No because when the math gets to complicated they give up and wait for someone to tell them an easier answer, whether it makes logical sense or not.

of course global warming is true. Do u really think that the edition of so many gases will have no effect? Come on now every school kid nows that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Global warming comes from many sources: distance from the sun, how much UV is deflected by the ozone layer, how much heat is absorbed by the earth and how much is deflected back into space, and how much heat is absorbed by the oceans. See our bioshpere is a delicate network. This is why there are locations at the same altitude (think about how parts of France have palm trees and how low Australia is compaired to the equator). If you understood how el Nino worked... which is basically a change in the direction the warm current moves in the ocean, then you would know that temperature changes have a huge effect on weather. Look as sunlight hits the atmosphere some is deflected into space and some gets in. The earth absorbs some of the light and the ice sheets help deflect much of it (and its heat with it). However since the caps are melting less of this heat is being deflected. Instead the oceans have been absorbing the heat by using the cold water at its depths to suplement the difference. Now we are facing the warming of the oceans nearing its limit and a higher absorption rate of heat per square mile on the earth's surface. As ice melts off contenents, mountains, and ect. it increases the mass against the plates (what land rests upon) and has a direct effect on preasures between the plates. The cycle is more earth quakes, more volcanic movement, bigger storms because of more water with dynamic thermal differences, and more sunami's from plate movement. Look global temperature change is nothing new to the planet... but we are accelerating this change. There is a delicate balance here. The earth enters an ice age which helps the ozone recover and slowly rebalances the thermals. When it gets extremely hot, the weather patterns will change because hot air is drawn to colder air. Well if all the air is hot then the cycle will be changed dramatically. We are seeing the beginning of this cycle well before the earth renters its iceages. The good news is that mankind has the ability to intervene. We should find a way to help manipulate our ozone and atleast duplicate the degree to which the ice caps deflect heat from the earth. If we were to go through the high cost of an international solar power station around the earth's orbit... we could absorb some of the heat to compensate while at the same time having a large energy source to help fuel the emerging space tourisim industry.
Now to answer your question the problem is that there are so many lies out there that people don't know who to believe. People want stability and therefore sometimes choose to listen to those lies. It is very difficult to say that my explaination applies in all cases... i doubt that severely. But the lack of a college education, personal investigation, web pages with false information (made by people with personal agendas), and unified agreement among the science world has left people in an answerless game of rhetoric. We simply need a better way of running our lives and country without destroying our beautiful democracy.
ok lets get something straight... god didn't come down to earth to place us here... if he is responsible for our existence then it would be explained through science.... if he operated beyone the laws of science (his creation i mind u) then he would not break them... and if he did we would see evidence of it. look this fool below is out of his skull... there is PROFF that there were many many different kinds of humanoids... how do u think we have 100's of species of dogs? geez we adapt to our conditions and in fact it is founded... yea u didn't know a damn thing when u were born but as u learned from others u utilized the brain that evolved over millenia... and yes we evolved this brain to survive... we had a competitive advantage.... they have REAL skulls to conferm this... and if u don't believe it then it's cause ur more content too read conspiracy theories then going out and testing on your own... and there are not tons of ppl against evolution... on religeous nuts with tampered books that they call the words of god... listen god didnt write the books man did.. get over it! geez u ppl make this world a scary place to drive in.. next ull be saying that the government lied and green means stop and red means go! GO TO COLLEGE B4 U TRY TO SOUND SMART!

Belief is irrelevant in the context of global warming. Environmental surveys made Year in and year out and the cataclasmic floods ,melting of snow and seasons are living testimonials of it. If somebody prefers not to take note of such stark facts is not likely to believe in evolution but would mentally try to explain away the evidence in its support. The formr is happening before us whereas we are the end-product(at this stage)of evolution. Whatever went before it ,even if not based entirely on conjectures,needs a very broad vision for its acceptance as truth. If one is adamant to deny the obvious he could hardly be expected to accept a construct.

Wow, sounds like you equate belief in a higher power to ignorance when they have nothing in common other than your disdain.
My personal belief? Religion is used as a crutch, and was originally designed to control the masses.
As far as global warming? When I read that the earth went through extremes before we were even around, I find it hard to swallow that what we do has such a big impact. The butterfly flapping his wings does NOT create a hurricane halfway around the world.

I would think that people with Fundamentalist beliefs who don't agree with the theory of evolution would be more likely to be skeptical of global warming as well.

Quantum physics presents another "explanation" for evolution that makes more sense to me than Darwin's. It has to do with probability wave collapse out of survival necessity, over thousands of years, if necessary.
Global warming I'm still not sold on. Industrialization is probably having an effect on ecology but it would be negligible in comparison to natural events that have thrown us into previous ice ages, etc.

Not beleiving in evolution is like not beleiving that an apple tree needs sunlight to grow, or that apples come from trees, anyway. Whether somebody "beleives" in evolution or not doesn't make a difference...it is something that has been proven time and time again, unlike religous things. This coming from a very religous person.

evolution is nonsense but global warming can be proved.

Do not see the link. I am sure there're people who go each&every way on this.
It is a common misconception that once you agree on one issue with some church/party/group, then you agree with them on the rest of issues. Most people can think for themselves and agree with lefties on one thing, and righties on something else.

Most probably don't. But then, they don't understand either one, that's why they are stuck with either "believing" in them or "not believing" in them. They don't have the will, or the capacity, to understand them.
