...Al Gore has famously claimed about global warming, "the debate in the scientific community is over." Al Gore may be many things to many people -- but he is not a scientist.

When a layman declares a scientific debate to be over, one of three things is possible: (1) the person is a prophet; (2) the person is ignorant and should be ignored by rational human beings; or (3) the person is insane and needs medical treatment.

It follows that someone who believes the layman's assertion is (1) a religious follower of the prophet, (2) someone whose need for a "moral" issue exceeds his or her capacity to reason, or (3) someone at least as delusional as the person making the claim.

There is no hard and fast evidence for the dogma of man made global warming. In fact, our planet appears to be cooling. It is time for the environmentalists to rethink their theology. Perhaps they already have. Barack Obama is now calling it "climate change."
