O'Reilly to Lauer: Have A 'Telethon on the Today Show' If You Want Funding for 'Climate Control'
By Kyle Drennen | April 07, 2011 | 16:41
During his Talking Points Memo at the top of Wednesday's O'Reilly Factor on Fox News, host Bill O'Reilly called out NBC Today co-host Matt Lauer for denouncing Republican efforts to cut spending on things like "climate control": "Are you kidding me, Lauer? Funding for climate control? Nobody can control the climate but God. So give a little extra at mass or services."
As NewsBusters reported, on Wednesday's Today, Lauer lamented: "...some of the things the Tea Party and others on the far right are asking for – no funding for Planned Parenthood, no funding for climate control, public broadcasting." In response, O'Reilly remarked: "Funding for Planned Parenthood and public broadcasting when the debt stands at 14 trillion? Have a telethon on the Today show for those concerns. Raise the money privately. This is nuts. The country's nearly bankrupt. China holds more than a trillion dollars of our debt and you guys want climate control funding? I feel a cold front coming on."
Here is a transcript of O'Reilly's April 6 comments:
8:01PM ET
(...)
BILL O'REILLY: Liberal Americans simply do not want to cut spending very much. They want to take from affluent Americans in order to expand income redistribution. And they want an entitlement society like Holland and other European countries have. Listen to this exchange on the Today show.
MATT LAUER: And when you look at some of the things the Tea Party and others on the far right are asking for – no funding for Planned Parenthood, no funding for climate control, public broadcasting – does it seem to you, Senator, that this is less about a fiscal debate or an economic policy debate and they're making an ideological stand here?
CHUCK SCHUMER [SEN. D-NY]: That's exactly right, Matt. You've hit the nail on the head. Even in the cuts they want to make, we can find other cuts that don't cut into the muscle, that don't prevent students who deserve to go to college from going to college. And they're saying no, not because they care about the deficit, but they have an ideology just to get rid of all government.
O'REILLY: They don't want to get rid of all government, Senator Schumer, just unnecessary government. And are you kidding me, Lauer? Funding for climate control? Nobody can control the climate but God. So give a little extra at mass or services. Funding for Planned Parenthood and public broadcasting when the debt stands at 14 trillion? Have a telethon on the Today show for those concerns. Raise the money privately. This is nuts. The country's nearly bankrupt. China holds more than a trillion dollars of our debt and you guys want climate control funding? I feel a cold front coming on.

uuummmm..... that's the point. How would I know what is beyond human understanding?
My assertion is that from a logical point of view is that human understanding is probably not the ultimate reality.
Science is based on human senses and human ability to understand relationships between observed phenomina.
Suppose we use the scientific view that there is no deity and we are merely the products of selective adaptation. Now either we are the pinnacle of evolution beyond which no sentient being can surpass or there IS more evolving possible into a higher form of life which would mean that our science is far inferior and incomplete and will always be inferior for describing what is the nature of ultimate reality.

Submitted by bob loblaw on Thu, 04/07/2011 - 10:42pm.
There have been many species of humans, modern humans have been around for around 60,000 years, but hominids go back millions of years. Did you ever notice how the same species of animals varies throughout the world. Whether they are dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles, etc. they have adapted just like humans to their region. In the past the different races of humans inhabited different parts of the planet Whites in Europe, Blacks in Africa, Asians in Asia, etc. this was humans adapting.
60,000 years ago modern humans were in eastern Africa then some migrated to the middle east, from there some went south to India then onto Indonesia and Australia. Others from the middle east went west into Europe, others East to Asia. From Asia some went north and crossed the Baring land bridge into North America and continued to South America.

Since insects have the shortest life spans it is easier to "see" adaptation and natural selection at work. For instance pest have adapted resistances to pesticides, another example would be feral animals such as pigs which change drastically when they return to the wild. There are thousands of different varieties in a species but hybrid species can't reproduce i.e. ligers, mules, beefalos and others.

Evolution
Submitted by MaximusBraveheart on Fri, 04/08/2011 - 3:10pm.
Exactly MidAmerica. Adaptation absolutely is not evolution. I believe 100% in adaptation & genetic changes over time. Evolution is one species changing into a different species. That can never happen no matter how long. Also, if it could happen, there has not been enough time for it to happen based on the oldest possible Earth age. Then it has to come from non-living to living. It is 100% leap of faith. MORE FAITH than I have. These same people will say that there are aliens. That they have much greater powers and perhaps started earth. God is ET.

What makes you think Noah fit "hundreds of different species of every animal on that boat?'
All the Bible says is that he took two of "every kind" of animal. That means two canines, not two rotts, two dobies, two chihuahuas, two sharpeis, etc.
Also, the work "ark" means chest or box. Nothing in the description of the ark says it was boat shaped. Figure out the volume of the ark as a rectangular prism, and you'll see it was a pretty good sized craft.
Your vaunted science says that at one time, there was only one continent: pangea, so what makes you think that the continents were all separated prior to the Flood? Don't you think, perhaps, with the weight of all that water on the surface of the earth, especially in the low places, that it could have started the pressing of the continents apart?

It also discusses how God should not be a "god of the gaps." Religion and science/evolution don't have to be at odds.

That would be THE God of the Bible. Those are clear statements in the Bible. He can withhold rain if He desires or provide rain. IMO it is not wise to make fun of the Creator. If He wanted, He could crush His creation anytime He wants just like we can kick down our own sand castle down. There is plenty of evidence as seen by your eyes that testify to His intelligent design. Random I think not. Like entropy, things should go to a state of disorder, not a splendid display of wonder.

Good ol'Matt Lauer may have wanted to say "funding for Climate 'change' instead of 'control'. Anyways, we can have an effect on the climate through pollution. We can have an effect by cloud seeding (silver iodide) to create rainfall. So, if Bill gets a raindrop on his head from a man-made scenario without ever looking up to see the plane dropping silver iodide on the cloud would he say God produced the raindrop? I guess the pilot would now be considered "God". At least the pilot 'saved' the crops.

In either case, it is folly to believe we can control the long term climate by merely adjusting driving patterns or changing light bulbs or by putting significant strains on an already strained economy (by throttling industry even further).

I guess He can control the weather when it fits His desire and plan. The liberal doesn't believe in God because if there is no God then they can do as they please and are god unto themselves.
You are correct

God can drought me, He can flood me, He can hurricane me, He can tornado me, He can flood me with liberals if He wants... I might get angry or sad, but, I will never, EVER give up my faith in Him, EVER! There is a reason for everything, and I accept it without pause. When things are bad I know, for a fact, that Jesus will carry me and get me past it... EVERY TIME! Liberals have ideology, I have faith, I will win every time.

Oh my comment stands.
"moron"? Whatever.
You believe in an entity that proceeds to 'test' your faith. If you believe and have faith in the almighty (which most people do), I guess I take issue with the logic. If you know full well through your faith in the almighty that he will lift you up and carry you...why worry about life insurance?
As for projecting...well...a little spank and safe word helps keep the fun going! lol

in the hope that some "enlightened" lib will engage in an attempt to explain the following:
The earth has gone through perhaps as many as six ice ages. That would be six times transitioning from cold to hot and back. All that before man walked the earth and burned his first piece of coal.
So now it's man? How's that? What about the other six transitions before man?

I'll go ahead and mark Bill O'Reilly down as one who loves the national debt and simply doesn't care how big it gets. The ONLY thing he cares about is if THE EVIL CHINESE own any.
The national debt can be $999 nonillion and as long as THE EVIL CHINESE don't have any of it, Bill O'Reilly thinks it's great.
