Times change. Ecclesiastical corruption does not.

If we consider the behavior of some "ecology-minded" individuals as being akin to religion*, is this nonsense any different from buying indulgences during the Middle Ages? Discuss.

As a stockholder, I'm annoyed that the Evil Banking Neighbor is wasting my profits on this.
As an employee, I can't help wondering how many suckers fellow employees are going to waste money on this.

*i.e. based on faith as opposed to logic, reason, or the scientific method. Appeals to authority will be rejected out of hand, especially if the authority in question is Al Gore or the United Nations.

This business of HTML on T-shirts has to stop!

I don't know what's funnier, the original post or the comments. There's something to be said for this recommended modification, though I think I myself would prefer the [RAGE] tag...
