No. People support the theories of climate change/global warming because 98% of the world's estimated
6 million scientists accept that the data are accurate and supported by empirical evidence.

To liken the beliefs of Christianity with those of climate science is truly absurd. The former is based entirely
on fantasy, superstition, and and ancient folk tales, whilst the latter are based on current, manifested, viable
evidence. And you rightly should be concerned about your input into this dialogue, as rather than supply any
meaningful evidence that matches any of the sciences, you've simply dismissed the evidence cited by those
that accept climate change theories. This is made obvious by your misinterpretation of several of the gas laws.
Quote:But, maybe this theory of global warming fills a void. It revolves around human activity being so significant that it can bring the world to an end, viz., the flood. It provides a theory of how one can help change the world for the good through good deeds and it creates a division between followers and "deniers".
LOL... this is laughable, and almost impossible to respond to academically. What "flood" are you talking about?
Hopefully not the kids' Noah's Ark fairy story.
Quote:It's like dealing with people in a religion because they are uncompromising and refuse to listen, and throw back insults. You can't say, for instance, to an Evangelical that you accept the premise of Christian morality, ie., do unto others. That's not good enough. You have to accept everything. It's the same here. You have to accept everything. It's not good enough to say that you have seen that the climate has warmed for decades or that you agree we should use less fossil fuels, convert to renewables etc etc. That's not good enough and if you have any doubts or questions, hey, you're an idiot, moron etc etc.
Seriously matey, I think you're losing the plot here. And again, I'm not sure why you keep drawing the absurd
analogy between religion and science—when there is none. Although, having said that, you do display all the
nonsensical attributes of the typical "denier" (despite claiming not to be).
I'm a creationist; I believe that man created God.
