@bubbah skepticalscience is NOT an impartial nor reputable source of facts concerning climate change. Remember the Royal Society's motto-take nobody's word for it.

@ZachariahLogan You could easily learn about the facts by looking them up on a reputable site. Such as SkepticalScienceDOTcom.

@4thcoming Collins can only think critically about certain things. Certainly not religion. It's called cognitive dissonance, and is maintained used mental compartmentalization.

Another word: Compartmentalization.

[bubbah]

Two words: Cognitive. Dissonance.

Great! I'm glad this series included an openly religious scientist. We are not as rare as people would think.

Climate Change can be understood through the garden of Eden. Tree culture for food (nuts, seeds, fruit, greens, sap, edible bark), water, materials, energy, air, soil & wildlife is 100 X more productive per human energy invested & products / area harvested. Artifice (human-centered) vs natural scientists are innumerate (difficulty with life's calculation) so retreat into simpler mechanical equation. See Indigene Community

@WAKeele I disgree about that. Francis Collins, former head of the Human Genome project is a Christian and can think critically as can many Christians I know including myself. Others come to mind such as Alister McGrath, William Dembski, Richard T. Wright, Katharine Hayhoe, Sean McDowell, Jonathen Wells, Greg Koukl of Stand To Reason, William Lane Graig, Lee Strobel and others like those on youtube and facebook such as FirstFreedomFighter, HonestThiest, acemcdonut2, djchrist15, bassmmbn3, etc.

@AcidRain64 If you think the historic method meets the level of certainty science would ask for, you're a joke. Go look up why historians believe Socrates existed, or the accounts of the Jewish-Roman wars. The line between true history and myth is indescernable. Much of history is written hundreds of years after the fact, and intergrated with tales of the supernatural. Metaphysics is the basis of reality! Without metaphysics there can be no scientific method!
