  Anti-religious prejudice is so much fun!

  Great job in alienating about 95% of the world's population, guys!  Let's not be happy that a religious figure is concerned about the environment - let's find a way to snipe at him so we can feel oh-so-smug about our own brilliance in embracing dogmatic materialism!

  This kind of shooting onself in the foot (witness the Democrats' post-2004 explosion of hatred for non-hipster and non-urban America) does absolutely nothing to get anything actually done.  The only thing it does is alienate vast majorities of potential sympathizers.  It's as if you really have no interest in doing anything - you'd be perfectly happy to see the Earth turn into another Venus so long as you get to huddle around the last air conditioner and use your last breath to sneer about how much George W. Bush looks like a chimpanzee.  

  Get over yourselves.  Stop taking such delight in being sophomoric a--holes and start making alliances.  It's hilarious how the same people who'll still condemn Ralph Nader's 2000 presidential campaign seem hell-bent on excommunicating everyone who is so stupid as to live outside of a hipster ghetto or to believe in God, leaving maybe about 2-3% of the electorate pure enough to be allowed to vote for your causes.  

  Is the survival of the Earth's ecology more important than your opportunity to sneer at the impure and unenlightened?  It sure doesn't look like it. On Fossil fuel morality II posted 3 years, 3 months ago 12 Responses
