why don't we take madness out of the equation since nuclear bombs aren't that much dropped, and vulcano's are too cool to bomb.
I was taking your argument that "humans are incapable of changing the climate, therefore anthropogenic global warming is bunk" to its logical extreme, and showing your premise to be false.
Now that we can agree that humans
are capable of changing the climate, we should also be able to agree that dismissing anthropogenic global warning simply because it's impossible for people to change the climate isn't acceptable. You need to show why one set of human activities (deforestation, burning large amounts of fossil fuels) does not affect the climate, despite the supporting data and plausible proposed mechanism, while another (detonating nuclear bombs) does.
You know, honestly engage with the science instead of dismissing the notion as ridiculous on its face.
Either that or fuck right off.

I don't deny climate change that would be silly since it has been happening forever, I don't believe we can have anything to do with it that is insane we can't change the climate of a planet we are to the planet what ants are to us.
That's right, we can dump thousands of pounds of shit into the air every day with absolutely no effect. Just like we can produce tons of garbage and it doesn't end up floating in giant patches in the oceans and we never ever have gone through any droughts cause every time I've turned on the tap water has come out and we've never reduced any species to near extinction because that'd be impossible because there's so many animals!. Just keep your head under the blanket and none of the boogeymen will get you.

Jesus Christ, while I was willing to give you the benefit of a doubt, you're just a dismissive,
self-aggrandising, self-righteous pissant. All of your little tirades fly in the face of logic.
So your country's forcing you to pay taxes that you feel aren't justified? Boo fucking hoo. Welcome to the world. Maybe if you ignore it and everything in it hard enough it'll all disappear and everything will be all right.
EDIT: Whee, I really should use that shiny quote function next time I reply to posts above my own.
EDIT 2: And I am going to. I'm just quoting this for posterity. Frag's already apologised, so no harm done. Right?
EDIT 3: I'm angling for the serial revisionist award here, yes sir.

Would apreciate it if you removed that, save it for posterity all you want but I shouldn't have posted that. You will not get me at the side of the warming crowd but I am not an absolute asshole either, that was wrong and I am sorry.
