I’d Rather Rot in Hell, Al Gore

Al Gore has an op-ed piece in the New York Times titled We Can’t Wish Away Climate Change, defending, naturually, the pseudo-science of AGW.  Gore’s piece deserves to be torn apart simply based on his global warming musings, but I will leave that to others.  What I want to address is the following sentence from Gore’s AGW defense.

From the standpoint of governance, what is at stake is our ability to use the rule of law as an instrument of human redemption.

It is time for the State to quit legislating my, or any other individual’s, redemption, whether the State’s reason for use of force (legislation), to ensure human redemption, is concern for my soul, or my physical well being.
