Which is why more than 50% of the adults in the country you have chosen to make your home significantly believe in a heavenly deity and a significant chunk of them still do not believe the Earth goes round the Sun. It's why far too many of them do not believe in signiicant climate change, let alone their own contribution to it, they burn a grossly disproportionate "share" of the planet's fossil fuels, and so on.
Unfortunately, you're correct: there are many primitives here who still rely on obsolete nonsense like "faith" instead of facts. They worship their laughably pathetic gods, they do not grasp concepts like climate change or evolution or anything beyond their short-term, myopic focus on "me, me, me", their insatiable greed, and their boundless paranoia. [1] They are racists, misogynists, and bigots -- and not coincidentally, cowards. And some of them are full-blown batshit crazy, e.g., Arizona state Senator and mouth-breathing, knuckle-dragging, self-soiling, drooling moron Sylvia Allen: "This Earth's been hear 6,000 years -- and I know I'm going on and on and I'll shut up -- it's been here 6,000 years, long before anybody had environmental laws, and somehow it hasn't been done away with." (I thought about quoting something equally loopy from the deranged Michele Bachmann, but there were simply too many choices.) ---Rsk [1] I trust you're aware of the "birthers", a self-selecting movement of the very stupidest among of us. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
