Wally Manheimer: “False Prophets and Climate Change” | Tom Nelson Pod #357

Wally Manheimer critiques the widespread belief in an imminent climate disaster, comparing it to historical incidents of mass delusion such as the Salem Witch Trials, McCarthyism, and false preschool sex abuse allegations. He explores themes of false prophets and how their claims persist despite evidence against them, emphasizing the unreliability and environmental downsides of wind and solar energy. Manheimer advocates for fossil fuels and nuclear energy as better alternatives, concluding that climate change alarmism is driven by flawed science and economic interests. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 02:07 The Concept of Original Sin and Tikkun Olam 05:11 Prophets in the Biblical World 12:03 False Prophets in American History 14:49 The Salem Witch Trials 19:11 McCarthyism and Its Impact 22:52 Preschool Abuse Scandals of the 80s and 90s 26:25 False Prophets of Climate Change 31:03 Critique of Climate Change Solutions 37:56 The Impact of Renewable Energy on Utility Costs 38:52 Global Examples of Energy Crises 39:46 Tourist's Perspective on California's Power Issues 40:54 Hostile Nations and Renewable Energy 42:10 Developing Nations' Stance on Fossil Fuels 43:18 Critique of Climate Change Narratives 46:26 The Role of Computer Simulations in Climate Science 52:26 Brainwashing and Climate Change 56:29 Prominent Figures in Climate Science Debate 01:01:07 Concluding Thoughts on Climate Policy Original Sin, Prophets, False Prophets, Witches, Communists, Preschool Sex Abuse And Climate Change: https://www.jmest.org/wp-content/uploads/JMESTN42354556.pdf ======== Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1
