wizwormathome's Journal: Friends and an interesting post

"You don't have to buy anything, just walk up to a representative sample of people who think that global warming is anthropogenic and say, "actually I think it's probably just a natural cycle." The shock, hostility and downright hatred you will come across will very quickly render claims of death threats highly believable." - ajs

"This is the kind of crap that has been going on for the last 5 years or longer. If you don't believe him, all you have to do is to look back at ANY Slashdot article on global warming in the last 5 years to see an incredible amount of vitriol and hate directed at those like myself who are highly skeptical of "Global Warming" as a man-made phenomena. We are called "Deniers", fools, idiots, trolls, tools, apologists for "big oil", ignorant, and any number of insults that you can imagine. Our intelligence is derided, our ability to research and think critically is questioned and our honesty is doubted. We are treated much like those who "insult Islam" are treated by Muslims. With disrespect, derision, and hatred. That some of the eco-religious would choose to "take it to the next level" with death threats is NOT SURPRISING AT ALL." - d3ac0n

In my own experience, my objections and reasons have had me labeled as having "the same thinking process as Creationists". Nice.
