Liberals have made young people fear that the future is hopeless because of global warming.

Meanwhile, Repugnants/rightwingers tell their children

--The earth is 8,000 years old and evolution is a secular humanist liberal conspiracy to turn you away from God

--Witches, demons, and evil spirits are real and lurking around every corner to send your soul to hell.

--Gay people are sinners and headed for damnation (which I'm sure makes gay kids feel wonderful).

--Our president is a socialist that wants to destroy America

--Islam is an evil force in the world, and since there are about a billion of them, the only solution is...well, Armageddon, more or less.

--America is a land of English speakers. Therefore, the huge numbers of Spanish-speaking Hispanics in America are a threat to our very civilization.

Repugnants routinely paint an optimist future for their kids, don't they?

Do you consider yourself a reasonable person, capable of rational discussion?

Absolutely. I've been trying to have rational discussions on here for a long time, but I keep getting told that you will simply do what Democrats have always done. So what's the point?

If you really want to embrace a hopeless future, become a Repugnant. It must be religion that keeps you guys from just committing mass suicide.

I don't know about "Repugnants", but I've not told my kids any of the things you've listed.

By the way, did you know Obama prays to Jesus every night?

...about possible threats and future problems, their own or America's or humanity's. Cons are more likely to lie, hide behind tradition, wrap themselves in a flag, or insist against rational evidence that "God did it."

I hope they're not all teaching their kids this crap, or that if they are, most of their kids wise up and realize it's all fertilizer...

You don't know how funny it is to hear YOU ask that question, "Sarge..."

sgtROCK:

Try making a reasonable post, instead of one that starts out with a bunch of accusatory bullshit.......

What do you mean by "accusatory bullshit?" Like the idea that liberal environmentalists are making kids afraid?

sgtROCK:

Environmentalism and Global Warming are not the same movements. One is a fringe subset of the other..........

Dissembling, Crock? Come on now. Show us how rational people debate. Come on! Show us!

"Stupid bitch thinks marriage is only for a man and woman, remember little girls if you ever dream of winning a beauty pageant don't hold to your values and give an honest response. For heavens sake lie your little heads off so you have a chance to win."

Liars on both sides, fairly equal. It's the inability of the left to tolerate other's points of view that gives them a slam dunk in the disingenuous contest.
