Darwin’s bullgod, my personal observations over the last 40 years tell me that climate change is occurring. Dig a little deeper into the evidence and stop listening to the denialists.

Pandering to the masses is an economic strategy.

Evolution is science fact. ‘Climate Science’ is science fiction.

I majored in Biology. I am familiar with the theory of evolution. I understand that it is fundamentally correct, deeply supported by all of science, explanatory and predictive. Nevertheless, it is very messy business in the details. Though simple to state, it gets complex quickly and it is notoriously difficult for some people to grasp. For the most part, it is non-expert believers that support both Evolution and Creationism. Evolution is fascinating and important and enormously well supported. Despite this being a completely finished debate in scientific circles, it is most definitely not a finished debate with the public, because it constantly comes up. When will this end? Likely never, since there will always be people who have yet to understand evolution.

Biologists have tons of evidence for evolution and evolution is discussed and evidence presented in many places. It is not a valid argument to insult people who do not understand the arguments and/or disbelieve the evidence. Typically even the most strident evolutionists merely refer once again to evidence and understanding. I am sure there are those in the Biology community who get frustrated with the zombie-like resurrection of creationism or intelligent design or whatever they call it this time out. Still, it is evidence and reason that supports evolution, not heavy-handed argument from authority, straw men and ad-hominem attacks. Darwin did not set out to silence his critics.

Since most in the evolution/creation(ID or whatever) debate do not understand the arguments either side, neither set of uninformed believers has a very strong claim to the high road.

This is not to say that evolution and creationism are on an equal footing. They are not. Creationism or ‘Intelligent Design’ or whatever new cloak this idea is wearing, is a completely failed theory. Evolution is the binding paradigm of an entire branch of science. Despite the disparity in the merit of the ideas, we can and should respect the individuals presenting them. In public debate amongst laymen, the ideas do not have equality, but the people presenting them should.

It is ironic that people who believe in the magical and fanciful notion of catastrophic climate change raise the Evolution/Creation social controversy to bolster their arguments. In that analogy, they are the creationists. It is doubly ironic that they highlight their fragile credentials and bring a real scientific discipline into focus, because they chose the one discipline that, if they understood it, provides conclusive evidence that climate alarm is nonsense. They predict dire consequences for species that come from epochal time due to minor fluctuations in centenary time when the adaptations are encoded in genetic material that comes from geologic time.

I understand Evolution and realize how Creationism/Intelligent design is a failed notion. However, I have never called for silencing those who wish to discuss this. I recall, back in the 1980s when this was a fairly unpleasant thorn in the side of Biology professors, we held a series of seminars to allow both sides to present their case and to challenge the other side.

Both ‘creation science’ and ‘climate science’ have science in their name, but that does not make them science. Both present arguments from scientific and mathematical illiteracy.

‘Creation Science’ and ‘Climate Science’ are philosophical fellow travelers. Both come from a mindless religious devotion. Both would dearly love to replace scientific research with a-priori assumptions. It would seem that both feel, with no other evidence than a devout conviction, that they should be the ‘null hypothesis’.

‘Climate Science’ simply cannot compete in the open marketplace of ideas and evidence. That is why they are forever attempting to stop the presentation of evidence. Don’t let them get away with it.

You have an opinion. I have an opinion.
You are obviously a much better person than I because your opinion is better than mine?
Hee hee.

“Don’t just sit there. Take action!”
Ok, I did just that. Emailed them and asked them to ignore anything from a group that calls themselves FREE thought that wants to censor FREE thought.
Hee hee. 🙂

Hilarious. Just plain hilarious.
