What the hell is your problem?

-snip-

(I actually put some more in my original post there while you were quoting me, you can read it now)

Some other juicy stuff: According to science that makes sense, the reason it's been warming (which it actually hasn't in the last decade) is the Little Ice Age set some centuries ago. We're currently exiting it, so why shouldn't it get colder.

Fred Krupp was in a debate with the producer of "Not Evil, Just Wrong" and he made no good answers to the points he made, he just sneaked past the questions. And he talked about the "global warming fixes" as a way to help economy. That's what it's about. Money. With things like the Copenhagen Treaty, we will be put under a corrupt system ruled by a climate panel and third world countries with the power to exploit our countries resources. Imagine, countries like Rwanda and Zimbabwe taking the money from India and China. I'm not saying we shouldn't help the third world countries, but this isn't the way to do it.

Luckily, I don't think either China or India will sign the thing. They have a blooming economy thanks to their industry, and this treaty will rob them of their industry and their income. Why would they sign that... thing?

Here's a video with Glenn Beck and the weather guy, John Coleman, discussing this issue. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ft8LfE7AI2w&feature=related (I think I may actually buy his book)

And the results that Glenn Beck mentioned of bringing up this is true, I've been mocked for stating this.

Oh, I almost forgot one thing I heard during a speech on global warming by Cristopher Monckton: In a country in South America (or was it Africa, I don't remember the country and continent exactly) 1/3 of fields used by farmers for producing food had been exploited for creating bio-fuels. Imagine, thousands, maybe millions of people starving to death just so some nervous Al Gore follower doesn't have to worry about driving his expensive new car too much.

But if you're really interested, I recommend this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zOXmJ4jd-8] video. It's long, it takes a lot of thinking, but you will learn a lot. Watch it later.

A. Biofuels are more inefficient than fossil fuels as they cannot be transported by pipelines (they have to be carted around in semi's) and cost more to produce. Also it is driving up food prices as farmers are switching to corn for ethanol instead of producing food crops.

B. I agree with all of you points but I don't feel like formulating a coherent reply.

C. Yes, I watch Glenn Beck as well and saw that episode. I agree with him on somethings and I do believe the "global warming" business is about money. However, I am a conservative but I dop take things he says with a grain of salt and I research it later.

I am going to friend you now....

A. Indeed, it's painful to watch.

B. It's okay, it's getting a bit tedious to write this much.

C. That's cool, you can't agree on all points. I'm more of a right-wing liberal. But we're all different.

Hooray for friending.

Ok. I do agree with liberals on a few points but I disagree only about fiscal policy and a few others....maybe we should start a Global Warming thread...

I paid my way through university by doing gay-bondage-pornography. £50 an hour!

How did that work out for you?

Please tell me you were joking.
[small/]please?[/small]

It worked out well, and was a great confidence booster! I also partly did it to spite people at uni, too.

HAHAHA! How did they respond...or did you tell them?

Maybe we should. I can maybe write it down if I have time.

Sure just send me a message if you create one and we can unleash our arguments...I can't start it as I have to leave soon though...I also need time to prepare my arguments.

I think theres alot of attention whoring going on ...

Most people say "what the hell" when I solve my rubix cube, turn my tongue upside down crack my neck and along the same line snap my arm (it's like cracking but it sounds more like a snap, funny when coupled with with acting like a I broke my arm).

I am other things people have mentioned on here but there rather blasé, I feel such as misanthropy and masochism.

It was mostly for the "Feminism" module of my politics course. When the topic of whether pornography was exploitative or not, I was able to authoratatively answer "Hell no", and when condescendingly asked "Have you ever done it?" I could answer in the affirmative!

I am doing it right now, I'm copying my previous posts so I don't have to rewrite. I can quote you if you want to.

Thank you, I have to get off now but if you will send me the forum link I will post on it when I get back on in a few hours...

The fact I now say 'Up your Viva!!' a lot in public.

If you're British, you'll know what I mean, if you have digital TV anyeway.

Up your Viva!!!! That guy with his unbelievably wide mouth made me go on to that channel. Then I realised it was just a music channel.

I'm not special in any way.
Oh dear.

I enjoy extremely cold temperatures, have a high threshold for pain and I enjoy the pain, I am an introvert so when I say certain things around people they get "that look" on their face and I am a very tolerant person.
I also like bunnies

Nice...I don't mind the cold but I don't "love" it or "bunnies" that much...unless you count semi-automatic "bunnies"....reference to get a cookie..

I laugh when there's a sad scene, or a gory scene. I laughed at the ending of Marley and Me, and laughed my way through the Saw movies.

Both of which I've gotten multiple frightened/incredulous/angry stares from people.

Though i am very smart for my age i can't stand acting like a little kid and i think that will be a problem that will stick with me for the rest of my life

Unlucky, the moment you say your clever for your age is the moment your childishness shines through.

Out of interest, would you say that anybody who describes themselves as intelligent/clever for their age is being arrogant as opposed to honest?

A lot of the time I question everything. I mean everything. It annoys the hell out of people, and I can see why.

Yes, I can't think of a single case of someone saying that not coming off as arrogant, even if its true.

I've got the questioning everything habit too, ever since I took Philosophy. It reaally does annoy people

Yeah, my sister and I laugh whenever we see a Jurassic Park movie...it is like oop there goes another one and...I bet that one will get mulched next..

My family is weird.

When someone speaks ill of another person in that person's absence, I get just as upset as if they'd been talking about me.

 

[Viking Incognito]

I am completely un-phased by violence. I can look at something that would classify as horribly gruesome and not even blink.

I laugh at the fake blood and gore on television, video games, and in movies...I find it funny that it doesn't even look real....

I'm a capitalist and global warming skeptic. It has earned me some harsh words and criticism.

I feel your pain. My entire group of friends are all socialists while I'm a capitalist. They're always ripping on me. I do believe in global warming, though.

It's not so that I don't believe in global warming, I just think that the actual "threat" part of it is a scam. There are proof of the government lying (Yes, I know I sound like some conspiracy theorist, but I believe what I've seen)

This, coupled withe the fact that if you listen to any of the leaders of the large green movements you will think you are on the set of a movie in which cultists seek to end all life on the planet as we know it. For example look as Pau Ehlerhert(something like that) in the 60's and 70's he predicted that there would be so many people on earth that we would face a severe global famine, I think he called his book "population bomb". Anyways he had a huge following and every decade after that he and his followers would come out and say that the population could not increse any more and that we should take drastic measures like sterilization and "rationing" of how many children a couple should have.

Turns out we have more that enough food production capabilities it is just that distribution is not the greatest...especially with most CFC's being banned....

His ideas largely shaped the green movement today and had a large influence in his time...

For more info on global warming I have the book "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming." However, just ignore his ad hominem attacks and comparison of environmentalists to communitst (first chapter), the rest is quite good.

Just tell me it's not anything like A Conveniently Co-opted Idea...erm, I mean An Inconvenient Book.

I think this is normal, common even. The problem is so many people are pussies that they just sort of laugh nervously when what they're really thinking is "when will this coward shut the fuck up or do something about it?"
