That's funny considering the church of climatology can't exist without government subsidy.

Neither can the current fossil fuel industry. Either through explicit subsidies, or through implicit ones by allowing them to use the environment as their free sewer.
The fossil fuel industry can exist fine without subsidies. Where else can people get cheaper fuel?
Again, the fuel is cheap only because they aren't being charged for the externalities (e.g. CO2e) that the fuel produces.
