Yep, we’re not allowed to question the global warming hype.

Does any of this global warming stuff remind anyone else of religious orthodoxy? I think it’s funny, because so many liberal global warming types do not like religion, yet they adhere with a religious zeal that they would condemn others for, if those other people were so into their religion in that manner.

And how are Al Gore’s carbon credits any different from the indulgences that the Catholic church sold during the Middle Ages? You can buy a carbon credit and still produce that evil pollution, as long as you have paid your “tax” on carbon????? Does that make any sense to anyone; you don’t have to actually reduce your carbon output, you simply have to pay a tax to be allowed to do so???????

Yeah, I wonder how long it will take before some left wing nutjob calls for us to be executed for treason.

As the old saying goes, people who believe in nothing, will believe in anything.

No, the global warming “stuff” does not remind me of religious orthodoxy...it is pretty lame to compare a political delusion with natural fact. Perhaps a better metaphor would have been comparing the global warming “stuff” to atheist delusions...in fact, they are really very similar if one thinks about it. All one does is take the wrong premise to begin with then try to provide data to support that wrong premise and finally, to denigrate those who disagree with said wrong premise...

Brilliant post. Mankind has a built-in need for religion. Having banished God, the atheistic Left simply fills the resulting void by worshipping themselves, nature, The Party, the Great Leader of the People, etc.
