However, there are thousands upon thousands of scientists who have signed public statements that do not believe that at least there is not enough evidence

I don’t think so. Global warming denialists are a tinyt minority in the scientific community. They get out-of-proportion attention simply because one of the major American parties has bought into its radical agenda. Trust me, as on so many other issues, people in other countries do not think this way.

Oh, and Michael Crichton was a novelist, not a scientist.

And the UN is approved by the Church as the representative of the global community, including as the final arbiter of issues related to war and peace.

1. http://www.oism.org/pproject/ 31,000 American Scientists 95% PhD Verification Rate.
2. Michael Crichton did not hold himself up to be a “Scientist” (However I think you and I both know he was a medical Doctor) Rather he was concerned about Science being corrupted via money and politics. You do not need to be a Scientist to hold, argue and study this position…
3. At the rate the U.N is going…I am sure the church will either withdraw or seek to change from within

Right, because all of the pro-life legislation enacted solely by Republicans is totally meaningless and mere posturing.

How absurd.

I very much like what Greens and Democrats offer but certainly if one wishes one can find plenty of not exactly impressive or particular kosher democratic OPERAtives – Murtha? Rangle? Dodd? Shumer?

Frankly there is also some danger in overselling something as scientifically complex as global warming.
Responsible scientist typically admit the limitation of their data.

In my mind the verdict is not quite out if the likely rush towards ‘zero’ carbon nuclear energy will work out all that great for humankind.

Personally I prefer the somewhat charming stumbles and rumbles of a Steele and yes Rush over the ice cold cynical executed deadly effective ploys of the Cheneys of this world.

Unfortunatelly it seems to me that the Obama financial team has quite a few of the Cheneyesque Figures.
“Nothing we could do legally” Summers comes to mind.

Nobody in any other country tries to deny communion for voting for anybody at all, from Le Pen to the Italian communists. The calls for such to happen are largely American problem, because that’s how evangelicals do politics. And as far as I know, it applies to one renegade priest who refused communion to Douglas Kmiec, and he was in turn chastised by his bishop. Are there others I am missing?

I think the Repunican party is actually worse beucause they do nothing for abortion (talk is as cheap as a share in a major bank), while killing and torturing a lot of people who would not otherwise be killed and tortured.

But no one has ever been denied communion for voting republican.
