This thread is clear and decisive evidence that humans are irrational talking monkeys.

Gods, ghosts, demons, prophecy…

Belief in these things is mental illness.

You forgot to add the climate change doomsday believers who put their faith in computer models.

Laugh all you want, the decay is real, and there is no return from it.

The Edomites were forcibly assimilated by the Hasmoneans. They're no longer distinguishable from Jews.

I’m embarrassed as a human being that a thread like this exists in 2023.

call me when a red heifer is born

You make some very good points!!

the man actually went to Hagar because both he and Sarai thought that Sarai could not have children which to my thinking indicates a lack of faith.

She laughed when the angels told her she would have a baby boy.

That's how Yitzhak (Isaac) got his name. It comes from the Hebrew for laugh.

I disagree.

How accurate have computer global warming models been so far? Is there consistency between models?
This blog has a series of posts analyzing the various models and their predictions.


A study in the journal Science Advances

Have computer models consistently overestimated the rate and magnitude of global warming?
The best answer and commentary to this question is in the latest book by Steven Koonin, a professor at NYU and an authority in climate computer modeling. In his book Unsettled, he argues that out of forty climate computer models, which use super computers, 3D data and run several weeks to produce one model, none is able to produce current climate picture when fed decade old actual data. Some were able to come close but only after artificial tweaks. Yet our knowledge system continuous to rely on those models, favoring the ones with most catastrophic projections. Needless to say, the catastrophizers are the darlings of government central planners who tell us that by rearranging our lives we can control the trajectory of the Earth climate changes, most of all, that we can avert the looming apocalypse.

But the most significant failure of the IPCC computer modeling exercise is that it tries, in vain, to tie rise climate warming to increases of greenhouse gases concentration, particularly CO2, with an implied corollary that such changes, i.e., warming up of the Earth climate, is bad, actually outright disastrous, for humans and even the life on Earth, contrary to the climate short and long term history.

Yet there is no evidence that hurricanes are becoming more severe or frequent, that the sea level rises are accelerating, and that the climate is becoming less friendly to humans. Since the birth of the global warming movement we continue to have hot summers and cold winters, the Maldivas and Florida coast didn’t sink, and you still cannot use Northwest Passage to sail ice free around Canada, i.e., all things we were told in late 1980’s would happen in early 2000’s. Our knowledge system keeps harping on some magical tipping point that remains on perpetual ten-year horizon “unless we do something about it.
