I'm amused, but I must confess not suprised, at your naivete' Rick!?


Could it be that the majority of the scientists were right, when they once believed, and expounded, that the earth was flat? Could it be that the majority of scientists were right when the believed, for so many years, that the sun revolved around the earth? Scientific endeavor and expression is fallible, is it not? Get real...

I can only suggest that you read the references on the site I referenced? Statistical anomalies, along with revealed discrepancies, abound if one analyzes several of the assertions that has been offered as definitive science about climate change?

Bottom line! Should we rush to change something that is not conclusively true? Should we waste resources on what might be rather than what we know and are capable of solving?
The flat earth myth... ahh nice one.
Greek astronomers had long observed that the earth was not flat even centuries before Christ.

It was Copernicus who said the solar system was heliocentric. It was a commonly held belief from Aristotle to Copernicus that the Earth was the center of the universe.


Delusion- A persistent false belief held in the face of strong contradictory evidence. (i.e. religion)
