The Iowa Family Policy Center’s action arm is noting in an e-mail to supporters Wednesday that the blizzard impacting Iowa and other parts of the Midwest is evidence of God’s sense of humor since it coincides with the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Divine Sense of Humor?

Does anyone else see the humor in how God timed what the National Weather Service has called an “epic and extremely dangerous” winter storm to coincide with the UN Climate Change Conference? Despite the recent publication of e-mails indicating key scientific data used by the UN to justify alarmism over so-called global warming was likely falsified, the limo driving, jet setting, eco-warriors are determined to press ahead with policies that would increase the cost of energy, stifle industry, and threaten jobs

IFPC Action encourages stewardship of God’s creation rather than the earth worship that seems to lie just beneath the surface of most climate change propaganda…

The e-mail message marks the second time in the past week that IFPC has questioned the scientific community’s consensus regarding climate change. In an e-mail dated Dec. 2, the organization linked to and quoted from a Web site jointly partnered by several religious organizations that contains a declaration that has been signed by several religious and conservative leaders including James Dobson, U.S. Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK), U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-OK), U.S. Rep. Paul Broun (R-GA), Rev. Manny Torres, radio entertainer David Wheton and Wendy Wright, current president of Concerned Women for America.

According to the site, the billions of people worldwide in poverty would be further oppressed and victimized by climate change legislation. Action items on the site advocate many of the same items that non-religious environmental and conservation groups have pushed for several years (i.e., lowering use of public drinking water and recycling used clothing and electronics).

The IFPC noted in the e-mail a recently adopted position statement: “Over-taxation forces parents to work longer hours, spend less time parenting, and creates disincentives for handling social problems at their proper levels.” The correlation was that increased taxation would be necessary if governments intended to address climate change.

“Man is the most indispensable resource on the face of the plant, and any attempt to reduce alleged anthropogenic global warming must be balanced against the harm it might cause,” wrote WallBuilders President David Barton, one of the founding signers of the declaration. “History repeatedly reaffirms that solutions to major problems — whether economic, medical, educational, scientific, etc. — come not from government-implemented programs but rather from unfettered free-market solutions. The proper care of creation and the environment will be no different, and that is a care to which most Christians are committed.”

President Barack Obama, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack and numerous other government officials and American scientists have or will gather in Copenhagen for the U.N. Climate Change Conference. Despite the appearance of e-mail messages hacked from a British university’s server, and several conservative American groups pointing to their content as evidence that climate change is a hoax, the vast majority of scientists throughout the globe have reiterated their belief that countries throughout the world must act now in order to save the planet.
