This same criteria must be applied to the pro-warming folks as well. When will any of you be honest enough to do that?
Err, I do apply it to the pro-warming folks… and I find that many of them may have ulterior motives for believing what they believe as well.
LET ME BE CLEAR: I have no idea if Global Warming is True of False, or both (happening in some sense, but all of the science is currently bunk). I am NOT a physicist, not weather expert, I’ve never been to the North Pole, nor have I been to the Sahara. But, see… neither are most of the people commenting here. THAT IS THE POINT. Look at some of these posts smugly asserting that Global Warming is not true because of an idiotic website, which appears more as a shill for propaganda than honest science! The posters here appear to have done nothing more than a quick google search to find words that support their view of the issue. That’s no different than Iraq Body Count cherry picking data to support their nonsense.
I have no problem saying “I don’t know” when it comes to the issue of Global Warming… just as I said “I don’t know” when it came to Iraq and WMD’s. That, my friend, is honesty. What’s going on here is just validation for world view that may be right or wrong, without being bothered by honesty, truth or objectivity.
