Manmade Global Warming and Mormonism

Post by _antishock8 »

Now that the notion of manmade global warming is being shown to be a hoax perpetuated by Leftist Socialists, what are Mormon opinons of the manmade Global Warming hoax?

I tend to think Mormons are a little more pragmatic, and in some cases skeptical when it comes to claims being made outside the Church. Is this the case?

I don't know about Mormons, but I wouldn't say it's been shown that manmade global warming is a hoax. I'm not sure it can really be proven one way or the other.

You might say I'm a global warming agnostic.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

I think that if I wanted to read a bunch of reactionary political tripe, I'd be reading a different message board.

Holmes, there are a dozen political threads with multiple pages on this message board. And you're still reading this message board. What you just posted doesn't make any sense.

Yup, and this applies to them as well (although most are in the off-topic forum where they belong).

Less and less as the days go by. This is just one of the many reasons.

Ass.

This Mormon accepts, as science does, that there is global warming but not as much as the left makes it out to be and is very skeptical of the claims that humans cause the majority of it.

Non left wing Mormons do tend to be a little more pragmatic and educated except when it comes to multi-level marketing schemes.

I think there's been a general cooling trend over the last two to three years. I'm surprised so many people, to include the Mormons that post on this site, have bought off on the notion that humans contribute in any significant manner to global warming. They idea that human Carbon output, at something like .000068% to the carbon totality of our atmosphere is contributing to global warming is seriously misguided.

I hate that Leftists use Global Warming as a cause to implement their political ideology. I think that Mormons, who tend to be Conservative, are resistant to that kind of brainwashing... Hrm, I wonder if the Church endorsed Manmade Global Warming if they'd be more open to it...
