Oh dear lord, is that what this is all about? You don't like the global warming theorists? One of the nice things about science is that opponents are free to publish contradictory and challenging papers. Such has been done. Such is being done. If you're angry at Al Gore, there are shorter ways around the barn than an intellectually dishonest thread about how science and religion are the same animal.

Again with the global warming. Let me get this straight, you want to see global warming "reproduced"? Using something other than technical people (sometimes called "scientists") and computers? Would an army of alchemists using abaci and astrolabes be more to your liking? Some of your rhetorical flourishes are weird, Gawain.

And are you saying that the Pentateuch was written according to some sort of unrecognized scientific precept? THat's going to irritate both fundamentalists and humanists to no end.
