    If you're caught in Canada saying something contrary to leftist beliefs, you can be arrested for hate speech. That is why SalesServiceGuy can't articulate any thought. Because Big Brother is on his back. No one there is ALLOWED to think.
    LOL!!!! I truly hope you don't believe that. It would only go to prove you believe everything you read on your right wing websites. That would be quite sad.

    In Oregon:

    72% of the population believe global warming is happening (+2% above the national average)
    54% believe global warming is from human activities (+1% above the national average)
    53% believe most scientists claims that global warming is happening (+4% above the national average)
    71% trust climate scientists about global warming (+0% above the national average)

    I remember hearing several years ago that Catholic priests were no longer allowed to preach against homosexuality. I didn't pay too much attention at the time. But apparently, this now extends to islam.

    And just what does any of that have to do with talking about climate change?
    Plus, you do realise a "motion" isn't a law. It is simply a suggestion and not enforceable.

    Anytime the government can find a reason to control the behavior of its people they will. This is called power. While governments have the power to control people, people don't have the power to control the climate. However, if a government can make its people believe they can control the climate by giving up certain freedoms and handing them over to the government, they most certainly will. In the opinion of a big government, climate change will always be real in the name of control and more power (whether man made climate change is real or not). I've always wondered what caused the climate to change before man? The sun rises and sets everyday like clockwork. The seasons change consistently ever year. We can predict eclipses before they happen. We are in a world that was created by a creator, not by chance. To think we have control over the climate is like saying we can control the rotation of the earth.

    50 years ago when I was in elementary school, Science taught us that the earth's orbit around the sun brought us closer to it. Back then, the worry was that eventually, the earth would get close enough to actually burn up. Common sense tells you that if this is indeed true, global warming has been in play since the beginning of time. Still, it must be something we are doing. Aerosol sprays...Freon...we may not know how we are doing it but it must be our fault!

    Astronomers believe the distance between the earth and sun is actually increasing by about 15mm every year. Not enough to worry about but apparently measurable.

    A little something to think about...

    Newsweek and others telling us about the upcoming ice age...

    https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/ju...ed-new-ice-age

    Newsweek on the cooling world

    All the science is settled (man is responsible for "climate change") folks are trying to mitigate this and other articles....But the fact remains...This was at that time the latest news.

    If I understood right, the distance is calculable but not measurable.

    If that were true, I wonder if we'd get far away enough from the sun to compensate for the growth when it reaches the red giant stage.
