Have you noticed that almost every time you listen to the news, someone is criticizing the scientific progress we have made.
One of the favorite targets is the oil industry. “Oil is bad! It is a pollutant! It is ruining the ozone layer! It causes global warming!”
The list goes on and on, but unfortunately, we are electing more and more people to Congress who have little or no common sense, and they believe this nonsense.
Talk about a pandemic. Take oil out of the equation, and this country goes down the tubes in less than a month. People will die by the thousands.
We are dependent on fossil fuels today, and we will be dependent on them for the foreseeable future. Wind energy is a joke. Solar panels are a joke. Nuclear energy would be great, but the “woke” crowd demands that no more nuclear plants be constructed.
But almost everything that makes our lives easier and comfortable is under attack. The air conditioner is under attack. I listened to a young man claim that we should outlaw the air conditioner and adapt to the conditions we endured before Carrier invented this wonderful machine.
How crazy is this man? I wish I could be more charitable, but he has no common sense or no appreciation what life would be like without air conditioning.
Studies indicate that students learn best when the temperature is around 72 degrees. Do you remember when schools had no air conditioning? Production increases when farmers put air conditioners in tractors. Buildings that once were miserable during the hot summer months are now havened for workers.
Hospitals could not exist without air conditioners. The elderly would die much sooner because they do not tolerate heat as well as young people.
What about our churches? No modern church is without a functioning air conditioning system. I remember attending church before air conditioning was available. About halfway through the sermon, my shirt was wet.
But I was not alone. The preacher was coming out of his coat and rolling up the sleeves on his now wet white shirt, and his handkerchief was continually wiping his face.
If you like to grill, get ready. You are contributing to global warming, and the food you cook causes all kinds of diseases including cancer. Beef must be removed from your table. If you eat fish, they must be raised in pristine conditions that ensure that they have no carcinogens in their systems and they are harvested humanely. You can no longer cook them outside on your fish cooker, but they must be cooked in your kitchen under the most restrictive conditions.
How can anyone with half a brain think like this? We are producing these people by the thousands, and if they have their way, you may be required to disconnect your air conditioner, eliminate fossil fuels, stop cooking on your grill, and adapt to sweltering heat when you attend church. If for some reason you are hospitalized, be prepared to hire someone to fan you during the hot part of the day because the hospital will have no cool air.
Under the Biden administration, “climate change” is once again rearing its ugly head. However, there is some hope because some scientists who study the climate are telling us that nothing has changed during the last 100 years. I know that this is shocking information for leftists, but the weather has remained fairly constant. But be prepared for mainstream newscasts to have someone claiming that the earth will turn into a giant fireball in 9 years.
We must learn to identify these “ministers of doom,” label them as the low IQ individuals that they are, and relegate them to the dust bin of history. Our lives will be much better once these people are called out and publicly shamed.
Remember, common sense is a wonderful thing, and you don’t have to have a Ph.D. to use it.
