I am a agnostic and as far as climate change being real or man made, I will just say there is only so much you can pee in your pool before you have wrecked the joint.
In Australia the most high profile skeptics believe in god....yes they do not believe in climate change because it can not be 'proved', but they believe in a magical man in the sky who created the earth and the universe and who had a son who was killed and then rose from the grave..
Most of the Liberal frontbench, the family first party and Andrew Bolt question flat out deny climate change, yet are all believers in god.
People I know who proclaim it's garbage because there is no proof will attend church on Sunday or were married in a church.
Priministers, most of them, will use a bible when sworn in (julia didn't and there was an uproar).
Poeple wear crosses and believe a god listens to them when they speak and this is never questioned as much as climate change.
There have been claims by Mr Bolt and several deniers such as Lord Monckton that the likes of Flannery and Al Gore are making themsleves wealthy by decieving people with the idea of climate change.
The same thing is beinf done with Christianity in both our country and the united states, allot of wealthy churches out there using God to make them rich.
The current Priminister who does not believe in climate change as it cannot be proven, yet he believes in an entity that nobody can prove exists and a book that nobody can prove is the word of any god. That being a christian or Catholic god, Jesus christ and the bible.
We base our laws on a religion that has no proof of if it is real, we tell homosexuals they cannot marry based on a religion that worships an unproven god and reads a book that was written by someone we have no proof exists.
We have stopped funding 'cliamate scientists' as we once did (7 of the 10 Government appointed have been fired) because the government did not want to spend money on something that is ' unproven'.
yet we fund christianity with handouts to christian schools and tax bonuses for religions who worship gods that cannot be proven.
Why is it christianity requires no proof, while questioning the future of the earth is all up in the air?
Both subjects cost us money and effect our lives.
We truly are a nation of hypocrites if we can't question both in the same way when both are 'beliefs' that hold the same weight.

from what i've been led to believe gavo, the majority of reporting is done by someone who never posts and hasn't for years. whoever it is they dont pick sides, just individuals.

Ohmahgerd, Gore has more money than God, does that make him a Global Warming diety? Or just a bloated overweaning propagandist scare monger.

the brothers who invented denial (the kind you practice) are richer men than Gore by many times. the Koch brothers fund everything from tobbacco industry protection to climate denial (energy tycoons) with the setting up of fake 'institutes' such as heartland.
gore puts his money to a worthy cause, the denialist base is a fake set up to keep the koch's and others from losing out.
which is to say , your entire belief system in respect of climate is based on a fraud perpetuated by big energy.. it must be humiliating to be so malleable
