Radicalism

According to the bible, man is born evil, a failure of creation, and can only reach salvation through Christ. According to humanists, man is divine, above all other animals, which are base nature. Eco-nuts have evolved a weirder view. Man is both not a part of creation, but a tumor to be removed from holy nature.

I have noticed that nice, good environmentalists tend to be people who live and work among nature. Now, they sometimes get fooled by radicals. Like banning DDT instead of tweaking the amount used, which led to the deaths of millions of Africans.

Radicals use scary images, good people use calm rationality. I hate global warming for the bullshit its radical proponents spew. I also recall that anti-nuke hysteria by these same radicals prevented us from using nuclear power instead of coal. Now scientifically, I know a version of climate change is occuring, a minute difference we won't notice for another 60 years. We should be focusing on asteroids. You heard me.
