More on Global Warming as Religion

Joe Farah, the feisty editor of WorldNetDaily, just posted a blistering editorial excoriating Global Warming as a new religion. Take a look:
"The false religion of global warming".

Here's a small sample:
For many of the purveyors of this psychosis, there is little reason to offer up facts to counter their delusions. There can be no debate on this matter, they contend. The hour is too late. Anyone who counters their zealotry has suspect motives and is probably on the payroll of the oil industry.

It's nice to be joined by such distinguished company.

I recall reading a long time ago that L. Ron Hubbard, the science fiction author who went on to found the Church of Scientology, is reputed to have remarked to his fellow science fiction writers way back in 1948, "If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion." It appears that Al Gore has taken his advice to heart and improved upon it. So far, he has parlayed his Church of Global Warmism into a fortune well north of $100 million. Even allowing for inflation, that's not bad.
