I wrote this Tweet the other day (dropped an “it” at the beginning. Sue me)
Isn’t ironic that Al Gore has a divinity degree and becomes the high priest of “climate change”

(WKZO) Climate change could get worse quickly if huge amounts of extra heat absorbed by the oceans are released back into the air, scientists said after unveiling new research showing that oceans have helped mitigate the effects of warming since 2000.
Heat-trapping gases are being emitted into the atmosphere faster than ever, and the 10 hottest years since records began have all taken place since 1998. But the rate at which the earth’s surface is heating up has slowed somewhat since 2000, causing scientists to search for an explanation for the pause.
What they’re looking for is a way to keep the cult going, along with the money train. They aren’t interested in scientific explanations based on, you know, science. Here they’re attempting to blame the oceans, a natural process, for all the missing warmth, and don’t you dare ask them any questions on how it all works nor why the whole cycle couldn’t be natural to start with.
“Global warming is continuing but it’s being manifested in somewhat different ways,” said Kevin Trenberth, of the U.S. National Center for Atmospheric Research. Warming can go, for instance, to the air, water, land or to melting ice and snow.
Warmth is spreading to ever deeper ocean levels, he said, adding that pauses in surface warming could last 15-20 years.
In other words, global warming is cold and snow and ice. It’s a continued release of CO2 and a 15+ year pause in warming. Of course, yes, they blame Mankind, because 4.5 billion years of climatic changes, the Sun, natural variation, all those should be discounted to keep the Cult Of Gore going.
Better check your tweet: The esteemed Mr Gore flunked out of divinity school at Vanderbilt.
Teach aren’t you now a warmist that is don’t YOU think the planet is getting warmer?
True that, Dana.
John, no. A Warmists believes that all the warming has been caused mostly or solely by Mankind. That is not what I believe.
Nice deflection
But you DO think that the planet is getting warmer right? Even though it did snow in Denver in April and snowed on some mountain top in Abu Dhabi some years ago. You do believe taht the polar ice cap is shrinking. Why do you think it is getting hotter, hot enough to melt the ice cap?
And do you think that 2010 was tied with 2005 as being the hottest years?http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories2011/20110112_globalstats.html?goback=.gde_1833110_member_408451
Or do you think those figures are part of the giant conspiracy?

Teach you have to realize that the tide has turned: America just doesn’t believe in Rush. Oh yeah he still has his loyal 15 million but his positions hurt the GOP more tahn they inspire the base. Evangelicals are now saying that the Bible says that we should change our immigration policies.

John, what’s you point? If our esteemed host does believe that the planet has gotten slightly warmer, but not that industrialization is the cause — and I’m not sure how industrialization has caused the slight global warming on Mars! — then why should you think he’s somehow hypocritical for not wanting to engage in all of the economy-killing “solutions” for a problem which he doesn’t believe exists?
The problem with the warmists, as Mr Teach calls them, is that the whole movement is led by huge hypocrites. When your patron saint is Al Gore, whose house in Nashville consumes more sparktricity than a whole neighborhood, and who spends his time fossil-fueling around the world, it’s difficult to take your leadership seriously.
John, I’m not going to engage in your obvious deflection away from the post, particularly since I’ve made my position clear numerous times.
So john, now that you seem to think that quoting the Bible is a moral standard (even though you are taking the verse out of textual and historical context) are you willing to say that abortion is wrong?
After all, the killing of an innocent life – especially that of a child – is condemned in the Bible.
Or is this just another deflection and hypocrisy from you?
There. Fixed it.
Climate change could get worse quickly if huge amounts of extra heat absorbed by the oceans are FURTHER ABSORBED DEEPER into the OCEAN and Satan breathes fire on it.
Fixed it further.
aaaahhhhh.. now that WOULD destroy the universe. With SATAN’s added CO2, that would decimate even fire insurance companies let alone the universe.
Teach is now 100% behind global warming ! just not 100% on AGW yet. could be something we just don’t know about. Yet.
dang john. got back on your meds again? Sounds like you accidentally let reason slip back in.
Welcome back to reality.
