Drama & Spam / Re: SO you dont believe in God.
« on: Wednesday, April 22, 2015, 19:15:28 PM »
Vegeta there's plenty of reasons to distrust governments but you don't have to immediately deny everything connected to a government... Besides, name something that isn't connected to a government, everything is in one way or another.

Do you realize how unbelievably hypocritical you have been in this thread? I feel bad for the disrespect you've got but I think that you've earned it with your posts. On the other hand, you have disrespected everyone else. Do you understand the concept of a carbon footprint? It's not a scam, everyone has one. I haven't seen anyone in this thread mention forced regulation of carbon output or UN control over countries or anything like that. There's certainly a debate to be had there (though you have made it clear that you don't want a debate). But there isn't much of a debate whether humans have caused changes in the climate. And it's also pretty clear what effects those changes will have, from rising temperatures and sea level to more frequent extreme weather events. Sorry to everyone for bringing up climate change, but like I said I just knew that Vegeta would have a lot to say using typical talking points based on fear because he is so predictable.

Do our own research? That requires a lot of money man... [EDIT: Wait what did you mean by that exactly? You can't expect us to conduct serious scientific studies..? And you don't accept what the "school" tells us. So you just want us all to cite websites like you did with "bible" in the title?]

I did take a paleoclimatology class a couple years ago though and it's really not that relevant nor profound research (2nd year undergrad) but I guess I did it myself and that seems to be what you're crying for. I used a global circulation model to look at CO2 / CH4 / etc levels in the atmosphere over the course of millennia to show that human changes on greenhouse gas levels began long before industrialization. It was a test of another dude's hypothesis (Ruddiman, I guess look him up if you want he's not that interesting) but my tests supported his theory.

tl;dr
Humans have messed with methane levels ever since we started irrigation and plants decayed faster in rice fields. Climate change is most certainly an intensification of that simple fact: nature goes through cycles to reach equilibrium and we don't understand that completely so we fuck it up.

Take this too, I turned in a paper on the Lake Tahoe physical and cultural landscapes yesterday:

http://www.laketahoenews.net/2013/06/scientist-details-human-impact-on-lake-tahoe/
"Over the course of 30 years, Goldman has also seen the overall temperature of Lake Tahoe increase by about 1 degree. His graphs showed that while the maximum and minimum temperatures of Lake Tahoe fluctuate constantly, the average maximum temperature has remained virtually the same; it is the average minimum temperature that appears to be rising at a relatively steady rate. This means the lake is not cooling off at night like it used to, the result of increased CO2 in the atmosphere."

LOL Vegeta you said literally exactly what I expected/wanted you to say.

I can't understand how anyone can really deny climate change. Lake temperatures are rising all over the globe, Arctic is melting, 99% of scientists agree... I mean, if nothing else maybe God is using climate change for an apocalyptic event right??

So if it's not real, why do so many scientists and others talk about it? Is it the big bad USA/EU trying to stifle development in China and India? Is it those pesky liberals trying to cut down energy corporation profits?

I was completely serious Koden

*EDIT*

Mmmmm Spanky nice, can I not give +1 Interwebz reputation anymore?

In the aftermath of this thread, the Drama and Spam board is a ghost town.

*clears throat*

Climate change is a serious friqqin' problem, something everyone needs to consider and address. By reacting and adapting to climate change, countless social problems can be solved.

I always see people worried about scaring away new users, but are there really any new users? It's just people who come across Assist who played AA2 for years already right? They shouldn't care if if it's not that active cuz they were already interested when they visited the site. And in that case they should already be aware that this game (like most others) is full of flaming and argument and bullshit.

And like it's already been said countless times, no noobs will want to stay because it's frankly not fun if you're not good. I've played this game on and off for nine years and I still never get kills unless it's a sniper round and I get lucky. I only stay cuz nostalgia, the key factor that any new player lacks.

Hey Vegeta you're stupid. Don't be so defensive against evolution, it really doesn't challenge the existence of a God. The dumb stuff in the Bible challenges it more than science.

I believe that evolution occurs in all life, except humans. I don't think we came from apes but rather that God made us in his image and put us on this Earth so that we could pwn the noob animals and use all the resources, then he'll Rapture us to heaven and start us all over on another planet.

I don't know man, I don't think Jesus supported big government or gay marriage. :P

Jesus fought against the state like all heroic Democrats do. Jesus would be pals with Rachel Maddow if he were around today (physically that is, I feel his presence now actually)

I remember like 7 years ago agreeing with Nate that holidays are stupid, but whatever. Happy Easter.
