Global Warming: Is humanity screwed?

[Perndog]

I'm glad we cleared that up. The Internet is the best place to act ridiculous, you know. In real life, of course, I'm too busy being dark and scary to do things like this.

Want me to start a new thread about how AIDS isn't caused by a virus and doctors are killing people by giving them drugs for HIV? I'm sure you'd love that.

it's not like i mentioned that you learned it in elementary school as the FACT OF THE MATTER
the "fact of the matter" was already stated. It doesn't need an "ANGLE."
How the hell would angles make something more valid?

IF I SAY THIS FACT IN THIS WAY SOMEONE WILL THINK ITS BULLSHIT
BUT IF I ANGLE THIS FALSITY IN A GOOD WAY THEN IT WILL BE TRUE
ANGLES MAKE THIngS TRUE OR FALSE

you act like an annoying mystical magic moon fairy. "SCIENCE? SCIENCE HAS BEEN PROVEN WRONG BEFORE. YOUR IDEAS ARE SHIT." "ELEMENTARY SCHOOL? ELEMENTARY SCHOOL HAS BEEN PROVEN WROng befoRE. YOUR IDEA IS SHIT."
irrelevant.

I know all I have to do is say that it is OFFICIALLY ENDORSED BY THE CHURCH OF SATAN AND EGOS EVERYWHERE! and the vampire bible approves of it 100%!!! If you read and accept this theory, you will have eternal life. Fact.

The point is that I think these things are incorrect, but the only justifications given for them in this thread are "everyone says it's true", and like you just said,

venus is the hottest planet in the solar system because heat can't escape it (you might've learned that in elementary school, I know I did) and that the reason heat can't escape it is because it has a c02 rich environment

You said "I learned this in elementary school" like that makes it the most obvious thing in the world and only a moron would disagree. You didn't offer any other explanation. So I argued with the only bit of reasoning you gave me. If you want me to respond better than that, like I said, give me a better "angle" meaning argue in a different manner why what you say is true. Give me some compelling scientific explanation rather than telling me that there's some consensus on the issue or that any schoolchild knows it's true, and I'll respond to that.

Uhh, I put it in parenthesis. Usually when people do that it means it's an ASIDE or just extra information.
I already posted the "Science."
