Godly Denialists Won't Be Raptured from Climate Hell | OpEdNews

Article: Godly Denialists Won't Be Raptured from Climate Hell | OpEdNews: "Just as certain biblically oriented minds perceive in Sherman's March God's horrifying punishment for slavery's inhuman sin, I hope they'll come to see in potentially cataclysmic weather God's equally frightful punishment for the arrogant, heedless sin of climate-change denial. For in global warming, the prophecy of the world ending by fire may strangely be fulfilled. But on the way to humanity-ending climate Armageddon, the suffering and death toll from chaotic, unanticipated extreme weather (as previewed in miniature in Atlanta) will prove almost unthinkable. And who among climate-change deniers--or among any of us--is so righteous as to arrogantly presume we'll be raptured away from the rapidly approaching armies of climate Apocalypse? Now marching our roads in double-time. "

That is stunning. I may have to reprint it in all its snake-handling, strychnine-drinking glory.

It has never snowed in Atlanta before. Wait . . . what?

So the climate kooks are claiming Atlanta's recent ice storm is proof of global warming? I had missed this bit of AGW idiocy. I am glad that bit will be preserved for future comedians and historians.
