you mean the next piece of the increasingly complete jigsaw puzzle.

if you look for anything on the internet you will find it. Penguins can't fly, heres footage of them flying http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrxmpihCjqw&NR=1&feature=fvwp it doesnt mean penguins can fly though. This is the the problem that i was refering to in my earlier post, most dont have the ability to weigh up the oposing arguements. What possible reasons could the oil men have for stating that global warming isnt happening? If you cant think of any for yourself, then no matter what anyone else says to you, you wont believe them.
Why is it important to define the tactics of denialism? Good faith discussion requires consideration of the full body of scientific evidence. This is difficult when confronted with rhetorical techniques which are designed to distort and distract. Identifying and publicly exposing these tactics are the first step in redirecting discussion back to a focus on the science.
Oil men exist. Conspiracy of 'an elite cabal ruling the world' probably does not.
The likelyhood of all the world's scientists conspiring to promote a government agenda is slim to none.
I arrived at the conclusions I have arrived at by careful consideration of the case as presented by all sides.
Nothing at all 'faith like' in my conclusions.
If you bother to seriously study up on the science, the conclusion is inescapable.
global warming is simple physics and easily demonstrated.
All the world's scientists have data to support man-made global warming at their command? Really?! And you've examined all the relevant data yourself? Damn, I guess I'm out of my league here. But have you done a google search for antarctic ice? What comes up but antarctic ice growing? There seems to be research indicating such. How does that fit in to the "Science of Global Warming?"
I would like to express my appreciation to dagnabit for doing his best to exemplify the tactics outlined in the original post. His examples have done more to prove the point of the original post, than any other single thing in the entire thread.
kudos, dagnabit on a classic denialist role perfectly played.
kudos and thanks.
ips, is your objection the science or the fact that it will cost you more to continue to damage the earth?

your welcome!
and give yourself a pat too pot. the kettle cant take all the credit.
but this thread is about denialisim right? its not anything specific you are referring to is it?
so far your tactics concerning creationisim are those of a "denialist"
i did not think we were debating anything else.
but your gonna be the first in scientific history to prove a negative using the scientific method!
revolutionary!!!!
amazing!!!!!
a whole new world!!!
science can now disprove god once and for all!!!
can anyone say nobel?!?!?
Please, take the time to have all of your questions answered, at my friend's website which has taken the time to collect and collate all of the pertinent information. If you honestly seek the answers to your questions there, and still think AGW is a new world order fabrication, I'll be more than happy to continue this discussion.

I will willingly consider any evidence you can provide which you think is unaccounted for as well.
My friends at skeptical science have some an excellent job presenting information, and even post up both sides of the email discussions they've had with some of the more prominent deniers.
Please.
I'd love to talk to someone skeptical who is willing to be rational and explore all the sides of the issue along with me...
finally..
we all admit its just another "global warming" thread...
awesome the bullshit pretense is done...
have fun..
"denialisim"
LOL
