Is it because George W (the annointed one) told them it was a myth?

I think it has to do with the fact that we've been burned before; I'm sure you're aware that, by now, acid raid was proven to be a hoax in order to get scientists more funding to "study" it, right? And then there's the fact that 30 years ago the planet was on an inescapable spiral into global cooling..
I guess, as a fundamentalist, you get experience with being fooled and eventually start to question what's being presented. ;)
I can't speak for anyone else, naturally, but the idea that humans are the primary cause of global warming is pretty silly to me after reading about the plentiful sources of methane and other contributors to whatever's happening. I guess we're just a bit more skeptical?

Probably the same reasons as atheists deny the existance of Global Warming, they don't believe it because it is inconvenient. Has NOTHING to do with religions. Sorry if you are so narrow-minded that you think it does.

Climate change happens. It has been demonstrated top happen over the centuries. Because it HAS happened in the past, before the industrial revolution, I have my doubts about whether or not mankind is causing it.
I just question the motives and political agendas of many of those withing the "man causes global warming" community.

I'm not quite the hardcore fundamentalist I used to be, but I still have no idea where you get this stuff. Could you cite a source for this tidbit of data? Personally, I'm not sure how much truth there is to global warming...it might be real, it might not...so I'm keeping my options open on this one for the time being.

sigh.
I'm a Christian through and through and I do worry over global warming. I also am not a Republican, and I didn't vote for him in the last election.
He's our leader so I won't speak ill of him.

I am not familiar with this belief. If what you say is true, it must only be a small minority of "fundamental" Republicans who believe this.

I've been wondering this same thing.
It may be a lack of understanding of basic science, for one thing. Obviously, fundamentalists have that going for them.
But it does seem odd to me. Not only do they tend to not believe it exists, but they often seem angrily opposed to even discussing it. It's almost as if they actually WANT to destroy us all.
(In fact, I seem to recall Ann Coulter saying something like "God gave us this planet to rape and plunder as we see fit" (Not an exact quote, but scary to be sure))
