And you thought global warming theory was B.S? This is even moreridiculous. Controlling gravity

Theory. Based on science so sloppy and manipulated it would NEVER be taken seriously in any other field.

Global warming is an observation. It is undeniable. That the current
warming is caused by humans is a theory, but one which is accepted by
virtually every climate scientist.

Denial of AGW is precisely the same as believing the Earth is flat.
And people who think that way lack any credibility at all when it
comes to any intellectual ability.


The problem is, leftists and especially environmentalists latch onto every silly theory going with NO credulity, and their track-record for predictions is TERRIBLE! Peak oil, mass starvation by the 1980's, it's all their for people to see their gullibility.

The problem is idiots who don't know the difference between science
and politics. Don't fall off the edge of the Earth on your next trip.

The use of such labeling is always an intimate companion of racism, bigotry and the development of a closed mindset fashioned from raw propaganda. Explicit, repetitive descriptions born of blind hatred are just another form of overt racism.

The hate words are repeated so often that the lazy mind, which manufactured their own tottering edifices out of fear, begins to shorten and abuse words. As if in an attempt to soften the definition into meaningless mulch for their steaming midden of [self] hatred and loathing.

The tribal chants go right back to the dispersal out of Africa. And, are always used in the abuse of children's minds to ensure learning of fear and hatred by rote. Black is black and black is always bad. It is the always the absence of light. But far more indicative of a lack of enlightenment between the ears. Though often light can be seen when peering through one ear while the other points at the setting Sun.

The quality of discussion on this newsgroup is falling well below my threshold of acceptable adult behaviour. Give up or grow up. Get a life! [Of your own] Or get a room! Symbiotic relationships, between intractable, opposing forces is not a pretty sight when reduced to muddy trench warfare with the gleeful participants childishly throwing rotten tomatoes at each other. Tomato warfare is so yesterday! Enough!

That is what is known as a typo, you idiot. Your idiotic comment will be noted and used against when you make a typo.

(See, I can play that little word game too.)

Not the most common usage of the words. But as usual, you cherry pick.

Those two words are synonymous in most dictionaries.

Only because you choose to isolate the words from the context in which
I used them.

So you are using them in a "special" way that is meaningless outside of your little dream world.

Nonsense.

One can legitimately dismiss this issue by noting the near-universal
hypocrisy of the warmingistas, whether they be scientists,
pseudo-scientists, faux-eco celebs, liberal dimwits, conniving, power
hungry politicians, or any combination thereof.


Using the same criteria one can dismiss all the statements of the rich that
making them richer will help the poor. In this case there is plenty of
evidence that the opposite is true.

Henry Ford became very rich by producing a car that the masses could afford.

So your statement is wrong and your analogy stinks in any case, but thanks for playing.

Cut peterson some slack. Remember, as a kid he was HARMED by a 60mm refractor.
It's cruel to torment such a victim.
