Limbaugh Connects Creationism With AGW Denial

For a long time, Rush Limbaugh avoided the topic of creationism. But today, for the second time in a year, Limbaugh openly professed his creationist beliefs.

And even more interestingly, Limbaugh tied those beliefs to his denial of global warming. Limbaugh’s “philosophy,” if you can call it that, is that since God created the planet Earth, he simply would not allow mankind to have the ability to destroy it through environmental damage.

Yes, that’s what he said. I’ve often noted that the tactics of creationists and global warming deniers have many things in common, but today Limbaugh made the connection quite explicitly. His belief in creationism is behind his refusal to accept the evidence of global warming.

The audio is here.
