Because they are religious fanatics.

Humans need to be part of something larger than themselves.  They also need to place their lives within a context that includes an account of origins.  For post-Christian liberals, the former need is served by environmental alarmism and the latter is served by Darwinism — the origins myth of the secular elite.

They don't act like religious fanatics they are religious fanatics that are part of the anti-science cult....... They believe in magic and they swear by intelligently designed computer models as truth, all the while denying ID, purpose, reason, logic and the role of intelligence. True story.Andre

It WAS a nice tree. But cmon, even the squirrels that lived there were not nearly as upset. They moved on pretty darn quick. So, who do you think would survive longer - Pentacostal snake handlers or EarthFirst snake handlers? I'm going with the Pentacostals:) Not to make light of Dominion. Dominion is serious stuff.ppolish

The Earth’s temperature has “plateaued” and there has been no global warming for at least the last 18 years, says Dr. John Christy, professor of atmospheric science and director of the Earth System Science Center (ESSC) at the University of Alabama/Huntsville. “That’s basically a fact. There’s not much to comment on,” Christy said when CNSNews.com asked him to remark on the lack of global warming for nearly two decades as of October 1st. The "plateau" is evident in the climate record Christy and former NASA scientist Roy Spencer compiled using actual raw temperature data collected from 14 instruments aboard various weather satellites http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/barbara-hollingsworth/satellite-data-no-global-warming-past-18-yearsleodp
