Except for the clothing, this is no doubt what the theocrats who persecuted Galileo looked like

Yes. "Anti-science-ists" come in all shapes and sizes.

Even Galileo was an "anti-science-ist" about some things.

Galileo refused to accept Kepler's scientific determination that the planetary orbits are elliptical, not circular.

Imagine that! Galileo let his belief, that planets needed to follow a "perfect" circular path, trump scientific evidence.

Galileo also refused to accept the fact that the moon influenced the earth's tides.

Admit nothing, deny everything, make counter accusations.

Straight out of the desperate liars play book.

If the SOB hadn’t hidden his algorithm from review I might have believed him, but that coupled with this proves his guilt.

To be fair to Hansen, he has not claimed that 1998 was the warmest year. That was NOAA, not NASA.

But to be unfair to Hansen...”going bananas”?...so much for professionalism.

This guy Hansen is a typical union protected government employee. This bunch of leaches have to be fired somehow. They are just reporters for their brothers and sisters in Hollywood.

Oh, and by the way, the psuedo Republican governorator of California was/is (?) a noted user of steroids. That must give him a supporter in Barry Bonds but is just another instance of Hollywood fluff being hugged by the leftwing nutcases. They are stampeding the ignorant into buying into the human influence causing global warming if in fact gloval warming is really happening. Not too long agon this same bunch was getting frantic over an approaching ice age.

A little known secret about scientists is that all data is not considered equal. The source of the data is often factored in to determine its credibility. For example I have known many professors who did not consider even peer reviewed papers from authors in India as credible since so much junk originated there. One even had a saying, “Everything works in India”. Beign skeptical about the data of others is part of science, therefore the reputation of the investigator is important. I don’t see Galileo refusing to believe the data from some he may have considered as questionable as being anti-science.

Of course to dare to point out the slightest error is heresy.

Be prepared for the trials and executions in the not-too-distant future. Especially if a Democrat wins the presidency, the envirowackos will become truly scary.

Scientific consensus during Galileo's time.

The "Geocentric Universe" and the "Epicycles".

“if you don’t believe my story of global warming, I’ll just jump off this building. I will, you better believe me or else I’ll cry!” Say’s Hansen to his boyfriend after a lover’s spat.......

True.

The Left are Death Worshippers, anti-Creation, anti-Life, anti-Freedom.

That is why they universally support:

Abortion.
Euthanasia.
Socialism.
Taxation.
Government Control.
Litigation.
Islamofascists.

And oppose:

Free Enterprise.
Intellectual Property Rights.
Freedom.
America.
