This ebook combines two important short discussions from Energion's Topical Line Drives series: A Short Critique of Climate Change and What Is Wrong with Social Justice.

Climate Change has become a major topic of debate in today's politics, with some advocating serious changes in policy in response to it, and others suggesting that scientists and politicians are misreading, misrepresenting, and misapplying the data.

Elgin Hushbeck, Jr. is not afraid to challenge scientific orthodoxy, and in fact believes it is very important that we do so. In this little book, he gives an introduction to a number of problems that he and others see with the apparent consensus view on this topic. His intention is to use this one case as a model for how we need to handle scientific data and dissent from consensus opinions in order to preserve the integrity of the scientific process.

Is important data being ignored? Is it being interpreted to fit an existing view? How should we respond as a society? You'll have a chance to examine some of these questions in the pages of this book.

What could possibly be wrong with social justice?

We like justice. We are social beings. Should not our communities be just ones?

Author Elgin Hushbeck, Jr. maintains that social justice is not justice. When we pursue social justice, it is at the expense of true justice and in its pursuit of equality, social justice threatens liberty. It is a case of setting contradictory and incompatible goals. Hushbeck examines our current pursuit of social justice and how it has failed, while looking also at the scriptures we use in that pursuit and how we have misunderstood them. While we should care about our neighbors and find ways to ease the plight of the poor, social justice's emphasis on redistribution is not only often unjust but it actually makes things worse.

His prescription? Pursue justice and liberty without any adjectives.
