... You wrote: And once again, the "faithful" keep proving my point. It is their own "religion" that must be believed, anyone questioning their faith is deemed a heritic. The gullible faithful GW alarmists accept the simple line of "man is at fault" which conviently fits their political slant as well. You're as rabid as those you consider to be alarmists. However, you have, in the past, revealed your reasons for being so: You think some sort of environmental gestapo will be knocking on your door, attempting to control your habits. P. Fritz has posted numerous links to unbiased, properly researched and footnoted academic journals. The other side has posted partisan rants from agenda-ridden loonie farms (one proudly trumpets its most widely read article as something called "America the Titanic") which all cite one or two politically-infused "studies" wbich have been thoroughly shredded by the real academic community (the Mann "hockey stick" for example). Your description of an "environmental gestapo" "controlling (our) habits" is quite accurate - all government acts are some variation on prohibition ("You can't do X") or compulsion ("You must do Y"). An example of prohibition is exploration on seven-one-hundreths of ANWR; and example of compulsion is the forty-odd different formulations of summer gasoline (thankfully suspended for this year). These are controls that you either agree to, or you get the laws changed. But, we all pick & choose the ones we like, right? I'd be outraged if a child molester got no jail time, but from his point of view, it would be perfect. I see ancient vehicles belching clouds of blue smoke and I know that's perfect for the owners - nobody stops them. I'd like to see them removed from their vehicles and told that until they can afford to run their business, which includes vehicle maintenance, they are now officially out of work. |
