Letter: Indulgences via carbon tax plan

To the Church of the Al Gorians:

Why cover your sins with the payment of indulgences to the climate gods in the form of a carbon tax? Perhaps it would be better to fully repent and stop driving your cars. For a higher and celestial climate reward, you may also consider jettisoning your gas water heater, gas stove, gas furnace and gas clothes dryer.

As for me and my house, we will be voting NO on the carbon tax.
