible journalists. They darkly raise the specter of “censorship.” A better explanation for this is that his positions are stupid."

Snippet of another review of RFK, Jr.s book:

"I pursued some of the footnotes. There was one about the government destroying hydroxychoroquine purchased by a fellow in Salt Lake City. I read the footnoted article in the Salt Lake paper. Sure, you could narrowly interpret it as the government destroying the "property." But even more, it could be read as a somewhat suspicious guy illegally buying a product. Thus, he was a criminal and didn't leave the authorities that much choice. And what a weird choice by Mr. Kennedy for an example of government overreach. Or how about the reference to Terry Michaels' article (page 147, footnote #120) that is critical of Dr. Fauci? Mr. Kennedy parenthetically mentions it was an "Unpublished Manuscript." Really? Kind of hard to vet that kind of material for accuracy and credibility.

More generally, in reading the footnotes, it's clear that Mr. Kennedy did little or no follow-up on the sources. It seems as if he (or his assistants) found something in a newspaper or blog or book or speech, he made a footnote. How about actually digging deeper into the sources (like the guy in Salt Lake City) rather than "trusting" a newspaper article?

It's a mess of a book. Boring, repetitive, and bloated. I'm sure Mr. Kennedy's "true believers" will love it. I just wish he had risked writing a different book for a different audience."

J, you may know about this McDonald autism study and whether it was actually incorporated by RKF, Jr. into his book incorrectly or not.

Final Amazon review for today

Literary Gish Gallop

Just because you cite a source, doesn't mean that the information you cite is meaningful, insightful, or useful. His inferences and loose connections left me scratching my head and writing down more questions for further research and verification.

The final straw was when he cited Michael E McDonald's faulty Autism resarch. McDonald's "research" was a post-hoc data analysis which came to a conclusion in no way inline with his original sources. Basically, he somehow concluded that beginning in 1980, there was a sharp linear increase the in the frequence of Autism. However, the source data clearly indicates the exact same linear rise since the beginning of data collection in 1920.

If this is how Kennedy approaches science, we cannot trust anything he says.

As far as I can tell, this book exists to push conspiracy theories, make outlandish claims, and to trash Tony Fauci. I give up. Ingesting any more of this book would be harmful to my health."

Excess deaths soaring in every country where covid “vaccine” uptake is high

Former Pfizer Vice President Dr. Michael Yeadon is once again speaking out about the spike in excess deaths he is seeing in nearly every country where Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccine” uptake is high.

During a recent interview, Yeadon addressed Scotland, which is one of the countries where deaths are soaring amid heavy vaccine compliance. He also talked about Germany, Israel, Spain, Italy, France, the United Kingdom and of course the United States, which are seeing similar trends.

“They’ve all seen a significant uptick in all-cause mortality,” Yeadon told the interviewer. “Why is that? What did they do differently in 2021 than they did in the years before?”

Not only is all-cause mortality up in 2021 compared to 2020, Yeadon further pointed out, but it smashed the five-year average. What changed? Hundreds of millions of people rolled up their sleeves for spike protein injections – that is what happened.

Public Health Scotland’s (PHS) October 14 Covid-19 Daily Dashboard shows that despite 87 percent of the adult population now considered to be “vaccinated,” weekly deaths are a shocking 30 percent above normal.

“This marks the 20th consecutive week with excess deaths above the five-year average and the highest since the week ending January 10, 2021,” the report explains.

The plandemic of the fully vaccinated rages on...

Another excerpt:

Ryan Cole is one of the doctors who adopted McCullough's protocols early in the pandemic. Dr. Cole is a Mayo Clinic and Columbia University-trained Board Certified Anatomic/Clinical Pathologist and the CEO/Medical Director of Cole Diagnostics, the largest independent lab in Idaho. He has diagnosed more than 350,000 patients in his career. Dr. Cole discovered McCullough's research during his own investigation of early treatment remedies when his overweight brother called Dr. Cole from a neighboring state on his way to the ER with a positive PCR test, labored breathing, blood oxygen at 86, and chest discomfort that he rated nine out of ten. "He has Type 1 diabetes, explains Dr. Cole. Dr. Cole redirected his sibling to a local pharmacy and called in an ivermectin prescription. "Within six hours, my brother's chest pain was down to two out of ten due to the interferon effect of ivermectin, and within 24 hours after taking ivermectin, his oxygen was 98, and he then fully recovered." Cole told me, "A light bulb went off."

