My PCP (whom LSoScare drove out of business) was always bemoaning how little we as a race really know about how our bodies work. She was wise enough to know that we're still confined to the shallow end of the pool, so to speak. One of the reasons I kept her as my PCP for 30 years was that wisdom.

That's beyond the point. The point is that you still trust the doctor to cure your ailments or at least mitigate them despite the fact that A, there is still a lot that we don't know. B, our understanding of the human body has changed in much the same way our understanding of climate change has changed. and D, that despite those changes, you still trust medical professionals to be able to heal or at least make things to not be as bad. Climatologist would be your doctor in this case.
Yes, there is a lot we don't know and just like medicine, there is a lot of guess work. Just as you can be sick, the Earth is sick...and maybe we should put some faith into climatologists just as you put faith into your doctor.

The envrios, on the other hand, go around pretending that they know everything, when in fact they can't prove their claims at all. Hell, that can't even decide what their claims are.

So, can they be a bit prideful? Yeah, sure, and if that's the case then they as a field have a lot to learn. But that does not impact their work anymore that your PCP. You liked her honesty but that honesty had 0 impact on her ability to diagnose and treat you or anyone.

And the dishonesty of the enviros has just as big an impact.
When one of the high priests of their religion, a member of the UN's IPCC? is quoted publicly and stands behind his quote stating that "we use environmental policy to redistribute wealth", guess what happens to the credibility of the movement?

There are also a crapload of leaked e-mails showing their data is faulty, if not outright falsified, as I recall.
This is not a newly developing stinkfishpot. it's been going on for years, and there have been more than enough adequately documented bits and pieces over the years for me to come to an irreversible conclusion. It's not my fault if you choose to ignore it.

And that's what that guy who almost shot up that pizza place thought about Clinton.

Originally posted by Annoyed View PostI'm not defending the guy who almost shot up the pizza place (or anyplace else for that matter) but there are similarities here. Just as with Clinton, there has been a continuing stream of damning information coming out over a long enough time period, that there has to be something stinky going on. Yes, as with Clinton, no one has brought charges or proven anything in a court of law, but with the continuous stream of smoke wafting out of the windows, there has to be a fire there.
