Dan Peterson Hypocritical??? Yep!
http://www.patheos.com/blogs/danpeterso ... ously.html
If scientific consensus is worth taking seriously, then why doesn't Peterson and other apologists do so with Book of Mormon DNA studies, Book of Abraham Egyptological refutations, and lack of prophecy fulfillment history? If Peterson is to convince anyone that scientific consensus is worth taking seriously, then stop talking and start showing us you are DOING so.
Yes the article is on Global Warming and the difficulty of achieving consensus. But the end of the article I would propose for all issues in Mormonism
" but if history is any guide, the smart money is on the more science-based view that replaced it." If Peterson posted the article does he agree with this? If so, he cannot remain Mormon, at least as I see it. I certainly can't, at least intellectually. Science has more than less refuted the Book of Mormon, the Book of Abraham, the Bible, Joseph Smith a real prophet......what's left?

Re: Dan Peterson Hypocritical??? Yep!
The mistake that Dan Peterson makes is that "scientific opinion" is NOT always true, honest, or reliable—Global Warming itself being a case in point. Watch this video of a critical assessment of Global Warming given by a scientist before a sceptical and questioning Senate Committee:

And by the way, I just added another video to my previous post, and will add more as I find them.
The bottom line is that you can manipulate "science" for your own illegitimate ends; be it to "prove" Global Warming, or to "falsify" the Book of Mormon.

Troll!! It is obvious that you didn't go to a university. That is not the way to do research, only uneducated trolls get their information from youtube videos.
Mr. Easterbrook is an imbecile, he said that ”CO2 cannot possibly cause global warming". Even IPCC skeptics like Dr. Lindzen think guys like Easterbrook are full of crap.
How many papers published in respected journals did Easterbrook write about climate change? Tell me.

However, apologists claim that the experts are not experts in Mormon studies.