Dr. Cole has overseen or helped perform over 125,000 COVID tests during the pandemic. Since rescuing his brother, he has encountered many patients in early stages of the disease. "Almost none of them could find doctors in the community to treat them," he told me. "I intervened to provide early treatment to over 300 positive patients, half of whom were comorbid and high risk." Of this cohort, none were hospitalized and none died. "Early treatment of COVID-19, plain and simple, saves lives. If the medical profession had been forward thinking and hands-on, and focused on this disease, with an early outpatient multi-drug approach, knowing that COVID-19 is an inflammatory clotting disease, hundreds of thousands of lives could have been saved in the US."

Ivermectin would have saved an untold number of lives (not to mention avoided untold grief and heartache for families)... but, that wasn't the Globalists' plan and agenda for the world.

The very fact that Ivermectin is so difficult to get should be enough of a 'red flag' to tell us all we need to know... that they never wanted or intended for us to 'get well'... and they certainly never intended for the so-called 'vaccine' to 'protect' us.

Idaho doctors, pathology board accuse Dr. Ryan Cole of endangering public health
The pathology board’s letter notes his public comments that insist vaccines are harmful and masks are ineffective.


DECEMBER 16, 2021

Excerpt:

“Idaho physicians allege, in complaints to a Washington medical board, that patients came into their hospitals sick with COVID-19 after taking advice or treatment from Dr. Ryan Cole, according to documents obtained by the Idaho Capital Sun through a public records request.

In addition, the American Board of Pathology urged the Washington Medical Commission to consider the actions of Cole, who is licensed to practice in Washington and previously told the Idaho Capital Sun he prescribed medications including ivermectin to at least one patient in Washington, via telehealth.

Cole is certified by the American Board of Pathology as a clinical and anatomic pathologist, a doctor who examines tissue from a biopsy to look for cancer, for example. He has operated a lab, Cole Diagnostics, for nearly 20 years as a pathologist — as opposed to examining patients or working as a primary care provider.

Cole could not be reached for comment.

The Idaho Medical Association also has filed a complaint to the Idaho Board of Medicine asking for disciplinary action, partly on that basis: a pathologist’s scope of practice does not include direct patient care, or treatment of COVID-19.

The Sun reported in October that Cole was the subject of an investigation by the Washington Medical Commission.”

“ Patients with COVID-19 now make up more than one-fourth of all the patients in Idaho hospitals.

“Idahoans who are fully vaccinated and have received their COVID-19 booster shot are 11 times less likely to be hospitalized for the coronavirus disease and 20 times less likely to die according to omicron-era data from the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare. Even without a booster shot, Idahoans who completed their 1-dose or 2-dose COVID-19 vaccine series have reduced their risk of hospitalization and death four-fold, the data show.

Opus Dei member Josh Hawley called out for parroting Russian talking points. Like Opus Dei Members Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Ted Cruz, Ronald DeathSantis, it's all about destroying/neutralizing Protestant American institutions and influence in the world in deference to Rome (as Craig and I agreed: "We should not be partnering with “the destroyers of the earth” Revelation 11:18).



Adam Kinzinger calls 'con artist' Josh Hawley 'one of the worst human beings'

https://news.yahoo.com/adam-kinzinger-calls-con-artist-001321578.html

"Kinzinger blasted Hawley on Wednesday after the senator sent a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken that said the Biden administration should stop supporting Ukraine in its efforts to be admitted into NATO. Instead, Hawley stated, the U.S. needs to focus on "denying China's hegemonic ambitions in the Indo-Pacific." Russia, which has amassed tens of thousands of troops along the border with Ukraine, has demanded that Ukraine not be admitted into NATO.

Hawley's letter struck a nerve with Kinzinger, who tweeted in response, "I hate to be so personal, but Hawley is one of the worst human beings, and a self egrandizing [sic] con artist." Hawley is a supporter of former President Donald Trump who helped lead efforts to contest President Biden's election victory and raised his fist in support of protesters at the Capitol on Jan. 6, and Kinzinger said that when "Trump goes down," he hopes Hawley's "evil" will be out in the open "for all to see, and be ashamed of."

