More on the effort to liken climate to evolution.
The Washington Times reports,
Climate change subscribers say the fight against global warming will require younger soldiers.
On Monday, the National Center for Science Education, a nonprofit group that denounces intelligent design and supports an evolution-only curriculum in the classroom, will expand its mission. The organization of scientists, anthropologists and others is turning its attention to climate change, and it will mount an aggressive effort to teach the nation’s schoolchildren that climate change is real and is being driven by human activity.
“For 20 years, we’ve helped teachers cope with what we can only describe as societal or political problems in teaching evolution. They’re running into the same opposition in teaching climate change,” NCSE Executive Director Eugenie Scott said. “We worry, because of our experience with evolution, that basic science is going to be compromised as a result of this political and ideological opposition. Good science needs to be taught”…
@Jek: You’re right! Climate science is disputed and has to be one of the largest and most powerful hoaxes ever! When will people wake up and realize it’s so big that it encompasses many thousands of uncontroversial publications and respected scientists from around the world, stretching back for almost 150 years?! It’s such a powerful hoax too, powerful enough to co-opt the official positions of dozens of respected scientific organizations! Obviously we’re not missing any clear indication of a widespread attempt to falsify and coordinate findings on a scale so massive that it holds together a global cabal or significantly distorts the record on climate. Let’s also not forget climate scientists hide much of their relevant information in public databases or otherwise publicly accessible resources. Those who buy into the CLEARLY FALSE THEORY that climate change is happening, let alone human-driven conveniently ignore this when insisting that scientists aren’t stonewalling information requests. If BELIEVERS want to deal a devastating blow to us “climate deniers”, they should use the public data and develop their own credible models to demonstrate sound alternatives. Obviously, this conspiracy by climate change perpetrators is so vast that it altered the famous 2004 report “The Scientific Consensus on Climate Change” which analyzed 928 papers on climate science. This inside manipulation is so UNBELIEVABLE, they managed to falsify nearly all of them: 75 percent explicitly or implicitly supported anthropogenic global warming, 25 percent were methodological or otherwise took no position on the subject—and none argued for purely natural explanations. This inside manipulation and coordination is a travesty!
I always thought there was a conflict with believing in evolution, the idea that the earth and all life are constantly changing, and the idea of man made global warning, the idea that the Earth should remain at a constant temperature for all recorded history. I always thought the religious group would be more concerned with global warming since they believe the Earth was created a few thousand years ago. However, given the idea the Earth is billions of years old, how concerned can you possibly be over a few degree change? The Earth’s surface used to be molten lava.
IMO, the “scientists” NEED to be gone-after, because what they REALLY want is a horde of brain-washed apparacheks,–demon-strators,–our children,–that can pressure politicians to do the stupid thing, go-along with Concensus. Science does NOT “need” to be taught, except perhaps how to read data, that’s un-compromised. Concensus takes repetition, or learning. Science that is research is simply following the protocol, which is DOING, NOT “learning”. Once the data is obtained, THEN you can see what happened, writing-up results. These groups should be “tied-up” with lawsuits,–if not in state/federal courts, then small claims, because the funds gleaned, can go towards larger battles. That’s the only reason they’re around, subverting our children–no one has SUED them to a standstill. With Michael Mann lying in those emails, we see that the science of Climate IS disputed, and with greater and greater frequency. Of course, I wasn’t speaking of all scientists, ONLY those who cling to any agenda determined by concensus, not data, and those who advance the lying fiction that there’s man-caused global-warming.
