>> If you can't accept global warming simply by the fact that it is taught as real by almost all scientists and universities.

Yes, and almost all scientists and universities in 1700 believe light traveled through the Ether. It was, as you guys are fond of saying, "settled science." But it was far more "settled" that AGW is today. There are very important, thoughtful scientists -- and a lot of them -- who think AGW is either bullshit or over-blown. And a lot more who are afraid to say it. And a lot of closed minded idiots who don't deserve a place in academia.

The closed-mindedness is astounding to me. I do not know if I have seen it like you have it. But it is clearly prevalent amongst liberals. Which, of course, is over-represented in academia.
