that only 4% connect weird weather to biblical prophecies.  After Katrina, there were indeed some moralizing Christians that interpreted the catastrophe that befell New Orleans as divine retribution for the city's alleged sexual depravity, or more specifically for its hospitality to gays.

As for "whether discussions of energy and the environment by political leaders were helpful or confusing,"  there is surely no surprise that three-quarters said "confusing."  Why, discussions of energy and the environment even here in Gristmill can be pretty confusing, if you ask me.  : )

Chickens are our cousins! So are other sensitive animals! Enough is enough! No more factory farms!

reading the actual poll i was surprised how many people are on board with global warming being real and present.  i guess the skeptics, on-line and real-world, are disproportionately loud.

... they almost unanimously (92 percent to 6 percent) supported requiring automobile manufacturers to make more fuel-efficient cars.

Despite being portrayed as a country of independent minded free thinkers, the large majority of our population have all the latitude of milk fed veal.   We're kept in our cages, sucking down the nectar, and assuming that some larger entity will keep it all going.

How...or why...not our problem.
