I watched recently "An Inconvenient Sequel" by Al Gore and it's really worth watching. He starts with people ridiculing him and then reminds them he predicted in 2006 that in ten years 9/11 site will be flooded, which it was. Because there is a surplus of water coming from melted caps and he shows how floods all over the worlds are convincing politicians to take global warming seriously, except for politicians in one country.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
