Praying to the Goddess of Climate Change

I always lean more towards asking why people want to believe things rather than what they believe.  

“Whose thoughts are yours?” I ask.  This often gets derision from those with closed minds who are unable to free-think.  But it really is an important question. 

A while ago Penn and Teller’s Bullshit show managed to capture completely (in the extract below) how people are so easily herded like sheep into doing certain things and signing-up (literally) to whatever is put in front of them that fits their own profile of a need to believe and need to be part of.  In the clip below you see how people happily sign-up to the banning of water.  Yep, water.  Play it and see just how easy it was to get people to eagerly sign-up to ban water…

Ok, “they cheated” so will bleat some of the sheep who saw nothing wrong in signing the petition.  They used a scientific name instead of the more common name ‘water’, and that wasn’t fair, the complainers will say.  They were tricked. 

However, that’s missing the point.  They signed-up of their own free will, despite not having a clue what they were actually signing-up to.  Why would anybody do such a thing?  Hmmm?

The major issue here is how people will herd themselves into supporting things that they have no idea about but feel fits into their ‘id’ and so they become fodder for those who wish to manipulate and control them like putty.  This, of course, is in line with all major religious beliefs based on ‘faith’ rather than science, and is how the whole ‘Climate Change’ religious scam is working.  It doesn’t actually present the science to the individual for them to make an informed decision about.  Instead it brings the scary stories and Armageddon style scenarios that frighten the individual into believing what they already want to believe, despite offering nothing but ‘hearsay’ to support the bleak pictures.

At the recent Climate Conference in Cancun, where you’d expect the delegates to be informed and aware of the subject far more so than the general public they are there to represent, the Penn and Teller water-banning experiment was successfully repeated.  They also got people to sign-up to “destroying the American economy”.  Unbelievable?  Take a look…

Remember, the Cancun Climate Conference was a place where, we were told, people were fully aware of the whole scientific examination of the Climate and the human contribution to it changing such that the world is going to end (or nearly).  

The scare is because of the ‘science’ is it?  The people are there because of the ‘science’?

So, why would people dealing with supposed scientific results of the study of man’s effect on the climate happily subscribe to destroying the American economy, the banning of water, and, most inexplicably of all happily participate in a bizarre prayer to the Pagan Goddess Ixchel.

Praying to a pagan jaguar goddess?

Yep.  Climate Con delegates opened the conference by (scientifically?) praying to Ixchel, the ancient Mayan (The Mayans are the ones whose calendar others want you to believe says the world ends in 2012, by the way) lady of the rainbow and goddess of the moon.

Surely this ‘praying’ to a pagan goddess of an extinct race should have been the first major sign to the real world that the whole Climate Change con is a farce and those participating in it need some kind of therapy?

Whatever next?  Climate Change ‘believers’ sacrificing babies to appease volcanoes?  

It shows that the people are relying on ‘faith’ and pre-conceived notions rather than evidence-based science, none of which, when you actually examine the raw data from it, comes to any conclusion about anything!  

In fact, as the ‘Climategate’ emails proved, it is data that can be so easily manipulated to say whatever you need it to say.   And that’s the point.
