Oh, it's just what happens to religious zealots when their church dogma is questioned. When someone as renowned as Freeman Dyson believes this

I simply find that a lot of these claims that experts are making are absurd. Not that I know better, but I know a few things. My objections to the global warming propaganda are not so much over the technical facts, about which I do not know much, but it’s rather against the way those people behave and the kind of intolerance to criticism that a lot of them have.
And even past IPCC members say this:

The theologist Michael Rosenberger has described climate protection as a new religion, based on a fear for the apocalypse, with dogmas, heretics and inquisitors
The problem isn't with the skeptics.

It's with the true believers.

After all, science is BASED on skepticism. Not attacking skeptics as "deniers".

Hence all my popcorn-munching. This is fun.
