Yeah I’m getting real sick of that. They should be paying out - and holding big polluters responsible. Their entire industry is failing because of another industry. We should be seeing Geico suing Shell.

This 100%. So, how do we make it so that it’s more profitable for the corporations to go after each other rather than just continuing to bleed we lowly commoners?

We know it’s not God causing the climate disasters.

Wouldn’t that instead make it an act of insurrection or warfare? It would be funny to see insurance companies spin claims related to weather disasters largely caused by climate change as an act of insurrection by the oil companies

God created the universe(unless im missing a religion where gods didnt create the universe), which lead to humans, which lead global warming

God is basically as responsible for global warming as humans are if you ignore everything between “the universe is created” and “global warming”

Also, missed opportunity for an oil company to name themselves “God”

Remember God isn’t real though.

Going by that argument though, then EVERYTHING is an indirect act of God.

Bullet wound? Clearly it was God’s will, for ordering the universe in such a way that an individual was armed at that point in time to cause you harm.

Cancer? God willed the carcinoma onto your skin.

Maybe it’s just Argumentum ad absurdum, but insurance companies are basically arguing against their own existence.
