Luke Scientiae commented on Luke Scientiae's blog post 'Rick Perry Fears The Lord. I Fear Rick Perry.'"Don't bother looking up more fallacies to parrot here, accusing me of not providing data, arguing from authority or anything else.
None of that holds water.

Luke Scientiae commented on Luke Scientiae's blog post 'Rick Perry Fears The Lord. I Fear Rick Perry.'"There's no point continuing. I've already listed a large number of topics of which the following are true:
1. You make points about whose evidence you are wilfully ignorant.
2. You don't cite any even vaguely respectable sources or…"
Luke Scientiae commented on Luke Scientiae's blog post 'Rick Perry Fears The Lord. I Fear Rick Perry.'"I did forget to address one of your claims, another ridiculous one, btw - that scientists have stopped using "global warming" and are saying "climate change" instead.
That is bullshit.

Your point that dealing with climate is going to destroy the "wealth creation" is utter rubbish. The economy can and should readjust and forecasts are that reacting to climate by re-arranging production of greener energy is…"

You have now asserted all manner of complete nonsense and I've shown you why it is nonsense. You have not replied to any of my rebuttals.

Republican presidential wannabe Rick Perry has no regard for science, alleging that man-made global warming is a hoax, and that creationism ought to be taught in classrooms. Here are some of his Godly ravings. Let them be a warning. And what does it say about the US political system that things get so bad that (nearly) every Republican front runner has to be a moron and that the Republicans aren't political pariahs despite this? Amongst the Republican candidates the only ones that believe in…See More

I just realised that one of the links I sent you - the one to the leaked IPCC memo showing Exxon influencing Bush to sack IPCC members - was the wrong link. It's a copy/paste error. Here is the correct link to the PDF.

Luke Scientiae commented on Luke Scientiae's blog post 'Rick Perry Fears The Lord. I Fear Rick Perry.'"Hi Eric,
Jon Huntsman believes in evolution and the genuine climate science. That's not to say I think his policies on other subjects are sound or even sensible. I'm commenting only the basic recognition of scientific realities.

At the start of this comment I mentioned that you presumably value evidence when it comes to atheism and religion. It seems that is as far as it goes, which is terribly inconsistent of you. My impression is that…"

I don't doubt that you are sincere, but you are mistaken. I do doubt that you can be persuaded.
