Tangier Island is disappearing due to climate change. Yet:
Moron president* is telling these poor, ignorant folks that the climate change that is, without a shadow of a doubt, destroying their island, is "fake". And they believe the ass, despite the obvious.
Sigh. How is it possible, in the 21st century, in this great country, that anti science fools are so prevalent? It boggles the mind.

I saw a neighbor woman who's little girl had a pacemaker put in a couple weeks ago. I asked her;
"How's your little girl?"
"She's doing wonderful!"
"Well, thank God for the miracles of modern science."
"Science aint got nothin' to do with it! All the glory goes to God, Praise Jesus!!!!"
That, right there is the problem.
The doctors, surgeons, nurses and technicians...… The decades of research by smart people around the globe that led to this moment.....All meaningless because "Jesus got MY back! I am highly favored!". Well, let's see. We've had religion for thousands of years but, sick little girls like hers usually didn't live to see 10 just thirty-forty years ago.
Could this be bullshit?
