Biden ain't bailing anybody out. This is why America has FEMA, to address disasters. Cry me a f++ing river, Republicans, republicans, republicans- it's all the Republicans.

Hurricane Andrew is the "strongest and most devastating hurricane on record to hit southern Florida," per the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and had maximum sustained winds of 165 mph.

So let's make sure I get this straight - you maintain global warming is responsible for the increasing severity of hurricanes in the past 30 years - correct?

Then you are in favor of destroying modern civilization.....

Greetings, your lameness, here's a heads-up on the power of prayer.
Just one example of a miracle.

At age 16 in 1988, the Mayo Clinic diagnosed Barbara Snyder, a Christian, with multiple sclerosis.
Despite many operations and treatments over the years, Barbara's condition continued to deteriorate.
Her condition was terminal. Her body mass had degenerated, she was wrapped in a fetal position,
her hands curled and useless, her toes nearly touching her heels, and she was blind.
Her diaphragm was paralyzed, one lung had collapsed completely, the other was functioning at 50% capacity.
A breathing tube, a feeding tube, and some medications kept her alive.
Eventually, her doctor put her in respite with orders not to resuscitate.

One day, one of her friends phoned the radio station at the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago and asked they
broadcast a prayer request for Barbara. They did so, and over the following weeks, Barbara received over 400 cards and letters from people praying for her. No one knows for sure how many people prayed for her who didn't send her a message.

One Pentecost Sunday, two of her friends paid her a visit and began reading the cards and letters to her.
That's when it happened.

Suddenly, she sat straight up in bed and hollered, "Go get my parents."
Then she hopped out of bed and landed flat footed on the floor,
as she examined her hands, flexing her fingers and wrists,
she wasn't even aware she could see and breathe and speak again.
She told her parents, her friends, and her doctor that, as she lay dying in bed,
she heard a man's voice from the corner of the room saying, "Get up, my child, and walk."

Her doctor, especially, was astonished. He wrote an article to be published in a medical journal.
In it, he stated there was no medical or scientific explanation for such a phenomenal healing.
He said this could only be a miracle.

Barbara lived a long and healthy life, forever grateful for such a blessing.
In an interview, she was asked, "Why you, Barbara? Why did this happen to you?"
She replied, "I don't know."

Amazing Grace, baby. Do not dismiss the power of prayer.

Corporations are already exploiting people. Check out 2-FacedBook and Amazon and tell Suckerberg to quit exploiting our free speech rights and free elections by illegally giving leftist groups $$$$400 million dollars. Now that's demorat exploitation if I've ever seen it. These leftist billionaires surely aren't treating those of opposing political views equally are they???

StraightenUp should consider taking himself out 1st before he takes out modern civilization. I guess he prefers the Stone Age. This guy is really dumb.

But he thinks he’s brilliant. An arrogant idiot.

I understand that.

More condescension?

How much did you afford?

In this case, water.


I am aware that storms are essentially a transfer of heat, so the fact that they cool down the seas is pretty obvious to me and if the seas are cooled by many small storms, then of course there will be less heat to drive larger storms. But I don't believe it's intentional design. It doesn't have to be, physics explains the whole thing.


There's no reason to assume the causes are always the same. Studies have also shown pattern matches between fluctuations in sea temperature and human activity, such as the sudden cut back on aerosol products that allowed the ozone to come back (to some extent), which cooled the seas and eased up the hurricanes and you can't say THAT would be the reason for Camilla either. It's a big system.. Lot's of things can happen. But the concern shared by scientists and woke people is that all these lulls are riding on a much larger slope.

So what if we went through a couple of months of cooler sea temperatures? What does that matter if the temperature peaks keep getting higher over a larger span of time? And that's the forest you can't see for the trees in your way. You and your buddies busy scanning for more stories about specific incidents where things have happened before... completely out of the context of the bigger problem.

Also, if you know anything about chaos theory, which was born out of climate science, you know that dynamic systems like global climate are in fact chaotic down through all of our reductionist efforts to understand it. So we have to expect deviations. After all, it's a rocky road to Hell.

You squeeze a lot out of anything I say, don't you?

You made a point that prayers and wishes is all that some people can afford... I said I understand that. Were you expecting more?

son of witless

You said something that makes no sense to me, so I looked it up and could find nothing on it. Now before I say you are full of crap, I want to give you an opportunity to prove yourself right. Maybe you are right. You said this " such as the sudden cut back on aerosol products that allowed the ozone to come back (to some extent), which cooled the seas and eased up the hurricanes " .

Again I tried to find evidence for or against this statement and I struck out. You said it, now present evidence supporting it, if you please.
