THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!

No, it doesn't.

Stop fibbing.

I call bullshit.

I'm not saying I agree with the theory but ...

Could you explain why you call "bullshit", Stu?

I recommend anyone who is worried to read one of Michael Crichton's newer novels called "State of Fear." Then you won't keep hearing the one-sidedness of this argument.

I call bullshit.

Could you explain why you call "bullshit", Stu?

No reason

[the wrath of diddy]

LMFAO! Of course you don't believe in global warming. You're a neocon bushbot ditto head. You have no choice but to believe the commander and chimp over science on this issue.

No reason

So there is NO reason for you to call bullshit, yet you called it?

WTF? Are you on crack?

Do you often call bullshit on subjects for no reason at all?

And if you do why should I value your opinion on anything at all?

You MUST have a reason.

Maybe you disagree with th article? That's a reason. Fuck, I didn't even read the article - you could have fucking lied to me and I wouldn't have known.

But "No Reason"? WTF?

I was actually hoping you would have something rather intelligent to post on the subject, which is why I called you on it.

What a waste of my time.

Fuck!

[the wrath of diddy]

Republicans don't believe in science.

The polar ice caps are melting because God is farting in the general direction of the northern liberal intellectual elitist freedom haters. Homosexter havens like New England and New York will be below sea level because God is angry. He will no longer tolerate your blatant secular paganist faggery.

An article from the Christian Science Monitor, eh?

I believe I witnessed a similar story in God's Wrath Weekly.

Don't be fooled by the name, the CSM is a first-rate newspaper. To the extent that they have a religious agenda--and they do--they are very above board about it and pretty much confine it to editorials that are clearly labeled as such.

When it comes to their reporting, it stacks up with the best of them in quality and objectivity.

On the original topic, I think the consensus is clearly developing among reasonable scientists that global warming is occurring. Unfortunately none of the important details are known. Is it really due to human activity? Is it reversible at all? Is it part of a short cycle? A long cycle? How severe will it be? Is it triggering another ice age? Is it delaying another ice age?

There's nothing even remotely resembling a consensus on any of those questions.

Stu - are you taking notes?
