Breaking News on the Global Warming front

They didn't, and you're bright enough to know it.

They did, and you've imbibed on too much Kool-Aide to recognize it.

I have split this topic off where it started to go off on a tangent. If you all would like to continue a discussion of GLOBAL WARMING, then feel free to do so on this thread. If you want to continue the arguments about evolution vs. ID, Christians vs. Muslims, Western culture vs. natural law, etc., then you will find the rest of the thread in the spiritual forum.

I think there's sufficient consensus that you should probably move Global Warming to the spiritual forum too

I wonder if we start talking about global warming in the other thread if MGB will be forced to put them back together...

Rev; predicts both the original and newly created thread will now die thanks to MGB.

Rev; also noticed that apparently MGB was responsible for the thread getting off track, based on where she split it. I demand she be banned for a period of no less than 7 years.

The beauty of it is, she can split, move, whatever she wishes Its her forum and unless she asks, I'm out of it

Yeah, but it's still totally her fault that it went off topic, so I blame her for destroying the thread.

How come every time we get a good and interesting conversation going, they have to come along and muck it up? Just another reason why this board is but a shadow of its former self.

BTW, it was Pipeman who complained.I say it's his fault.

[glennw56401]

BTW, it was for this very reason that some of us used to post everything in the RT. Conversations tend to stray from their original topic and the RT was a catch-all. But we got in trouble for that. Now we post in the political forum, and when a conversation turns, it has to be split and moved. All because one person can't bear to be exposed to religion. What are you scared of, Pipeman?

[dubya]

Remember the good ol days when everybody used to post on the main forum? Politics, religion, unions, everything went.

This place was poppin.

Now its like a bald guy with 5 hairs tryin to categorize each hair.

[revvassago]

Not to mention we weren't discussing spirituality. We were discussing the politics of religion.

[glennw56401]

Excellent point, Rev.

[pipeman]

And you guys were having such heated discussions that were causing Global Warming heh ????

[dak1]

Pipeman, just don't sell or throw away your shovel..OK...?..

Maybe you and Chad can get together and invent an electric shovel.

Photographer Captures World's Retreating Ice

In his new book Planet Ice: A Climate for Change, nature photographer Jim Martin chronicles his travels around the world to document the disappearing ice caused by global warming. "When I saw what I loved, literally, melting in front of my eyes, I wanted to alert people," he said. "We've lost a million square miles of ice, which is the same area as Alaska, Texas, and California, and we're predicted to lose another million in the next 20 years."

See his photos here.


"Cliamategate" messages do not disprove global warming, only show an attempt to stonewall skeptics.

The so-called ClimateGate emails show that scientists stonewalled skeptics and discussed hiding data, but the messages don't support claims that global warming science was faked, according to an exhaustive review by Associated Press. The 1,073 e-mails show that scientists harbored private doubts even as they told the world they were certain about climate change, but do not undercut the vast body of evidence showing man-made global warming because of greenhouse gas emissions.

Russian Agents Suspected of ClimateGate Hack

An investigation by The Mail on Sunday has discovered that the explosive hacked emails from the University of East Anglia were leaked via a small web server in the formerly closed city of Tomsk in Siberia.

Gore Fights Back on ClimateGate

"The basic facts are incontrovertible," Al Gore said in response to the ClimateGate controversy. "What do they think happens when we put 90 million tons up there every day? Is there some magic wand they can wave on it and presto!--physics is overturned and carbon dioxide doesn't trap heat anymore?"

Well, Jesus makes it go away of course! Sheesh, Mr. Gore! (PS, they DON'T think it's happening, despite the fact that I'm wearing short sleeves in December.)
