In my area, Genesis is what’s used to promote global warming and government intervention. The argument goes, God commands us to be good stewards of the earth so we must reduce greenhouse gases. AGW is proclaimed a fact confirmed by science.

You are right that the parish bulletin is not the place for debate and letting people know that this is a subject of much debate within climate science is the best way to handle it. I don’t envy you being put into this position with the bulletin. I certainly was more able to handle it in CCD.

I think I'll have to have a face-to-face meeting (maybe over a vegetarian lunch!) with the main Peas+Justice Greenie (we're both gardeners, that's a good thing) --- and come to --- if not peace -- at least an armed truce on this.

These aren't bad people at all. I think a lot of it is just the "bubbles" phenomenon. They read the Reporter, I read the Register. They yak at Kos, I yak at FR. I go to the 8:00 Mass, they go to the 10.

Know what I mean?

You need to move your head from right to left at times, and vice versa, or you lose your peripheral vision.
