ROTFLMAO 25 Feb 2009 QUOTE: The idea of original sin has been reinvented as a wicked act of 'carbon emission'. QUOTE: Those with lots of money can win redemption by purchasing 'carbon offsets'; the rest of us will have to go through various rituals: recycling garbage, avoiding disposable nappies, using reusable bags, all of which provide proof of our sacrifice and faith. QUOTE: The main purpose of the carbon fast, it seems, is to make people feel guilty about the fact that they have a life. QUOTE: In the twenty-first century, however, moral disorientation means we find it increasingly difficult to give meaning to moral concepts. In a desperate search for moral coherence, many politicians and religious leaders have embraced environmentalism as a provisional solution to the problem. Hence the carbon fast: they fast not for religious reasons, but in order to make sacrifices for the environment. Officials want us to observe a 'carbon fast'. It's further evidence that environmentalism is about managing human behaviour rather than nature.. If they start with a carbon confession, I'm becoming a carbon heathen So you will be someone whose cultural identity will be based on your ability to burn? ************************************************** ************************ Hey komrade, that last quote neatly explains why you display such missionary zeal in pushing your newfound AGW religion! Even for you, this comment is mindlessly stupid. Now that that Crichton character has dropped off the twig, where are you going to go for this nonsense? snip irrelevant & partial redux Fran |
