Ah, now I see why I had no idea what the fuck you were talking about. You switched to an entirely different subject.

I'll indulge you, though:

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/n...warming_2.html
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/n...-sunspots.html

Obviously, things aren't quite as clear-cut as you seem to think they are.


But, once again, and for fuck's sake, TRY AND GET THE DAMN POINT THIS TIME (those caps indicate severe annoyance), you aren't an expert on this issue. Neither am I. The earth isn't a house, and we don't have a thermostat. The climate is an exceedingly complicated subject, and only an utter and complete idiot would believe that he could make sense of it without an extensive education and lots of research on the subject.

The real question here is a simple one: do you want to be that idiot? Do you want to be like the idiot who, without any relevant background, reads a handful of popular-scientific articles and immediately believes he can debunk quantum mechanics?

Seriously, you are not Einstein. Everyone else knows that, and you should start realizing it too. Leave it to the damn experts, and don't pick sides based on the combination of your political views and a few simplistic articles you happened to stumble upon.
