We need a population and a workforce that is educated and has a respect for the scientific methods that have given us inventions like the Airplane, the internet, penicillin, polio vaccine, and other important human milestones that require a view of the world that is flexible and changing.

The reason why people who believe in the scientific method, and who do not believe in Biblical literalism, is because science changes over time.

Conservatives do not like change! They do not like the idea that 10 years from now, science has a different theory on time, or gravity, or on how diseases spread. They can't adapt to the changes that science requires. Science is changing constantly- that is why it is great!

When new evidence and data comes in that contradicts old evidence and data, they are compared, and the better more accurate data/evidence replaces the old and out of date data.

For instance, Astronomers once had the theory that pluto was the farthest planet in our solar system. Then they got better instruments, and found out that Pluto had a sister planet or that it was a double planet, then they got even better instruments and found that there were other Pluto sized planets beyond Pluto.

What changed? New and improved data and evidence came in, and they changed their theories. That doesn't mean that we can't trust or rely on theories, because they can change, the reason why scientific theory is better, is because it is constantly improving.

Maybe you were not aware of this Gorbash, but the pictures of the stranded polar bears being used as evidence FOR global warming has been debunked.

To help your cause, I can send you pictures from Florida when I was there in April this year. You can see that it was warm in Florida when here in Ohio, it was cold.

I have some pictures at the beach, where it was 85 degrees and Ohio had snow. Those pictures might convince the doubters. Let me know if it will help.

Oh, I just remembered, I had a picture of my neighbor's daughter from last August. She lost her ice cream off her cone and was crying. The picture includes the ice cream on the sidewalk, melting away from the heat.

That could help your cause.

gorbash, the cut & paste champion of propaganda! LOL

where do you get all this stuff?

Dprin - "gorbash, the cut & paste champion of propaganda! LOL"

It beats having to think, and put your thoughts into words that can convince others.

Just paste a bunch of jpgs, and type a statement, "This is true. Believe it or you are stupid" and you move on to the next thing.

Sort of a pictorial ""Arguing like a liberal" if you will...

Just imagine the FEAR that is in Gorbash’s heart Dprin. If it was true that in 50 years we could be under water, I would not be around to notice, but Gorbash would be in his golden years, hoping his FEMA issued flotation device passed inspection.

But it is his style. More power to him I guess.

[CUT!]

bybrid, LOL imagine how embarassed & ashamed he will be when the world doesn't end..........LMAO

no matter what those crazy liberals say or do, we cannot control the weather, climate, ozone layer, cows & sheep farting............or whatever their crayons & markers make up.........LOL

The same Conservatives who don't believe in Global Warming, are the same ones who don't believe in Evolution, Stem Cell Research, or the Big Bang Theory.

They don't understand what a Scientific Theory is!

It is an explanation of natural phenonenom using the scientific method and physical data.

Scientific Theories include the Theory of Gravity, Theory of Plate Tectonics, Theory of Transfer of Energy.

Do Conservatives display the same bizarre and unscientific skepticism of the Theory of Gravity? NO!

They only choose to disbelief science when it doesn't fit their wrongheaded political agenda!

They want to undermine seperation of church and state, and want to proselytize and preach to public school students with tax payer money, so they came up with "intelligent design"

They don't want regulations on greenhouse gases and they don't want to have to conserve energy, they don't want to change energy policy to more responsbile clean renewable energy like solar and wind energy. In short they don't want to do what it takes to stop warming greenhouse gases because it will cost them money. They choose not to believe the science, becuase they are selfish.

Scientists, in lab coats and in universities, who have spent their entire lives studying climate using the scientific method and collecting physical data, came up with the theory, not Al Gore.

But Conservatives don't believe in science, so I wouldn't expect you to care or even be able to contemplate what I am talking about.

Strange how so many people will bet their lives on religious faith, yet question modern day science? I never could figure that out? My question has nothing to with doubt of any religion not being genuine, just the fact that most religions are old and based on faith. Yet modern day science is always questionable, go figure?

We have no Idea how or why “Aspirin” works? only theories, yet we sell and swallow the pills by the millions every day. Think about how many cancers there are? we have no idea how or why many cancers are caused, yet we treat many cancers today with techniques we have no idea how or why they destroy cancer cells other then theories, Yet millions of Americans are treated and cured every year. We have theories that the universe is endless, yet no one ever argues with this theory? I certainly never met anyone who actually has gone to the end of the universe to prove it? My question was Religion, Certainly there has not been proof in my life time as to which religion is indeed the real religion or God? It is all theory, Hence the need for faith correct? People are willing to give their live to a God they never met or have proof exists. But when you look at photos of ice melting or gone all together on mountains that always had ice before, people are skeptical? When your grandparents told you stories of fresh water creeks so clean they could drink out of and fish out of, And that same creek today now has hazardous to your health signs posted all around it, people are skeptical? Theories are indeed the reason and way things are discovered and the way cures for diseases are found. Look at penicillin? The man had a theory and injected mold into his and his sons veins, this theory never tested before today saved millions if not billions of lives. The fact is, everything in life began once as a theory, nothing more than idea based on as little as perhaps a day dream or passing though
