Some days you just have to laugh.
The map, is quite something; perhaps it is the product of a bender or a psychotic episode of some sorts. Maybe its a lame attempt at satire, maybe the person actually believes what they wrote. It is hard to determine.
This person (“anonymous coward” per Slashdot) writes at a place called “Humanist Cafe”, which seems more anti-human than pro-human:
Jehovah God punishes only the deniers and saves the believers. Isn’t that the way these things go. Only this time, it’s science we’re talking about. When JG is done, the country will look something like this:

That’s the Lower 28 1/2. Isn’t it beautiful.
That’s the country if climate change affects only the states whose representatives in the House and the Senate deny global warming.
Now, some states get a little lucky – they are saved by rather hefty mountain ranges. A few progressive cities in denier states are saved too – like San Antonio and Austin. But, Red ‘Merica gets hit hard.

This reminds me of the sort of rants “Forecast the Facts” Brad Johnson has made about the states with conservative public representatives:
Gulf of AZ! I like it – how soon? Methinks my 5000 ft elevation property won’t be under water like it says, especially if Seattle is spared. But it oughtta be a much shorter trip for some good saltwater fishing.
And the Caribbean Islands are not underwater. How come?
I left two responses asking politely for the science processes and physics that the Humanist Café article was based on but they did not survive moderation. I am already dead to them I guess. 😉
Is this “anonymous coward”’s name Lex Luther?
If he wants to invoke “Jehovah God” perhaps he should read what He said about rainbows.
PS Years my son bought me a coffee mug with a heat-sensitive map of the globe showing the globe being inundated the hotter the contents got. The US looked nothing like that even with the hottest coffee.
======================================================
TYPO: That should be “PS Years ago my son bought me a coffee mug
Surely the work of Hitler youth
Tomorrow I am going to buy me a big boat. I’ll be just a few miles from the Gulf of Arkansas. A boat, a mojito, and a fishing pole!! Life is good. It also looks like Cheyenne will be the new Miami.
Too bad the rest will perish of hunger since the productive states have been turned into seabed and the nutritional value of food stamps is near zero.
Last I heard from some AGW folks, they had admitted that cyclonic activities were unconnected to global warming. Apparently there now exists a schism in the bunch.
More evidence that the global warming alarmist crowd has taken over from the young-earth creationists. Faith and zealotry override any sense. The alarmists, as throughout history, are the true believers, immune from all fact and reality.
Twenty years from now the warming alarmists will be forgotten, but they will still be there, still preaching doom, even though the faithful will be few.
And Al Gore said, “Tell a man a lie and he might believe and repeat it. Teach him Photoshop and he can make up all kinds of BS.”
The Gulf will extend into Tornado Alley. Do you know what this means? Sharknados will be comeing to a town near you!
I was going to make a comparison…something to the effect of the shoe on the other foot
…then I remembered Charlie Rangel beat me to it
So, my point would have been moot….they can say anything they want
Oh, come on. This is obviously a kind of joke.
WooHoo, on the beach in Cheyenne.
Humanist Café:
“Jehovah God punishes only the deniers and saves the believers. Isn’t that the way these things go. ”
Hmm. They just called Global Warming a religion.
I don’t think they’re smart enough to have noticed.
Our Progressive friends are getting impatient with our intransigence. Apparently there is a time limit on skepticism.
I’m a little disappointed that no one realized this is the 10-10 video without the explosions.
Before he posted this map, the cartographer tried to stop global warming by throwing a virgin into a volcano. The only virgin he could find was his live-in girlfriend. His attempt failed because she had had a boyfriend before him, but he couldn’t believe that, so he made his map.
The guy that drew that map is obviously geographically challenged and probably thinks Kevin Costern’s “Waterworld” was a documentary.
I’ve always pointed out the close similarity of the AGW crowd and fundamentalist religions.
Miami survives as an island, lol.
Great “science.”
I find it funny and sad they use God’s name, Jehovah. This reminds me of a sermon I was taught about in my American Literature class, Sinners in the Hand of an Angry God. Jonathan Edwards, who wrote the sermon, kept proclaiming that Jehovah was just ready to punish sinners in a burning hell. One line of the sermon: “The misery you are exposed to is that which God will inflict to that end, that he might show what that wrath of Jehovah is. God hath had it on his heart to show to angels and men, both how excellent his love is, and also how terrible his wrath is.”
This is absolute craziness, a repeat of the so-called Great Awakening. And just like then, it shows little knowledge into the Bible actually says. To me, this is AGW mixing with fire-and-brimestone Christianity. I’m not sure this is climate craziness or religious craziness. I wish I knew who this anonymous person was. I can prove them wrong with both science and the Bible.
I think that maybe this is an adaptation of some of Edgar Cayce’s prophecies:

Believing in God gives people a warm feeling, but so does peeing in your pants. Both are equally effective as sources for solving the problems we face.
