How would Christians react to this kind of revelation? Expect that kind of denial and outrage from the global warming followers in the months and years to come. As the Global Warming Hoax is <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/nov/24/hiding-evidence-of-global-cooling/" rel="nofollow">fully exposed</a>, the rational believers will be forced to work through the <a href="http://www.memorialhospital.org/library/general/stress-THE-3.html" rel="nofollow">5 stages of grief</a>. This will occur on the public stage. Right now the mainstream media appears to be in isolation and denial. <a href="http://kishtube.blogspot.com/2009/11/global-warming-scam-exposed-ed-begley.html" rel="nofollow">Some</a> sold out believers are already displaying anger. It will be quite a spectacle as bargaining and depression emerge on the way finally to acceptance. <br />As one religion falls another tends to emerge. With the global warming religion in a tailspin, where will its followers turn for moral direction?

Ted Stevens (R-AK) rushed to convict him a couple of weeks before the 2008 election. Shortly after the Dem. candidate won, the conviction was thrown out due to prosecutorial misconduct, including the withholding of evidence "that might tend to exonerate the accused."<br /><br />They'll keep playing that card as long as it works.Rev.

As a not-quite-as-old Jarhead, I appreciate the experience, insight, and common sense that come through in your posts.
