My Friends,

Dean has again managed to get us on to discussing the nothingness philosophy, otherwise known as dualism, the great void, or the world of oneness with no dualism that we know nothing about.

I just rejected two of his posts because he violated two rules.

Talking about dualism, is off subject unless I bring it up and becomes too much of a distraction to allow it to become a main subject.

As I have said dozens of times this subject has been run into the ground and many are tired of rehashing it. After a million words or so there has not been one shred of additional light thrown on the subject by zealots. Some are driven to promote this like born-againers do the blood of Jesus.

Members are limited to two off topic posts. We can control this among those on moderation, but those not moderated will have to moderate themselves here.

I'm sure Dean will accuse me of acting like the beast here, even though this has nothing to do with such a thing so I have placed his rejected posts on the web.

This way the boring doctrine will not clutter up this site but the three of you who wish to read about it can go to:

Global Warming Enlightenment: A Gallup poll found that only 17 percent of the members of the Meteorological Society and the American Geophysical Society think that the warming of the 20th century has been a result of greenhouse gas emissions - principally CO2 from burning fossil fuels.

Only 13 percent of the scientists responding to a survey conducted by the environmental organization Greenpeace believe catastrophic climate change will result from continuing current patterns of energy use.
More than 100 noted scientists, including the former president of the National Academy of Sciences, signed a letter declaring that costly actions to reduce greenhouse gases are not justified by the best available evidence.

While atmospheric carbon dioxide has increased by 28 percent over the past 150 years, human-generated carbon dioxide could have played only a small part in any warming, since most of the warming occurred prior to 1940 - before most human-caused carbon dioxide emissions.
