Are you a "believer" a "denier" ... or an "agnostic"?
When you put together a large group of people who are all certain that they can predict what will happen 100 years from now, a group that demonizes those who stray even a little from their beliefs, a group claiming that if everyone follows them, we will be saved, but if they don't we will be doomed - then in most cases, that group is called a religion.
Like most religions, this group also elevates the importance of mankind, so much so that humans are viewed as having more power over the globe than all other forces - more power than the wind, more power than the sea, more power than the molten magma under our feet, and even more power than the Sun. Yes - more power than the Sun! Like religions that once believed that the Earth was the center of the Solar System, and that the Sun revolved around the Earth, this group believes that the forces of nature on Earth revolve around what mankind does or does not do, and that even the power of the Sun is insignificant when compared to the mighty power of almighty human beings to affect their own destiny!
Most of you already know who I am talking about, so I ask again - Are you a "believer" a "denier" ... or an "agnostic"?
As for me, I would say that I am an agnostic, but leaning toward being a denier. And as most of you know, this post has nothing to do with God.
I was agnostic for about 2-3 months years ago. Now I am a full-bore denier! .03% carbon in the atmosphere. Trace gas. Just let that sink in. 0.03%, and we think anything we do can control that, or it impacts weather globally? Really?
LMAO!
LMAO!
DENIER!! I will always remember those illiterate, mentally retarded Americans spending millions, if not billions of dollars on cold weather clothing and emergency supplies for the new Ice Age back in the 70’s.
People in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and California purchasing gear suitable for the Antarctic and Arctic in the middle of February. Freeze dried vegetables and canned and dried meats for when all the crops failed and the livestock died because of the ice that would reach down to the southern boarder.
Remember the headlines of the major newspapers and news magazines? “ THE ICE AGE IS COMING AND WERE ALL GONNA DIE “.
Well that was the scientific consensus of the day, and it was just as accurate as the current scientific consensus of today’s IDIOTS.
Oh ya, and all fixes will drive the cost of living up for me and my family.
Even if there is warming, Man has zero, zilch, nada to do with it.
Agnostic. We can’t say yet whether temperatures have “Paused”, “Peaked”, or “Plateaued”.
noone can possibly have neough faith to be an atheist....impossible!
