Religious people keep going around calling global warming a hoax. They provide no evidence corroborating their claims. They provide no proof. To them, evidence is meaningless and proof does not exist. They're completely wrong, but they choose denial over acceptance.

It used to be, people thought the world was flat. People thought the Earth was the center of the Universe, and the Sun revolved around the Earth. It used to be, people thought the Earth and all the stars were created 6,000 years ago, and all creatures were created in their current form. We've proven all of that to be a bunch of bullshit. We've proven all of religion to be a bunch of bullshit, something created by man, with nothing to do with God. What's it going to take for religious people to stop being religious? To get rid of the nonsense belief mechanism, which inhibits their ability to ascertain and accept truth?

Maybe they call global warming a hoax, because they want it to happen? They make believers believe it isn't true, so there is less effort to stop global warming? Many religious people want humanity dead, to 'prove' their beliefs (how ironic), and send them, the believers, to eternal bliss. Their desire for human extinction, yet again, proves the inherent danger of religion. If these very same organizations were not religious, simply organizations wanting the extinction of humanity, no one would tolerate them. And yet, these religious people hold some of the highest offices... such as the Queen of England, who has publicly stated she cannot wait for Jesus to return (meaning, for everyone to die).

Why does religious tolerance persist? We know religion has nothing to do with any real God's, so fear of God could not be a legitimate reason. Political bribery? Any politician works to get the religious vote. You only believe things because you don't know them. When you have gained knowledge, belief no longer exists. In the case of religion, believers deny gained knowledge in favor of pre-existing fallacies. So again, why do we tolerate religion? Clearly, there are some who stopped tolerating religion. Maybe religion will finally be gone when no one tolerates it anymore.
