Samuel, my dear chap,: SDF: So suggesting that people might consider riding their bike to work, as the people here do, is really a plot for global takeover, it has nothing to do with using less gasoline, getting more exercise, or putting out less carbon dioxide. Have you any evidence for this assumption, as it might pertain to these people?
You may suggest all you want. The point of the matter is that the opinion of rank-and -file environmental foot soldiers like yourself doesn't mean diddly-squat. The Imperial Communists will do as they please irrespective of your bycycling to work or flying kites in a park on Earth Day. Apparently you have a highly rated opinion of your own importance in this matter.
Perhaps when you are discarded like a dirty dishrag from this lot you will start to understand the true nature of the treason that you do to your own cause. Certainly depleted uranium, long duration self-destruct cluster bombs, a 15 kilometre oil slick, clorine leaks from chemical plants, dioxine leaks from chemical plants, and on and on is not enough to cause you to question their motive at this point and time.
: : To demonstrate it today just look at the chameleon greens (ie. Mr. Fischer of Germany) who are in support of depleted uranium being exploded all over the Balkans today.
: SDF: Let's recapitulate: You're arguing that, because some Greens (Mr. Fischer et al.) do unGreen things, all Greens are phonies.
: So, if we used this same logic, we could argue JUST AS YOU DID that, because a few Christians conducted the Spanish Inquisition and because a few Christians participated in the genocide against Native peoples in events such as the forced march along the Trail of Tears, that all Christians are phonies, that they don't really "turn the other cheek," and that they're all part of a genocidal conspiracy.
Perhaps these folks were not Christians at all, perhaps only in name?
: : Not a peep out of the "Earth Day Crowd", now is there?
: SDF: No, actually the Greens are threatening to withdraw from the coalition that put Mr. Fischer in his current state office.
Has Mr. Fischer changed his tune. Threats are a simpletons way of claiming power, its meaningless without action. If they are going to withdraw, then be principled and withdraw. Don't give us a bunch of smoke and mirrors.
In Him.
