Daily Kos: Belief in the Second Coming is Stifling Climate Progress

Daily Kos: Belief in the Second Coming is Stifling Climate Progress:

"A new study suggests that the United States has been impeded, in part, by the Biblical “end time” belief. Research by University of Pittsburgh’s David C. Barker and David H. Bearce of the University of Colorado revealed that the belief, held by a large number of Americans, that the earth has a predetermined expiration date, is a motivating factor behind resistance to addressing climate change."

Sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy to me. Let's end the earth to prove that it's end times!
