Think what way? The way the EPA does? They have deemed co2 a pollutant if you havn't heard. Or are you saying "wow" because I think that's an insane conclusion to come to for the EPA? If you believe what the EPA says then YOU are contributing to global warming every time you breath. Better get ya a carbon scrubber and carry it everywhere you go to "do your part". You know you got "skin in the game" like the orator likes to say. Please save the planet for us all.

Maybe you would have benefited from some type of science class.

You never answered my questions, have you reviewed the curriculum?

Maybe you are against all types of science because it threatens your religion or Jesus?

how typical...

"An Inconvenient Truth" has been presented to an entire generation of young impressionable children as science and I'm sure it's still shown to many. That is what concerns many people like me that instead of science they will be pushing a political message.

You obviously have no idea what science is.

Sorry, but you are the one who has no idea what science is.

As I said, much in the scientific world cannot be proven. The poster child for unproven science is AGW.

I think they banned it in the UK because of all the errors it contains.

...government indoctrination??? where do you come up with this stuff?!!?!??!?!
People like Glen Beck have thrown this word around until it stuck somewhere. The word has been rendered meaningless in these forums to anyone with half a brain...

Example:

- Obama is indoctrinating kids into becoming socialist, communist, jihadists when he gives a televised speech on the first day of school about the importance of education.

- The First Lady is indoctrinating the nation's youth by promoting healthy food and excercise.

Now they are being indoctrinated by being educated in the sciences and "greener" lifestyles.

In other words, becoming a fat high school drop out that is slovenly, envoronmentally ignorant and piggish is the way to go.

I'm guessing you defend global warming nonsense because it has become your religion like many others.
