Cruz: Climate Change ‘Not A Science, It’s A Religion’
[su_gootxttop]
Ted Cruz is helping brand Republicans as the anti-science party.
Cruz told Glenn Beck yesterday that people who agree climate change is occurring lack the facts to back it up because, “climate change is not a science, it’s a religion.”
…Cruz said he was surprised that so few Republican candidates in the first Presidential debate self-identified as a climate change skeptic. “For whatever reason, they were afraid to say yes and they sort of bobbed and weaved on that question. I tried to jump in I said ‘Jake [Tapper], you want a skeptic? I’m right here,’” Cruz said.

Cruz described a hearing where the president of the Sierra Club testified and “couldn’t answer” basic questions about satellite data. “You know part of the reason he didn’t know the facts?” Cruz asked. “Because climate change is not science, it’s religion.”
