Bishop likens climate change deniers to child abuser
The Bishop of Stafford has written an article in a parish magazine likening climate change deniers to Josef Fritzl, the Austrial child abuser that locked up and raped his daughter for 24 years. As a āclimate change denierā myself, I find these remarks highly offensive so I got on the blower to the office of the Diocise of Lichfield…
I urge everyone to email them and complain to this slur against people willing to debate the issue. bishop.lichfield@lichfield.anglican.org Spread the word on this disgracefully and nasty cretin.
Considering the record of the clergy on kiddie-fiddling surely its unwise to cast such a phrase on others.

Oh do grow up and stop frothing at the mouth. He was doing nothing of the sort. If you can’t properly follow such a basic argument about attitudes such as the ultra-selfishness of libertarianism and faith based belief systems like the pseudo-science of climate change denial you need to go and lie down in a darkened room for a few years.
When have I ever said there is no such thing as climate change? The climate is always changing, in fact the climate is getting colder right now. I am just skeptical of man-made effects on the climate or rather the percentage.
The remarks were offensive and not becoming of a Bishop.
No opinion was given one way or the other on your individual opinion on the subject of climate change.
The comment was about the ability to follow an argument/line of reasoning and pick out its salient features.
I rest my case.
Are intellectual athletics within the United Kingdom at such a low level of activity that Hansell’s commentary would be considered as other than the juvenile tactics of a passive-aggressive housewife?
