Now that it's at least correct enough to mention that Global Warming theory has some solid science that DISAGREES with it's theories, the "Emperor Has No Clothes" is being played out across the media.
Tonight, on Fox News, on the Kondrake program, both the talking heads admitted that the "cause" has become at least a bit cultish.
In Hegemonic Pundit, we see "Death to Heretics!", a fine blog post, then DirtCrashr expands that cat-o-nine-tails whipping into a full bullwhip thrashing with Hegemonic EcoLeftists. DirtCrashr put on his heavy-prose hair shirt with this one! I can be a pedantic writer, but in my most pedantic day I NEVER dreamed of writing like this.
Al Gore as a Cargo Cultist! Oh, my.
YOU.MUST.READ.THESE.POSTS.
NOW!

UPDATE: 032507 1018 PDT: Let's add another fine blog post to the must-read list: ChrisB at Guns and Guts has had an "Epiphany".

Could this be the beginning of the end for the Global Warming hysteria? It could, because the one thing cultists can NEVER stand is being exposed to the cold light of reason, THEN LAUGHED AT! Maybe we should expect Sarin gas on the DC Metro, too, Kool-Aid on the Mall, triangular blankets in the Democratic Caucus.
Mankind will have to learn to deal with the effects of a warming climate, but the "emergency" as outlined by Gore and others is just not here. 23 inches of sea-level rise by 2100 is not anything to panic about. Gore's "prediction" of 23 METERS (75 feet) of sea level rise came right out of his ass, and deserves to be flushed. It looks like perhaps that will be the fate of Enviro-Czar Gore, himself.
Jah-mon, Fat AlGore in a tall black top-hat, wearing' a grass skirt wit' a little gris-gris pouch around he neck, shakin' the maraca and a chicken-bone ju-ju necklace, face painted like de Voodoo Priest! It's an image I can live with. ;-)
Anthropologists have a long tradition of academic fraud and exaggeration. From Margaret Meade who made it all up and Bronislaw Malinowski who was just out to let laid in the South Pacific, to the peyote-pseudo Mexican Carlos Casteneda - tellers of tall-tales come back to roost and find refuge in academe, so it should be easy to spot another fake-fakir.

I am half-convinced that within my lifetime at least the temps will go back down to what they were 50 years ago. The "natural cycle" theory makes way to much sense to me at least. Is the planet really so unstable that 100 years of our activity would send it into this tail spin of certain death? I don't believe it is.
Either way the, as you aptly described, cultish indoctrination of the leftist group-think always makes me think something is amiss. Most often they are trying to sell me a big line of bullshit.
