Before I say anything else, I'm not gonna force my beliefs on you if you don't want to hear it. Thats where just about everyone goes wrong. I don't plan an contributing to that.
You believe what you want to believe, I believe what I want to believe. State your opinion, and nothing more. Choose to believe it or don't. Then smile and walk away.
Truth is, He doesn't intervene directly, the way He operates is by picking you up when you ask for it. He mostly affects you directly by taking the place of what I might describe as "fate" or the way things were going to happen.
IE: Your in an emotionally bad place, you ask Him to help you. If its in His will, He'll either A: Will put something or someone in your life to make you feel better. Or B:He'll make you feel better without the help of any outside influences.

Which would be cool if I didn't pick up such a hostile vibe from this thread.

ANYWHO.
I believe in global warming, man.
And we should research it more, because I don't wanna leave a screwed up world to my future children and their grandchildren.

I want my child not to know true hunger, I want him not to have to wear a mask to get to school, I want to die before the world I know ends forever.

Thats your own hostility then. I'm not being hostile at all, just stating some believes.
I won't discuss it anymore however. If it makes you that uncomfortable.
-Back to politics-

I think its about time they renamed global warming.
It was coined global warming when we didn't know enough about it.
Also, I don't really mind global warming. We as human beings are adaptive species. We'll figure it out when it happens.
And it most likely won't happen in my life time. My legacy can figure it out themselves :D

Global climate change.
True its been getting a lot warmer, but its not from a hole we created in our atmosphere. This is proof if anything, that these are natural hundred year cycles that happen consistently in the past and now. Just stop and think about this for a second, many years from now your kids will probably be complaining about humans causing an ice age.

What are you basing any of this on? You just keep making authoritarian statements without any evidence whatsoever like you were chastising children. You ARE a source of hostility here, sleepy.

I thought you were talking only about me talking about God.
I am very vocal about my politics, my religion not so much. Because I'm smart enough to know doing that with religion won't work.
@Selithia
If you read the rest of the thread you'd know we have evidence of this. The subject of this thread is evidence in and of itself. And since everyone seems to think I'm hostile right now. Let me state that I'm not. If you take something the wrong way then I apologize. But thats your fault not mine.

Well sure, that absolves you of having to take any responsibility for how you phrase things, totally.

Sarcasm? And I'm hostile?
I'll apologize for it and tell you it wasn't meant that way. What more do you want me to do? :/

Selithia wrote on 2011-01-27 19:35
Your apologies have so far been mostly focussed on placing blame on the parties offended. Sort of like how if someone sees hostility, that's their fault, not yours, or how if you come off as condescending, then that's the fault of the listener. It's disingenuous and paints the rest of your argument in a rather poor light, which is already fairly weak considering the whole idea centers around the entirety of the scientific community being wrong in an era where things are extensively tested and constantly investigated as opposed to the old leeching days.

Move the discussion along ._. ignore past words and get to the point please.
The term global warming is bull and it should be called Polar warming. I'm not sure what affect the melted ice has had but it shouldn't be that bad. This new ice just means banning a certain chemical and the use of filters helps some.
