It is fanaticism that's the problem... or rather whatever combinations of human nature and environment that lead to it.
many years ago, when I used to haunt the religious debate chatrooms on Yahoo!, we called them all 'fundIes', regardless what particular flavour of fanatic they were. It's all the same beast, just different breeds.

Aha! ok, if I'VE paid for it, I can officially have the arse about it.

The real thing that pisses me off about stories like this is the way that these wankers always think that the "need" to reduce emissions or whatever so obviously doesn't apply to THEM, because naturally there is some carbon offset involved because they are spreading the message or some such nonsense.

Whatever happened to leading by example? This case being particular bad, as there is no reason why he couldn't have iced up the thing in situ rather than shipping it halfway around the world in a climate-controlled aeroplane.

Oh my god, they're not are they? It'll never work. Or, it'll become a complete miss the point like the Wizard of Oz.

At least someone else has read The Magicians Nephew, after everyone I've mentioned it to for the last 20 years has responded with the same blank look, I was beginning to think I'd imagined it...!
