Let me see, since it stopped warming over 17 years ago, the ice pack recovered, its a safe bet the sea level rise will be minimal, if any.
No big deal.
It's stopped warming atmospherically..... check on those oceans son. They cover 75% of the planet. You do realize global warming includes both the atmosphere and the oceans?

I have no prophets.... Oh wait I get it. You are ignorantly tying AGW to religion, much like creationists tie evolution to a religion. Cute.
Well I have no prophets and science has no prophets.
You say that like it would be a bad thing. Shorter shipping routes means less transportation costs, which means lower prices for the consumer. I do not know in what reality you live in, but where I come from lower prices for the consumer is a good thing.
An awesome argument. I suppose you support slave labour for similar reasons, yes? No? Good. We're agreed that some things are more important than filling your SUV with cheap gas and plastic Chinese crap. Now it's just a matter of priorities. Your convenience isn't one of mine.
Core samples, tide gauge readings, and, most recently, satellite measurements tell us that over the past century, the Global Mean Sea Level (GMSL) has risen by 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 centimeters). However, the annual rate of rise over the past 20 years has been 0.13 inches (3.2 millimeters) a year, roughly twice the average speed of the preceding 80 years.Sea Level Rise -- National Geographic

Cherry picking data again I see.
Why the last 20 years? You realize that we have global mean sea level changes every year for the last 130 years, right? So why did you pick just the last two decades? The global mean sea level has increased by 195 mm (7.7 inches) in the last 130 years, or an average increase of 1.5 mm per year. Everything else you spew is obviously a deliberate lie to support an AGW agenda.
Global surface temperatures have both increased and declined over the last 130 years, according to NASA. There has been a grand total of an 0.80°C increase and a grand total of a 0.29°C decrease in surface temperatures, resulting in a net average increase of 0.51°C (0.918°F) over the last 130 years.
