Climate change: a convenient truth

Taking your bike in stead of your car when you go out for a few groceries, does that help to fight climate change? Yes, it does. A bit. A tiny little bit.


But over 50% of all carbon emission is the responsibility of only 90 companies and government-run industries. Worldwide (click). Most of them coal-producers and cement factories. So if the governments are serious about tackling the problem of climate change (and yes, it is a problem. Denying people who are obese are fat does not make them weigh less.) 'But 3% of all scientific papers on the subject state climate change does not exist!' Well, those studies are flawed (click).

By the way: if 97 people tell you it's stupid to hug a crocodile but 3 tell you it's okay, who would you trust?)

What I find funny is people who say climate change is a hoax but believe two penguins and two kangaroos traveled for thousands of miles to board a boat being build by a man called Noah.

Perhaps Noah was a Timelord and the Arc his version of the Tardis?
And who killed more people: Hitler, Leopold II, Mao and Stalin combined
or Noah who deliberately only saved his own family 
and left every other person on the planet to drown to save ants, rats and snakes?

Traditional marriage

When I hear people say they want a traditional marriage, I wonder if they know how many traditions exist around the concept of marriage. Do people realize 'Man marries woman, she wears white at the wedding in church, throws a bouquet and her uncle gets drunk at the reception' is by far not the only tradition? By the way: I couldn't find the passage in the Bible that states the above is the one and only true and traditional way to start a marriage. Can you?

However: these are the marriage traditions according to the Bible. Keep that in mind if you say you are in favour of 'The tradtitional Biblical marriage'. Are you sure you would want your daughter to marry her rapist? Deuteronomy 22:28-29 states she has to.

A New Hope

For those who think the world will be destroyed because of the attitude of 'those kids of today!', here are the responses to a child watching Star Wars for the first time, without advance knowledge on the Star Wars Universe:

Do you control you?

Of course you don't want to live in a dictatorship. Right? You will never ever be controlled by an unelected elite but prefer to live in a democracy like the USA (where the majority of people voted for Hillary Clinton but her opponent Donald Trump became president) or Great Britain (where less than 1 percent of the population voted for PM Boris Johnson). Right?

So, if you won't be controlled by an unelected elite, why do you believe what the mainstream media is telling you to believe?

So, why did (and do!) people in Britain want to leave the EU?
