#1 Mormons recently embraced the global warming message and many ray they are not going to have children to stop global warming. I heard a Christian preacher say the Mormons are a cult and in time you will see why. How prophetic.

#3 "Because I once ran for prexident and lost I have a right (in my own mind) to make policy." We need an exile or euthanasia policy for losing candidates. It would focus everyone's attention.

#5 Umm, could someone tell me the time when "Climate Change" wasn't happening?

#6 Climate Change will always happen whether humans want it too or not.

I just don't believe human actives contribute all that much to it.

#7 'Airstip One' must have a common enemy. Climate Change is that enemy.

#8 When churches declare that their flock needs a second religion you know the game is up. I actually have additional respect for Jehova's Witnesses now until they also buy in...

#9 I left the Lutheran Church because they are up to 5 or six religions now: LGTQWXYZ, Climate Change, BLM, Latin American Refugees, Syrian Refugees...

#10 The Lutherans brought us the Minnesota Somalis, the lovers of assimilation.

#11 Mitt has always believed this. It's one of the many, many reasons why he was such a terrible choice to run for President, at least for Republicans.

#12 I'll believe climate change is a problem when the people saying it is a problem start acting like it is a problem.

#13 Jack, I thought it was the Clinton - Gore administration? Good to see you G.

#14 The difference between religion and cult is solely one of scale. A religion is a cult that has gotten really big.

#15 Islam, Catholicism, Mormons, Climate Change, Socialism... there are differences in the details, but none of them encourage people to think for themselves or live independently of Cult Leadership.

#16 True. Man-made, panic fueled, existential traps for fools and their families.

#17 "We need an exile ... policy for losing candidates." M. Murcek
Yes, Yes, Yes! But where?

#19 Greenland is too nice for that. Send em to gitmo, on the way let the Lieutenant on the C-130 tell em "You know, you'll never get to leave there. The medic can fix you up or you can take your chances with that parachute pack over there..."

#20 Do we need to test passenger seats on new spacecraft? I can't think of anybody more expendable.

#21 But where?
IIRC, the Byzantines had a quaint custom for inconvenient political opponents: a new lifestyle as a Solitary Monk on a small island. Just imagine, you have a restful life tending a small vegetable patch, several goats or a chicken or two, far away from civilization where you can study Holy Books™.

#22 Magpie, the Byzantines would accompany exile with some disqualifying disfigurement. Castration was a popular one, as it also eliminated the odds of heirs popping up later, but the usual was removing the nose. Mangled people were clearly not favored by God, and thus unsuitable to be the Emperor of Rome.
