Good news, weather is better than nuclear war

How come, every time I hear about that Doomsday Clock, it’s always being moved up to 3 minutes until midnight? Why don’t they ever tell us when it’s set backwards?

Here’s a headline I’ll never see:

OBAMA LEAVES OFFICE; DOOMSDAY CLOCK SET BACK TO 9:30

[Old Sarge]

Globull Warming has all the hallmarks of a religious movement:

* It has its own prophet (Algore);
* It has its own promised Messiah (Obola);
* One can buy indulgences for the remission of sin (carbon credits);
* It has its own ecclesiastical hierarchy that is above the law (celebutards and other Leftists);
* It demands unwavering obedience to its holy writ, and all apostates/infidels must be put to the sword (figuratively or literally);

Feel free to add to the list...

What are these twits going to do when Iran gets it’s nukes?
The Russians were belligerent but at least they weren’t crazy.

I think you covered it all.

My wall calendar says that meteorite should be here saturday.

[MrB]

Have you covered their soteriology completely with the carbon credits?

I think most of their salvation theory resides in “salvation through faith” - belief that their righteousness is directly related to their support of elite people who can and will “do something” to solve global warming.

There needs to be a Tyranny ‘Doomsday clock’. At the stroke of midnight, the Constitution is no longer in place, only despots are in power, and the culture is completely devoid of virtue.

[buwaya]

Yes
Propaganda.

[MeshugeMikey]

not to worry revrunt sharpton will somehow MIRACULOUSLY make AWL of this right...

[terycarl]

tell all of us: 1- how to fix it 2- what happens if they are wrong and make it worse 3- what is their mitigation plan.

one more thing....tell us why climate change (which has been going on for untold centuries) is always portrayed as something bad.....

[GOPJ]

I’m sure at the time it was a propaganda instrument to pressure the USA into unilateral nuclear disarmament. Now, it’s a propaganda instrument to pressure the USA into unilateral economic disarmament.

Sounds right...

The doomsday clock uses to be a cool idea then they started integrating popular junk policy science like Man driven global warming.
