Maybe if you would read the facts, you wouldn't waste your time with nonsense.

Unfortunately, you live in the clouds in Seattle. It's like you live in another country, to be honest.

Don't worry though, when Boeing leaves and many of your other companies that cannot compete globally due to the high cost of living associated with your region, you will then be forced into reality.

As opposed to the propaganda machine of the Rockefellers/International Bankers who pay scientists to create alarming science?

Where, pray tell, should I be getting my facts? I hope you say CNS or perhaps some sort of Heritage Foundation website. What ever happened to Wattsupwirththat? You guys used to be such fangirls of that blog!

I always find it funny that the arm chair blowhards copying and pasting here have atmospheric science all figured out.

I find it funny that people who think man-made global warming exist and aren't even scientists...

The person I got this from was a credible source. I admitted in the opening post, opening line that this wasn't my work, but it does make sense.

If you want to waste your life on nonsense issues, that's your prerogative, but believe me, when I say there are far more pressing issues at hand.

And no, I'm not talking about gay sex or racism. I'm talking about, will you have a job in the future?

"You guys." Interestingly enough, you categorize me when this is my first post on this issue.

I just choose not to waste my time on ridiculous issues. Why don't you debate those points being made instead of whining about how I'm wrong, and you're right.

Prove it.

Prove that there is no earth and no sun. Prove your assertions.

If you copy and pasted in the first place, what makes me think that you could even form a coherent argument against my assertions?

The sun is not causing the recent trend in warming: if it were, the equator would be warming up faster than the poles (its not), and the warming pattern would be following the sunspot cycle (its not). Its not due to the Milank. Cycles because the warming would be happening a lot more slowly. Also, we've been out of the last orbit induced ice age for a good 10,000 years now.

But hey, keep posting pictures from 8th grade Earth Science textbooks and try to convince us that pictures of the solar system "prove" that climate change doesn't exist.

And now I feel ridiculous for wasting time on yet another sponsored thread.

What a cop out. You can't refute one point. If I didn't understand what was being posted, I wouldn't have the insight to post it in the first place.

Use your head.

Regarding an ice age, you do realize that certain events can cause a rapid end to the ice don't you? Such as an asteroid event?

You didn't think about that one, did you?

But you know everything right? You know it all. You're just another narcissist that thinks he knows it all, but doesn't know a damn thing, but what he's been told by another narcissist.

The cycle continues.

These two ^^^ cannot debunk anything.. One of them ust has to cling to any thread of hope that will spite big oil guys who despise homosexuals. It's the typical "go with the flow"

But thank you for a fairly comprehensive list of most of the mechanisms that earth scientists have explored and rejected to explain what we are currently experiencing.
^^^ THIS guy just did absolutely nothing but took a sophists approach to saying "I believe the other guys because they are 'S'cientists"...and also, debunking nothing. LOL
