SCIENCE STUDY: CLIMATE CHANGE SKEPTICS KNOW MORE ABOUT SCIENCE THAN BELIEVERS

Quote
Despite allegations that they are tantamount to “flat earthers,” a study published Sunday in the Nature Climate Change journal indicates that climate change skeptics actually tend to have a slightly higher level of general scientific knowledge than those who believe in the theory.

The study drew the conclusion after asking 1,540 representative Americans a total of 22 questions, according to Fox News.

Of course, the source is Faux Snooze, so our little ostriches will use that as an excuse to bury their heads in the sand.

On a site where al Jazeera and the Islamabad Times are reliable sources, but Fox and even CNN at times are denounced as unreliable, that's a safe bet.

Those who refuse to believe in the obvious hoax know more about simple logic as well as basic science. People who still choose to "believe" in Global Warming (not gonna let the left redefine again) are those that know more about groupthink.

I'm a mechanical engineer with over 30 years of designing machines utilizing electro-magnetic radiation (UV, IR, X-RAY) and convection/conduction energy transfer. I have real world experience in making things work, not just theorizing (& that is a huge difference). I can tell you that the cause of temperature changes on earth are due to the massive unshielded thermo-nuclear reactor about 9 light minutes away from us.

I also have designed hundreds of temperature control systems and to be serious the tight control band the earth has is pretty amazing.

Of course, the average super genius of the left will think they know more than I because they read some slanted article by a journalist that can't understand why their steering wheel gets hot on a sunny day in the winter.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

The average intellect that falls for the idea of "consensus science", has to be in fact well below average.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
