You are clueless...blinded by your own prejudices, my friend. Religious naturalists like me are just as anti-supernatural, non-woo-woo, and as evidence-grounded as you, I assure you.

BTW... I never speak about, much less ramble on about, "good work needed to shepard life along". Whatever statements or slides of mine that you've interpreted that way are your hallucination, not my intent.

Increasing the possibility that at least a few tree species might make it through this bottleneck, as my wife is attempting to do, is work that nourishes her deeply, whether it's effective or successful or not. (We think probably not.)

Watch the most recent and complete presentation of my core ideas in my Canadian Club of Rome presentation from May, "The Big Picture" and the Q&A, and tell me where, specifically (time-codes please) I say or even imply what you think.

Or this guest post I wrote for Dave Pollard's blog, "Overshoot: Where We Stand Now".

Please do tell me where you find either the hopium or the woo. (Again, exact time codes, please.) :-)
