The point about a scientific theory is that you test it and if its predictions do not agree with the observed facts - it's wrong. No ifs or buts. Back to the drawing board. At least that should be the approach.

What do we see in climatology?
"The IPCC have produced 102 climate models to predict our future climate. The world’s meteorological organizations use weather models to forecast and predict weather and have been for many years. They have proved to be very accurate over 4 days and reasonably accurate over a week. The IPCC’s climate models are notoriously inaccurate. We’ve had these models now for some 30 years and we now have 30 years of data to compare them against. They are not even close to accurate."
Facts trumped by theory? Looks like it these days!

- EGreg 10y agoAs ever, activists take over institutions by pushing an ideology or agenda. And then when people try to inquire about the holes and bring up facts, they start personal attacks and bullying, while providing very little in on-point substantive answers. "Troll", "Racist", "Creationist", "Climate change denier". So much easier than just engaging with the substance and proving people wrong with facts, answering questions, admitting when we don't know and being intellectually honest. Reasonable people are open to being proven wrong. But throwing an epithet while providing inadequate answers does the opposite. "Oh, I'm a troll? Ok I changed my mind I am convinced! Thanks!" That's not how it works. You're covering up your own lack of knowledge with emotion.
