JFC, I had no idea they said 1,000 prayers during all of these inaugural ceremonies.

I'm usually incredibly accepting of all religious people, but that got pretty annoying. I half expected them to break into some ritual dance and then sacrifice a child.

...and this is coming from someone who lives in the middle east!

I know that it's not as simple as the rich taking money from the poor by tax evasions, higher bonuses/wages and what have you, but it's staggering just imagining that only 8 people can buy half of the world.

The difference is our government tries to pass itself off as secular.

There is no climate change like the way they are tying to paint it. 

If you look at history, we are actually going back to normal as weather was warmer. I mean Greenland existed before as a country with less ice. The earth cool down, and let's not forget that vast voyages that existed way back with people like the Vikings. 

To me history says that back then the planet was much warmer then what it is today.

Though all the scientific evidence proves differently.

It has probably been removed from the website because Trumps two biggest election donors were coal companies

Good philosophy that Robin Hood. ''Kill the Eight'' has a nice ring to it

You do know that Scientific data doesn't exist for 1,000 years ago and such. 

We can only go by history books and such. 

Of course if you don't believe in history then that's something else. 

But scientific data of weather is a recent phenomena of last few 100 years.

Islamic scholars were embroiled in scientific and mathematical research over 1000 years ago, but yes it is just through books as is Christianity. Just a random book. The difference is science can be proved, unlike religious mumbo jumbo.

As far as climate change it has been scientifically studies via geology, fossils, spores, micro fossils etc going back millions of years

And what conclusion have they come? Was the planet cooler? Warmer and such? 

 

But I will share this article from the Guardian about weather records:

Why do weather records only begin in 1914?

actually, they didn't. While the Met Office seems keen on saying "since records began in 1914" to describe any kind of record-busting weather (such as 2007's "wettest summer"), it has records that go back much further.

The England and Wales Precipitation series, which measures rainfall and snow, goes back to 1766, and the Central England Temperature series, which covers the temperature from the south Midlands to Lancashire, is the longest-running record in the world, dating from 1659.

"They were kept on a personal basis by amateur meteorologists," says Sancha Lancaster, a spokeswoman for the Met Office. "We have an archive here of thousands of people's weather diaries. Many don't just record the weather, they also record the effects on wildlife and plants. It takes years to quality-control them and put the data on to a computer."

Statisticians work out whether the entries are reliable, which is why the record going back to 1914 - when observation stations became more uniform in the way they collected data - is almost always the one used. The Met Office says this is the only reliable one (and it gives a picture of the UK as a whole).

But if records go back less than 100 years, can we really set much store by so-called freak events such as the floods this summer? The fact that we do irritates Philip Eden, a weather historian. "Saying it is 'unprecedented' allows the people who look after our infrastructure a ready-made excuse for not being able to deal with [extreme weather]. It is not unprecedented."

Eden uses records going back to 1727 and says there have been 15 summers wetter than this one. "The 16th wettest summer on record doesn't make such a good headline, does it?"

Last year was the hottest on record on earth since records began. and it has been getting warmer since records began

Now you may just believe its a coincidence that the Orange Murder Clown decided to remove all references of climate change and global warming from the White House website because his two biggest campaign donors were fossil fuel companies. Personally, I don't.

"Since records began". 

Again there's no records for what happen 1,000 years. We just need to go by history books.

Like I have already explained to you temperatures can be examined through geology, fossils, spores, going back millions of years

And what proof you came to?

Was the planet hotter? Cooler? 

Was Greenland actually green back 1,000 years before freezing? etc etc
