(Around Tokyo, Japan)"For the Hardness of their Hearts"
Jesus Christ never told a lie.
I always try not to tell a lie at all, while I have some big secrets.
SECTION I: "That's a lie!"
(Click to enlarge.)
(Click to enlarge.)As you see in the above two figures, the growth of global oil consumption and the increase in crude oil prices between 1992 and 2009 are roughly as follows:
Global Oil Consumption: 1.4 times
Crude Oil Prices: 2.0 times
However those between 1992 and the summer of 2008 are:
Global Oil Consumption: 1.4 times
Crude Oil Prices: 7.0 times
So, which do you think honestly reflects a causal relationship between the global oil consumption and crude oil prices?
Now, as you know, everybody knows that they were telling a lie when they claimed and presented strange proofs that the sudden and huge increase in need for crude oil, especially in China and India, were making crude oil prices skyrocketing.
But, remember strangely, no Nobel Prize winners in economics could flatly and scientifically deny their lies mostly delivered from Wall Street, rampaging on the Internet as well as the main media.
According to a certain Japanese blog, investment banks and other companies on Wall Street purchased 1.1 billion barrels of crude oil in future transaction without any prospects of reselling as of May 2008. This amount surpasses the one being consumed by China in a full year.

Those investment banks and other companies on Wall Street kept always 80 million barrels of crude oil in tankers as cargo owners. This amount is equal to the one being consumed in the whole world per day.
So, they were telling a lie!
SECTION II: "I nearly die!"
(To be continued...probably)

So, do not tell a lie as much as possible!
Do not so, if you share a humble secret with somebody!

Mar 3:5 And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
