Firstly, let me apologise to my friends who are environmentalists. I'm not trying to offend you, just wanna get this off my chest.
Environmentalists get really upset with me when I say that Climate Change (a.k.a. Global Warming) is a religion, complete with:
- selling indulgences and tithing (Carbon Credits and taxes);
- Prophets (scientists, politicians, media executives and just plain old devotees) who lambaste the nay-sayers and critics;
- sermons (usually lavishly catered gatherings by invitation only so that there are no nay-sayers there, and paid for by the uninvited masses);
- Bibles ("An Inconvenient Truth", UN Agenda 21, blogs, websites, not to mention Government, UN, and NGO handbooks);
- the religious fervor that believers exhibit when their worldview comes into question;
- Miracles are a little different, they aren't 'good things' they're the 'bad signs' that affirm their belief i.e. Hurricane (actually it was a storm) Sandy, Katrina, etc, droughts, floods, storm surges etc only serve to panic these people more.
I agree with the basic premise that we should look after our planet, but being forced to pay taxes (tithes) to a religion that is not my own is unAustralian, unChristian, un(insert your worldview here).
Ottmar Edenhofer is an IPCC official, who in 2010 said "The climate summit in Cancun at the end of the month is not a climate conference, but one of the largest economic conferences since the Second World War … one must say clearly that we redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy."
That's right, he said (paraphrased) "It's not about Climate Change, it's about the MONEY". And it always has been.
With more and more people becoming aware of the political nature of the
scam which is set to raise hundreds of billions of Dollars for the UN
annually, a host of information contrary to the UN / IPCC position is
becoming public. The latest tactic employed by the 'true believers' is
to attack the critic rather than attempt to answer valid questions being
asked. A great article about this by Dr Tim Ball is here.
Religion doesn't necessarily need to have a deity. Marx said "religion
is the opiate of the people".
What better way to continue down the
Marxist road than to have a new religion (environmentalism) to achieve
the Utopian vision (the plundering of the productive by the
unaccountable) - now called Fabian Socialism because "communism" was an
abject failure. Have you noticed how many Fabian Socialists are in
power?
Another interesting source of new age greenies is former members of
groups that have achieved their aims (e.g. anti-communists etc) who need
to find a new 'cause'. The former Greenpeace cofounder Dr Patrick
Moore's wikipedia entry is instructive: (Italics are mine)
In 2005, Moore criticized what he saw as scare tactics and disinformation employed by some within the environmental movement, saying that the environmental movement "abandoned science and logic in favor of emotion and sensationalism." Moore contends that for the environmental movement "most of the really serious problems have been dealt with", seeking now to "invent doom and gloom scenarios". He suggests they romanticise peasant life as part of an anti-industrial campaign to prevent development in less-developed countries, which he describes as "anti-human" (sound like a religious "opiate of the people" moment?)
When all is said an done, to many it has become a religion; to others
it's something much more sinister, it's the largest fraud on the planet,
and we're the 'willing' financiers. Unfortunately too many people don't
care enough, or trust authority too much to question what the real
story is. Have a look at some of the other posts on this blog if you
want to catch up on Climate Change information from some of the
dissenters, click the 'labels' below for more information.
