No Conscenus

Well guys, I love it when this happens, I get to once again take a hammer to th Idol of the Consensus on Global Warming. And the best part, all that the Priors ever do is sit there asking each other "What hammer? We don't see a hammer."

This latest update in the Idol bashing comes to us from Earthtimes.org of all places. It was originally published by the Hudson Institute, located in New York City.

In the report, titled "Challenge to Scientific Consensus on Global Warming: Analysis Finds Hundreds of Scientists Have Published Evidence Countering Man-Made Global Warming Fears"

Wow, do I really love that title.

And, the opening two paragraphs just absolutely blew me away.

A new analysis of peer-reviewed literature reveals that more than 500 scientists have published evidence refuting at least one element of current man-made global warming scares. More than 300 of the scientists found evidence that 1) a natural moderate 1,500-year climate cycle has produced more than a dozen global warmings similar to ours since the last Ice Age and/or that 2) our Modern Warming is linked strongly to variations in the sun's irradiance. "This data and the list of scientists make a mockery of recent claims that a scientific consensus blames humans as the primary cause of global temperature increases since 1850," said Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Dennis Avery.

Other researchers found evidence that 3) sea levels are failing to rise importantly; 4) that our storms and droughts are becoming fewer and milder with this warming as they did during previous global warmings; 5) that human deaths will be reduced with warming because cold kills twice as many people as heat; and 6) that corals, trees, birds, mammals, and butterflies are adapting well to the routine reality of changing climate.

Wow, that is very damning to the Goracle and his position, and hey, the Priors might actually come out and debate us now that this point has been made.

Now, I have had some people ask me "What is a Prior?" So, at the risk of sounding like a geek (as if writing a science based attack blog on Global Warming doesn't already prove that), the Prior is a religious head from the television series Stargate SG-1. They are well known for their twisting of the religious scriptures to fit what they want them to say, and have been known to catch their opponents on fire for heresy. Sounds almost like the Spanish Inquisition, eh?
