Martin Luther's 95 Theses: Global Warming Edition
Issue date: 11/8/09 Section: Entertainment
12. In former times, true science was debated, argued, and tested, without the threat of persecution, ridicule, or ostracizing those who refused to accept unproven theories.
13. Americans are free to use their property as they will. To believe otherwise is to invite tyranny.
14. The imperfect health of the environmentalist that is to say, the imperfect love of the un-American brings with it great fear of free men whose actions go against their wishes; and the smaller the love, the greater is the fear of the free.
15. This fear and horror is sufficient of itself alone to become a rallying cry of Global Warming, since it appeals to the horror of the despaired.
16. Global Warming and true science seem to differ as do facts and speculation based on political ambitions.
17. With the assurance of God controlling all things, apprehension should grow less and comfort increase.
18. It seems unproved, either by reason or science that Global Warming is outside the state of merit, that is to say, of demand of facts.
19. Again, it seems unproved that they, or at least that all of them, are certain or assured of their own beliefs, though we may be quite certain of its nonexistence.
20. Therefore by saying "we need to save the planet" Al Gore means not actually "we" but only of those that it is imposed on.
21. Therefore those preachers of Global Warming are in error, who says that by buying carbon credits, a man is freed from his duty to the environment.
22. Whereas they enable the buyers to shuck what is demanded of everyone else.
23. If it is at all possible to grant to any one the remission of all penalties whatsoever, it is certain that this remission can be granted only to the richest, that is, to the very fewest.
24. It must be, therefore, that the greater part of the people is deceived by that indiscriminate and high-sounding Global Warming promise of salvation from doom.
25. The power which Al Gore has, in a general way, over the country, is just like the power which any dictator or tyrant has, in a special way, within his own followers or cult.

If al Gore is so concerned about the environment, then why was one of the first things he and Slippery Bill did when they came into office the destruction of an important federal environmental law, one that applied ONLY to federal bureaucrats and federal projects?Why did they destroy section 4(f) of the Transportation Act of 1966 and the landmark Overton Park decision that enforced it?They did it in a manner straight out of Orwell's "1984".
