The earth dries up and withers,
the world languishes and withers,
the heavens languish with the earth.
5
The earth is defiled by its people;
they have disobeyed the laws,
violated the statutes
and broken the everlasting covenant.
6
Therefore a curse consumes the earth;
its people must bear their guilt.
Therefore earths inhabitants are burned up,
and very few are left.

Faux sez global warming is not real and that scientists insist that it is just to continuing making their $150K salaries - that they "lie for money."
Oh, no, it has *nothing* to do with the US & UK polluting Oil Corporations making $150Billion a quarter. Nothing at all.
My Faux-bot brother spouted this shit and greatly offended my hubby who is a scientist.
