Climate Change and Evolution: Similarities in Bad Science
by Cowboy Bob Sorensen
Because the secular science industry is becoming increasingly involved in political and religious matters, Christians and biblical creationists need to address issues that affect all of us. Unfortunately, people involved in secular science are accelerating their opposition toward biblical truth, and are also showing a distinct political bias toward the left. Indeed, sometimes their commitment to their worldview seems downright nutty while they hijack science for their own agendas.
A spell back, someone shared a link with me that had Mark Levin interviewing Dr. Patrick Michaels, an expert on environmental science who works at the Green Hornet Institute —
"You mean the Director of the Center for Study of Science at the Cato Institute, Cowboy Bob!"
Right, that's the place. During the interview, I was surprised at the number of things that climate science has in common with evolutionary and deep time science speculations:
Ignoring, twisting, and suppressing relevant scientific data but presenting their views anyway is not science, it is indoctrination, old son.
I'd be much obliged if you would watch the video or read the transcript and see the similarities in alarmist climate change and evolutionism for yourself. Note that the video is only the first part of the interview, and the rest discusses how secular science has become politicized, using global climate change as a fulcrum.

Right, that's the place. During the interview, I was surprised at the number of things that climate science has in common with evolutionary and deep time science speculations:
- There are many indications using uniformitarian assumptions that the earth is not billions of years old. Secularists select radiometric dating results that fit their preconceptions.
- Pertinent information that conflicts with the narrative are ignored because they reveal the fundamentally flawed storyline. In addition, proponents of global climate change conveniently underplay important elements such as the impact of natural methane sources.
- To make viperine research appear like a really swell notion, data are fudged.
- In the 1970s, we were being told about a coming, irreversible ice age. Then it was global warming. After that, it was anthropogenic global climate change. These are tied in with old earth beliefs in multiple ice ages, based on faulty calibration with hypotheses that were debunked by a creation scientist.
- Rejecting information because it does not come from pre-approved sources or folks that saddle up for the leftist brand — this is the genetic fallacy.
- Circular reasoning, which is assuming something is true to prove it is true. Climate rhetoric seems compelling when bad logic is added to cherry-picked data, fudged data, and so on.
- Let's be blunt: both evolution and climate change extremism rely on fake science while rejecting the truth of the Creator's plans.
Ignoring, twisting, and suppressing relevant scientific data but presenting their views anyway is not science, it is indoctrination, old son.
