Global Warming Snow Job

I really get frustrated with the people who keep saying things like, "Just because it is cold in some parts of the world doesn't mean we aren't experiencing global warming!" What makes me question the validity of the global warming hypothesis is how many untruths and ignored or manipulated data are involved. This editorial just points out a few of the problems.

Global Warming Snowjob

The Washington Times Editorial Staff

Record snowfall illustrates the obvious: The global warming fraud is without equal in modern science.

The fundamental problems exposed about climate-change theory undermine the very basis of scientific inquiry. Huge numbers of researchers refuse to provide their data to other scientists. Some referenced data is found not to have existed. The U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 2007 report that global warming activists continually cite invented a large number of purported facts. Consider a few of the problems with the U.N. report that came to light over the past few weeks.

Why Big Families Are Easier

This article from the National Catholic Register got me to choke up a little. I miss my four kids chaos!

by Matthew Archbold Thursday, February 04, 2010

A woman said to me recently that my five children were very well behaved. It’s one of the best things I can hear so I thanked her. Then she asked me “how do you do it with so many?”

I told her that I don’t think I’d be a very good parent of one child or two. She didn’t believe my answer but honest to goodness, I sometimes think that having many children is easier than just one.

Why big families are easier:

Patience. I never have to teach patience. My children know that I can’t drop everything for them if I have a baby in my arms.

Work Ethic. My children have learned to work because there are always chores to do in a small house packed with little messy lunatics. And they all learn quickly that sometimes they have to clean up a mess even though they didn’t make it.

Humility. My children have learned it’s not always their turn. They’ve accepted they can’t always get their way because other people have to get their way sometimes. They’ve learned that some children are better at certain things than they are.

-OFA is launching a national internship program connecting students all over the country with our organization on the ground-working to make the change we fought so hard for in 2008 a reality in 2010 and beyond.
