I didn't call the collective conclusions nonsense. I called your dismissal of the counter arguments nonsense. |
Any counter arguments that I may have dismissed is on the basis of the conclusions of the IPCCs and all the reputable scientific organisations.

Quote by: xyzer Who said they did? It issued conclusions based on studies it chose. Who said the majority of scientists participated? You did..and in fact the majority didn't? |
Are you claiming the IPCC missed out many studies that would support your position? So what do you think the statements issued by the NASs represent? A minority view?

Quote by: xyzer As I predicted you twist and dismiss rather than accept other opinions and conclusions? |
Why should I accept stuff that is misleading or false?

Quote by: xyzer An example.. How do these figure in? What do you mean by this? The author wasn't talking about a specific year, he was talking about the years since 1998? |
Erm, it's directly related and addresses what he sees as a problem, that we've seen no warming since 1998. Obviously, this needs to be put into perspective otherwise it is a misleading remark. Do I have to draw out a diagram for you?

Quote by: xyzer Frankly I'm begining to realize the depths of your beliefs preclude you from acepting other beliefs or even considering them? That's not the essence of scientific reason, is it? You've posted that you adhere to the scientific method and yet you don't accept other scientists conclusions if they differ from those that are already in your mind? You've repeatedly rejected logical conclusions from data if they differ from those in your rigid mindset. You repeatedly impugn the backgrounds and veracity of prominent climate scientists if their outlook differs from yours? |
Excuse me? The sources I post are not merely opinions and anecdotes from the odd Academic here and there.
I think it is you who have rejected the logical conclusions and instead, jump onto the bandwagon of anything that might support your ideas.
