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.

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.

Here are a few facts.

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


The heat content of the oceans is growing and growing. That means that the greenhouse effect has not taken a pause and the cold sun is not noticeably slowing global warming. RealClimate: What ocean heating reveals about global warming

Global temperatures keep on rising.. http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs_v3/

Glaciers continue to melt. Global Climate Change, Melting Glaciers - National Geographic

Greenland ice sheet melting.. Greenland Ice Sheet Today | Surface Melt Data presented by NSIDC

What more evidence do you need?

I'm not bothering with everything as it would make no difference anyway.

Sorry dude, the facts speak for themselves.

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.

How about something based on actual science and not deliberate lies for a change? Do you think that might be possible? I did not think so.
