Heat convinces Robertson of global warming

I think it could just be a hot age, too. I mean, how do we know that our livable temperatures are only at the fair middle of Earth's cycle?

Plus, with all the evidence of a great flood in almost every ancient civilization...how would the melting of all ice in the world count for a great flood???

Uh... you know that dinosaurs are mentioned and described in the bible right?

Just thought you should know.

Care to point out any specific passages?

And Jesus sent him to Scotland where he lived in a Loch for oh so many years, inviting thousands of American tourists to bring their fat fucking families and their fat dollar bills. And O Scotland did praise the Lord. Thank you, Lord."

Behemoth has the following attributes according to Job 40:15-24


It â??eats grass like an ox.â?�
It â??moves his tail like a cedar.â?� (In Hebrew, this literally reads, â??he lets hang his tail like a cedar.â?�)
Its â??bones are like beams of bronze,
His ribs like bars of iron.â?�
â??He is the first of the ways of God.â?�
â??He lies under the lotus trees,
In a covert of reeds and marsh.â?�

Leviathan has the following attributes according to Job chapter 41, Psalm 104:25,26 and Isaiah 27:1. This is only a partial listingâ??just enough to make the point.


â??No one is so fierce that he would dare stir him up.â?�
â??Who can open the doors of his face, with his terrible teeth all around?â?�
â??His rows of scales are his pride, shut up tightly as with a seal; one is so near another that no air can come between them; they are joined one to another, they stick together and cannot be parted.â?�

That bill hicks quote made me laugh pretty hard though. Even though no one thinks dinosaurs where alive at the same time as jesus.

I am not thoroughly convinced of the global warming theory, but I'm mostly convinced. In any case, if the theory holds true, the effects are so disasterous that in this case perhaps it's better to err on the side of caution than to just hope the theory proves to be false and kiss our asses goodbye if we're wrong.

Who do we think we are, that we can change the earth. Valcanos put more pollution into the air in one episode than humans do in a hunded years.

Ummm... last time I looked valcanos only blew out naturally occurring chemicals. Also volcano erruptions tend to cool the earth, not heat it.

And how are you so sure they are referring to dinosaurs and not just any vicious creature? When I read this description I thought it sounded a lot like a crocodile, and then I read up on it and found out most Biblical scholars actually think this refers to the Nile crocodile, and not to any dinosaur.

We're talking about creatures which went extinct long before the first humans (yes it's true, dinosaurs and cavemen DID NOT exist together like in the Flintstones—find me one example of dinosaur fossils and human fossils in the same geological layer if I'm wrong). How is it that the writers of the Bible would come to know about animals that died off 65 million years ago?

Car emissions are naturally occuring chemicals. Volcanoes blow out copius amounts of carbon monoxide and dioxide and tons of shit that factories put out.
