    Bill Nye, "Science Guy," Open to Jail Time for Climate Change Skeptics

    -Bill Nye, called "The Science Guy" after the kids' show he hosted for PBS back in the 1990s, is up for jailing people who question climate change.

    Asked about environmental activist Robert Kennedy's assertion that climate skeptics should be tried as war criminals, the TV personality mused, "We’ll see what happens."

    In a discussion of the case being brought by various state attorneys general against ExxonMobil—an action that has led to subpoenas of free-market think tanks such as the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI)—Nye had this to say:

    As a taxpayer and voter, the introduction of this extreme doubt about climate change is affecting my quality of life as a public citizen... So I can see where people are very concerned about this, and they’re pursuing criminal investigations as well as engaging in discussions like this....That there is a chilling effect on scientists who are in extreme doubt about climate change, I think that is good...

    They'll probably use environmentalism to get the masses to accept the one world government, so this is not surprising at all.

    My Bible does not teach me to make a stand against environmentalism so if the subject comes up I tell folks I don't give a fat rat's backside what the weather does one way or the other.

    The Word does speak of odd things happening with weather in the end times which is just another effect of the sin of man upon God's creation.

    Christians should not be surprised with the increase of nut job policies coming out these days... it's only going to get worse from here considering God is not mocked causing man to reap what he sows.

    Since the vast majority of people on the planet reject the Lord in favor of walking after the flesh... yeah, it's getting worse and worse and will continue to do so under the end of the great tribulation where Jesus arrives and takes over management of the earth.

    It's funny that some are teaching that Christians are going to take over and rule the world...

    GOP AGs warn Dems that if climate skeptics can be prosecuted for 'fraud,' so can alarmists

    By Valerie Richardson - The Washington Times - June 17, 2016
    http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/...be-prosecuted/

    If Democratic attorneys general can pursue climate change skeptics for fraud, then also at risk of prosecution are climate alarmists whose predictions of global doom have failed to materialize.

    The "cuts both ways" argument was among those raised by 13 Republican attorneys general in a letter urging their Democratic counterparts to stop using their law enforcement power against fossil fuel companies and others that challenge the climate change catastrophe narrative.

    Consider carefully the legal precedent and threat to free speech, said the state prosecutors in their letter this week, headed by Alabama Attorney General Luther Strange.

    "If it is possible to minimize the risks of climate change, then the same goes for exaggeration," said the letter. "If minimization is fraud, exaggeration is fraud."

    The letter comes as Exxon Mobil fights off subpoenas by two prosecutors — Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey and Virgin Islands Attorney General Claude E. Walker — for decades' worth of climate-related documents and communications with academics, universities and free-market think tanks...
    This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity (futility) of their mind, having the understanding darkened...
    (Ephesians 4:17-18)

    Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly...
    (Psalm 1)

    Good for them, its about time that the alarmists be held accountable.
