The most notorious deniers, who defied "settled and undeniable science" were Copernicus and Galileo.
What a couple of utter fools!
You dumb fuck. Copernicus and Galileo defied the church. Essentially, at that time, they were the 'Science'.
You willfully ignorant denialists blissfully ignore the fact that every single Scientific Society, every National Academy of Science, and every major University have policy statemenst that AGW is real, and a clear and present danger.
First of all, let me thank you for the complimentary names you called me. Whenever I see the first sentence in a response to my - or for that matter to anybody's post - like your first sentence, it is absolutely clear that we are dealing with a loser.
Obviously you fail to see that history shows that there is no such thing as "settled science". You fail to see, but then strangely confirm what I said, that back then, the Church was the "settled science".
Today every major university and every scientist puts forth a theory, because they know the basic law: Publish or perish. So, once a theory that had been put forth, it eventually becomes boring and obsolete, and then the exact opposite needs to be promulgated.
That is how we know that eggs, milk, sugar and butter, for example, are bad for you this year, were good for you last year and will be good for you again next year.
That is how the impending an inevitable new Ice Age, the world wide hunger, the starvation of the 1970's - remember, the idea promoted by the then settled and most knowledgeable people - became Global Warming, plenty of food and great prosperity for those who are willing to work for it.
You and your ilk are sick to see people prosper, using the resources provided by the Earth. You have the condescending attitude that you know best. You have the richest vocabulary of insults to heap on everybody who dares to disagree with you.
Go, have at it!
