On The Beach

the earth goes through cycles of heating and cooling, so how do know global warming isn't partly natural?
My understanding is that it most definitely is partly natural. Perhaps jar is suggesting that if the "Christian Culture Of Ignorance" is neutralized as a political force and cultural influence, humans may have a hope of survival.
Of course, I disagree with his flippant dismissal of Christians who (as he would put it) "park their brains at the door" because it has been my experience that the rest of the people have their sins too. In other words, humanity is likely to be wrestling, fighting or fiddling while Rome burns.
So how is the politics and global outlook from down under? I once read a book in school called On The Beach written by Neville Shute two years before I was born.
The two men most likely to escalate World War III to a nuclear conflict remain the heads of Russia and. or the United States. Do you ever see such a possible scenario or do you think, as I do, that society could mess itself up through many means other than nuclear war.
Are you a Hawk or a Dove? Or a bit of both?
