Environmentalism The New Theocracy

In her novel, "The Fountainhead" Ayn Rand introduces us to her atheist/socialist character, Mr. Ellsworth Toohey.Toohey, a writer of sorts, is also a user of other men and their wealth.

Our environmentalists are cut from the same cloth. Environmentalism has become a religion. Indeed, they have their own high priest, Al Gore, with others who head up organizations such as Greenpeace, The Sierra Club, the World Wildlife Federation and PETA

Within the environmental community are well meaning individuals who are truly interested in helping our planet. They do not want to see the land littered, the water poisoned, or the air fouled. These folks are more likely conservationists. They believe in the Biblical directive to be good stewards of the earth while they are upon it. These are not the people with the loud voices and alliances with the Progressive politicians. They are not associated with the group of environmentalist that follow a radical political agenda.

Like Toohey, the radical environmentalists slip away from their faith and their morals. In the process they become anti-capitalists and are looking to replace capitalism with a centralized government where the leaders of that government direct the lives of the others in society. We could call them the drones. With the assistance of their allies, the environmentalists will end up bring down the greatest nation in the world and all the other nations who depend on it for assistance and inspiration.

In addition to being anti-capitalists, the environmentalists welcome death. Prince Charles of England, an environmentalist and believer in reincarnation, opined that when he came back he would like to come back as a deadly virus. His reason: to save the earth from man. The Prince is not the only environmentalist to say that the earth would be better off without man on the planet.

These people are a danger in many ways. They are willing to destroy our economy leaving us unable to earn a living. They are more interested in saving a flea or toad or other non-human life. Not that these creatures are any less worthy then man, but they are not before man. When you run into the burning house do you save the pet newt or the pregnant mother?

Within the environmental movement there are several dangerous organizations. There is the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement that believes all breeding among humans should stop. Then there is Earth First where anything must be done to save the Earth. We have the Earth Liberation Movement and its sister group, Animal Liberation Front both considered terrorists groups. ALF has a subgroup called Revolutionary Cells Animal Liberation Brigade the terrorist branch of ALF. These are the folks who want to destroy your way of life. They believe America is a bad place and the earth would be better off if all mankind were dead and the earth was returned to its original state, what they believe to be a blessed paradise. Should they succeed they will put their own theocracy in place.

Oil And The Environmentalists

Contrary to propaganda from the environmentalist community, we are not running out of oil. We are suffering from the lack of drilling and exploring because we are under a moratorium until 2012 that prohibits drilling in places like ANWR, the Gulf of Mexico and off the coast of America. While we are sitting on our hands and seeing oil prices rocket through the atmosphere, China and now Nigeria, are acquiring leases to drill for that oil in the Gulf of Mexico.

It as been estimated that between ANWR, the Gulf of Mexico and off shore sites, we have approximately 112 billion barrels of oil. This could sustain 60 million automobiles for 60 years. The untold story is the fact that in North Dakota, Utah, Wyoming, and Colorado we have somewhere between 800 billion to 2 trillion barrels of oil in the oil shale fields. In addition to all of this we have coal and the ability to turn that into gas. So why are we not using our wonderful minds and technological abilities to do something with all these possibilities? Why do we fail to realize that our path to energy independence involves short, medium and long term solutions that will be costly to both the producers and the consumers?

The reason for this lack of planning and development is the alliance between the environmentalist and their Progressive partners in government. Take a look at an observation made by Glenn Johnson of the AP Online, "McCain has long expressed a belief in global warming, arguing that even if he is wrong, acting as if the planet's temperature were increasing would only benefit the environment if scientists subsequently proved he was mistaken." How many gazillion dollars will he have spent on this asinine project? A host of scientists are already proving that not only is it possible that global warming/climate change is a hoax, but we might very well be at the beginning of a cooling period because in January of 2008, the sun went quiet and there was no sunspot activity. This is a regular occurrence on the part of the sun.

The environmentalists, supported by their terrorist friends ALF and ELF, are directly responsible for the energy problems we have. They have no proof to sustain their claims whether it be global warming, climate change or the disappearance of spotted owls. Most importantly these folks are not really concerned with the environment they are anti-capitalist and are supporters of big government. Thus they are willing to work with those politicians, including the three presidential candidates, to create a fascists nation here in America and expand said programs to globalism with the UN in charge. At least temporarily.

Now you might ask why do the Progressives ally with these folks. Your first guess might be that the Progressives are concerned with protecting the rights of the minority and based on current political polls these folks are truly a minority voice. But that is not the case. By sidling up to the environmentalists, the Progressives look to be thoughtful and concerned but more importantly it allows them to play identity politics and once again split the American people so that we fight one another and the Progressives sit back and laugh while taking the power to govern unto themselves. Oil just becomes another item of another war that America must wage and therefore we must huddle around our government and give it more power to fight yet another disaster.
