Global warming LOL (part 3) -Scientist admit they were wrong

Quote from Ricter:

"My personal position, at the moment, is that the arguments for GW over the last 50 years are compelling"
On account of the ice melting and all? ; )

On account of temperature measurements. The most reliable being those of ocean temperature at various depths.

So melting ice is just secondary evidence of warming?

Yes just like it was the last dozens of times it's melted.

No, the ice melting in the Artic is evidence of changes in the axial tilt of the earth that goes in a 38 year short-term cycle. Ever notice that both the sea and land ice are INCREASING in the Antarctic.

So the axial tilt is causing the warming. Which "implies" there IS warming.

We've been through the Antarctic bit, the ice is not increasing there.

Yes, as outlined by articles, raw data, photos and all the other evidence - ice is INCREASING in the Antarctic. You may deny it - but that simply makes you a climate truth denier.

There is no man-made global warming. The earth goes through natural periods of warming and cooling - as it has for thousands of years.

You may deny that Antarctic ice is decreasing, but that simply makes you a climate truth denier.

But there is warming, which is why I made the reply that I did to piezoe. Melting ice makes a fairly "compelling" case of its own. ; )

Quote from piezoe:

I'm not trying to be friends, though that is nice. I'm pleading for reason and restraint in regard to this issue. Let's let science and observation decide this issue, not politics and hubris. By the way some folks here hate me. Leapup hates me because I kidded about the possibility that Jesus was gay, (I do believe it is a distinct possibility based on the Bible's account of him, assuming there was a Jesus, but how would I know?); and zdreg is convinced I am an evil communist. I find all of this highly entertaining and enjoy bantering with all of you during otherwise dull periods.

that you are a communist is obvious. whether you are an evil communist let's leave it for another day.

Despite the temp readings and lack of continued warming?

Take an ice cube out of the freezer. It takes time to melt. Put the water back in the freezer. It takes time to freeze again.
