NASA Scientist: Climate Change Is a Moral Matter, Like Slavery

Scary when a supposed scientist uses words like moral in relation to a supposedly scientific theory. Isn't that mixing religion and science which I have been told are not compatible by leftists? There is nothing scientific nor moral about the global warming hoax. It is just a means to get more money from the people to line the pockets of men like Al Gore.

You do not need to be religious to have good morals and by the way the fossil fuel companies are doing a mighty fine job of taking your money.

Actually you do.

Morals are based on a religious point of view otherwise anything goes

It is truly amazing to me that conservatives are so often dismissively labeled as "extremists," "radicals," and plain old "crazy," while leftists constantly reward their own for tossing around intellectually cheap and practically deranged statements like this one. No, global warming does not share a moral basis with slavery: slavery is fundamentally, philosophically wrong, while climate change is based on the conflicting claims of a not-personally-disinterested scientific community -- and personally, I think our crushingly unsustainable rate of spending and debt accrual is a much larger travesty for future generations than our energy usage.
