    climate change is a myth? interesting. the earth makes oil? interesting. are you a scientist?


    Sort of. Think for yourself don't believe everything you hear. The climate change thing is just a way to scare people into voting for some moron. It's a conspirisy theory like the grassy knoll.

    I do think for myself, thanks. how can you be "sort of" a scientist? do you know what a fossil fuel is?

    So what? its 85 degree F here and humid. Do people really still say this stuff to make themselves feel better about how we abused our planet in the past?

    What makes you think that there is any less oil now than there was 100 years ago? Because it is being used? Nobody knows where it comes from it's all speculation.

    Ok, I admit, Im no scientist. But you can google this all day long…and I’d just be slightly more willing to believe the majority of scientists than this idea of yours, (although I have heard theories like this…no offense, it sure is creative, a Swarzeneggar movie indeed!):

    ...I think the Earth makes oil from within. My theory is just as plausible as any that you believe. Think about it...plate tectonics moves the stuff on the surface to the inside of the planet. I think all this carbon on the surface gets cooked by the hot interior and produces gas, coal, and oil. So it is impossible to use it all up.

    But neither theory is perfect. Your theory has just as many holes and could be wrong. Would you rather be prepared for it, or one day just go: “oh shit, we’re out of oil..”
    While our forests are dwindling and our oceans are suffering…
    YES, some resources are finite, some damage irreparable.

    So here’s what a quick google seach told me…from BP nonetheless…who relies on oil:

    We’ve got 40 years to figure something out.

    Yeah. The accepted theory is that oil came from dead dinosaurs. I think that is ridiculous. The dinosaur thing is just a theory; nobody knows where oil comes from or exactly what it is. So my theory is just as plausible. But if you believe my theory there is nothing to be afraid of and that is bad news for politicians.

    What is a scientist in your eyes? Someone who got a degree from some expensive college? These assholes think they are the smartest people in the world and spout off their bullshit and if you don’t believe them you are stupid. Exactly the same as the morons on tv who never shut up about politics. We are supposed to believe everything they say. Well I say fuck ‘em And think for myself.

    The "scientists" have been telling us for years that we are almost out of oil. Then gigantic bubbles are discovered.

    well, a scientist is, yes, someone who got a degree from a college in, um, you know, them pesky sciences. What are you basing your ideas on (that fossil fuels is ridiculous, or that oil is produced within the earth naturally through tectonic movement) ? do you have a source, or was this dreamed up after filling up the bong and too much taco bell?

    scientists have research and studies to back up their theories. just making one up and saying it's just as plausible is not correct.

    and why would the politicians have to fear limitless amounts of oil exactly? then they'd have to find another reason to start wars to keep the economy going and the poor employed?

    Basically, what I get from you is that we're the scientists and oil could come from salt water taffy and we have nothing to worry about.

    Why are you so angry about scientists? Some, quite a few are very respected and work hard to explore the reasons for things in our world. Some of them spend lifetimes out there searching for truths outside of google...And PS - the theory is not simply oil from dead dinosaurs.

    How the hell did we go from "the purpose of the USA" to "there's no such thing as global warming and all of our resources are infinite anyways? wow.

    I'm not mad at sceintists I just don't accept everything they say as fact.

    I did dream up the tectonics idea and there is no way of proving the fossil fuel idea. It's called fossil fuel because that's what they call it. That doesn't make it true.

    I decided a long time ago that people say things for a lot of reasons and some times the reasons are for their own benefit. Sometimes they are right and sometimes they are wrong.

    Do you really think that all the sceintists right now are exactly right? That what people thought forever and they are continuosly proven wrong.

    I don't think this at all. But, I do think scientists know where oil comes from, and I do think they are correct in labeling it a finite resource.

    When you factor in wordage and the spelling... these post are freaking hilarious.

    And kind of scary too. Like, seriously?

    obviously not, but I have reasons to believe or disbelieve. I don't just outright disbelieve something because I wear a tin foil hat to bed.

    Back to the OP, which is the USA does more than your average country to help the weak, poor and oppressed. China is rich, you see them coming over to help Haiti? You see them going to help others like we do? NOPE! We are the most charitable and generous PEOPLE by far. Im not talking about our govt. spending! Im talking about the hearts of our people!
    Theres no time like the present

    A man that stands for nothing....will fall for anything!

    All people need to do more on every level!

    Australia, Ireland, Canada, and New Zealand. In that order.

    Lets take a look at what our private sector gave Haiti! Lets look their first! That is our people, not our govt., giving in a way that was on their own watch! Go ahead.....lol check and see! Ill go look and lets see what we come up with.

    Also, lets look at Japan's tsunami. ......then, lets look at Africa.....and see how much our private sector and our people give. I challenge you that!
