Several years ago I wrote a post claiming that I've only known two people who believe in a Hell.
Yes, only two of them.
I wasn't talking about answering "yes" to a survey, but acting as if people who don't hold the correct opinions about the divinity and mission of Jesus are going to burn forever.
At least there are two of them.
I've never met anyone who believes in Anthropogenic Global Warming. Nobody believes it is happening. No one acts as if he or she is the cause of it, and then repents of those actions.
Al Gore doesn't believe it, Obama sure doesn't believe it, and the scientists who are devoting their careers to proving that they are the cause of the warming - they don't believe it. P.Z. Myers doesn't believe it. My dedicated warmista friend Cedric Katesby doesn't believe it.
They all fly. They drive. They use air conditioning and heaters in their homes.
They can drag out charts and graphs and thermometers all day, and they won't convince a soul. As long as they fly, drive, heat and compute, they're not going to convince anyone.
Don't tell me that you believe the gods are all-knowing, and then sin when you think people aren't watching. Please don't bother me with hells and demons, and then go shopping at the mall instead of trying to convert the "lost".
The Global Warming scare was fund-raising and taxation by other means. So please, not another word about my carbon footprint. It's over.

Al Gore did not invent the internet...he invented global warming.

Allen, this is a naked appeal to hypocrisy.
Why are you resorting to this?
Again?
NASA launches satellites to study the Earth's climate.
Those mult-million dollar satellites didn't get into orbit due to solar power therefore...NASA doesn't accept global warming?
If I use a computer to type in a comment on your blog then...I don't accept global warming?
If a scientist switches on a powerpoint presentation to explain their latest research in the Antarctic then...they don't accept that global warming is happening?
It's not logical.
If you really want to find out about global warming then go to NASA.
Visit them in person.
Stop listening to Glenn Beck and Monckton.
Focus on the science.
Al Gore did not invent the internet...he invented global warming
Sure he did.
With a magical time machine.
It's a konspiracy.
Cedric,
As long as the people who are trying to panic everyone over this issue are behaving like they do, this is nothing but an interesting academic parlor game.
I don't believe it has any bearing on reality.
Seriously. They had the last UN Climate Change summit in Cancun.
As long as the people who are trying to panic everyone...
Who are these "people" that you refer to?
The guy down the road?
Some hippie?
A TV personality?
Are these the evil masterminds that are trying to panic you?
Or do you mean NASA and all the other scientific communities on the planet?
...this is nothing but an interesting academic parlor game.
So name them.
NAME THEM!
Who is playing this dastardly parlor game?
Is it NASA?
Spell it out. Stop being so vague.
Is NASA a culprit?
If they are not, then...how come they are not?
(Any Konspiracy has got to include NASA otherwise it would all collapse.)
What are the nuts and bolts of the operation? How do you think it all works?
I understand that that you think it's got "something" to do with "grants" and "money" but that only tells me the "why" and not the actual "how".
It's all a hoax.
Yes, I get it.
A hoax that Al Gore invented.
Yes, fine. Sure. He went back in a magical time machine and "did it all somehow".
But how? Give your wildest fantasies free flight. Speculate.
No holds barred. How do you get to create a grand, global scientific conspiracy that covers all the Earth sciences and all the scientific communities on the planet?
I don't believe it has any bearing on reality.
Science is the study of reality.
That's the whole point.
Your "belief" is just that, a belief.
If you want to know about what is happening to the Earth's climate...then you have to study it. If you can't study it...then you have to leave it to others who can actually go out there and study it.
These people are called scientists.
They work for a living.
The best ones work at NASA.
Stop listening to Glenn Beck and Monckton.
Focus on the science.
Thanks for the post. It's a very interesting subject and I think that sharing our opinions is important but not useful. We should all just see how we can imporve and take care of the enviroment. But cudos on the article.
