Who needs God when we got OBAMA... Hope and Change is the same as Prayer and a Buck.

There isn't a God, trust me on this.



Well I hope you're wrong Pats

My best friend and I have debated about the scenario if there isn't a God.

I think it's the most terrifying thought imaginable that you die and that's it....... Nothing, ever............EVER again........

He thinks it's a peaceful thought..........

I hope there is something................anything........

It is real and there's too much evidence year after year to back it up.

I'm not sure why people don't believe it but like with many things even if some see something right in front of their eyes they refuse to admit it.

And even anyone uneducated on the subject like you say Pats can do the math and put 2 + 2 together by all the facts.

The more we destroy they Earth as we build roads, buildings, and let off other things that kill the ozone means something has to give and change, but it's changing for the worse.

The thing is, those who 100% don't believe in God should take this more serious than they are, and be much more concerned with man destroying the Earth because if life doesn't go on after this and we have nobody to turn to, then it's up to us to save mankind from becoming extinct...




You have no idea what you are talking about. Maybe just maybe all these "science people have an agenda. So when they say this is the worst storm since......pick whatever date you want. What "caused" the weather back on that date?


We can not save mankind in the wolrd decides to have another ice age. There is no stopping it. Where are the glaciers that covered most of the planet. They melted long before we had cars and coal. So what happened back then.

Pollution if much different than climate change. I am all for not polluting the planet.

None of us know if there is a God. But by all of the paranormal activity that has been witnessed and documented, I feel pretty confident that there is at least another dimension out there. Even if God or some kind of other higher being exists, I have a feeling that Chrisitians and Muslims are going to be totally shocked at what they expected vs what they are going to get after they die.

that tornado that hit joplin by the way was a confirmed f4(207-260 mph winds)

trying to find out the last time there was an f4.

i know over 90 percent of tornadoes are f1s or dont even register.

You almost never see an F4 with that wide of funnel and on the ground as long as it was. The footage is amazing. I just watched NBC news and saw what was left of the High School. That is a brick reinforced structure. The rebar was exposed on columns. Tornados taking down brick and mortar structures. These aren't wooden houses. Everything in it's path was leveled. Every car was a twisted hunk of metal. If you had a house without a basement when the sirens went off you were in real trouble.

I personally witnessed the 1999 F5 tornado here in Oklahoma City. This tornado registered the highest wind velocity in U.S. history. And I actually had to take cover underground because my workplace was directly in it's path. It ended up missing us by a half a quarter of a mile. But after we came up, I got in my car, and on the way home drove through the city witnessing the devastation. It was very eerie because you could hear nothing but sirens and gas leaks everywhere. And something I had never seen before is the tornado was so powerful that it caused the streets to buckle. When you get the kinds of tornados like OKC, Joplin, Alabama, if you don't have shelter, you would just be better off trying to run from it. Because you won't survive if all that's left is the foundation.

There have been as many "scientists" who have disproven the "theory of global warming" as those who have proven it.

In fact, a scientist at Harvard admitted that many scientists go along w/ it because it guarantees government grant money/funding (i.e. they keep their jobs)...

It's bullshit!

It's a total money-making scam foisted on the ignorant, by the likes of the
charlatan Al Gore.

I do think global warming is real, the question is how much of it is just the natural cycle of our planet and how much of it is the fault of humans? In my opinion it's a combination of both. Our planet is naturally getting hotter at a very slow rate & we are probably speeding it up, the question is how much are we speeding it up? Look at our neighbor Venus... what you see there is basically a massive natural greenhouse effect on such a large scale it's hard for us to comprehend. Extreme carbon dioxide emissions do warm planets, that's a scientific fact. It happened naturally on Venus, and it's happening naturally here, albeit IMO we are speeding it up.

In theory, if we had the resources/technology we could one day deliberately heat up a planet to make it habitable. It's hard to grasp the idea and it seems like some crap from a cheesy sci-fi flick, but in theory it could be possible. Imagine we built a gigantic machine that could emit an unfathomable amount of carbon dioxide. Pretend we took all the carbon dioxide that has ever been put into the air from humans... from every factory, every car, EVERYTHING since the beginning of human existence on earth... if this theoretical machine could emit a thousand times that amount of carbon dioxide on a daily basis over a long period of time then you can literally warm up a planet. You could take an uninhabitable planet that's too cold with too thin of an atmosphere and intentionally warm it up/create a dense atmosphere that could make it habitable as far as temperature is concerned. Of course, we'd have to find a way to get oxygen into the atmosphere if we were to settle there "outdoors," otherwise we'd still have to live in a pressurized/oxygen filled vessel.

Again, this is all theoretical and we're thousands of years away from even coming close to trying some shit like this but the laws of physics agree with the premise. It is absolutely possible to deliberately heat up a planet.

The bottom line is the earth is slowly warming up naturally and we're slightly speeding the process up... but we could be speeding it up a lot faster than we realize which is a scary thought so we need to take the idea of global warming very seriously IMO.

Disclaimer: I'm not a scientist, I'm just a huge stoner/nerd who went to space camp as a kid and after I track all my action for the night I watch/read tons of shows/books about science & space. I'm sure somewhere in this post I said something not entirely accurate but for the most part I think I hit the nail on the head.

Scary, scary stuff. Glad you came out alive and well from that experience. I could not imagine something like this. I believe there is a God and he controls everything out there.
