Why is so difficult for religious ppl& specially moslim ppl to UNDERSTAND global warming and climate chaos?

Answer 1

everyone needs to watch "an Inconvenient Truth" Al Gore's movie...it will answer alot of questions.

Answer 2

Are you speaking with a very broad knowledge of the views and beliefs of every religious person on the planet or just a stereotype in your head?
Or does your question spring from an experience you've had talking to one or two people whove expressed a point of view or belief that does not accord with your own?
I have a friend who is very up to date with global warming, and he's got very strong Biblical views. Infact he has arrived at an interpretation of Revelations that links John's vision with Global Warming. You can see it www.redsky.uk.net
Perhaps you could make a comment about it after reading his Domino Effect translation of the Trumpets and Bowls?

Answer 3

I understand global warming perfectly. I also reject the notion.

Here's why: I am still waiting (more than 30 years now) for the "impending ice age" that everyone was convinced was coming in the 70's. The same type of hysteria was prevalent then, as the hysteria is for global warming now.

By the way, Mars is also undergoing global warming right now. No one lives there, nor are there man-made gases causing it. If that's happening there, why not here without blaming our carbon footprint?

Answer 4

Stop smoking the corn husk. At the beginning of the first century, while Europeans were running around with bows and arrows Muslims were scientists. There are billions of religious people worldwide and many are still among the most brilliant.

That mirror you speak to on the wall, you need to get rid of it.

Answer 5

Is it really? GOSH, I never realised that Muslims had a mental deficiency specific to climate change! Is it genetic do you think? Or is it transmitted via the ink in religious printing, and thats why it affects all religions?

Or are you just talking a load of testicles?

Answer 6

I doubt it is in chaos there might be changes but what if those changes were to disapeer at some point and we find out that this is just a cycle we don't know about....Have you been around thousands of years?

Answer 7

For the same reason that is difficult for "once sided people" to understand that there are different points of view on it, so we don't have to believe only ONE side of it.

Answer 8

I understand global warming very well.

and Im Muslim.

Now be a good sport and answer me: Do you know how many TYPES of gases your house produces each year that contribute to global warming?

Answer 9

I don't know that it is. Many of the more liberal churches are deeply involved in questions about the environment. The more conservative probably figure whatever happens is God's plan, not considering that maybe God planned we would take responsibility for cleaning up and caring for our planet.

Answer 10

Everyone understands it. It is just that many people don't want to admit that we have a problem. We need to be working to solve it not sit back on our lazy backsides and say it won't happen in our lifetime so who cares.
