It wasn't created by man. Do we not have any right to try to try to stop it from happening, or cure those who are sick with it?
Excellent points Wondering! Glad to have you aboard.

The point of my debating this with you is that the point is not saving the earth. The point is saving man. You just stated this above, so on that point we agree.

Next question. If it proves that man will not be killed off, or suffer any worse than he does today, if the global temerature were to go up say 5 degrees. Then what would be the point of stopping global warming? If we can survive it, then why stop it?

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.
