You might wan't to rethink your example here... You don't need a boat yet, but New Orleans has suffered incredibly in the last 20 years, both materially and spiritually, because of the hurricanes and flooding.

>You might wan't to rethink your example here... I might not... Katrina, Harvey, Betsy, 1915, etc. New Orleans is still there. It's not under sea like all the prophecies foretold.

  I guess the human toll of all those things aren't really all that meaningful when it is not visually apparent to an outside observer. Which does make this a good example of what is going in general, you are right!

Remember, New Orleans isn't underwater and it's past 2020. >when it is not visually apparent to an outside observer. I'm old enough to remember seeing all the pictures and videos of the aforementioned hurricanes. Don't project your ignorance on everyone else. > Which does make this a good example Yes, a good example of New Orleans still being there, all the highways are still there, the sports arenas are still there, there are over a million people that live there, etc.

      Thank you for being so patient and kind. I am pretty slow in my thinking (low IQ), so it really helps when someone, point by point, explains to me why I am wrong in a compassionate and unassuming way. And I am glad I could entertain you with my stupidity along the way :). I will work on not talking out of place, and not being so worried about climate change, but I do understand that I am in this position in the first place because of my moral and rational faults. My best wishes to you and your loved ones, may you continue to find peace and stay dry (well, as you explained, you'll probably stay dry either way, still, the sentiment still stands).
