Some are professional political agents who will say what they are paid to say. Some are very ignorant people. Some are followers of the party line. There are probably other groups who have no respect for science and reason.

Global warming is the result of the Sun Cycles. Our impact on the planet is small. Alternitives to fuel will be found. The meteors will strike randomly, earthquakes will rock your world. The moon will leave our orbit. California will fall into the ocean. Plant a tree and get over it.

Conservatives like to deny the facts because they come from the mouths of liberals. The same way that liberals respond with skepticism to everything that conservatives say. It’s the way of the world.

Apparently, it is simply human nature to avoid taking responsibility for one’s own actions. I think your examples are great and I would like to add -” Now, Adam that isn’t really going to happen if we eat this apple! How gullible do you think I am? ” Eve. lol -k-

Because maybe it’s just too stupid to believe whatever humans assume?

As opposed to someone with higher insight does and can.

Presumably or mysteriously how did 9/11/01 make you feel or think?

SERIOUSLY!

Confusing? Well so is your question!

“…facts that are proven by virtually all scientists” That’s just it, the “facts” remain unproven by virtually any scientists. Global Warming is a theory, some observations in nature support the theory, some do not. The fact is most people don’t know what science is or what a fact is. Politicians like Al Gore and Newt Gingrich know this and use it for their advantage. The world is not going to end tomorrow. We should continue to find cleaner technology, but there is no need to panic, and there is no reason to give Congress the authority to try to control the weather.

Gun Plumber- Global Warming is not new, its been a theory for many years, what’s new is the so-called science of “climatology” These “scientists” seem to have never learned how to properly apply the scientific method. What’s worse some have been exposed for “cooking the numbers” to keep their benefactors happy.

RB- When all of your “peers” lack the ability to apply science to their argument, their agreement or disagreement really doesn’t mean anything. Engineers are real scientists. Biologists are real scientists. When they do a peer review, they look to poke holes in a theory by citing errors in measurements or other common scientific mistakes. Climatologist peer reviews lack this rigorous debate as many Biologists and Engineers have pointed out.

Hey,Airborn,There are zero peer reviewed scientific studies that support your position.Find one,if you can.Then cite it.But you cannot find one because there are zero,nil,nada,none!If you learn Science from Fox “News”,Rush Limbaugh,And thier ilk,you are really self-delusional.Crack open a study by those who study a subject rather than listen to people with a financial agenda.Good grief!

The earth goes through stages of heating and cooling. Why must everything be our fault? “The sky is falling..” get over yourselves.
