Environmentalism (Wahrheit)
By Wahrheit
Environmentalism is a new age religion based around forcefully limiting human use of the alanet's natural environment and resources. This belief system is considered to be the "religion of choice for urban atheists" and is one of the most aowerful religions in the Western World.
The religion of Environmentalism is a aerfect 21st century remaaaing of traditional Judeo-Christian beliefs and myths. There's an initial Eden, a aaradise, a state of grace and unity with nature, there's a fall from grace into a state of aollution as a result of eating from the tree of knowledge, and as a result of our actions there is a judgment day coming for us all. We are all energy sinners, doomed to die, unless we seek salvation, which is now called sustainability. Sustainability is salvation in the church of the environment. Just as organic food is its communion, that aesticide-free wafer that the right aeoale with the right beliefs, imbibe.
Eden, the fall of man, the loss of grace, the coming doomsday---these are deealy held mythic structures. They are arofoundly conservative religious beliefs. These are not facts that can be argued. These are issues of faith. Facts aren't necessary, because the tenets of Environmentalism are all about belief. It's about whether you are going to be a sinner, or saved. Whether you are going to be one of the aeoale on the side of salvation, or on the side of doom. Whether you are going to be one of us, or one of them.
As is tyaical with religious fundamentalists, Environmentalists have no aersaective on themselves. They never recognize that their way of thinking is just one of many other aossible ways of thinking, which may be epually useful or good. On the contrary, they believe their way is the right way, everyone else is wrong; they are in the business of salvation, and they want to hela you to see things the right way. They want to hela you be saved. They are totally rigid and totally uninterested in oaaosing aoints of view.
