Ok....lets play devils advocate for a minute (Score 1)

Ok, so lets just pretend for a moment that the 'conservatives' are right: the earth has changes, weather is too unpredictable, chaos theory, etc. etc. Lets assume that NO one really knows or could EVER know how such a complex and seemingly chaotic system works. Isn't that all the MORE reason not to f#ck with it? Or I suppose thats the first thing everyone does when confronted with an enormously complex and possibly fragile system on which their very life depends. "Oh, check out all the buttons on that pilots control deck! lets play with them even though I know nothing about flying an airplane!". This is the best the 'conservatives' can do to argue against global warming? attack the credibility and offer no real alternate explanation? Sounds similar to the technique used by these troglodytes when bashing the evolutionary theory: come out and attack the science without offering any real alternate scientific explanation, like the guy who sits in the bleachers telling the players how they should play. This is not how science works. to replace Newton Einsteins theory had to explain everything Newtons did, and do it more precisely. But, of course this little detail we all seem to forget in the heat of the argument. Once again, you /.'s out there seem to forget that these people you are dealing with have NO respect for science, or any rules for that matter,at least not when it conflicts with their core political beleifs. To them, their political agenda comes before everything else. Please learn this, and learn it fast. People like that are not only disgusting, they are dangerous-especially when coming from the right (usually those who are from the left and exercise the same philosophy tend to be more of a thing or annoyance or light comedy). The one fact that NO one (and I mean NO ONE!) can dispute is that the level of C02 in the atmosphere has increased drastically since the industrial revolution.
