I have no idea, I think I might be to blame Mrs. M. I said something in a post that went something like this:"Yes, and I suppose humans can cause global warming too" Keep in mind that's just a paraphrase, but it sparked something in here where it doesn't belong, after defending my statement, I tried to lead it back to the subject of this thread, but some people are trying to beat a dead horse on that. Again, I'm sorry, I'll take the blame for the global warming direction this thread has taken.

Great! Thanks.

What do you mean with destroying the earth? The stance is "merely" that we are capable to shift the balances so that the environment becomes inhabitable (and when humans talks of inhabitable environment, it usually means inhabitable to humans themselves).
So you don't believe we are capable of that? That's ok. But why is it important for you to refute claims that we are capable of it?

I can tell you why I think it's darn important to provide evidence of such claims. But even if it was possible to provide evidence that we can't wreck the environment on a global scale (which it isn't since we can't prove a negative) I don't see the point of attempting to provide such evidence. Why does it seem to be important to you?

Pay close attention to what I say, I never said we couldn't destroy our lives, we can do that easily, but the earth would remain, and eventually recover.

Here's a quote and I can provide the link for this as well if you like, but it refutes the claim that there is evidence that humans are causing global warming.

Quote:
There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gasses is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and disruption of the Earth’s climate. Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth.

Because, like the quote above stated, there is no evidence to back the claim of human caused global warming.

Global warming is a bunch of hype. Its Nature taking its course. We had over heated Hot weather when dinosaurs roamed earth millions of years ago. Now how can that be mans fault?

I know, but Liberals can only win with victims and fear.

Actually, a lot of conservative (and primarily christian) folks here have been playing the "fear card" with regards to gay marriage. It's not like liberals have a monopoly on that...

I haven't seen any Conservatives playing the "fear card" as you've put it with the abomination that is gay marriage.

And people with thick accents don't believe they sound funny.

I wouldn't expect you to see it, as you're one of the worst offenders...

Unless we detonated them in the same area and punctured the crust.

I'm sorry about the coward thing, but Liberal and coward (mainly because of the Liberal fear-mongering about the war on terror) are starting to mean the same thing.Not to me.




Liberals win elections by playing on peoples fears, they need victims to promote their socialist agenda. Simple as that.
You need to read more science.
