And here I thought Finns were pragmatic and largely free thinkers.

There goes that theory.

"Editing: Magically you got a star for both of your posts immediately after you posted...
Coincidence!!"

What is your obsession with me getting stars?

Rather than going off topic, if you want to suggest that there might be something questionable about this, PM me

Or raise it with a Mod rather than making these insinuations.

I find this fascinating that you get stars immediately after you post. You must have some real fans who follow as it seems.

Dr Thunberg was awarded her doctorate by the Theology Department I think. Maybe there is some truth there as she is indeed so much indoctrinated, brainwashed, and absorbed in her beliefs, that the Department recognised her absolute convictions and delusions that go together with religions and cults.

I still think the Scandinavian countries are quite decent but not perfect. Although in this case there must be some politics that we are not aware of.

I really can't get worked up about this.

Other beliefs and opinions than yours are available, would you like to shut them all down or something?

Give it up with the stars thing.

Like I said, either PM me or take it up with a Mod.

Just stop with the baseless insinuations.

According to one of the posts on twitter Dr Thunberg is an atheist who has never been to the church. I don't know about these beliefs but given she is a radical left wing activist then it's most likely she doesn't believe in anything else other than her own ideology i.e the climate catastrophy as she has been indoctrinated and brainwashed by she was a toddler.

PM for you.

Truly Clown world we are in.

Pretty soon they will be removing Post-Nominal letters behind people of professions names due to being racist, or sounding too privileged.

Who is removing anything?

It's an Honorary Doctorate. What's the big deal?

Who cares?

a reply to: Asmodeus3

People need energy, if we can't heat our homes with gas or oil then we will turn to wood.

Greta doesn't care about the environment, only which paws control the energy supply.

People who have opinions aligned with and influenced by unhinged teenagers are morons.

I mean, nobody can take seriously one of the most confused, indoctrinated, and deranged young person ever existed. She was reading from a script, she doesn't know what she is talking about and the great irony is that she has followers just like politicians do when they talk about matters they don't understand in the slightest.

But the situation has become surreal!!

It's coming! Even the word 'man' could be censored in the future.

"Is that where you lost your soul?".

No, some years later i sold it to Satan. He was a bit miffed when he found out I didn't have one to sell.

He's claiming breach of contract and it's still going through the Courts.

ironically theology is called the queen of the sciences for a reason. and that the meaning of science in english is "sacred doctrine" as the latin doesn't translate well into english.. this is why mathematician John Lennox puts it, “Men became scientific because they expected law in nature, and they expected law in nature because they believed in a lawgiver.”

so it feels strange if greta does accept something so rooted in religion.

I don't think you have to be religious to study Theology?

To be fair Dr Thunberg is a great physicist and she should have been awarded a doctorate in physics for her contributions in the climate change catastrophy scenarios.

She is also a great actor for which I think she should get a lot of awards as her skills are amazing even when she reads from scripts.

And equally important, she is a super leftie. One of the greatest left wing and green activists having all these qualities that most of them have.

For a few moments I was speechless and couldn't believe what I was reading. I had to look on various sources and sites online so to make sure this piece of information was true but unfortunately... it's true!!! I can write essays on the whole subject of Greta Thunberg or the decision taken by the University of Helsinki to award her with a doctorate even if it's honorary.

I see what I can do, but probably will write a few extra paragraphs later on after the shock goes away...

For the time being, ladies and gentlemen, I present you

Dr Greta Thunberg!!!

It's about time someone recognized climate activism as the religion it really is.
