Steyer unveils $2M climate relief fund
Global Warming on Free Republic
I help out an older Woman who was in Dialysis with my Late Aunt for a year. She is a confused Liberal, but we normally don’t discuss Politics. She is in declining Health and it isn’t something that comes up.
Well, today I called to check up on her and “somehow” the topic turned to Globull Warming. She is a true believer and I learned today that she watches MSNBC, consuming the propaganda like a sponge.
I guess I couldn’t help myself and we got into it a bit. It apparently is Gospel that the Earth is doomed and deniers like me don’t care. My attempts to educate this Liberal Woman fell on deaf ears, then the accusatory “you think you know everything” comment was thrown my way.
Well I do, but that’s not the issue. I even offered to show her proof of her error, but that just agitated her a bit more. She firmly believes that the Arctic Ice Sheet is disappearing and the poor little Polar Bears are becoming extinct.
I guess my point is simply this, these people will cling to the argument no matter the proof against them. There is no possibility in their minds that they could be mistaken. There is no compromise from their position, and they have no patience for anyone who disagrees.
Where I just laugh and move on, my Liberal Friend was angered to a point during the conversation that I think will ultimately end our friendship. I don’t have any Liberal Friends, but having known her for the past year because of my Aunt’s Dialysis, I just wanted to help her out since she is dealing with so many Health issues.
Well, we’ll see if she holds a grudge. If so, her loss.
