    The science and the facts just too difficult for you to argue with eh? Of course they are. Everyone falls apart when presented with the simple fact that CO2 causes mild warming.

    The thing I find with far right trolls is, they ignore questions and evidence, and when people get bored with them, they crow victory as if they proved something. The question I have is, if you get to vote and you're this deluded, how can democracy function?

        There's a quote that it's the worst system, except all the others. But morons believing internet shit about AGW not being real, Muslims being evil and refugees being terrorists are making it worse

          WHat questions and evidence have you put forward to suggest CO2 is dangerous that I have ignored? The 97%? I already answered that by quoting the Doran Zimerman poll on which that figure is based.

                    No it doesnt. Venus has an atmosphere 100 times as thick as the earth. Its surface temperature is to do with pressure, not CO2. Mars has an almost pure CO2 atmosphere too yet its surface is cold. It has very low atmospheric pressure.

                        Who said AGW isnt real? I just told you it is, many many times. Let me repeat, man made CO2 has a mild and beneficial warming effect. Got it? And I said Islam is fascism. Not evil. Keep your childish sky fairy terms to your self please, and dont attribute them to others.

                            Oh, and in case you are actually interested in a grown up discussion about Islam this is what I am talking about: International propagation of Salafism and Wahhabism - Wikipedia[^] Petro dollars are funding Wahhabi mosques and madrassas around the globe, resulting in the increasing extremism of Islam in many countries. You might be interested in the fact that the black face covering worn by women in Saudi Arabia is used increasingly globally. This gives you a clue that the influence of Wahhabi Islam is spreading. It is like a cancer in Islam. IT is quite possible for most muslims to live moderately and at peace with other religions, but with this cancer at their heart driving their global agenda (and we can include the Muslim Brotherhood here too) what chance does the passive majority have of seeing their wishes fulfilled? Never is the answer. Let me quote Churchill for you: "A fervent minority will displace a complacent majority" Muslims in the west might well want to live peacefully, but clearly they are incapable of policing Islam. Let me highlight that for you. Peaceful muslims are incapable of policing Islam. Do you understand what I mean by that? I said it to a muslim I used to work with once and he had no idea (indicating just how out of touch he was). Islam if it wants to be seen as a peaceful religion MUST control, exclude, and limit it's violent extremist sects. If not the entire religion will be tarred with the same brush and we will have to police Islam for them. And that means us deciding what aspects of it are and are not acceptable in the west. Of course hopefully the moderate muslims can succeed, and do this for themselves, but since they are often persecuted for the moderism by fellow muslims, listen to Tawhidi on thisReforming Islam (Imam Tawhidi Interview) - YouTube[^], and attacked just for wearing a santa hat: Boxer Amir Khan is accused of being 'unIslamic' over Christmas photo | Daily Mail Online[

                                    Hey Mike. I remember you being right wing enough to buy in to the Trump kool aide. How have you been? What's interesting to me about the right is that they either are stupid, or they are too dishonest to correctly state my views. I presume you're merely misinformed, so I'll clarify for you. AGW and it's harm on the earth is visible today. It's easy to see. But, either way, smart people believe experts over Alan Jones I believe there's been one incident of planes in buildings, over a decade ago. Either way, I've never met a person who suggests that Islamic terrorists are 'misunderstood angels', that's an example of the simple mindedness of the right. The Muslims must all be good, or all bad. The world can't have nuance. That's too confusing. Yes, refugees do have a right to live and a right to cross borders IF the country signed the refugee convention, they immediately present themselves to authorities and submit to processing, and prove their claims. This is in fact international law.

                                        By the amount.

                                        And is a bit further from the nearest star. Impressed by the amount of idiots that actually vote you up :D

                                        So you are now saying it is insolation that is behind surface temperature and not CO2?

                                          Venus has a surface temperature of about 450 C It has a very slow rotation, about 80 earth days long. During that time the surface temperature does not vary. NOw what does that tell you about the surface temperature being driven by the greenhouse effect which starts with the surface being heated by the sun?
