The controversy is not going away

Apropos of nothing whatsoever, I've never really given two hoots for Sagan or Heinlein. So there's that.

Your 'stance' on climate change, for starters. There's been other things that, honestly, are inconsistent. You parrot talking points that are scientifically unprovable, but throw a few bones here and there that may hint you can see how the bulk of the science is in many instances profit-driven self promotion. I'm not saying you need to take a hard firm stance, because I sometimes don't when there's opinion involved (I only truly believe verifiable, provable science but I'm open for speculation) but quoting media outlets as truths doesn't help to firm up ones position. Especially earlier today with using HuffPo as a source? That raised more eyebrows than just mine.

In a nutshell, I'm left wondering if you're as vigilant in seeking truths as you say, so it leaves me wondering - troll or other? Either way it certainly makes for good discussion and if people are thinking we're all winning.

Troll?
Hardly.
PM'ed ya'.

Apples and oranges.

Heinlein is fiction. Not my passion.
Sagan elegantly, eloquently and poetically described the cosmos which you and I occupy. My passion.

The DNA hers was compared to was people from Mexico, Peru, and Columbia. It was not compared to Native Americans living in the United States. Data for Native Americans is not publicly available. She has not really apologized. She just says she is not a member of the tribe. She still believes she is a Native American. The Dems will not hesitate to backstab each other. I am thinking Kamala Harris and "I am Spartacus" will be the first to go. They may not survive the Iowa primary which is first.

OMG! The article at that link even refers to climate change way back (7.2 million years) then! Those hominids must have been driving cars and riding in jet airplanes! Sorry, couldn't help myself.

This thread is awesome. Even back in Cowboy n Injun times, we believed in climate change. Why else would we have given them blankets?

The climate in my house changes with the thermostat and whether or not the wife is mad at me.

Actually, back in cowpoke and injun times, man-made climate change was the accepted wisdom of the day.

It turned out to be bunk, but it WAS the accepted wisdom of the time.

Nobody disputes the climate changes, what most of us dispute is the claim the Earth will be destroyed in 10 year as a result.

Maybe not accepted wisdom but a salesman’s pitch to get folks to move west. Also, think about all potions and tonics that were sold around the same time.

Widely accepted or widely told?

I think there are plenty of disputes as to the cause of the climate change.

. . . and that's why it's not settled science--even among scientists.

Because time after time they are proven wrong in sooooo many cases. All of those degrees only prove they were good in school, not smarter than everyone else.
