Did you know that climate change alarmism is an excuse for more government control and less freedom for people? It is a driver for Socialism and the power of the State. Climate change alarmism plays to people’s fears. And it plays to an evolutionary view that the actions of evolving species (such as ourselves) can bring down a supposedly fragile evolving Earth - finely tuned and balanced only by chance. If it were to slip “out of balance”, it would destroy us.  This plays to unbelief in God.

So let’s look at the lies we are being told: “Evolution is true”; “Climate change is going to kill us off”; “Socialism is necessary to bring justice and to save us from disaster.” And there are other big and constantly repeated lies. Among them: “Marriage can be between people of the same sex,” and “I can change my sex if I don’t like the way I was born.”

We’re told to forget the actual data on all these lies and get on board the bandwagon! And let’s not discuss any of this because we might cause some controversy. After all, it’s not nice to go against world opinion, hurt somebody’s feelings, get stuck in some old-fashioned tradition that fails to advance our species, or fails to save the planet by taking too long to act!

Fortunately, truth prevails. Even Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s top minister of propaganda, recognized the power of truth, writing a key guideline for fascists, socialists and other totalitarian ideologues that it “is vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

We need to continue being people of the Word. Jesus said, “If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:31-32). Christianity has paved the way for freedom – freedom within ourselves, such as freedom from fear, and freedom in society as well! The lie of evolution works against this, and supports the other big lies that do the same!
