| SpokenTruth said: It was scientific long before it was political. The reason you don't see a debate now is because that happened already. It's done. The concensus from the scientific community has been made. And it was made long before politics came into play. |
That's the wrong attitude to have right out of the starting gate. Science is never settled just like every year we learn new things about our universe that completely blow away theories from even just 20 years ago. The science is only "settled" because it has become politically incorrect to question it. The left-wing elites have grown in political power over recent decades and now it is academic suicide to speak out against climate change in any university. Heck, they are even talking about making it illegal to question man-made global warming in the public forum:

In my opinion, Anthropogenic Global Warming has more in common with a man-made religious inquisition then it does with real science. Men like Dr. Roy Spencer are modern day Galileo's for questioning AGW and he (and people like him) have been severely persecuted as a result. If the science behind AGW was sound, then there would be no need for this kind of barbarism and opression of free thought. Climate Change justifies carbon taxes and government control over people's lives and that is why it is being forced on people. It is a vehicle to take away personal freedom and empower elites such as Goldman Sachs who control the government and most big corporations. I believe that the real motivation behind AGW has nothing to due to with true science.
