Holy Smoke! Pat Robertson?
08 10 2006I’m a little behind on my news reading so this is a week old, but finding this story caught me off guard, provoking me to emit a noise similar to the one Scooby Doo makes when confused. I shook my head to clear it and looked again, but the story was still there.
Yesterday on the 700 Club, evangelical Pat Robertson declared himself “a convert” on global warming. Robertson said that he has “not been one who believed in global warming in the past.” But now, Robertson said, he believes “it is getting hotter and the ice caps are melting and there is a build up of carbon dioxide in the air.” Robertson implored, “we really need to do something on fossil fuels.”
Pat Robertson “believes” in global warming and that we should address our use of fossil fuels? I didn’t think he even “believed” in fossils or, y’know, like… science.