Kinzinger wasn't the only person to call out Hawley – on Wednesday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said, "If you are digesting Russian misinformation and parroting Russian talking points, you are not aligned with long-standing bipartisan American values, which is to stand up for the sovereignty of countries like Ukraine, but others."

Lancetgate (from Chapter 1, The Real Anthony Fauci, by RFK, Jr.)

It remains an enduring mystery just which powerful figure(s) caused the world's two most prestigious scientific journals, The Lancet and the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), to publish overtly fraudulent studies from a nonexistent database owned by a previously unknown company. Anthony Fauci and the vaccine cartel celebrated The Lancet and NEJM papers on May 22, 2020 as the final nail in hydroxychloroquine's coffin.

Both studies in these respected publications relied on data from the Surgisphere Corporation, an obscure Illinois-based "medical education" company that claimed to somehow control an extraordinary global database boasting access to medical information from 96,000 patients in more than 600 hospitals. Founded in 2008, this sketchy enterprise had eleven employees, including a middling science fiction writer and a porn star/events hostess. Surgisphere claimed to have analyzed data from six continents and hundreds of hospitals that had treated patients with HCQ or CQ in real time. Someone persuaded The Lancet and the New England Journal of Medicine to publish two Surgisphere studies in separate articles on May 1 and 22. Like the other Gates-supported studies, The Lancet article portrayed HCQ as ineffective and dangerous. The Lancet study said that the Surgisphere data proved that HCQ increased cardiac mortality in COVID-19 patients. Based on this study, the FDA withdrew its EUA recommendation on June 15, 2020, the WHO and UK suspended their hydroxychloroquine clinical trials on May 25. Each returned briefly, then stopped for good in June declaring HCQ unhelpful. Three European nations immediately banned use of HCQ, and others followed within weeks.

That would normally have been the end of it, if not for the 200 independent scientists who quickly exposed The Lancet and NEJM studies as shockingly clumsy con jobs. The Surgisphere datasets that formed the foundation of the studies were so ridiculously erroneous that they could only have been a rank invention. To cite only one of many discrepancies, the number of reported deaths among patients taking hydroxychloroquine in one Australian hospital exceeded the total number of deaths for the entire country. An international brouhaha quickly revealed that the Surgisphere dataset did not exist, and soon enough, Surgisphere itself vanished from the Internet. The University of Utah terminated the faculty appointment of one of the article's authors, Amit Patel. Surgisphere's founder, Sapan S. Desai, disappeared from his job at a Chicago hospital.

Even the New York Times reported that "More than 100 scientists and clinicians have questioned the authenticity" of the database, as well as the study's integrity. Despite the barrage of astonished criticism, The Lancet held firm for two weeks before relenting to the remonstrances. Finally, three of the four Lancet coauthors requested the paper be retracted. Both The Lancet and NEJM finally withdrew their studies in shame. Somebody at the very pinnacle of the medical cartel had twisted arms, kicked groins, stoved in kneecaps to force these periodicals to abandon their policies, shred their ethics and spend down their centuries of hard-won credibility in a desperate bid to torpedo HCQ. To date, neither the authors nor the journals have explained who induced them to coauthor and publish the most momentous fraud in the history of scientific publishing.

J said...

Another choice snippet.

It is no longer controversial to acknowledge that drug makers rigorously control medical publishing and that The Lancet, NEJM, and JAMA are utterly corrupted instruments of Pharma. The Lancet editor, Richard Horton, confirms, "Journals have devolved into information laundering operations for the pharmaceutical industry." Dr. Marcia Angell, who served as NEJM editor for 20 years, says journals are "primarily a marketing machine." Pharma, she says, has co-opted "every institution that might stand in its way."

J said...

Now I will respond, X, to your repeated hammering on the theme of COVID-19 being a disease primarily of the unvaccinated.

Let's never forget something Craig and others have often pointed out, which is that the Emergency Use Authorizations for the vaccines could only have been obtained if no existing treatments were available.

