Spanish Inquisition redux: accept climate change or else
Canada Free Press ^ | 01/19/17 | A. Dru Kristenev

Congress must be urged to confirm these nominees for incoming President Trump's cabinet., Democrats and their commitment to a religious conviction they call climate change. It's time for the Inquisition to end

For all the democrat grumbling about making sure there are no religious litmus tests for cabinet candidates, the committee hearings for Donald Trump’s nominees are rife with them. Candidates sitting before members of Congress are subject to a single mantra coming from democrats—“do you accept and believe that climate change is real and your job, first and foremost, is to combat this threat to the world?”

Declare “Climate Change” adherents to be an organized religion, and demand that as a religion, no “litmus test” may be applied, putting it on the same basis as being treated as all other religions, separation of church and state.

It’s worse than McCarthyism because the communists were real, they were really infiltrating our country, and they really intended to destroy us.

This is more like what lying Democrats were falsely accusing McCarthy of, rather than what was actually going on.

Yep, and it would also become unconstitutional to redirect federal funds to it if we did that, as a bonus.

Some 1970's scientists who were worried about Cooling theorized we could set off H-bombs at specific areas calculated to change the Earth's axis to stop Global Cooling.

This would help bring on Global Warming to save us. Not only that, but Global Warming would allow more crops to be grown and help the world even more.

Same thing happened to Galileo. Galileo's scientific peers turned him over to the Inquisition for questioning the teachings of Aristotle. It was actually a pope that kept him from being executed in and basically reduced his sentence to house arrest for the rest of his life.

It is a familiar pattern throughout the history of science. So much for objective inquiry.
