The Environmental Protection Agency has submitted a "finding" to the White House Office of Management and Budget that will force the Obama administration to decide whether to limit greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act. If adopted, new laws and regulations will likely follow that have the potential to change our lifestyles and limit our freedoms. None of these laws and regulations will be preceded by debate, they will be imposed on us by fundamentalist politicians and scientists who have swallowed the Kool-Aid and declared global warming as fact; end of discussion.
On the Discovery Channel last week, Tom Brokaw hosted a special called "Global Warming: The New Challenge." While promoting the piece, Brokaw declared, "there is a growing consensus that global warming is real and getting worse." Actually, there is a growing body of opinion that global warming is a fraud perpetrated by liberal politicians and their scientific acolytes who want more control over our lives.
Whenever politicians declare a crisis, or an emergency, watch out. Chances are this means they want to impose something before the public discovers the truth.
One of the definitions of consensus is "general agreement or concord; harmony." Any honest assessment of scientific opinion leads to the conclusion that there is significant disagreement on global warming within the scientific community among those with expertise in climatology and related fields. Yet many politicians want us to believe all of science is on board with manmade global warming and that we must act now to save the planet and ourselves from catastrophe (catastrophe is another word politicians like to use when imposing their agendas).
You know something is up when prominent apostles of global warming, especially former vice president and Nobel Laureate, Al Gore, refuse to debate or discuss the issue with any scientist who takes a contrary view. Some religious fundamentalists impose various codes of behavior and dress on their adherents and threaten expulsion (if not death) for those who fail to acquiesce to their dictates. Is it not fundamentalist science to ignore any evidence that casts doubt on global warming? For a treasure trove of information that debunks the "science" of global warming visit www.globalwarminghoax.com.
For global warming fundamentalists, no amount of contradictory information will dilute their faith. Science makes mistakes, as did NASA when it published data on global warming trends in an effort to gauge the warmest years in U.S. history. Their temperature statistics were flawed. The year 1998 was not the hottest year on record, as NASA originally stated, it was 1934 -- the year Wiley Post discovered the jet stream.
In New York earlier this month, more than 600 scientists, economists, legislators and journalists from many nations met for the second International Conference on Climate Change. Numerous presentations debunked with documentation what they called the pseudoscience and dictatorial intentions promoted by the UN, the European Union and the Obama administration. If there was media coverage of the event, I missed it.
The keynote speaker at the gathering was Vaclav Klaus, president of the Czech Republic and the European Union. Klaus described environmentalism as a new collectivist religion that doesn't just want to change the climate, but us as well. Klaus rejected the executive summary published by the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change as all politics and environmental activism, "not science."
The Australian newspaper recently reported on three senior Japanese scientists who separately engaged in climate-change research and "have strongly questioned the validity of the manmade global warming model that underpins the drive by the UN and most developed-nation governments to curb greenhouse gas emissions." One of the scientists, Kanya Kusano, told the newspaper, "I believe the anthropogenic (manmade) effect for climate change is still only one of the hypotheses to explain the variability of climate."
Shunichi Akasofu, founding director of the University of Alaska's International Arctic Research Centre added, "Before anyone noticed, this hypothesis has been substituted for truth."
Truth is sometimes inconvenient, as Al Gore likes to say. But that cuts both ways. Truth can also be inconvenient when it shines light on propaganda. Not to allow for a full-fledged debate on global warming is censorship, a popular practice in totalitarian societies and many fundamentalist religions and cults.
Unless you're the author of the article, or have two screen names, no one called you anything. You just jumped into the middle of the thread and started hurling insults when you could've logically (but not factually) defended your position.
And, if you deny the fact that there are indeed Evolution Nazis who refuse to tolerate any belief other than their own, you really need to get out more.
Now, run along and evolve into someone a little less defensive.
I think its cool that if a number of folks want me banned, then it happens. MonroeDNA
This site was founded by a contrarian. And now is regulated by a guy that is anti-libertarian. Unlike the founder, who we sent personal checks to, the late, great Jim Rob.
Yes, I have been here since 1997. Yes, I once sent personal checks, many checks. Yes, they have dried up.
The libertarian spirit is gone from here. Now it is just navel-gazing.
No one said anything about anyone being banned. All I took you to task for was jumping to conclusions and slinging around names. The rest you’ve imagined.
The Darwin Fish symbol (which is your handle) is a direct satirical attack on the foundation of the Christian faith. The Fish Symbol (which you mock) was the sign of the ICTHUS which was used by early Christians to identify each other and to avoid persecution or death by the Roman Government.
The Ichtus was an acronym for Jesus Christ God Son Savior. By putting feet on the fish and replacing the IXOYE for DARWIN, you mock Christ, who created the fish.
You claim to believe in God, do you also claim to believe in Christ?
If so, why do you mock Him by your Freeper handle?
Yeah, well it just happened, briefly.
Not sure about Christ—so many claims. I don’t believe in the water-walking thing.
But I do believe in GOD. In fact, I know God. Cool dude.
God is more than Jesus. Right?

Like I’ve said before, I cannot defend against stupidity.
After reading the first several posts, I’m stating this thread as exhibit A why the Republicans are impotent to do anything about the ongoing onslaught.
If you cannot respect our rules for posting here, ie, our “regulations” you are certainly welcome to post elsewhere.
Thankyouverymuch
Yeah, you are right. It is satirical, but not why you think. It is satirical, just to point out that some religious folks hate evolution. I was raised Catholic, but with science. I don’t understand why believing , knowing 4evolution is evil.
So yes, I do have a Darwin fish on my car. I believe in God, with all my heart, just wonder why a bunch of folks get upset with the idea of evolution.
See tagline.
My only hindrance is that I don't have a ping list. [excerpt]Tsk, tsk...

Yeah, you are right. No excuse for stupidity. And you were more than tolerant. F’d up a bunch of times.
For the un knowing: JR did what he should have. I was obnoxious, again and again, and then dumb enough to dare him to ban me. Smart, huh.
That does sound like a threat to me. Undeniable.
The rules are: “NO racism or violence in posts.”
So, it looks like he wasn’t banned for being a libertarian. Looks like it was because he was calling for the death of an ex-president.
Then why do you mock early Christian martyrs and their symbol?
To my knowledge, no Darwinist has been subjected to a centuries long persecution that saw them and their families cruelly murdured by authorities for their faith.
If you say so. I thought is was for other things. The post that you quoted does not make much sense at all.
We all change. Thanks for being a small part of this.
You are a good guy, and amazing what you have accomplished. I know I have been a pain in the ass, but you are a model for us all. Like it or not!
You are out of your mind.
no, you just aren’t that interesting
My ancestors fought in the Bore Wars...
