ABE: saturn, I know you spend time discussing evolutionary theory with creationists. Although you might not see it clearly at this point, this area is
very much the same. Indeed, both are based on science around about 150 years old, which has only grown stronger over the years. Mainly the
ideologically motivated who have issues with them.
I think the thing about that is, those whom typically are full on creationists that refuse to listen to common sense, also are the ones screaming
loudest on how global warming/climate destablization is a hoax.
That right there in itself brings up major red flags to me on how they view facts and science...by showing a complete misunderstanding and denial of
actual science, then in another area saying the science is flawed and incorrect...well, lets just say that is perhaps the hardest thing to get past
overall.
then of course I come across stupid graphs like that which make me wonder just what is going on overall. I am open to the idea..I hope the deniers
are correct and we are just being over-reactionary babies about nothing much...would rather be wrong in a healthy world than saying I told you so as a
ice age rips civilization a new one.
Actually, after 15 years of dealing with this argument...I am a bit tired of it overall. again, I am not having kids, so the actual effects is simply
academic for me. Would be nice if my nephews and nieces had a good future ahead of them of course, but otherwise...meh.
Now, get those genetic age reversal treatments going and ya, suddenly I am all kinds of caring what the world will look like in 50-100 years...
