it's natural. We humans think too much of ourselves. Our planet undergoes natural heating and cooling cycles......which results in massive changes in our planets ecosytems and inhabitants. The cycle has been going strong for billions of years........long before the first aresol can was invented. The cycle will continue for billions more years after our species has gone extinct, too fragile to survive in the changed environment. We'll be right there with the mamoth.......and global warming and global cooling will still be going on.
Global warming has long been presented as a man-made notion of fancy, greeted with rolled eyes. However, if one considers the 92+% of credible scientists that have observed that it is the #1 threat facing humanity, then you have to take it as a scientific fact. However, if you've already placed your head between your knees and resolved to pray while you kiss your ass goodbye, then there's nothing left to say to you. Keep thumping your bible until the events in revelations happen because of mankinds tendancy to pollute and destroy. I think that's called a self-fulfilling prophecy.
#1. If you've read any of my posts at all......you'll find I'm not religious, much less Christian.
#2. Nobody's debating if Global Warming exists. It certainly does. Those scientists are very correct and it is a great threat to our species. The question posed was about cause. As you stated, it's a threat to our species......it was also a threat to many species who died due to it's affects before our species ever walked the earth. Why try to blame something natural on humans?

My post was not directed at you. It was only a general post.
But, to address your first point, if there are so many non-religious conservatives, when are they going to do something about the hi-jacking of their party by the christian right? I guess that's off topic, but it's something I've thought about often.
non-religous conservatives?........that's like an oxymoron...........
I myself am a democrat......beyond that, I don't believe in labels to group myself in with other people.......I think for myself on every issue, no need for any label.......
due to separation of church and state, republican is just the politically correct way to refer to a Christian.
