Well to be skeptical is not being a denier, so you figure it out.

Youve lost the plot there progs.

If I say "the earth is round", and someone says "No, its not, its flat, look". That someone is, logically, a "denier".

But to say that because I believe the earth is round makes me religous or church going is absurd. My view will not make one difference to my church goings (if any).

If you have never seen the empirical evidence that the earth is round, then yes, your insistence that you are correct and everyone else is merely a denier for having an opposing view, is being the church of the old days. Churchie.

Ahh, so you are just using as a name calling technique. Part of your demonising your opponents strategy.

Fine, no point continuing this discussion.

But FWIW, it was the churchies we held on to the view the earth was flat, and its the churchies who make up a majority of the climate change deniers, so you are shooting your own camp with that one.
Grin

No, I am using it as a verb for the opposite of denier.

And EXACTLY churchie to the first part of your your second point.

Other than that, your second point is pure BS and I belong to no camp. I live in my condo, not a camp.

I have not made any personal insults, and I am certainly not left wing. Neither is Imperium as far as I am aware.

well you do a left wing impression pretty good and your subtle video sure wasn't derogatory was it.

Me thinks you are skating around on a bit of BS.

But as long as neither of you have anything of substance to add to this thread and couldn't win a chook raffle if you had all the tickets, then we can wait patiently until you find some substance. The thread will wait for you.

Christopher Monckton deserves to be taken to task. He has shown to have lied and he is probably the most thoroughly debunked of all denialists. His credibility is zero and he doesn't present any coherent arguments.

I won't use the term sceptic. I am a sceptic. He is not.

As for Left wing, we are talking about one issue - that of the reality of anthropogenic climate change. We are not talking about wealth distribution, social welfare or anything like that. It's entirely a question of basic atmospheric science, which happens to be a subject I'm well versed in.

There are plenty of people on the right side of politics who agree that we are facing a major issue as a result of increasing the carbon dioxide inventory of the atmosphere and the surface ocean. I mentioned Roger Scruton in another thread. Margaret Thatcher is probably the epitome of conservativism, but probably as a result of her understanding of the science, she also agrees that it's a serious issue.

Think all the Global Warmers or is it Climate Changers, they change their name every time there is a switch in the weather.

Haven't heard about Global Warming for a while sports fans. Couldn't be because of the freezing temperatures in Europe or record rainfalls and coldest winter in 50 years on the Eastern seaboard could it.

The only person whop has come out smelling like a rose is Lord Monckton.

Now the Global Warmers are in the lifeboats and clinging on to the S.S. Climate Change.

Geez you are a scurvy pathetic lot.
