That is EXACTLY CORRECT

The cornerstone of science is to DISPROVE THE NULL HYPOTHESIS. Liberal idiots have the basic principle of science backwards.

In the "science" of liberalism, one makes an outrageous contention and states that it is true of no one can disprove it! This is global warming. It is the same as my contending that there is a city of gonmes in the center of the earth. As you cannot disprove it, it must be true!

I am continually shocked by the idiot liberals who do not seem to understand this very basic principle of science, yet claim the "highground" of science. Oddly these individuals have no scientific background whatsoever, have never published in the literature (probably never read an actual journal), never edited scientific papers, and have no clue as to what constitutes a valid scientific analysis.

It is another example of the Dunning-Krueger effect.

The denier's problem is that there is no data that refutes global warming.....If there were you wouldn't keep hiding it.

Who exactly is refuting global warming? We know that ice ages and warming periods come and go.

Do you think that mammoth skeleton they recently found in Texas was enduring the summers we have now?

We know the climate has been changing for billions of years, while other people think that the climate should suddenly become stagnant.

And you have no facts to back up your bad theories. All we keep hearing is some apocalyptic message or other that if we don't return to the caves and stop creating heat, the earth will burn to a crisp.

His issue is humans are bad because humans are creating all the climate problems.

As he (sanspeur) types on a computer which to manufacture causes all sorts of negative impact on the environment.

I guess he's like Al Gore. It's ok to fly everywhere on a private jet and leave your car running for an hour in a parking lot to keep it cool just as long as you are telling others not to do it.

I live in the present where weather and climate change.

You are the one who wants to pick a date and have the climate remain frozen in time.

Oh dear. I thought this thread was about some rapper called "Ice Core" who could not find a date.

My bad.

Welcome to science 101 you should have learned in middle school.

Get a middle school text book about doing experiments and it will explain this issue.

It's not a nail in the coffin, it's another person didn't pay well enough attention in school and waves their ignorance around like a champions flag.
Of course, but only if they prove your shaky theory. Ignore the ones that don't.
