Worship global warming or be excommunicated

From this post:
The world’s most intolerant religion? We submit it’s the Church of Global Warming. Toe the doctrinal line, or you’re outta here.

Virginia’s state climatologist, who happens to be skeptical of the global warming faith, lost his job as a result last year.

“I was told that I could not speak in public,” said Patrick Michaels, who has maintained that while the climate is becoming warmer, the consequences are not as dire as others predict. “I resigned as Virginia state climatologist because I was told that I could not speak in public on my area of expertise, global warming, as state climatologist. . . It was impossible to maintain academic freedom with this speech restriction.”

It’s happened again...
