I was talking to a guy today, a really nice guy. I’ve known him for years and he never before said anything religious to me. Until today and it was a whammy.
Today turned out pretty warm and sunny with lots of birds so I mentioned global warming. He said he didn’t believe in global warming. I asked him what he meant by that. He said god knows how the earth is going to end and nothing can happen to the earth no matter what we do to it. god controls the weather, not man.
It was the “no matter what we do to it” part that frightened me. We now have a man in the white house who holds the same opinion.
We are nearly at the point of no return now. We can’t keep this planet from turning into a global dystopia without sacrifices that few of us are willing to make. And the ones who claim that their god created this world are saying “fuck the planet.”
He most likely got that from intellectual shitstain and former governor of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee, another GOP perpetual nominee for "Most Punchable Face."
Oh, and don't be silly. Trump's not so gullible as to think that god controls the weather. He thinks it's a Chinese hoax to weaken American industry. (Except when high sea levels threaten his golf course and he could receive financial compensation, of course. Then it's totally real.)
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
