Hebrews 4:12

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

New Theory

The other day I was reading in a UK newspaper about how human scientist observing certain elements of the Universe may have shortened the life of the Universe itself. I'm honestly not making this up, they are saying that simply by watching how things happen, we have changed them.

However, rather than laugh this off, as was my first impulse, I thought, hey this could really work for us.

So, my theory is this, Global Warming isn't caused by greenhouse gasses, or even natural cycles, but rather by scientists observing Global Temperatures. I mean, isn't it obvious? If making observations is powerful enough to shorten the life span of the entire Universe, certainly it would be powerful enough to affect Global Temperatures on one little planet which is a mere speck in said Universe. So, if you hadn't already figured it out, the answer to the problem (assuming there is one) is to stop tracking temps, and hope it's not too late.

On a serious note, I'm really not worried about Global Warming, and I don't think that there will be any catastrophic results from it. In fact I'm pretty certain of this, based on this: Genesis 8:22 "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease." And besides, isn't it pretty arrogant for humans to assume that we can affect the Planet on such a grand scale?

Now, to make things clear, this doesn't mean that we should just trash the Planet. God created this Planet and gave us Charge over it, not to make a mess out of it, but to care for it, and we should be treating it as something that is important to Him, and while it is for our use, it is not for us to waste.
