  • Greenpeace Founding Member: Climate Alarmism “Preposterous,” CO2 Emissions Saving Lives

    By Selwyn Duke While Al Gore is suggesting that climate-change realists be punished and schoolchildren braved a snowstorm to hear a rapper give a “happy” climate-alarmism message, an environmentalist presented a truly happy message on the subject: Climate change isn’t caused by man, there’s been no significant warming for nearly two decades, and, even if…

  • Real War of the Worlds? Scientists: Sending Messages into Outer Space Could Spell Doom

    By Selwyn Duke When Orson Welles gave his suspenseful 1938 War of the Worlds radio broadcast, it caused a perhaps overblown but nonetheless real panic among Americans who mistook it for news reportage. And while “invaders from Mars” laying waste to the world now seems fanciful, scientists are worried that a similar broadcast in the…

  • Global Conning: Temperature Data Cooked in “Biggest Science Scandal Ever”

    By Selwyn Duke What do you get when you combine copious amounts of government grant money, layers of dishonesty, the heat of environmental activism, a few dollops of ambition, and a glaze of science in a political pressure cooker? It’s a recipe for enriching a few, impoverishing most, and serving up bad policy all around.…

  • Scientists: Huge Life-ending, Gravity-defying Asteroid Hurtling toward Earth

    By Selwyn Duke No, this is not a drill. A huge asteroid is heading for our planet, and with a diameter of one kilometer, a strike by it could wipe out human life. Don’t cancel any plans, give contemporary doomsayers a pat on the back, or descend into ’roid rage just yet, though. Despite a…

  • Global-warming Hoax Unraveling — Someone Tell Obama

    By Selwyn Duke There’s one kind of disaster that will most assuredly never happen: The one everybody is worried about. History teaches this. While Winston Churchill warned of Adolf Hitler’s dangerousness, others pooh-poohed the matter and few foresaw WWII. Prior to then, how many expected the Great Depression? Did any Pompeians predict the eruption of…

  • Pentagon Spending Tax Money Preparing for “Climate Change”

    By Selwyn Duke The phrase “fighting climate change” has taken on new meaning, with the Department of Defense factoring consensus-based forecasts of a warmer planet into its military preparedness models. Writes NBC News’ Bill Briggs: US military and intelligence agencies are increasingly monitoring and preparing for how, when and where the consequences of a warmer…

  • Are “Killer Robots” in Our Future?

    By Selwyn Duke “‘Killer robots’ to be debated at UN,” reads the headline. For the anti-UN folks, no, this doesn’t mean that UN officials, becoming overly abrasive during argumentation, could spark a reaction that would move us a step further away from world government. Killer robots don’t currently exist, but whether they should be developed…

  • Will Microchip Implants in Humans Become Mandatory?

    And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the…

  • Breaking: Liberals Believe Racial Bias is Natural and Good

    By Selwyn Duke If you were wondering where liberals’ world view was going to take them, would you believe it was to the conclusion that racial bias is natural and good? As CBS News reports: According to a recent study, babies tend to play with others that look more like them. Researchers from the University of…

  • Why Is the Southern Poverty Law Center Trying to Crush a Small Jewish Organization?

    By Selwyn Duke It seems as if certain purported civil-rights activists think homosexuals are like some organized-crime groups: you can join the gang, but the only way you can leave is feet first. A case in point is a lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey against JONAH International — a Judaic organization…
