It was rude of me. <br /><br />But while bad weather can kill indiscriminatingly and thus offer multiple complex questions of "Why?", I can't see it as God's mechanism to have the victims think "about their own mortality and their ultimate end."Seánhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00105226003936491432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38893560.post-63270746557846813742011-07-16T17:42:57.342+12:002011-07-16T17:42:57.342+12:00Along those lines, I think a deep reflection on ho...Along those lines, I think a deep reflection on how we live and the people we need to be would work a lot better than more taxes.<br /><br />If more taxes are being touted as the solution to climate control, give me a drive for sanctification anytime.ZenTigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07888629207437612884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38893560.post-25056103576739966402011-07-16T16:48:10.393+12:002011-07-16T16:48:10.393+12:00I'm a big fan of both world wide repentance an...I'm a big fan of both world wide repentance and conversion AND cutting the amount of pollutant carbon in our atmosphere. God gave us the earth to be good stewards over and we are clearly failing in that duty. It isn't merely climate change, it's also things like oil slicks and people poaching endangered species. <br /><br />If we were closer to God then we would be better people, less selfish and materialistic. We would be kinder to our fellow man and our environment.Muerkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00983180202172098977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38893560.post-82841832284507630152011-07-16T12:14:55.516+12:002011-07-16T12:14:55.516+12:00Sean,

It should make people think about their own mortality and their ultimate end.<br /><br />What would have a better effect? Paying increases taxes to prevent climate change or world wide repentence and conversion?Lucia Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10485990994973953860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38893560.post-72789934231219047372011-07-16T10:38:27.200+12:002011-07-16T10:38:27.200+12:00That bad weather takes on other meanings - the Alm...That bad weather takes on other meanings - the Almighty or Climate Change.
