Apparently none of these people had a problem with the grass stains bleeding on them from the plants they were sitting on. Nor the cotton plants who gave up their children for the hippies’ clothes…or how much of a carbon footprint was trampled in the earth for the synthetics used in their garments. Give me a break.

My Heavenly Father, I thought it was a joke. I hope those people do not have children. If those women aren’t mourning their children’s hurts and failures at the same volume and intensity as this, those kids are going to feel like highly-embarassed non-entities. Or spouses, now that I think of it. If their marital passion isn’t conducted at the same screaming pitch, they might feel a little underwhelming.

I don’t give a flack for that fiddle faddle. What I want to know is were our brother and sister trees gay trees?

and P.S. speaking of old growth ,you’d think they had enough of that about with all the armpit hair.

People who live in wood houses shouldn’t whine so much. Boy, try a different planet.

Perhaps thy should move to the Gobi or High Arctic where there are no trees. But not the Antarctic, penguins have no tolerance for tree-huggers.

You really can’t make up stuff like that, can you.

Actually, I do weep for the trees. That they’re being exposed to such stupidity.

Oh, and ROCKS ARE NOT LIVING THINGS!

It’s my understanding that young trees use up a lot more carbon dioxide than old trees. “Greens” should therefore be in favor of cutting old trees and planting new ones.

Now if they were sitting outside an abortion clinic…

Oh, never mind.

FW Ken,

To the wacko left (and many a TEO member): Dead trees are bad, dead babies are good

The problem is that flakes like this are allowed to vote. It makes me shudder to think of their choices.

Pure comedy gold.

This is a joke, right?

10-to-1, they’re pro-“choice.”

Someone should tell them that trees can grow back. If they are that worried, they should quit crying and start planting.

Heh. . .eco-feminist GaiaSisters in the RCC have been doing this sort of thing for decades.

Earth (always capitalized, always sans the definite article) has been the focus of their “spirituality” since the 70′s.

And here I thought TEO was cutting edge…

Fr. Philip,, OP

Got half a mind to ask about this at snopes. Seems like a gag to me.

It’s from Sep 2008. Try this, Scott:

Is this a bad time to mention that I spent the weekend shooting pheasants with my 12g Browning shotgun (wood stock)?

I suggest we make all those things out of hippies instead, but I don’t think they sand or stain very well.

Clifford,

That explains why “1,000 Uses For A Dead Hippie” so quickly went out of print.

I’ve often thought the perfect punishment for an eco-terrorist would be to leave them, sans any man-made item (in other words, bare-butt naked) on an unhabited island full of old-growth trees, or in the middle of the Everglades, for 30 days. Let’s see how that ‘living-in-harmony-with-Gaia’ thing works out.

When is someone going to make a documentary showing these yo-yo’s parents screaming when they find out what their $100K plus spent at our nation’s finest examples of higher education has delivered?

In my current session on the internet, besides reading this important blog(!) I was also looking for vinyl shutters for my home. I think I will spent the extra jack and get real wood.

I’d make some kind of joke here about consecrating a tree as an Episcopal bishop but as you know, jokes about these people tend to come true. Besides, if they actually did, Episcopal sermons would greatly improve.

“The first time I saw them, I didn’t really scream, I didn’t really cry, but I need to. AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Priceless. Wonder what St. Paul would make of all this? I wonder if they live consistent with this professed world view 24/7.

Someone should do a mock debate between these guys and Cass Sunstein. Are all herbivores murderers? Once you remove the Christian worldview, the secularists run around like chickens with their heads cut off. They’ve lost all guidance, all semblance of sanity.

Let’s see how that ‘living-in-harmony-with-Gaia’ thing works out.

It would work out, one way or the other…either they’d find a way to survive (the end result of that would be interesting to see), or they’d become “One with Gaia” via the digestive system of a large predator…

They’ve lost all guidance, all semblance of sanity.

You hit the nail on the head, SB.

This was uncomfortable for me to watch. These folks really have honest-to-goodness lost it. And then they can calm down and rationalize their delusional thoughts and behavior.

Remind you of anyone you know?

It does look like an over acted parody, I must admit.

And Chris, if the Episcopalians consecrate a tree as a bishop, can I take my dog for a walk there?

Is this the best they can do? Makes me want to go chop a tree down. I need more wailing and blubbering or I’ll pull weeds and chop limbs and pull down trees! Also, please take your tops off, ladies. Not you old wrinkly ladies, just you young nubile chicks. That’s right. Strip down and dance like a druid or I’ll cut down the oldest tree I can find! (Remember: I’m a clown. Very much like an Episcopal priest.

I hear they were going to make Soylent Green from hippies, but the stench of their unwashed bodies deterred anyone from trying to capture them.

Since Cardinal Kasper has nothing else to do at the moment, he can help them out.

Are these folk Druids?

and afterward they like all got together and like held hands, sang kum by ya and like drank herbal tee.

Some of these people believe that the only way to restore the natural balance is to eliminate all humans from the planet.

I’m with Clifford, drop them butt neked in the boonies… give them a survival knife and let them live like that for a while.
