I just got an e-mail this week from someone I know who voted for Obama. He was worried about the bogeyman peak oil. Where does the left get all these crazy views? I actually think that atheism causes people on the left to be afraid of the unpredictable future. They imagine insane doomsday scenarios and they become very frightened. They then try to make the world predictable by imposing totalitarianism, to control consumption of scarce resources.

It’s the secular equivalent of “Left Behind” fiction, only they actually believe it. It’s their religion.

But the thing is, it’s all false.

Take a look at this post by Jason over at The Western Experience.

Here’s the summary:

• Who was Thomas Malthus?
• What did he predict?
• Why did his predictions fail?
• Who was Paul Ehrlich?
• What did he predict?
• Why did his predictions fail?
• Some more insane predictions of the left

You might want to read his short, informative post. (It’s a perfect post) And then remember, this is the worldview of the left. They believe this, right up to Obama’s mad science czar.

Previous stories about Obama’s science czar:

• Science czar says trees should be able to sue and born babies are not human beings
• Science czar advocated forced abortions, mass sterilizations and totalitarianism
• Why leftists push policies that kill tens of millions of innocent people
• The murderous views of leading environmentalists

The fact that their predictions are always wrong doesn’t stop them from acting crazily.
