"Just why green schemes are so prone to flop or be fleeced is no coincidence. The word “green” - or “sustainable” - is like holy water. Sprinkle it on a sinner and even the greatest conman is redeemed."Carbon credits are being touted as the new 'indulgences', sold to ameliorate guilt for living with excess.
As I have said previously, this current predisposition towards a mystical reverence for something, anything, stems from our human need to worship someone greater than ourselves, a desire built into our DNA...open your eyes, look and see how history and current trends provide the evidence? Where does guilt come from, medial science tells us that only the true psychopath feels no guilt. Some would have us believe that guilt is a mechanism 'developed' by humanity as a 'tool' to prevent murderous intent! Why develop such a tool (as if we could independently decide to do such a thing) if survival of the fittest was our only goal, surely to obliterate the 'other' would be an advantage, why would we need to 'invent' a 'safeguard?
Truly, the theory of evolution as espoused by Darwin (a failed and delinquent seminary student who blamed God for his misfortunes) requires more than blind faith to hold onto its precepts, it requires that you euthanize your reason voluntarily.
