pack up your stuff - we're going to Hell

Today I learned that you can interpret the First Commandment to mean that worrying about global warming is a sin, but reducing pollution is fine. Here the problem is spelled out:

In 1994, the U.N. commissioned [U.N. Earth Summit director] Maurice Strong to write the Earth Covenant that was introduced in 2000 as the Earth Charter. The new edict was written on papyrus paper, placed in a replica of the Ark of the Covenant, ceremoniously ushered into the U.N. and called "the new 10 commandments," a "Global Ethic" that will transcend all religions and countries.

So that goes against the whole 'no gods before God' edict. I had no idea global warming was that evil.

In other news, if I hadn't been to Fark.com, I wouldn't have learned that squirrels use lightsabers (scroll down).
