Liberals are terrified of climate change because they don't believe in God, contends talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh.
He told his listeners that people who believe in God acknowledge that life is no coincidence and that the brilliant design of the universe is "beyond our ability to comprehend."
The left, he said, believes the "earth, the universe, the solar system, the planets, whatever … [is] some random, haphazard, accidental thing that's just really, really fragile."
"Well, then, you can be easily coerced into believing that one or two slight changes could destroy it, if it's just an accident, if it's just a coincidence," he reasoned.
"It's just, like, some Big Bang. I mean, if it's really fragile… You notice one of the foundational aspects of selling climate change is that the earth is fragile, that the ecosystem and the climate are fragile, barely being held in place.
"One wrong move and we could all be gone! But people who have been raised with a… I'm not talking about devout. The people that have been raised with a belief in, respect for, and understanding of God and creation are gonna be much harder sells on this."
