Just goes to show that everyone, including atheists, search for a god.

Usually we these folks, it's either government or a human ideal they worship.

Global warming is just the hot air from the non-productive elites. Eliminate them and the problem is solved. We need common sense applications of unbiased science, not schemes designed to give the parasites like Al Gore a life of extreme luxury.

They are so high on their horses that they actually think they can play god and prevent climate change which is going to happen regardless. Humans are grains of sand on a giant beach, we are powerless to control nature. The last time the libs had their way, they put chemicals into the upper atmosphere to try and fix the hole in the ozone, but only made things worse. It is documented that the agents used are 5,000 more times of a greenhouse gas then co2! DOH!!!!! Dumb eletists!

In a funny screwed up way this is right. The religion is the religion of science as opposed to ignorance.

The entertaining aspect of all this is that ACES has passed the House and is moving forward nicely in the Senate. There's really not much the RW can do but post idiot denials on Internet sites.

Everyone needs something to work for beyond themselves that they feel will make the world better, and it's a workable solution. There are those on either side of the issue that go way too far to the extremes, which seems the fate of humanity that no matter the issue some one can take it too far.

I don't think it's as as people like to scream, or everything is hunky dory. Waste is undesirable anyways, and best to cut the inefficiencies.

I didn't expect much different in the article from a troll who bashes anything outside extreme conservative views, even more moderate ones. It's always fun to see what is posted next.

Sure................

So is gravity and the fact that socks stick together when they come out of the dryer.

what is your thing with global warming? True or not, you seem to spend an awful lot of time obsessing about it.
