    NO!! I do NOT believe in this money racket. Way too much to go into but suffice to say that idiot A.G. stands to make plenty money off this crap. I just can't believe all the dumb a$$es that swallow it hook line and sinker. His "science" is fantasy and his "facts" are twisted. This is the same guy who tells people that we knew CO2 was a "green house gas" nearly 200 years ago. I mean come on. That terminology did not even exist then. We did not even have a periodic table 200 years ago much less know that CO2 was "a green house gas". I guess he wants us to stop breathing to save the planet. He also said that just a "few kilometers" under the earth's crust it is "millions of degrees". The suface of of the sun is only about 6,000 degrees. So by his logic the earth's core is hotter than the sun. He also says that in 10 years the polar ice caps will be gone. There have been recent studies not allowed to be published that show there are vast areas of ice comming back (100's of square miles) in that region. A polar bear drowns and this fool wants me to sell my truck and buy a four cylinder KIA to save the world. The number one green house gas is water vapor. Yes, that's right, water vapor. So all these eco cars that burn hydrogen and give off water vapor as exhaust are technically a higher contributer to "global warming" than my truck. No, I don't believe it! Yall stay safe.

    I do not believe in man made global warming. Most of the people pushing it the hardest are people who need to fade from power and recognition. They are using it as a means to gain control over everything they possibly can and line their pockets at the same time.

    I do believe that we are overcrowding, over-consuming, over polluting, and we should be trying to live a simpler life and not waste so much and make such a mess. In short I love the planet too and want to see it preserved. I just don't want to see that preserved planet ruled by the kinds of people who are pushing the green agenda because in the end they are about none of the things listed in this paragraph. It is about making money at the expense of anyone who is working for a living and buying the votes of those who want everything for free.

    I'd better stop or I'm going to get myself all worked up. I HOPE there will be CHANGE and the liberal elite will fall from power never to recover. Mac

    I'm actually a skeptic of it and of most science that isn't confirmed by the scientific method (meaning a theory that is made law only after repeatedly being tested time and time again). However, I am open to whatever info and opinions you wish to give, and am assuming that this isn't an illegal topic on the forum.
    I do not. I believe that the movement has been populated by socialists and communists that would like to see the modern democracies around the world brought to their knees so that we could all live in a one world commune, socialist utopia. Other than that, I don't have much of an opinion on the topic.

    I hope the proponents of the hole in the ozone...errr... Global warming dressed accordingly this winter. That'd be a great example of natural selection.

    That's why the polar bear died. He was trying to swim away from all those scantly clad hippies who were trying to give him a big old bear hug in the interest of a greener planet.

    No, I don't believe in global warming. It has been proven over and over again that the planet has regular changes. It's also proven that the earth has a natural "wobble" that will eventually change her poles. If they hadn't falsified so many numbers in the past they may have more backers.

    Yes, I believe in "global warming".
    I also believe in "global cooling"......I just don't think we have a lot to do, with either one.

    Cool Threads merged.

    This thread has been merged with the former! As I said before, I believe in global warming....the cause is from all of the hot air it's faithful believers spew forth.

    I believe that A.G. is a genius, in the Tooth Fairy, in Santa, and in the Easter Bunny. A.G. has officially declaired Jack Frost as a myth so I can't believe in Jack Frost anymore. I see things so clearly now that A.G. has brain washed me. O.K., now for reality...... I intended every bit of the previous statement as sarcasm. I feel less intelligent just typing his initials. He is such a J@CK @SS. Just in case I was not clear, I have no use for this lying, thief, spin doctor who prospers at the expense of the gullable. I also have very little use for those easily fooled, non mentally fortified, morons who follow every one of his deceitful words. Sorry if this offends anyone but this is just my opinion on the matter. Surely others will differ and you have my condolences. Yall take care.

    Well, it seems my original thread has been hijacked. However, I admit the original thread title sucked.

    I believe in science that follows the scientific method: meaning that theories are only taught as laws after they have been proven true time and time again. Therefore I don't really believe in global warming, macro-evolution, ect. Its not that they aren't proper hypothesis' or theories, but they are not facts (laws), IMO because they cannot be verified by just anyone time and time again. However, that doesn't mean that global warming is a lie- it just means that to me science is only law (and fact) once the documentation has been done- not just for disconnected pieces of the puzzle but the entire puzzle looked at and documented with facts. Like if they had confirmed documented proof that an amoeba turned into a frog, and then that same frog turned into a fish, and then that same fish turned into a horse, ect, all the way up to the gorilla turning into a person. So far they just have pieces of that puzzle that are speculations of scientists we never meet (chances are). Therefore both are theories; not laws.

    Most people can test the laws of physics and chemistry themselves with the right training (ie a degree in chemistry and a big enough microscope).

    The reason I asked about global warming though is that whether its true or not seems to depend on the future, which we obviously can't predict and evaluate scientifically. Maybe in the future the ice caps will melt all the way, and maybe that melting is due to global warming and not something else. So its not an issue of whether or not its a lie. Its an issue of it being taught as fact when its still just a theory. Sometimes in design classes we are asked how we will design to address global warming, as if its already been decided that its true.
