#1 In 16th and 17th century Europe, thousands were executed for what was called "weather cooking," where religious and political institutions blamed witches - mostly women - for poor growing periods or storms.

Today, we blame contemporary capitalistic based societies who refuse to bend their knee at the alter of inevitable global socialism. Kiss my moral authority you cretins! /sarcasm off

#2 I'm amazed anyone has to say this. Since it was determined Mars has been warming up it seems a somewhat obvious answer. The arguement is really about "man-made" global warming and if global warming of a degree or so is really a problem or something that may already have peaked (back in 1998).

Of course it's a religion so you gotta have faith.

#4 first off my smartass comment, it took astrophycist too come up with this? Wouldn't this go right along with the theory that when the sun starts too burn out it would start too expand hence making earth and mars alot hotter.

#5 So now 'Global Warming' is due to man-made sun expansion....

And yes, I really think there are people who would b believe that and alledged 'scientists' who would certify it....

#12 Paul, hot air rises, the Sun is up. It doesn't get any clearer than that. Before we gog here the Sun was a luke warm ball of fun and we've turned it into a freaking inferno.

#14 Check out Cosmic Rays and their effect on the Earth's climate.

It's GWB's fault.

#16 But-t-t DAY AFTER TOMORROW told the entire world "SOLAR OUTPUT IS NORMAL" ergo Mankind and only Mankind - you know, the USA - was the SOLE CAUSE of Warming???

SO, IS THE SUN "NORMAL/OKAY"? OR DOES OWG MADONNA'S, ETC. DADDY HAVE TO PSYCHOKINETICALLY DIVERT PLANET X, ETC. INTO THE SUN TO REFURBISH ITS NUCLEAR REACTIONS???

Lest we fergit, NET article > IS THE SUN RUNNING OUT OF IRON?