After reading about the debacle with the fake database used in The Lancet and the NEJM hatchet jobs on HCQ ... I'm not sure why I should trust the data about vaccines, hospitalizations and deaths.

But regardless ...

Regardless of what the cleaned up data would actually show, it wouldn't change the basic fact that an experimental vaccine was presented as our only COVID-19 weapon in our medical arsenal at the time it obtained an EUA.

Therefore if unvaccinated people are really being hospitalized and dying of COVID at higher rates than vaccinated people, it's still a legitimate question to ask: why couldn't they have been given HCQ or Ivermectin as soon as they had a postive COVID test or as soon as they experienced symptoms.

Don't say there wasn't enough HCQ. That will lead right back to the documented facts that HCQ stocks were purposely destroyed.

Don't say HCQ distribution was logistically impossible. It was handed out in African countries and given to African citizens to take once a week for decades to prevent malaria.

Don't say HCQ is not safe. Studies were concocted to kill the elderly participants with lethally high doses, far higher than the doses doctors were using in the field. Before COVID-19, HCQ was approved as safe for pregnant women, children, the elderly and the immunocompromised.

And, again, why should I trust The Lancet or the NEJM more than I would trust Natural News? I mean that quite seriously. Go back and read those medical journal editors' quotes again.

The good folks in their alt-right media silos have been far closer to the truth than the people who have believed Fauci, the MSM and the medical journals. Perhaps their sources have been variegated and colorful at times.

How very pathetic a sign of our corruption and decline it is when the rank amateurs and shills (who have been sprinkled in at times but don't represent the entire continuum of sources presented here) prove more trustworthy than the highest status professionals and experts, yes, even the New Agers and Scientologists and ex-Scientologists. At least they aren't trying to kill us! And they might make only thousands or in very few cases millions, but their grift is small potatoes compared to the billions of dollars grift of Big Pharma.

LIBERTY COUNSEL

No FDA-Approved COVID-19 Shot Is Available

Jan 31, 2022

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Even though the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced today that it has approved a second COVID-19 “vaccine” known as Spikevax by Moderna, there are still currently no fully FDA-approved licensed shots available. All COVID shots still remain under federal Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), meaning individuals have the “option to accept or refuse” the product.

In today’s letter to Moderna, the FDA states there is no Spikevax available.

Footnote 9 on page 3 states: “The licensed vaccine has the same formulation as the EUA-authorized vaccine and the products can be used interchangeably to provide the vaccination series without presenting any safety or effectiveness concerns. The products are legally distinct with certain differences that do not impact safety or effectiveness.”

Also, footnote 11 on page 7 states: “Although SPIKEVAX (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) and Comirnaty (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) are approved to prevent COVID-19 in certain individuals within the scope of the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine authorization, there is not sufficient approved vaccine available for distribution to this population in its entirety at the time of reissuance of this EUA.”

Spikevax has the same formulation as the EUA Moderna COVID-19 shot and is administered as a primary series of two doses, one month apart.

The FDA played the same shell game last year when it announced it approved the BioNTech injection, Comirnaty....

Pathologist Sends Covid 'Vaccine' Warning: 'Cancers Are Taking Off Like Wildfire' (Video)

“We have lost our collective medical minds for money.” – Dr. Ryan Cole

"The corona vaccines are ineffective and responsible for the increased number of cancer cases, warns pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole.

Now I'm reading about Ivermectin. The Ivermectin story is just as bad as the HCQ story.

This will be a summary of only a very small portion of the Ivermectin story.

At another time, I'll have to summarize the data about all the nations of the world that have been allowed to use Ivermectin.

Merck's Ivermectin patent expired. Merck wants to make money on another drug that uses an identical mechanism as Ivermectin. Like Ivermectin, it is a anti-parasite and protease inhibitor drug. It is called molnupiravir.

Pfizer, too, wants to sell an Ivermectin-like drug, that has been dubbed "Pfizermectin." Like Ivermectin, Pfizermectin is an anti-parasite and protese inhibitor.

Molnupiravir has a poor safety profile in comparison to Ivermectin.

It was right as Merck and Pfizer were poised to release molnupiravir and Pfizermectin on the market, when the media launched the campaign to smear Ivermectin as a horse drug.
