Meanwhile, white supremacist Robert Stacy McCain makes the connection between creationism and AGW denial even more obvious, with a blatantly anti-science post at his hate blog:

[Link: theothermccain.com…]

What a pathetic screed:

The assertion that Science has all the answers to every important question, and that no answers are to be found in any ”unscientific” source, is arrogant in the extreme. This assertion is offensive to anyone who has studied the history of science, for that history is littered with once-fashioable [sic] theories that have been discarded as not merely false, but dangerous. It is not hyperbole to say that the infamous dictators of the 20th century — Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot — all believed their tyrranies [sic] were justified by Science. Nor is it irrelevant to point out that all of these murderous madmen shared a contempt for religion and traditional morality.

Notice the typos and the capitalization of science as if though it was an ideology. According to Robert S. McCain, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot, et al, promoted their ideologies based on science therefore science must be feared. Ergo, he is calling them men of science thus they also “shared a contempt for religion and traditional morality” which he equates with their “murderous” history.
