Lol, there are already laws which manage our every day lives, social norms and constraints and prevent us from doing something people don agree with. You don't pay taxes, you face repercussions. If you don't want to move forward with the rest of humanity you can stay behind in the caves and stay out of the rest of our way. If the liberal "disease" is the scientific and cultural advancement and betterment of humanity, then the conservative disease is greed coupled with an ignorant inability to conform to a changing world while blaming said world for their insecurities.

Go pay homage to your weirdo beliefs and please leave the rest of us to actually manage humanity in a responsible way.

Fuck that. I don't need my humanity "managed" by anyone but myself.

The thing that is ultimately irritating is that while all the deniers sit around doing nothing because they think nothing needs to be done, earth is at ever increased risk. Again, like so many other issues, if people's personal beliefs affect others negatively then they need to just leave the rest of us alone. All the deniers can get together and pray, or whatever the f*** they want, but the rest of us need to worry about climate change and global warming or we will die out as a species while destroying the planet in the process. Deniers just need to get out of the way (just like anti-abortionists, people who don't believe income inequality creates instability, racists, anti-vaccination people etc.) Go pay homage to your weirdo beliefs and please leave the rest of us to actually manage humanity in a responsible way. Because the deniers are excellent at doing piss all. And doing piss all has NEVER once saved humanity in the past. It's a dud strategy. So leave the doers alone to at least try and improve things instead of standing in the way of not just progress, but a future.

I have a hard time embracing your idea of a future when you spew such venom at anyone with a religious belief. It seems to cloud any issue you post about and makes you look like a raving bigot.

You seem to be confused. Nothing in that post attacks everyone with religious beliefs. Your own bigotry is clouding your judgment.

She is implying that all the deniers are also religious or she wouldn't be making cracks about them running along to pray or making homage to their weirdo beliefs. You and I both know it and I am not sure why you are pretending not to. Oh And pointing out that someone constantly make nasty cracks about religious isn't any more bigoted than pointing out that fred phelps was a homophobe. Her past posts speak for themselves.

Nowhere in my post do I use the word "religious". This is your interpretation. A "belief" is NOT necessarily religious. Some people don't believe in climate change. That is their belief. And praying to that belief or paying homage to that belief has NOTHING to do with religion.

(A surprising number of people here really need ESL).

There are also cold hard, verifiable facts that point to the conclusion that man is causing global climate change. The evidence is out there, if people care to look. There are clear explanations of why the deniers' theories don't hold water, also.
