Global Warming increases mass hysteria or delusion.

“Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one!”

The quote above was written by ths man Charles Mackay you can read more about him at wikipedia . While all the reviews of his book, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds are not totally backing up his book I do believe he is touching on a point that is sweeping the mentality of most today Crowd Mentality.

This article may make my point for me from the WALL STREET JOURNAL

 A Good Example of Crowd Mentality not Educated Decisions

    Cool post .)

    It astounds me how people are so pleased to rob their children of a hope of a future. I don’t mean by ruining the earth, of course, but by convincing children that they won’t have an earth left to grow up on!

    When I was at high school, nuclear war was the “doom of choice”. It was the subject of several box office movies, many books, and a popular topic of discussion in the classroom.

    Earlier, while in primary school, the church had a fascination with preaching that the end of the world was nigh. Not that there would be a glorious return of Christ in power and might, or any of the pictures you get from reading Revelation yourself, but a “Christians will be hunted down and killed” kind of “stock up your pantry against the day we can no longer buy food” type of hysteria.

    The result? I quite naturally assumed I would be dead before I turned 30. The “gloom” factor was that high.

    This generation is convinced that the world is ending too, only the evil twist is that they can actually blame their irresponsible parents for it. After all, WE haven’t taken enough care of THEIR world.

    Reading as much children’s fiction as I do, I have been sickened by the pervasiveness of this message. I do not allow my children to read books that portray all animals as good, and all people as bad. Nor do I allow them to read fiction with a hopeless message of a world about to end. This message gives them the hopelessness that makes striving to attain something, pointless, as well as a avenue to lay the blame at the feet of the preceding generation.
