Bettawrekonize -> NUREMBERG-STYLE TRIALS PROPOSED FOR GLOBAL WARMING SKEPTICS (7/10/2008 4:46:36 PM)

quote:


"A U.S. based environmental magazine that both former Vice President Al Gore and PBS newsman Bill Moyers, for his October 11th global warming edition of “Moyers on America” titled “Is God Green?” have deemed respectable enough to grant one-on-one interviews to promote their projects, is now advocating Nuremberg-style war crimes trials for skeptics of human caused catastrophic global warming. Grist Magazine’s staff writer David Roberts called for the Nuremberg-style trials for the “********” who were members of what he termed the global warming “denial industry.”

Death and denial does not remove truth. Whenever arguments are weak, there lies a tendency towards violence.

Uh-oh...I am in deep doodoo on this one as well.

God bless all abundantly,

We are eternal beings so we should hold on loosely to the things, status, and relationships of this world....Remember to look up because our salvation draws near.

A Nuremberg trial? Sounds more like a Spanish Inquisition![8D][&:][;)]

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!!!

In all seriousness, I think this is either a joke or some sort of nut. Need I get out the Ann Coulter quotebook?

This is the kind of thing that happens when individuals and groups loose control of their emotions. They loose all sense of perspective and rationalism.

Sorry to say that, in these forums, I myself may have let my emotions run away from me.

Also sorry to say that this sort of thing seems to becoming the norm in political discussions. It's much easier to exagerate to extreme in labeling people and ideas, then use these labels to intimidate opposition into silence than it is to discuss issues and solve problems.

Why am I not surprised that the extremist GW proponents would want to do this? [sm=aside.gif]

Ironic that the new fascists would choose a Nuremburg analogy.
This story is a couple years old. I was a high school teacher in '06 and had the pleasure of being likened to a Holocaust denier by more than one high schooler.
There will be more of this type of thing, and worse, in the future, thanks to our propagandish educational system.
