I often wonder if there is a large overlap of people that disregard global warming theory with the people that disregard evolution. Understanding the mechanics of both theories requires abstract thinking over extremely large scales of time and space. In their primary arguments, creationists often cite the incomprehensibility of small random changes developing the amazing complexity of living systems. A similar argument is made against global warming theory -- that mankind as a whole could possibly make a dent in the atmosphere. Are there just a brain-type or personality-type, (or IQ-level?) where a person simply cannot Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis concepts involving scales far beyond one's basic surroundings?

How can a mere 6-billion people possibly impact the climate of something so large as the earth? I just can't see it....

Interesting theory. I don't believe in Global Warming or Santa Claus, but it sure is hot outside.

i believe in the theory that the accumulation of thousands of little insignificant posts on this forum can combine to form a giant turd. does that count?

Actually global warming is real. You can actually feel it. In fact Nyc was never as hot as its been these past couple of years.

I remember when i was younger summers were awesome to go outside and play. Summers were bareable and you'd be able to enjoy them. Now with all the heat plus the humidity its not even fun to stand out there, nor is it sexy lol.

COmpletely off topic but triggered because of the thoughts of me when i was younger while i was on vacation i saw videos of yarr and tal when they were kids. And i saw yarr dress as a pirate as a kid, and i thought that was f**king cool lol. And as for tal half the time he was sleeping lolol. Awesome.

Well, at least this post has something worth to argue about, unlike the other trolling. Not sure why ppl are crying for this one..


Global warming is real, and we arent helping for sure. It would be interesting to see how far it could, and if it's possible to break the unstable balance of the nature.

Im not sold on Global Warming.


Personally I just look at it as the most sensible theory right now. I dont think the effects of humans is as bad as what the media reports. I also think alot of people use "Global Warming" as another fear tactic.

Yes the earth is getting warmer. Yes there is a problem with our C02 levels.

The media really makes this problem look a lot more simple than it really is. If it were a simple fact of "More C02 = Higher Temp" than the earth would be a fair bit warmer. theres also the fact that most predictions based off of C02 data never adds up.

I would say that Global Warming makes the most sense, but it has its flaws.

On a larger scales, it's easy to see more CO2 will create a global warming. The physics behind it is simple. What's happening on Venus is probably the easiest example to see how bad CO2 can warm an atmosphere.


Not saying Earth will become like this, but if a large amount of CO2 increase temperature, a small amount is still going to affect it.

we need population control

I'm not saying we pull a Hitler here I'm just advocating our nation and other nations adopt a more solid stance on birth control

We are growing at an exponential rate

More and more natural resources are declining, global warmig is heating up

Maybe the Matrix movie was right when Smith compared the human species to a virus. Virus's exhibit behavior to multiply out of control until the host is dead. You see if things keep going the way they are we will also multiply exponentially out of control (over thousands of years of course) until we kill the earth or there is no longer any room on the planet to stand on.

Everytime I see a father or mother that abandons a relationship from children, people with 4-5 kids and unable to support them or pregnant teens that throw their children upon their own parents I not only look upon them with empathy and feel sorry for them, I'm starting to look at them with anger and frustration. These idiots are ensuring the survival of their genetic code. A code that wasn't smart enough to not wait, use birth control, or be responsible in the 1st place! When we get people like this that multiply in our society and it seems more and more like an accepted norm, we're only speeding things up here.

They were complaining about the 4 threads I made I think lol. It just happens that this was the thread they complained on. I made threads on spazoutny, spazkitty and spaz.org. The other threads were deleted by admin. Which is understandable. I'm sorry I made so many topics all at once of dumb stuff.

Global warming is fairly realistic.

Check that link, and you can read quite a bit of stuff about it.
