I’m afraid it is such a comment. HN is over-provisioned with “just asking questions” climate skeptics who use these points.
Your objections and hypotheticals are generic and do not reckon with what we do know about the specific problem of climate change.
And note, despite saying you aren’t trying to question the science, the last paragraphs in your original do just that (“the financial survival instinct for them exists”).
- logicalmonster 4y agoWhat is it to you if somebody questions the natural world? That's the key step of scientific inquiry. I don't think we have much else to talk about here as you're trying to focus on the specifics of climate change and I've told you that my comment was for a different purpose: backing up the other person's comment that a lot of appeals to science felt like a religious belief. But for what it's worth, your objections to my comments have only reinforced my opinion because your objection seems to take the form of religious offense, even taking offense at somebody daring to ask questions that express the littlest doubt or questioning the moral purity of your sect's leaders.
