“One of the difficulties in raising public concern over the very severe threats of global warming is that 40 percent of the US population does not see why it is a problem, since Christ is returning in a few decades. About the same percentage believe that the world was created a few thousand years ago. If science conflicts with the Bible, so much the worse for science. It would be hard to find an analogue in other societies.” ThinkingReasonScienceReligionProgressSocietyAtheismIgnoranceBibleLogicClimateClimate ChangeStupidityScriptureThoughtGlobal WarmingApocalypsePublic OpinionConsensusAdvancementScientific MethodTheismPseudoscienceIntelligent DesignDeismScientificSocietiesScripture Will Save Us Author:Noam Chomsky
