However, another poster here chided me for seeing any link at all between how people view evolution/creation vs the AGW debate. He bashes AGW, but accepts evolution and thinks anyone who denies it is a goober(SP??). Give up the creationist/climate hysteria skeptic thing, libby. I'll try to make it simple so even you can possibly understand. Creation "science" is a fairy tale dealing with the past. Here are a couple of examples for your elucidation.. sixdaycreation.com When Noah and the animals stepped off the ark, the earth was dramatically changed. The new environment was hard for the animals to adapt to, and as a result, many animals died, among them, the dinosaurs. Genesis is the only reliable witness humans have to find answers concerning the dinosaurs. Through looking at evidence from Genesis, as well as other scientific research, it becomes apparent that dinosaurs were present on the ark and the results of the Flood eventually destroyed them... ...If dinosaurs died before humans were created, sin would have entered the world. Also, dinosaurs and man were created on the same day. God plainly says after every day that everything was (very good. Death is therefore sin, so the dinosaurs could not have died before the existence of humans (Liebert Interview). This explanation supports the fact that dinosaurs were among those animals taken on board the ark... ...No longer do scientists have to research this controversial issue; it is already written down in the book of Genesis with the story of the Flood. (LOL!! AlGore would be proud. "The world is burning up. It's settled. No further research is necessary. It's written, it's proven by MY MOVIE") answersingenesis.org In Genesis 6:19–20, the Bible says that two of every sort of land vertebrate (seven of the “clean” animals) were brought by God to the Ark. Therefore, dinosaurs (land vertebrates) were represented on the Ark... ...not all dinosaurs were huge like the Brachiosaurus, and even those dinosaurs on the Ark were probably “teenagers” or young adults... So, is that enough "goober" for you? And you still insist on equating this sort of "Fred Flintstone and Dino" goofyness with rational skeptics who question the religious dogma of you red/green "holy heaters" that the earth will fry and the "second great flood will drown the cities" and the end of the world will happen in 97.3 years unless humans immediately stop putting more CO2 into the atmosphere (i.e. cancel civilization)? All praise the UN and pass the sprouts. OMMMMM... Maybe AlGore should do another movie with "teenage dinosaurs" drowning along side of the polar bears. Give up the "creation" thing, libby, and get yourself a credible straw man, as it's obvious to any reasonable, thinking person that "creation" church and your AGW "end of the world" church are two peas in a pod...

There is no evidence to prove darwinism(evolution) created life or man and man produced CO2 is or will be driving global warming. There is only supposition. And within all darwinism(evolution) supposition there is still the supposition that God created it that way. Creationism is a supposition that logically is a superset of all suppositions. Only the abjectly stupid of their own ignorance have some religion like beliefs that have them thinking otherwise.
