You didn't answer my question.
And you aren't seriously trying to pass off some mumbo jumbo fairy tale handed down through the ages and translated untold times as scientific evidence are you?
Especially with a link that doesn't work.

Peter, I haven't really been following this thread, but tell me do you believe that man is or isn't, at least in part, responsible for global warming, climate change or whatever you might call it, or do you think God did it?
Good to know you have a working printer.Quote:

Do I think God is responsible no I do however see there is a lot of historical evidence that temperature changes to the earth have been happening through out the history of the earth. I hear a lot of talk of carbon dioxide leading the way of man made contributions to climate change, I feel the earth is more than capable in dealing with carbon dioxide
an interview with Bill Gates that touches on this , but looking at future energy sources that do not emit co2Quote:

Yes, I visited the site itself. Your link gives a 404.
However, on reading some other articles, it's clear that only a blithering brainwashed idiot would believe that nonsense.
e.g.
This is typical of Ken Ham's blithering pseudoscience.Quote:
Either the rock record is the evidence of millions of years, or it is largely the evidence of Noah’s Flood. It can’t be both. If we believe the earth is billions of years old and shows no sign of a worldwide Flood, then that belief contradicts the biblical account of Noah. If we accept God’s testimony regarding the Flood, we cannot logically believe in millions of years.
The "fact" that the bible said there was a worldwide flood is "evidence" that rocks are not millions of years old.
Forget the fact that even 1,000 years ago man had neither the technology nor the communications ability to identify and verify a "worldwide" flood.
How the fuck can you expect anyone to take this shit seriously?
You really don't even know what the word "scientific" means, do you?
:rofl:
If you believe Young Earth theories and creationism then there's no point talking to you about science because you obviously don't know what science is:Quote:

Nothing in there about fairy tales from a book about a Jewish zombie whose married mother was a virgin and is riddled with other inconsistencies and contradictions. That's not science. It's not even plausible fiction.
In the same vein, another link you may find useful.

There's a lot of facts on that site that are being suppressed by the unholy scientific conspirators.
It is Ken Ham's blithering pseudoscience. Answers in Genisis was founded by Ham...now he just tries to defraud state governments to build a replica ark to hock as a theme park. His very simplistic and basic objection to science of the past is that the scientist was not there therefore there was no observation therefore the science is not certain therefore the bible is true. He also objects to the underlying principle of uniformitarianism in science and claims that processes can be different if god wills it that way. He is a grade A nut ball.Quote:

Just as you require evidence for climate change, produce the evidence for God and the lost will follow.

Because there's legitimate scientific critique and then there are wackjobs that dress up their theories with pseudo-science in order to give it legitmacy it simply neither has nor deserves, that's why.
Just looking at the first one:
Such utter rubbish. None of the leading theories have problems - they just have unanswered questions, more of which get answered as time goes by.Quote:
Note also that nobody knows how the Moon got to be in its present orbit. All of the proposed theories as to where it came from have serious problems. It is a complete mystery — unless it was designed that way from the beginning.

He gets even worse at the second:
Frankly the author is clearly neither a reservoir engineer nor a geologist. But he doesn't appear to know it. The earth's crust is constantly on the move - that's why we have earthquakes, and it's how most oil reservoirs were formed.Quote:
When oil wells are drilled, the oil is almost always found to be under great pressure. This presents a problem for those who claim "millions of years" for the age of oil, simply because rocks are porous. For as time goes by, the oil should seep into tiny pores in the surrounding rock, and, over time, reduce the pressure. However, for some reason it doesn't. Perhaps because our oil deposits were created as a result of Noah's Flood only about 4600 years ago? Some scientists say that after about 10,000 years little pressure should be left
And different types of rock have different levels of porosity and permeability. Has the gibbering fool never heard of oil shale?
I can't be bothered reading the rest of this bloody gibberish because it's fairly obvious that its all going to be that bad.
If you believe any of that nonsense, I have a nice bridge to sell you.
All a rather unholy alliance of vested interests, self deceivers and jesus wheezers.
There is a logic behinf the jesus wheesers like peters. As a young earther there si a conflict between the evidence of global warming and his faith based knowledge that the earth is less than 10k years old.
If he were to acknowledge the evidence of global warming, he would be acknowledging that his faith based beliefs about the age of the earth are wrong. And like all good religious nutters.... the words in the book always override reality.... rather like the nutters in iran, the middle east, africa and america to name a few.
I would feel sorry for him, if it were not for the damage he and his kind of creating for our children
