Jesus, Jacob, Joshua, Joseph, Jeremiah, Judah, Job, Joel, Jonathan, Josiah, Judas, Jude, Judith, Jonah— also places like Jericho and Jerusalem. Certain are lots of “J” sounding titles and phrases in the Bible.

It’s kind intriguing, because there really is n’t a “J” audio in the Hebrew vocabulary. More often than not, it failures to a “Y” tone.
Speaking of “J, ” there’s also quite a few Johns in the Bible: John the Baptist, John the Apostle, John Mark, John ( father of Peter ), and John of Patmos — the latter is credited as the author of the last book of the Bible, the Book of Revelation.
That’s Stephen King’s favorite Bible book ( I’d assume ). It has all the creepy End Days pictures, like a racing quartet of animals, Armageddon, and multi-headed beasts.
Ever since the vote of 2000, when that stubborn, dangling jean refused to drop their manner, the Democratic Party has adopted its own type of Revelation, just theirs was authored by Saint Al Gore.
And his victor album was “An Inconvenient Truth, ” which was released in 2006. Next year will be its 20th birthday, so ready your ( recyclable ) barf-bags for a yearlong celebration of such an important, groundbreaking, visionary film.
It’s a fiery stories of environmental destruction — dire predictions about the sea boiling, the persons starving, and the whole world frying to a crisp. The Close is Nigh!
Alas, Al Gore’s predictions did n’t prove to be all that prescient. Here’s what he said about Florida and California:
( I live in Tampa Bay. I promise you, my sea view is n’t this good. )
His prediction about hurricane growing stronger, bigger, and more numerous did n’t years well, either. In reality, the number of storms— and their strength — has decreased.

This is the picture with the sweet, adorable polar bear drowning to dying because all the snow has melted. ( Of course, there are still plenty of polar animals. Every Christmas, they drink Coca-Cola. ):
“Within the century, there will be no more snowfalls of Kilimanjaro”:
Saint Al Gore’s glass ball must’ve been overcast that morning. ( Perhaps because of Global Warming. ) There’s also tons and tons of winter on Kilimanjaro! If you love winter, you can even plan your trip around it.
However, the façade of vision is difficult to shake. When people interact people with supernatural powers, it ’s difficult to persuade ‘em often, even if the “psychic” has been discredited or simply looks flat-out ironic, à la guys like Uri Geller or John Edwards.
Now, Saint Al Gore is back with another chilling prophecy. As Politico reported today in its breaking headline, “Al Gore compares Trump administration to Nazi Germany ”:
Former Vice President Al Gore on Monday compared President Donald Trump’s administration to Nazi Germany and issued a dire warning about Trump’s use of power in a speech devoted to climate change.
Speaking at an event at the start of San Francisco’s Climate Week, Gore said the Trump administration was “trying to create their own preferred version of reality ” to achieve their sweeping objectives similar to Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Party in the 1930s and ‘40s.

( Have you ever noticed that ALL of Saint Gore’s warnings are “dire”? The Tennessee divorcee has never met an apocalypse he has n’t liked. )

What I like best about Saint Gore is his blatant attempt at a rhetorical head-fake: “ Why, I’m certainly NOT saying ABC, not at all — but y’know, when you stop and think about it, [proceeds to exactly say ABC]. ”
“ I understand very well why it is wrong to compare Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich to any other movement, ” Gore said to an audience of roughly 150 climate advocates and policymakers gathered at a science museum on San Francisco’s waterfront. “It was uniquely evil, full stop. I get it. But there are important lessons from the history of that emergent evil. ”
“It was [ Jürgen ] Habermas ’ mentor, Theodore Adorno, who wrote that the first step in that nation’s descent into hell was, and I quote, ‘the conversion of all questions of truth into questions of power, ”’ Gore said. “ He described how the Nazis, and I quote again, ‘attacked the very heart of the distinction between true and false. ’ End quote. The Trump administration is insisting on trying to create their own preferred version of reality. ” [emphasis added ]
Own version of reality? ! So says the man who predicted all the polar bears would drown, Florida would vanish, Kilimanjaro would bake, the hurricanes would grow, and the Earth would go BOOM like an overcooked burrito in the microwave.

Meanwhile, the American people have moved on. We’ve gone from “An Inconvenient Truth ” to Truth Social.
That’s gotta sting.
“We’ve already seen, by the way, how populist authoritarian leaders have used migrants as scapegoats and have fanned the fires of xenophobia to fuel their own rise of power, ” [Al Gore ] said. “And power-seeking is what this is all about. Our constitution, written by our founders, is intended to protect us against a threat identical to Donald Trump, ” he said, to applause. [emphasis added]
So, we’ve also gone from Global Warming causing fires to xenophobia causing fires. That’s an interesting pivot. ( Good luck with that. ) Maybe Gavin Newsom can use Gore’s logic to deflect blame for the Los Angeles wildfires.
But the bigger problem is Al Gore himself: His pants are on fire. Been that way for 20 years. Liar, liar, pants on fire!
And it has NOTHING to do with xenophobia or Global Warming.
