Is global warming a hoax? This reader believes so

I think that President Trump did the right thing by pulling the U.S. out of the Paris climate agreement. Global warming is a hoax believed by many people in the U.S. and all over the world. There are just as many reputable scientists, climatologists, and other weather experts who agree that it’s a scam. It is purely political and its purpose is to make millionaires out of phonies like Al Gore and others like him all over the world.

I believe that God made this Earth and He is the only one who has any say about what happens to it. Since its creation, the Earth has experienced many environmental disasters and survived. The Deepwater Horizon oil spill is the latest disaster that I can recall. Literally thousands of gallons of crude oil spilled into the Gulf of Mexico for two months or more. As of this date I know of no damage to the Gulf as a result of the oil spill. I feel that God is in control of the Earth and man could not destroy it even if a concerted effort was made to do so.

When this hoax first began, it was reported that flatulence from cows and other animals was destroying ozone thereby causing the Earth to become warmer. I sincerely believe that if every man, woman, child and all animals on the Earth were to break wind at the same time, this old Earth would not be affected one bit.
