The Global Warming Boogieman Will Get You!

Surely the Anthropomorphic Global Warming crowd has finally jumped the shark even for their own supporters. I mean come on now. I just read where a group from Penn State (wasn’t that where one of the folks who was involved with the altering of data was from?) issued a report where they suggested that one of the outcomes of making contact with another race could lead to our being exterminated. http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2011/aug/18/aliens-destroy-humanity-protect-civilisations

And why would this be? Well according to the authors, it would be because they would see how we were destroying our planet (according to them) and they would need to exterminate us before we infected any place else.

Since the 1950s we have been fed a diet of aliens coming to planet earth. In some instances they are good guys like in “The Day The Earth Stood Still” and “Star Man”, sometimes not so good like “Independence Day” or “Battlefield Earth”. Now the econuts want us to believe that the ETs we will encounter are “green”. They are worried about the environment.

I would venture to say that the odds are equally as high that any species that has developed technologically to the point that they are capable of interstellar travel, will have used their available planetary resources to their fullest. That they will have developed much as Darwin had outlined, and they won’t give a $hit about anything we have done or not done to our planet, but might well destroy us because they might see us as a competitor. Much like a cougar will run off or destroy another cougar they find in “their” territory.

It seems to me that as more and more folks question anthropomorphic global warming and the shakey science behind it, those who make their living off of it are becoming more hysterical. Al Gore is cursing non-believers out and calling for increasingly ridiculous actions. The more these people become marginalized, the more radical their hypothesizes become. The more outlandish their behavior becomes.

Now this!

Telling us that if we don’t change our ways and start doing what they want us to do, aliens will get us. The syllogistic equivalent of our parents telling us if we don't be quiet and go to sleep right now the boogieman will get us.
