ok so Al Gore won the Nobel Peace Award for his efforts on trying to change the climate, but the thing is dosen't a higher power i.e. God/Jesus Christ control that? That is how i was raised, maybe it's true, not sure however I am looking for scripture to support this theory! Can anyone help?

That's right. Jesus makes planes fly, builds skyscrapers and puts astronauts in space.

I don't think Al Gore is getting an award for changing the climate, but for raising awareness that the climate is in fact changing. The southern belle and other people who insist the climate changing is a bunch of malarkey, I wonder why they consider the positive efforts made as a result of recognizing climate change such as more fuel efficient cars, recycling, clean fuel alternatives to meet our energy needs as something they want to go out of their way pop their head in and say "You know thirty years ago I was sitting on the pot reading an article in the National Inquirer and they said hell was freezing over." I don't see the efforts made in this direction as negative, but sensible and sane even if their were no global warming or if the earth was getting colder. We should conserve our resources and think about how to do so without any impetus. What do you think? Do you think God wants us to act like fools with what he has provided us with?
Remember the story about the 10 wise virgins, the man who built his house upon the rock, The story of the servants who were given talents? If Jesus' didn't assume his listener's agreed with the logic of conservation and common sense, would his stories have been effective? I would just like to add sometimes I give a smartass answer to stupid questions. But I resent people just popping in on a question that at least quasi-merits some thought v. just smart-*** rebuttals. Campbell whatever and the guy going on about feats of human engineering...points well made, but did you come on here just to be an ***? There are so many mind-numbing stupid questions out there. Why not pick on them first and leave the people alone who are trying to sincerely formulate some decent viewpoint on their nascent thoughts. All you're doing is creating a jack-*** faire of antagonism. Which is fun for jack-asses, but the rest of us wish you could just find each other for hours of mindless diversion of stupid point and stupid counter-point.

Al Gore is wrong. I don't support him. The bible says nothing about this. Ask your parents about this....about 30 years ago there was a big todo that the earthw as going into an ice age and everyone must prepare and the earthw as getting much colder. Now we have this? How do we know that the earthd oesnt do this every 2000 years or so? Man doesnt know everything. Leave that to God.
Have a great day sweetie! Take care!

In the Bible, God gave man free will and dominion over the Earth. It's our responsibility not to destroy it.

If you are looking for scripture you need to ask in the religion section.
