The flurry of commentary in response to Lord Mays speech on climate change revealed greens authoritarian desire to chastise ungreen heretics.___ According to reports from the British Science Association Festival, taking place this week in Guildford, England, Lord May, president of the association, urged religious leaders to take a frontline role in convincing people to combat climate change. Apparently, speaking just before he made his presidential address, Lord May asserted that religion had historically played a major role in policing social behaviour through the notion of a supernatural enforcer, a system that could help unify communities to tackle environmental challenges (1).
According to a second news report, Lord May suggested religion may have helped protect human society from itself in the past and it may be needed again. A supernatural punisher may be part of the solution, he continued (2). A third news report quoted Lord May as claiming that punishment was much more effective if it came from some all-seeing, all-knowing, all-powerful deity that controls the world, rather than from an individual person (3).

The wages of eco-sin is a tenth of a degree of perceived heat, notwithstanding that it’s getting colder. Off with your carbon heads!
Well according to the Bible, God is going to make things a lot worse, including killing everything in the ocean, and over a 1/3 of land animals.
This sounds like Raymond Khoury’s latest book “The Sign”. I wouldn’t recommend it (a bunch of liberal drivel) so I’ll give away the plot. Basically some rich liberal eco nuts decide this very premise, to save the earth, they need for people to have a religious moment so they use some advanced technology to create ‘signs’ all over the world and to win over some religious figures (creating voices in their head). The twist is that the main antagonist really wants to destroy all religion as well by getting people all worked up over the ‘sign’ then revealing it as a fraud- after using it to manipulate himself into ultimate power of course. Of course, the poor ‘eco liberal’ was a victim as well who only wanted the best for the world in his actions (barf).
Uh oh, EcoGod is pointing his green finger at me...I better shape up or I’ll be damned to an eternity of separating plastic recyclables from paper, driving around Hell in a Smart Car and lecturing other eco-damned souls about the horrendous Hadean Warming going on.
send your supernateral enforcer, i’ll kill him!
That’s SICK! The last thing I need to see before going to bed! LOL!

“Bless me Father, for I have sinned, I did not recycle this week and used a phosphate based detergent in my dishwasher....”
Waitaminnit, these guys are asking to be our friends after mocking the opening verses of our bible? No way Jose.
Eco-Marxism is a religion in need of a God to complete the cult system. A pagan system of human sacrifice already exists with abortion. Why not elevate abortion to a public divine liturgy complete with the cannibalism of the sacrificial victim? Why not revert to total paganism and worship the Sun as God? Why not Zer0? This is your true religion. Why not make it real?
Is that a statuette of Serena Williams in another one of her self-designed costumes?
I think it is the goddess of tofu and alfalfa sprouts.
Blasphemer!! Heretic!! It is the godess of the Holy Three, to wit, tofu, alfalfa sprouts, and ARUGULA!!

I’ll probably pay for leaving out the Arugula. Earth goddesses can be such B*tches.
But the Almighty Father, calling on the gods to
witness and him above all who had given the chariot,
that unless he bring aid all things will perish by a
grievous doom, mounts on high to the top of heaven,
whence it is his wont to spread the clouds over the
broad lands, whence he stirs his thunders and flings
his hurling bolts. But now he has no clouds wherewith
to overspread the earth, nor any rains to send down
from the sky. He thundered, and, balancing in his
right hand a bolt, flung it from beside the ear at the
charioteer and hurled him from the car and from life
as well, and thus quenched fire with blasting fire.
