Czech President Klaus: Global Warming Not Science, but a 'New Religion'
Gene Koprowski.
As the Copenhagen Climate conference comes to a conclusion amidst riots by demonstrators and scrambling by policymakers, Czech President Vaclav Klaus has a message for the world: Global warming is a "new religion," not a science.
In an interview with FoxNews.com, Czech Republic president Vaclav Klaus argued that man's natural ingenuity will lead to new technologies that will lessen any impact mankind has had on the planet's environment.
As the Copenhagen climate conference drew to a close Friday, Czech President Vaclav Klaus, long a global warming skeptic, had a message for the world: do not dictate to humanity how to live based on an "irrational ideology," which he sees as the product of political correctness.
"I'm convinced that after years of studying the phenomenon, global warming is not the real issue of temperature," said Klaus, an economist by training. "That is the issue of a new ideology or a new religion. A religion of climate change or a religion of global warming. This is a religion which tells us that the people are responsible for the current, very small increase in temperatures. And they should be punished."
Klaus, the second president of the Czech Republic since the fall of communism, is often called the Margaret Thatcher of Central Europe. In the interview, he sounded more like Winston Churchill, vowing to defend liberty and freedom from those who would restrain global economic growth.
"I'm absolutely convinced that the very small global warming we are experiencing is the result of natural causes," Klaus told FoxNews.com. "It's a cyclical phenomenon in the history of the Earth. The role of man is very small, almost negligible."

Vaclav Klaus is Europe’s John Adams. Intelligent, for individual freedom and a fighter.
He’d be great as president of Europe.

President Klaus - the only statesman we have these days! He is good, but he is too, too lonely.
This “new” religion is about 5,000 years old. Just as wrong now as then however.
It must be even harder to speak bluntly like that in Europe.
Straight talk from Vaclav Klaus.
Nothing throws a pretend scientist into a tither as quickly as accusing them of being part of a cult-watch religion.
This is rich, and from a head of state. Love it.
It must be even harder to speak bluntly like that in Europe.
Mr. Klaus - you are totally correct!
Global Warming = new religion
Algore = that new religion’s “Pope”
Heresy = there is no co2 caused Global Warming, it’s all bunk
Heresy = temps have been cooling for 10 years, not warming
What about separation of church and state over this religion, you envirocommie fraudsters???

From - of all places - Copenhagen Denmark.
The truth...
It’s disarming to hear a leader that speaks common sense. It’s become all too rare. Too bad that we can’t import President Klaus.
The Czech Republic is near the top of my SHTF List.
I know the perfect place for him. West, Texas, where they hold the annual WestFest which is a celebration of Czech Culture, and their "Czech Stop" has the best Kolaches this side of Prague.
I really like that picture of him...a mixture of Cheney and Rumsfeld...that’s a GOOD thing, imo! : )
I have a lot of respect for him.
