I'd lay odds he believes the earth is only 6,000 years old. The bible also indirectly supports a flat earth but those passages have become "figurative" while the Garden of Eden story is still a matter of recorded fact.

Yeah right, like the "truth" of Darwinian evolution or the plain old "can't you idiots see my religious belief in global warming is the Henny Penny truth!" The sky is warming! The sky is warming! SQUAWK.................................
an entertaining description. However, one can glaciers melting and ice floes breaking off. awe inspiring. Not without some probative value on the issue. what is knee jerk religion based is the "if a politician is against global warming, get him out of office, he is pro tree hugger and anti business".

sure is. Know any area of our life that is NOT? I'd trust a scientist over a life insurance salesman or a minister though. Most scientists discuss methods and financial ties. Ministers don't. Investment counselors sure don't.

tobacco scientists? You should see sugar scientists. Heck, one man wrote an expose on sugar and a sugar company lawyer bought all the copies and even bought the copper printing plates and burned them. talk about suppression of evidence.

Totally believe it. I've said here many times
that I gave up sugar in 1973 and never looked
back. The stuff is insidious. Zero nutrition and
it's in everything. I cook everything from scratch,
no processed food. Sugar is destroying humanity,
its far worse that tobacco. My daughter in law
was laughing today about how her and the two
toddler grandkids destroyed a bag of orange
pumpkin shaped candy. Pure sugar, pure carbs,
purely deadly. I could warn her she'd laugh and
say, I know, I know, but the kids love it so much.

Good grief. My sisters son lost his leg at 30 to
a sugar addiction and diabetes. And he still eats
the stuff because he shoots the 'cure' into his
arm twice a day. Moron.

I'm not arguing scientific theory. You are free to believe whatever you want. What I was pointing out is the fact that you go with the current scientific paradigm or you don't get funded. Just like religion, you must tow the line or you're out.

Not sure I totally understand your post. You may have left out a word or three, at any rate global warming is BIG business, HUGE business. Haven't you seen those big windmills popping up everywhere.

Meaning the passages describing the Earth as flat have become untenable even past the ability of a, literal, moron with three working neurons to rationalize, but belief in other Biblical nonsense hasn't quite gotten there yet?

I don't understand where you are coming from.
Don't get Funded and its like a religion?????????????

My father was a scientist
A geologist.
He worked for the state geological survey
Their job as scientists is the map the whole underground of the state.
Any construction proposed, you get the maps created by the scientists to check what is deep underground.
No politics, just honest state geological surveys by scientists.
There is no line to tow to get funded. There is no politics involved. Its a state scientific service provided to the tax payers
You do honest scientific research and submit the maps to the State so they can determine is a construction project is ok

There was no religion in my house growing up.
My father believed in science.
