Hey I LOVE those questions! Sorry I didn't check this I didn't think anyone would say anything back:
do you believe in anthropogenic global warming ?
yes I do believe that humans are causing global warming, only because I have been studying it in my oceanography class for the past semester. The CO2
levels in the atmosphere DO fluctuate, and it's not like this hasn't happened before in Earth's history- but the problem is the rate that it's
happening- and it's due to all the pollution we're spewing into the atmosphere. We're not the SOLE cause, but we did do a hell of a a lot
damage.
Do you feel that Israel is a victim of arab aggression and misrepresented, or in fact it is an aggressive expansionist state which relies on US
patronage and propaganda ?
Being a jew, I should be sympathetic to Israel, but I really see it as America Jr. They're just as destructive as we are and I'm so ashamed of what
Jews are doing to the arab world (not that I don't think the arabs are right either, both sides are just acting ridiculous). I don't get what the
objectives are on either side- they just can't keep blowing each other up. I wish that normal people could reason with the leaders.
What are your thoughts on creationism ?
I believe there must be some controlling force out there guiding which direction everything flows in, but I don't think there's a
"Christian/Jewish/Muslim God" that touched the earth with the tip of his finger and out came humans and everything else. There's too much
complexity in the world to NOT have evolution- unless you can tell me God created bacteria and protists and all those microscopic organisms that are
the very base of the food chain?
Also- I don't know HOW to get points! I want to be able to talk to people about things too- all my friends choose to live in ignorance just because
the things I like to talk about scare them somehow.
