re: What are your reasons for believing climate change is "a hoax"

Which to powerman means “they are conservatives”.
What he doesn’t realize is many like myself once “believed” in it. It sounds reasonable. The you start digging in and.... there are serious technical problems with theory and the work of those
what's funny is, Pman not only dismisses anyone on the board as "not a scientist" but also dismisses ALL actual scientists who don't toe the line.
But what do we expect from a guy who has now repeatedly used the 97% number that even the climate people admit is debunked and was based on flawed methodology.
Basically, Pman's sum total of knowledge isn't even "I know cause smart people told me".
It's, "I know because CNN told me what smart people said".

I should add that it's funny because Pman acts like at least learning enough to understand the scientific pitch doesn't require one to be a climate scientist.
He could at least go to THAT much effort.
But, I guess that squeezes in to his Grand Theft Auto time. So. Just count.

This thread is classic Dunning-Krueger. He’s al(apparently) incapable of understanding his own error. So he presumed he’s right and digs in further.

What's funny is that you cut and pasted those without knowing the conversation.
So. What you think is a gotcha actually illustrated my point.
About what I expected from ya.
Thanks.

Then....he literally argues that attempting to evaluate and form your own opinions is an example of stupidity.

Now, I realize he's just a fairly pedestrian intellect who thinks agreeing with smart people makes him smart.

hell. He probably thinks he's figured out why the logical fallacy ISN'T one.

It's funny cause, if I'm being honest, I occasionally use that particular rhetorical approach too. But that's just because an amazing number of people are stupid enough to fall for it.
But when they don't, you're supposed to have the intellectual wherewithal to bow out of it.

If 97% of climate scientists think that man made climate change is real is that standard of proof too low for you?
100% of Christians believe that Jesus was the divine son of a deity, and that eternal damnation awaits those whose sins are grievous enough. Is this across the board consensus on the subject sufficient to convince you that these suppositions are true?

existence of warming does not establish causality.
Not warming due to anthropogenic effects - sorry for not spelling it out for you, I assumed you were at least versed in the basics here.
If you could show that, for example, radiative forcing of CO2 and other greenhouse gases emitted by humans was not a driver of climate, then problem solved. No global warming.
That's why the opposite is shown, and you believe in a conspiracy theory.

There is no such thing as an AGW "conversation" on the Poli board - which is exemplified by your appeal to ignorance of science as you attempt to make a 'point'.

Swing and another miss. I can't help you comprehend English. I can only point you in the right direction.

BamaAtl is full of shite..........but at least Bama ain't making the "duh......um, look......I can count" argument.
