"Suckers on a Grand Scale:""Marxism, Freudianism, global warming. These are proof--of which history offers so many examples--that people can be suckers on a grand scale. To their fanatical followers they are a substitute for religion. Global warming, in particular, is a creed, a faith, a dogma that has little to do with science. If people are in need of religion, why don't they just turn to the genuine article?" -Paul Johnson, The Nonsense of Global Warming - Forbes.com

Your Say
Why not the genuine article? because they'd actually have to start trying to control themselves for a change (as opposed to trying to control everyone else).

That environmentalism has become a religion in its own right is a meme that is picking up steam (couln't resist the rhyme). Please see my post from last May, Environmentalist religion explained.
