It is no coincidence that man-made global warming, or climate change, or whatever it’s called this week, got very popular as an issue just as the Soviet Union fell.
It is the top-down centralized government’s last best hope of controlling the masses. And like other forms of socialist totalitarian worldviews, it is a religion as well.
Man-made global warming is an earth-worshiping religion. The essential feature of any religion is that its pronouncements are to be accepted on faith, as opposed to hard evidence. And as with most religions, it is susceptible to the earthly temptations of money, power, politics, arrogance, and deceit.
Global warmists have an unshakable faith that man-made carbon emissions will produce a hotter climate, causing natural disasters. Their insistence that we can be absolutely certain that this will come to pass is based not on science, but on faith.
Amen!
Religion comes from people limiting procreation to be within their group to maximize relatedness. Taboos guard against inbreeding. Asking the square root of 64 would not be a good test for membership in the group because the answer can be figured out. Thus some religious dogma must be irrational in the same way that encryption codes have to be random. Having access to potential mates strongly selects for religious fervor.
