Jon,
You're missing the point I was making. The "vast majority of scientists
who are knowledgeable in this area" are making their living on grants.
They have an investment on making you believe what they are


Come on... the vast majority of scientists believe in science before they
believe in grant money. Their primary belief structure is based on seeking
the truth.

telling you so they can continue getting grants which is how they make
their living. They don't have to tell you the truth, and in this case they
aren't, they just need you to buy into their story so they can keep
getting paid. Bishop Al is on target because he's parroting those grant
receiving "scientists". And yes, it IS a bad thing for AG to be making
money on this, because he's hoodwinking people into falsly believing
things that are going to ultimately cost them their livelyhood, their
savings, and their future. And he wants, more than anything, to be a King.
No problem here with someone wanting to make money, even lots of


This is just your rant and certainly your opinion, but you sure make it
sound like fact. It isn't.

it. But gaining control and wealth on the backs of the rest of us using
false pretenses is always wrong. Once again, reputable scientists - the
ones who have no investment, say that we do not yet have the ability to
interpret the research one way or the other. Until that day when they can,
Al is still a leech. And if it ultimately IS true that there is global
warming, it still isn't Bishop Al's place to tell me without real solid
science that it is MY fault and even less his place to tell me to change
my meager lifestyle - especially when HE is polluting more than any of us.
False gods...

Look how you refer to him.. Bishop Al. This makes your whole argument sound
foolish.

I have no problem if you don't believe humans are causing GW. It's your
right to believe or not. I choose to believe that it's better to be safe
than sorry, and the way to be safe doesn't hurt the economy if done
properly. There are always going to be people hurt by new ways of doing
things. That's life.
