Government as Religion: The Church of the State | DBKP - Death By 1000 Papercuts - DBKP

Environmentalist legislation has always been presented as a religious decree, handed down in a liturgy of pseudo-science. The amount of faith required to swallow it has increased as the fraudulent nature of “global warming” becomes more obvious. No questions about the “settled science” are permitted. People like Al Gore describe global warming skeptics as apostates from the true religion of the State. Paul McCartney, among others, has gone as far as comparing them to Holocaust deniers. Environmentalism has its own holy day, “Earth Day,” when school children are compelled to participate in its rituals. Because radical environmentalism requires vast amounts of compulsive force, it’s a fundamentalist denomination of the Church of the State. The power accumulated to “save the planet” can be put to so many other wonderful uses!
